You mean Sothorys? to be honest, i do not see any thread there.
Sure,there is abadonned Valyrian city of fleshsmiths there,but you have only chimeras there.And black ruins,where people who try to live there vanish,but it was never dangerous to anybody who lived elsywhere.
So,i do not see any dangers there.
When in Essos we have Kadath,Stygoi and Cardossa,all places full of eldricht abominations.They are possible danger,not some Sothorys ruins.
Speaking about dangers - drowned god could be some Chaos demon here.
That aside - absorbing all units seems good on paper,but they were better in their provinces.The same goes for absorbing Church - nothing good come to protestants,when they did so,becouse they get another beaurocrats instead of priests.
P.S who rebuild leylines ? either cathay dragons,or...Elves ! author,you could introduce elves now !
ASOIAF magic and mystic lore is all about blood sacrifice ritual with eldritch entity. Sure the common man can live a 'normal' medieval life but beyond the scene you got a century old guy puppeting the world from a ablood sucking tree, cult of face stealing assassin, cthullu entity in the deep water, some kind of fire god asking for sacrifice in order to grant some wish, drug-sorcerer cult, a thousands year civilization destroyed in 1 night and the place where it happened still cursed more than 400 years after said event. You also have the north with the others, Ashaï and the shadow lands with supposed demon and feeling of 'wrongness' (no idea what happened there but imo it was some kind of horrible ritual, the kind Book Euron want to recreate), the meister who could be some kind of secret illuminaty cult (not confirmed but they are fishy). All that make ASOIAF a grimdark world imo, i wouldn't feel safe living there.
