A Song of Ice & Fire by George R.R. Martin: Book Discussion Thread

[beanz]

interesting little thing i caught.

this is from jojen and meera oath of loyalty to bran when they first came to visit him

"Hearth and heart and harvest we yield up to you, my lord. Our swords and spears and arrows are yours to command. Grant mercy to our weak, help to our helpless, and justice to all, and we shall never fail you." "I swear it by earth and water," said the boy in green. "I swear it by bronze and iron,” his sister said. “We swear it by ice and fire,” they finished together.

i guess all the reeds are aware of the stark-targaryen connection.

so who do you guys think GRRM will have win it all in the end?

What do you mean by win? As in winning the Iron Throne?

It's too hard to tell at this point imo, we really don't know too much about the Others (white walkers) yet. But I def see Stannis turning heel when the red priestess switches to Jon.

 

[yeahisaidit]

Why did I just notice that Jon protected Mance's son by sending him away just as Lyanna did by giving him to Ned?

I feel so stupid

(One of the many things I'm catching on the re-read)

Who do I think wins the Iron Throne? That's the hardest question for me mostly because I don't like the options or the guys I like for the throne most likely won't get it or maybe it's because I believe there probably won't be an Iron Throne in the end.

good point...then the latter and Daenerys get murked by Aegon; Aegon gets exposed; Jon's parentage gets exposed by Howland Reed and that would make Varys back off. Jon pardons everyone. Unify the kingdom along with the wildings to fight the white walkers. the end.

you mean having an analytical discussion counts as spoiling?

guess I'll just go back to this

 

[beanz]

i would love it if stannis learned the truth about jon and just accepted it. doubt it tho. stannis bending the knee would be the most out of character shyt of all time. even if the lord of light himself came down and told stannis to be jon's general cause jon is azor azai, stannis would be like nah fukk THAT!

Dany isn't barren anymore. She was bleeding right before her and Drogon ran into the Khalassar in ADWD.
