Just recently finished Season 5. A few questions for the brehs

What was the point of sacrificing Shireen if Stannis hadn't become a king yet?

Why did Melisandre want to use Jon's blood if Ned was never a king?

Mel thinks Stannis is Azor Ahai, or the Prince that was Promised, reborn. Well, the original Azor Ahai sacrificed his wife and then got a magical burning sword that helped him win the war with the others. I think she felt that Stannis needed to truly sacrifice something for him to truly reach his potential. With Stannis and his camp snowed in and about to die of cold/starvation, she figured now was the perfect time do to it.

As far as your other question, keep watching. I will say that the Starks used to be Kings in the North before the Targs came to Westeros, so technically Jon would have royal blood in him.

Stannis was the rightful king. Once Robert died. He should've been king according to the laws of men. He was usurped by his younger brother and the other false kings including the illegitimate products of incest.

it's a damn shame :smh:

:camby: Nah, fukk Stannis. Some of that shyt is his own fault and he's indirectly responsible for Ned's demise. Dude got salty when Ned was chosen to be King's Hand and ran home. When Ned was in KL trying to do the right thing, he laid in the cut and didn't aeven try to hit the nikka up to warn him about what was up. Stannis was the first to realize the kids weren't Robert's, him and Jon Arryn investigated that shyt but where the nikka at when Ned was trying to put him on the throne? :beli:

:what:

Your squad is about to realize that your fearless leader is actually only 2nd in line to the Iron Throne, behind the Stark King In The North

In what way are you proud of that:pachaha:
Rickon is too preoccupied to be king by the way. :troll: You spent the last 3 years hyping him up.
