oluamid:depends... Are we talking about the books or the show? I think the show messed up the characters to a large extent. Whatever the case, no one deserves to be slaughtered by his host after eating under his roof. Even Tywin would not have done that himself. For me, Robb's death was even less deserved in the books than in the show. He was silly in the show. Silly romantic walks in the woods, dating and damning everyone. A deliberate well-thought-out slight. To add insult to injury, he took his wife to the wedding. To me, that's provocation. I still hate the Freys everywhere though, even if a bit less in the HBO remix. |

Whatever the case, no one deserves to be slaughtered by his host after eating under his roof. Even Tywin would not have done that himself. I'm talking based on the books. The "yeye wife" thingy was an after-thought. I still don't feel any remorse for Rob's death. I'm only against the manner it was carried out and those who fell victim of the consequences of his action. The Stark are honourable people and Eddard Stark wouldn't have been pleased. I'v already outlined what I think from the Frey perspective so no need to repeat it. 1 Like |

oluamid:I read your posts and they do not justify the Freys. Walder Frey is simply a low-life full of resentment. Robb chose a path of honour too, just the not-so-important one. He slept with Jeyne when she nursed his wound, and he didn't want to sire a bastard. If Robb Stark deserved to die simply for not marrying the Frey girl, Catelyn deserved it even more. She started the war by abducting Tyrion. She was the one who promised Walder Frey that her son would marry from his house. She was the one who divided Robb's army by releasing Jamie, placing her own interests above that of the whole north. She also killed a Frey at the wedding (a fool but a Frey all the same). NB: The Lyanna/Brandon theory is a loooooooong shot. 4 Likes |

Sandor Clegane is alive and well at the monastery.I actually believe this. I think George Martin used the monk as an unreliable narrator to deceive his listeners. He deceived us earlier with the death of Theon at Winterfell (Bran's POV) and that of Brienne by hanging (her own POV). If the Hound died, when did he get to tell the monk all that the monk knew about him and told Brienne? I don't see Sandor turning story teller just because he's dying. I think the monk was speaking of the Hound's death in a figurative sense. The Hound's horse Stranger is a hot-head as Arya realised. Only the Hound could have brought him to the monastery. I think the Three Eyed Crow teaching Bran is BryndenThe dude can stop thinking now. This is rather obvious, thanks to the tale of Egg and Dunk. |

zube01: The disappearing woman kept warning Danny about the perfumed seneschal...pls can sombdy enlighten us about who he is and how he betrayed her?...I also believe she has undergone the 3 betrayals? Abi m wrong sombdy throw more light about her betrayals.. There are actually a lot of theories flying around about who the perfumed seneschal is. One of them is that it is Hizdar Lozoraq the Mereneese Prince she has taken to bed and who is suspected to have tried to poison her withe poisoned locust. Another theory is that it is Victarion Greyjoy whose ship carries the image of a seneschal. Then there is Varys who we all know walks around heavily perfumed. It is assumed that in the nearest future Varys and Denearys will meet and a betrayal will take place. Last is Magister Illirio Mopatis of Pentos who is currently trying all his best to help the Queen achieve her dreams. I personal think it might be Tyrion Lannister but only time will tell. zube01: Anybdy know who the mute giant that has sworn not to talk till he avenges cercei is? I doubt if Cercei's sworn protector, Sir Robert Strong, is any other person than a mashup of Sir Gregor Clegane and some other zombie bodies. zube01: And what's varys plan by killing those people? Is he for cercei or against her?...I have so many questions buttill these ones are answered first! One thing I know for certain is that Varys has no intention to help Cersei in anyway except if that "help" will further weaken the Lannister rule. As at now, we can only assume Varys is doing all in his power to bring back the Targeryen Dynasty. |

And where do u thinkwhores go? As much as Varys is seemingly working to bring back the Targeryens I don't completely trust him. I mean, what does he stand to gain if the Targeryens come back? Change one master for another? That is why I don't put it past him to be the Perfumed Seneschal. As for Tywin, dude is so dead that he's been gone for 2 books at least. Remember the 7 days vigil by Cersei's twin (I always forget his name) and the way his body was oozing plus the rigour motis "smile"? That's definitely dead in my book. As for where whores go, I think I'll leave Tyrion to figure that one out. 1 Like |

moski5:I believe 'a game of thrones' is often exaggerated as the main theme of the whole series. It's still about ice and fire. Maybe the Others vs dragons. Maybe the Others vs the Red god. Whatever Martin chooses to make it. Melisandre thinks they are opposites, as in good vs evil. But fire and ice can be as deadly as each other, unless there is a balance. There was no balance when dragons ran riot centuries before in the dance of the dragons as narrated in the Princess and the Queen, and Westeros suffered for it. There was no balance during the long night when the Others came previously, until the Azor Ahai and his flaming sword. I see this becoming much worse than either of those. I don't think the Iron Throne or whoever sits on it would be very important at the end of the day. 1 Like |

I like the train of your thoughts.......and your signature too. Somehow, methinks the Iron throne and the whole intrigue abt it is just a sideshow not the main dish. The mere fact that gods, religion and magic is a running theme in the books is a pointer. 1 Like |

Varys... Without a doubt, one curious character. But I like him. I think he's a good man at heart. While his methods are often devious. He's been very helpful to Tyrion, Jaime, Ned, Danaerys, even kept Robert alive for a while. I have no doubt he's one of the good guys and should bring about Littlefingers end. While many don't trust him, he's about the only character who has shown unwavering loyalty to the realm. Can't wait for him to be back in TWOW. By the way, what's the arc of the Sand Snakes developing towards. I'm also curious about Princess Arianne Martell. She's about the most beautiful and smartest woman in the realm, I'm watching her keenly. Dorne has a big role to play in this... 1 Like |

judging from the excerpts I've read so far Dorne remains as cautious as ever d sand snakes r just to send correct info n work wit d Religious army if possible The second sons r in need of Tyrions wits . Victarion helped win d Battle The Bold is fighting My real annoyance with G Martins is his style of writing he doubled back twice just to show us happenings from another point of view utterly unnecessary n thereby prolonging d book n The Character Pate whom he killed in I think a Twow then introduced him as Sam's "colleague |
