It has to be Jon snow, read somewhere he married dany. Littlefinger will be killed by Arya. Jon will ride one of the dragons. The other got killed by the Night King and he now rides him. Bran will expose Jons true lineage and birth place. The final battle between the living and the dead should be in the last season 8.

and nobody is considering Gendry, robert baratheon's bastard as a candidate for the iron throne? Somehow d producers are still keeping him in d loop, he keeps on making appearances in some episodes,.
Not a chance for the iron throne! Lord of storms end, possible!

If lyana did marry rhaegar secretely and varys confirms it, then jons claim will be stronger than hers and i think she will concede the throne willingly to a true blood tagaryean male rather than keeping it for herself as apparently she is barren, she will choose to be his queen! Then choose a consort/second queen for him to continue the tagaryean lineage with, my pick would be sansa stark!
Why would Varys confirm it ? He is an Aegon supporter.

Until Ned Stark's arrival at the Tower of Joy, ONLY the 3 kingsguards with Rhaegar knew of Jon Snow's parentage, and they never lived to tell anyone. If Varys had known, he would have done a lot more than just watch Ned Stark gallivant off to Winterfell and raise the heir to the Iron Throne as a bast@rd for the next 17 years. Compare with how he kept tabs on Viserys and Daenerys across the Narrow Sea (and even actively nurtured "Young Griff" through Connington in the books).

The thing is, the master of whispers doesn't know everything. For instance, here are 3 past things he didn't know until they were no longer secrets: Daenerys Targaryen hatched 3 dragons, Tywin Lannister's Red Wedding scheme, and Sansa's whereabouts after she disappeared from Kings Landing. And here are a few more things he still doesn't know up till now: the white walkers are real, a true-born male Stark still lives, the whereabouts of Arya Stark, Jaime Lannister re-learning to fight with his left hand, Stannis Baratheon killed his brother...
I agree Varys doesn't know everything, but with what he knows, he makes you think that he does. Sometimes he knows, but he only let's it slip in full detail or partially, depends on if he thinks it will further his plans. What plans ? To put their(Illyrio and Varys) candidate on the throne. He's an end justifies the means type of character, who thinks his own vision of an end will be the best for everyone else. Varys does know Sansa's whereabouts though. He has spies in the Eerie; Ser Shadrich the Mad Mouse, who even appears in the TWOW excerpt Alayne, the other is Ser Illifer the Pennyless, their both there right now trying to kidnap her.

No, he is a targayrean partisan!

Aegon would have the strongest claim in the books, jon in the movies, so yes, varys would confirm it in the movies or try to reconcile it to be all inclusive by mergin his cause with that of dannys seeing as he has always had a hand in every targayrean plot from viserys to danny to aegon!
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Nobody: 7:33pm On Mar 24, 2017
For season 7, I'm most excited for Arya (who to kill next?), Bran (What do I do with my new powers?), Varys (Lets see how this web I'm spinning connects) and the dynaism between Sansa and Littlefinger.

Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by LeSulk(m): 10:29pm On Mar 26, 2017
Though Lord Varys is a major player,what he confirms or doesn't confirm is nobody's business.He is just a 'titular' Lord (i.e has no land or castle).Also he's not a Westerosi.Aegon VI will be better confirmed by Jon Connington who was once a Hand,Lord and friend to the mighty Prince Rhaegar Targaryen.

For any of these Targs to really have a foothold in Westeros, they need to have some of the major houses supporting them.Varys himself suggested the same in s06.Both in the books and show, House Martell will support anybody and everybody who is a Targaryen. I'm not too certain about House Tyrell in the books.As for the other southern Houses, Houses Tully and Baratheon have been all but decimated.That leaves House Arryn.But those guys have their heads 'high in honour' so I doubt they'll even care (except of course Baelish flexes his fingers).

The North has parted ways with the South and as already suggested,Jon is a regional character and won't concern himself with mundane things like politics.

The Iron Islanders to me seem far removed and insignificant.Yes,they can swing a naval battle in your favour,but that's that.

Gendry Waters on the throne though... grin grin grin.The only person Gendry has a better chance of seating on the Iron Throne is Hot Pie.



Btw,have you guys seen this 'Purely Show Theory' that Cersei is Gendry's mother?

Trust me,it's not as crazy as it first sounds


Cersei (to Catelyn Stark,s01) : ''I lost my first child, a dark haired beauty. They took him away from me, and I never saw him again.''


Gendry (s02/s03) : ''The only thing I know about my mother is that she had yellow hair.''

nice theory but that would contradict the prophecy about cercei not having any child for her legitimate husband and we all know the drunk king is gendry's father

Same way I see it too, however I think Danny would die from the childbirth. Which would make Jon the king and his son "the stallion that mounts the world".

Or Jon dies and Dany will reign. But am convinced both of them will not live to the end of that series, one of the two is surely going to die.

What we are needing confirmation of from varys is the probability of rhaegar marrying lyanna secretly making Jon legally a targayrean with a stronger claim on the iron throne than daenerys at least according to westerosi laws and not just a bastard with the surname fire instead of snow. Showise at least. It is his testimony and not his authority if any that we are ruminating on. Catch my drift? grin

I agree with you,Varys seems like the only person in Westeros who can confirm Rhægar married Lyanna.Even at that I don't think when left to choice, the Westerosi will have a harder time picking a bastard than a true Targ especially one with three dragons (OMG,I'm starting to sound like Littlefinger). But sometimes I kinda feel sorry for Jon.Whether as a Fyre or a Snow,he's still a bastard grin.At least, he's not a bastard Frey.
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Nobody: 11:31pm On Mar 29, 2017
I dunno why Everyone seems set and convinced that Dany and Jon will wed....







I see Bran flying a dragon in this season 7. Remember the raven said "I can teach you how to fly"huh

How about Bran ? Where's this Fyre coming from ?

Bran is the rightful Lord of Winterfell so of course his testimony should be respected.However,this is Westeros we are talking about-cripples,bastards and broken things are not respected no matter their family status except they make a name for themselves (e.g Jon,Tyrion,Ramsay,SweetRobin).

What I'm tryna say is that,before any Lord will listen to Bran he has to have more reputation than being an extension of a weirwood tree.

Am not sure what you mean by the Fyre stuff.But Jon is actually a Targ bastard not a Stark bastard which makes him Jon Fyre not Jon Snow (Btw,Jon Snow sounds better).

It'll be interesting though to see how Jon's true parentage will be publicly revealed both on the show and in the books.
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by LeSulk(m): 8:57pm On Mar 30, 2017
HBO just released the teaser for S07.
Queen Dany at Dragonstone.Queen Cersei on the Iron Throne.King Jon (when will I get used to this new title) at Winterfell.Why can't tomorrow be July 16th?

It should be Jon Waters, Snow is a bastard name in the North, if Jon's father is a Targaryen from the Crown Lands, then it should be Waters. So why Varys and not Bran, he's referred to as the Spider behind his back, why should anyone believe him, without thinking he has some hidden plans ? Varys has his own candidate for the throne and that's about it, he doesn't need Jon, and he won't be revealing anything (if he knows about Jon). I still don't get why his parentage should be revealed to the world. Most people in the South wouldn't believe something against their agenda, let alone be ruled by it. The reveal will only be important to Jon and Jon alone, it will help him decide.
Can't he still be the hero without a name ?

You've voiced my exact thoughts.Varys won't care to reveal,even if he did he doesn't have enough reputation to force Jon on the Westerosi especially when he has his own candidate(s)/agenda.I feel Jon has no interest in any other thing but 'the Great War' if he is indifferent when his true parentage is revealed to him

I thought Targ bastards differ from Crownlands bastards.Damn Dæmon BlackFyre for misleading me.This bastard surname customs is kinda complex.
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by LeSulk(m): 12:50pm On Mar 31, 2017
I had to wiki it

"Each of the nine constituent regions of the Seven Kingdoms have bastard surnames decreed by custom, not law. Bastards with a high-born parent are given these surnames to hold them apart from their parent's houses. The parents may give a bastard a different surname if they wish, e.g Tyrion Tanner , or no name at all.

Bastard children of two people of the smallfolk are not given a distinctive surname. A bastard might also chose a surname for himself. Daemon Waters took the surname Blackfyre at the age of twelve, after having been knighted and having received lands and the Valyrian steel sword of the same name from his father, King Aegon IV Targaryen.

The surname a bastard received appears to be connected to the location the child is raised, though this is not a consistent rule. Because of this, bastards who are half-siblings might have different surnames. For example, King Robert I Baratheon 's eldest bastard, born and raised in the Vale, is called Mya Stone, while his bastard from the stormlands (fathered on a noblewoman from the Reach ) is called Edric Storm. However, whilst Aegor Rivers was raised at Stone Hedge in the riverlands , his half-brother Brynden was also called Rivers , despite having lived at least the first few years of his life with his mother at
King's Landing in the crownlands . Prince Oberyn Martell's eight bastard daughters all have the surname Sand, even though the eldest, Obara , lived in Oldtown in the Reach during the earlier years of her life, and her sister Nymeria was born in Volantis, across the narrow sea."
