Sansa should make no mistake. If she finally has two brain cells to rub together as she wants us to believe, she should know that Cersei will surely come for the North if she defeats the Dragon Queen.

Last season, they made it look as if Sansa was going to harm her sister, but in the end, they stood up for each other against Littlefinger. The show-runners might be doing the same thing here: making us feel that Sansa will harm Dany only to have her save Dany at a crucial moment.

This lady figured out the issues with the battle plan before the episode aired. "The first rule of defending a castle is to stay inside the castle"

The hype for the Night King was so much that most of us have forgotten that this is game of thrones and not game of the dead and the living.... the main villain is cersei

The book series that this tv show is based on is actually 'A Song Of Ice & Fire' . 'Game Of Thrones' is just the title of the first book in the series.

For 8 seasons they have been telling us that the war against the dead is the only war that matters. Now they expect us to care about Cersei.

I'd care about Cersei if she started attacking Dany and Jon after the Battle for the Dawn, but from the previews she's the one being attacked.

BoleAndFish:
Quite glaring now. Someone should help me with this guy's name? Very bold and ruthless character! How did he suddenly become weak only to gain little courage when he saw a little girl doing what he was scared to do?

He is terrified of fire because his brother, Gregor Clegane, who is Queen Cersei's bodyguard, burned his face with fire when they were boys.

Magnifico2000:
Is Sansa and Tyrion trying to fall in love?? I don't get that scene.

I was very pleased to see that scene because I have been shipping them for a long time.

Tyrion is intelligent but he needs a strong lady like Sansa, who is very grounded to keep him from wasting his life on whores and drunkenness.
Lady Sansa is on track to be a very successful queen/lady, but she needs a man who can keep up with her intellectually, and that man is Tyrion.

Ned Stark was an excellent ruler in the north, where honour and honesty are rewarded with loyalty. He was a terrible ruler in the south, which is ruled by liars and backstabbers. The same attributes that helped him so much in the north led to his execution in the south.

Tywin was quite competent as a leader, but he had some glaring weaknesses that ultimately destroyed everything he worked for. His irrational hatred of Tyrion - his ideal successor. His excessive cruelty to his enemies, such as in the treatment of Elia Martell, which Cersei inherited from him. His blindness to the incest that caused so many problems for him. If there was no gold in Casterly rock, I don’t think he would've gone far.

I don’t understand why some men are so insecure that they can’t handle strong female characters. Strong men are not offended by the existence of strong women. Rather, they are attracted to them, just as Tormund is attracted to Brienne, Jon is attracted to Dany, and even the despicable Euron is attracted to Cersei.

Seunpaul01:
Is nobody missing the Red Woman in this war. I felt her absence in the war build up.

yeah, I can't wait to see whether the foul creatures that she gives birth to will make a difference in the war against the Night king.

LeSulk:
She and Arya saw through his plans because of Bran (although this is implied rather than shown). Baelish is one of the cleverest on the books or show. It's a shame they gave him such a weak, meaningless death.

Book Littlefinger would have killed Bran or cooked up an excuse to leave Winterfell with the Vale army once Bran told him "chaos is a ladder".

Blockdock90:
What lots of people do not realise is that after the character Arya lost her virginity, thousands of young girls who have idolized Arya since the beginning of the show will also be eager to lose theirs in similar manner. It's basic human psychology. Humans tend to imitate the actions of people they admire and since the brains of humans can't really differentiate between a character and the actor playing the role this makes it even more likely. Hence why I'm skeptical of the intentions of the writers for including that scene and directing it the way they did.

I don't remember you complaining that thousands of girls who idolized Arya would start murdering people when Arya was murdering people.

anybody expecting Danny to relinquish her claim to the throne because of Jon is a dreamer .

Any atom of love Danny had for Jon died the moment he made that revelation.

Can any of you even give a logical reason she should relinquish her claims ? If not for misogyny that has taken over your fvcken brains.

There is no reason for Dany to see Jon as a serious threat. She knows that he is clinically honorable and would keep his promise to bend the knee even if it kills him. Also, he doesn’t have any hunger for power. He just wants to help people.

Besides that, Dany is lonely. She thought she was the last Targaryen, but now it seems that she is not alone. Why would she terminate the only family she has?

Finally, Jon and Dany are in love. If Dany wins the throne, Jon will be her king. If Jon wins the throne, Dany will be his queen. So it doesn’t really matter.

A good reason for Dany to give up the Iron throne would be so that she can go back to the free cities and rule there, where she is loved by all the slaves she freed, instead of staying in Westeros where she is only feared. However, if she plays a key role in defeating the night king, Westeros might love her just as much.

Fadedvoices2:
While I personally don’t have personal problems with women leading armies , I should say a woman should be in charge of the army only when women make up at least 30% or more of the army .

Males shouldn’t make up the military 90% then a female will be giving them orders ,that’s total bullshît.

What if the female is amazing? For example, TV Brienne defeated Loras Tyrell, Jaime Lannister, and the Hound in combat. Why can't she lead?

nani6666:
Best part of the episode was probably when Brienne was Knighted.... Great Scene

That's bitter-sweet for me because people are saying that she is likely to die in the upcoming battle since she has achieved her life's dream.

streetdisciple:
the battle plan for the Night King is too simple and easy.....they are in for a big shocker

On the other hand, they didn't disclose the information that Bran gave Tyrion. I think Tyrion will use it to develop a clever plan against the NK.

streetdisciple:
I think everyone going down to the crypt of winterfell for safety will be fvcked, because the crypt is full of dead starks and the Night King can raise the dead. Expect to see some wight rickon and wight ned unless the crypt have some magical spell on its own

It is shocking that none of the characters in the show even said anything about this. Especially Bran, who witnessed the skeleton attack below:

kay9:
The North will never accept a Lannister.

After he helps them to defeat the Night King and his sister using the information given to him by Bran, they will accept him.

All these "ships" and canoes sef... Well, whatever rocks one's boat I guess, pun totally intended.

I have to admit that Jaime x Brienne makes more sense than Tormund x Brienne, but the heart wants what it wants & mine wants the latter.

luxanne:
Did anyone see what is brewing between theon and sansa?

That won't do because the Lady of Winterfell needs heirs. Also, she needs someone who is intellectually stimulating. I want Sansa to get back with Tyrion. I think they bring out the best in each other. She will keep him grounded and he will teach her many things. They'll be unstoppable.

I'm also shipping Brienne and Tormund. His love is so pure . He didn't get jealous when Jaime got to 'knight' her. He was just happy for her.

The incestous relationship between Jon and Dany has my support. People think that Dany will turn against Jon because of his claim, but I think she will surprise us. Her original motivation was to restore Targaryens to the throne that she felt was stolen from them. She supported Viserys and Karl Drogo*, but after they died and she got three dragons, she had no choice to take the throne by herself. As we saw in Mereen, Dany doesn't really enjoy ruling. She doesn't have the patience for it. Jon Snow, on the other hand, is a great ruler. I think she will support him. The argument they had after Jon revealed his parentage was very mellow. She didn't threaten to roast him or even raise her voice. They'll be fine.

If we are Like Apes and Apes are like us,
Then is there any possibility that apes came from us
Well Humans can talk, how come Apes Can't

We didn't come from the apes that exist today, such as chimps and gorillas. We came from apes that existed a very long time ago: ancient apes. Modern apes such as chimpanzees and gorillas came from the same ancient apes. You won't ask such questions once you understand it.

Islam has no problem with its teachings for it is perfect and would continue to benefit mankind till end of time, but Muslims of today have difficulty in understanding those teachings.

What are some of the teachings that Muslims of today have difficulty in understanding?

"When people talk about slavery in the Bible and say the Bible advocates it, what do you say to them when they refuse to accept that slavery in the Bible is different from slavery centuries ago in America?" Steven Gorges

Is it different, though? Let’s see what the Bible says in Leviticus 25:44-46

1) Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves.
2) You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.
3) You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and you can make them slaves for life,

How is this better than slavery in America? The slaves of America came from foreign countries (mostly Africa) and were enslaved for life. Children born to those slaves were also enslaved for life. They were traded and passed on to children as property. So what was the difference?

barapistis:
we as Christians are able to know the true one by the reason of the spirit in us

How do you know that the spirit in you is the spirit of God and not a false spirit masquerading as the spirit of God, or just your imagination?

How do you differentiate between a person ‘masquerading as an angel of light’ and a ‘real angel of light’?

How can one gain access to such information? How did you discover this?

I heard seun was a christian here in Nairaland before he became an atheist

Nope. I was freed from religion years before I started Nairaland. The only atheists I knew about at the time were Tai Solarin and Bill Gates.

you hav to restrict your sample to post flood people.

Aaron and Moses are post-flood characters.

Jeanne Clement of France lived for 122 years and 164 days. She died in 1997 So the 120 year limit has been broken recently too.

Douglasin:
Thanks a lot Sir.
You've been really helpful. I will call them.

Were you able to get it done?

But sir, we can all speak in ‘unknown languages’. How can doing something that we can all do be a sign of anything?

I love civilized countries. I wish Nigeria could become a country where the police would be held accountable for mistreating a random street preacher.

I understand your distress, but this is our way of protecting non-Muslim Nairalanders such as yourself, and Nairaland.

It could be some kind of cobra since it raised its head. A close picture of the head will probably help with the identification.
