Jane_Lashwater Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 On a reread of the series, I noticed something in ADWD that made me laugh to myself. I don't think it has any deeper implication than the immediate Davos storyline but it's a clever little bit of foreshadowing that I never noticed until now. In Davos II, as he's entering White Harbor, we're given a description of the people who have taken up residence in the Fishfoot Yard and their activities. In particular: "A man was selling apples from a barrow, and a woman was offering herring with chopped onions." I wonder if it was red herring?

Sandra Melis Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 In ADWD, Davos observes a woman in White Harbor selling herrings with chopped onions... this may be foreshadowing his fake beheading! http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/topic/81408-moments-of-foreshadowing-4/page-17#entry4559798 I already noticed it, but I guess that someone else had... even before myself! :blushing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
