"Oathbreaker!" "Renly!" "Stannis!" - something along those lines... it may be a place but i can't remember where it was the Cat Stark promised never to stand between Brienne and her venegence against Stannis for Renly... someone pointed this out in another thread and while i'm not 100% on which word, i'm pretty sure this is the reasoning behind it...

[FanTasy]

It probably is not a name, in the text it says it is a word.

"Oathbreaker!"

I never thought of this one. Interesting one !

For me, it was always either Sword, Arya or Sansa... but there are plenty of other theories !

[DragonSpawn]

Accusing Stoneheart of being an Oathbreaker would mean a trial etc... so i figured this is quite likely if it is a word rather than a name... it's a bit hypocritical to hang Brienne without trial for breaking an oath when Cat made her own promises to Brienne... so i suppose Stoneheart would have to choose between hanging Brienne then facing trial herself, or letting her down...

[David Selig]

I don't see how Stannis makes sense. UnCat thinks that Brienne has committed a crime worthy of death and broken her oath of fealty to her - this should be a sufficient reason to invalidate the Stannis promise, which was related to that oath. Besides, in her whole last PoV chapter Brienne didn't think of Stannis even once.

The thing is we dont know how Stoneheart thinks or feel, so it's tight to figure what the heck could happen in her head.

[Ser Ilyn's Tongue]

Does Brienne know about Oathkeeper's history?  She could have shouted 'Ice'.  It might have grabbed Stoneheart's attention and allowed Brienne to explain her story further.

"Arya"
Jaime and brienne both know about the fake Arya conspiracy,im pretty sure that stoneheart sent brienne to get Jaime in order to hear his story about fake Arya.then they might be killed..

I'd forgotten they know about 'Arya' -- which leads me back to thinking the Hooded Man was sent from Un-Cat. (Tomorrow I'll think differently though, just can't figure that one out).... but I just don't see Un-Cat offing *either* Jaime or Brienne. I think they live out the series, unless they die heroically to save someone.

Lady Stoneheart knows that Arya is alive. And she probably knows that Jeyne Poole is a fake.

What about " Peach"?

Who knows if Bran doesnt have a part in all of this.

I know he cannot influence on the past, but maybe he found a way...

[Spearmother]

Before I joined this forum I wondered if she might have shouted "Ice", although I do not remember exactly if Jaime told her about the origin of the sword. In any case, any word with more than one syllable seems unlikely to me, given the circumstances Brienne was in. "Sword" is just as likely.

Un-Cat was dead for about three days, and when she died, one of her last thoughts was "Ned, I am coming" or something similar. I agree with The Valonquar that she probably knows which of her loved ones are dead or alive. I imagine she would have found out in the afterlife.

I've seen this being thrown about - what does it mean? Noob question perhaps but if you don't ask, you don't get

Why would Stoneheart care much about fake Arya?

"Sword" is the only option that make sense
IMO.

An imposter trying to claim winterfell by posing as her daughter and fooling loyal stark bannermen would definetly make stoneheart
angry i think.Also this might give stoneheart
hope that her real daughter is still alive

How does "Sword" make sense?

Sword makes sense, birds makes more. But Blackfish...

They gave her a choice. "Sword or noose." She had to yell something that would make them cut her down and something that would have occurred to her immediately under extreme duress (i.e. I don't think she'd have the presence of mind to come up with the fake!Arya thing). I think it's 95% likely that "sword" is what she said and that people are thinking way, way too much about this.
