Does HBO use CGI to generate the images of Dany's dragons, or do they work with live dragons on the set for those scenes?
you have my respect.

Was it actually possible for Daenerys to take her army along the demon road to Volantis? The Golden Company seemed pretty certain this was suicide and that most of the army would desert whilst the rest would perish. So presumably her sellswords would have deserted and the great bulk of her unsullied died. Making such a march unviable.

I'd imagine there's a shed load more questions about the world after LoIaF has come out, such as...

How big is Sothoryos, and how much more is known about it? (You'd think the Old Valyrians would've known a thing or two, it's just across the water.)

How big is Ulthos, and what is known about it? Seems odd to introduce a whole new continent without some purpose, however small.

How much further East does Essos go on for? Can't be much further, it's enormous.

I know ultimately our knowledge has to end somewhere, but it seems like someone must know more about these areas. If so many traders circle the Jade Sea, there must be some info on the south of it, and therefore the eastern coast of Sothoryos and the western coast of Ulthos.

Does Drogon currently look like Alduin off Skyrim? :D

Can I ask (a) question(s)?

-Do White Walkers have shadows?
-Is Shireen's King's Blood polluted by greyscale?
-Is the door under the Nightfort more than just a passageway for Black Brothers?

At the Tower of Joy, the 3 KG guarding it, which contained Lyanna Stark, fought a group of Knights led by her brother Ned who would fight to protect her.  Why couldn't that conflict have easily been avoided, even if R+L=J?  Do you intend for the next two books to detail this?

How many people did Daenerys have killed at Astapor?

Was this a poorly defined order by Dany to kill the slave owners, which in the heat of the moment warped into a broad order for genocide?

Book questions:

Will we see more Beric Dondarrion?

Will we find out who the mystery man is in the Ghost of Winterfell?

Who killed Little Walder?

Will Coldhands' identity be revealed?

Show questions:

How involved was George in the casting process for season 3?

Are there plans to include Wun Wun in the show?

There have been many different questions raised in the books (cannon and semi cannon) written so far. Questions regarding characters, the rise and fall of various cultures, etc. By the conclusion of ASOIAF and Dunk and Egg, do you specifically intend to leave some questions unanswered and give some vague answers for others?

Does R + L = J? And when you ask the question watch his expression awfully closely to see how he reacts ;)

If Ned had already heard Sansa's version of the Mycah incident, why did he not prepare her better to face a cross-examination before the whole court?

With all the prophesies about Azor Ahai and the prince that was promised, is there meant to be only one single hero of the series?

The Lightning Lord gave the body of a dead woman Rhllor's fiery kiss, ending his life so that Lady Stoneheart may rise. It is known.





A pretty shitty trade-off if you ask me.

How do the Unsullied pee? People were speculating that the reason 'Reek' stinks is because Ramsey removed his parts like the Unsullied, so he can't help smelling like urine, etc. but the warriors don't smell. It's a legitimate question!

They might squat when they pee.

Is the name Rhaegar just a Valyrianized form of Ray(mond)? (As in, ahem, George Raymond Richard Martin.)
