The Winds of Winter - Estimates & Predictions


jaimereborn

Recommended Posts

Which POV Starks will be left standing?
Not Jon, since he will be ~Targ~

Which POV Lannisters will be left standing?
Jaime, Tyrion, Cersei

Which POVs are most likely to die?
Davos, Theon, Aeron, Brienne, JonCon, Melisandre

Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?
In Pentos. Then hop across to Crackclaw Point or Vale.

Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?
Cliffhanger of Nights King with Horn of Joramun.

Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?
Tommen will be burnt when Cersei torches the city, and Myrcella the Queen in Casterly Rock.

Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?
No one. Jon at Castle Black (idk why) with wildlings and Northeners and Stannis. Rickon bringing reinforcements from Skagos with Davos to Eastwatch. Meera and the giants/Children/beasts at Shadow Tower crossing the Gorge with maybe Weeper.

What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?
What the Citadel is up to. Hightower game plan.

Will Cersei win her trial?
Yes. The Dragonpit has been burnt once, the Sept of Remembrance (foreshadowing for Sept of Baelor) has been burnt, and now it is time for the Red Keep to burn.

Is Aegon fake?
Yes. A mixture of both Blackfyre and Bryghtflame bloods.

Is Jon still alive?
Warged into his own wight.

If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?
Probably, through Howland? He has enough time to make it to the Wall I think.

What role will Dorne play?
Supporting Aegon, besieging Lannisport and wrecking shit in the Westerlands.

What role will the Iron Islands play?
Win at Meereen. Killing Garlan in the Reach and sacking Highgarden/Hightower.

Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?
All of them................

Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?
Rickon, Bran and Jon. Arya and Sansa meet again in aDoS. One of each gender will die also. I guess Jon has "died" already, so Arya once she's in Casterly Rock.

Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?
Freys yes, but he can't do anything against Boltons tbh. That's for Stannis. Cersei will stab/poison him, but he will grab her by the foot and drag her from the Rock into the sea. He was born holding her foot, he will die doing so. Or the same but in Kings Landing, dragging them both into the flames of wyldfyre.

Right, first post on this forum so here it goes



Which POV Starks will be left standing?


Bran, will die in the last book or at least just fade out the storyline


Rickon will be sacrificed by Stannis along with theon as both have kings blood, turning Stannis heal.


Sansa or Ayra will die, Ayra will be sent to kill littlefinger by Varys, Sansa saves littlefinger and kills Ayra before she realises it’s her sister. That will be the shocking chapter



Which POV Lannisters will be left standing?


Jamie and Cersei,



Which POVs are most likely to die?


I think the big mystery links back to the first book “When you play the game of thrones you win or you die. There is no middle ground”.


Therefore I am coming to the conclusion only one POV character from book 1 will survive the whole thing. Which means I think there will be some deaths from the POV’s from the first book. Martin has already said we now have characters in the same locations so he can kill a few off.



Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?


No


Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?


The others won’t have but maybe a large amount of wights


Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?


Tommen



Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?


Stannis



What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?


More information on the nights king and a secret location for something north of the wall, that was critical in defeating the others previously (lightbringer possibly).



Will Cersei win her trial?


yes


Is Aegon fake?


yes



Is Jon still alive?


No – he might become a zombie like CS



If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?


Yes, through Bran



What role will Dorne play?


After Danny dies Dorne will ally with the iron born (victarion) and Aegon and try and mount an invasion using myrcella as a bride for Aegon uniting Baratheon and Targ. An assassin will kill Euron (or Aeron will). Arriane will marry Victarion.



They will be defeated though will Aegon becoming a bonnie prince Charlie type figure in hiding as a woman


What role will the Iron Islands play?


See above.



Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?


The point of the Faith Militant. It seems to be similar to the knights Templar, I think they will become quite important in defeating Stannis once he comes south. I can see them making the same mistake the Templars did by going into harsh terrain (winter here instead of dessert) without adequate resources and be slaughtered by the others or Stannis


If Martin has introduced this group for no major reason I will be disappointed,



Queburn is a Bolton spy.



Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?


Ayra and Sansa right at the death of Ayra



Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?


The Freys possibly

Which POV Starks will be left standing?
Probably all unless you count Stoneheart. But I don't think Rickon and Arya will survive the winter.

Which POV Lannisters will be left standing?
Tyrion, maybe Jaime. If Cercei doesn't die at least one or both her remaining children will, and she'll go before the end of the series.

Which POVs are most likely to die?
Connington, Selmy, Davos, Victarion, Brienne, Cercei, Jaime


Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?
If she does, it will be at the very end.

Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?
Crossed the Wall, maybe. Running all over the continent, no.

Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?
Someone we don't expect. Not a Lannister, a Baratheon, or a (true or false) Targaryen. Maybe a Tyrell or Martell. Maybe Littlefinger or even Robert Arryn.

Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?
No one. Ruined again.

What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?
Magic. Not sure he'll show up again until A Dream of Spring, though. Also, the Braavosi conspiracy.

Will Cersei win her trial?
She'll refuse to participate, leading to chaos and contributing to the death of her children. Or she'll either win or lose and Ser Robert Strong will be unmasked. In any case this does not end well for her.

Is Aegon fake?
Yes, but he and his followers don't know it. He was Varys' and Illyrio's backup in case the real Targaryens didn't work out. Marrying him to Dany was their way of getting rid of him and preventing someone else from co-ruling with her, but now they figure Dany is a lost cause and he is their best hope.


Is Jon still alive?
He's not quite dead. Or, more likely, he will come back to life, possibly through the ministrations of Melisandre after a brief time as Ghost. If he really died an argument can be made that he's no longer bound by his vows so he can become King in the North, among other things.

If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?
I'm not even going to guess. From his hints, it seems George R.R. Martin himself has had a hard time deciding if the time is right. I don't know what living person might know the truth besides possibly Howland Reed. Bran interpreted Jojen's story as meaning Ashara Dayne was Jon's mother, but that does not mean this was Jojen's, much less Howland's, belief. [Edit: or was it Arya who heard a story and came to that conclusion? My memory of it is fuzzy now.]

What role will Dorne play?
They were going to support Dany, but Quentyn's death will reverse that. They will support Aegon if they accept his claim and don't see him as an extension of Dany. They will also play a role in the Lannisters' Faith-related downfall.

What role will the Iron Islands play?
I'm really at a loss as to why they have such a big role already, except that they are a fan favorite. My best guess is that at the end of the day they won't have made a huge difference, aside from the loss of Winterfell.

Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?
Maggy's prophesy. Let's get all that over and done (death of Cercei's children and the valonqar, probably Jaime rather than Tyrion, killing her) so aDoS isn't too overloaded with important loose ends to take care of.


Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?
Maybe Jon (if he counts as a Stark) and Arya. I say this mainly because of the hint in Game of Thrones that Melisandre and Arya will meet again. Jon may well be there too.

Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?

He won't help Stoneheart do anything. More likely he and Brienne will destroy Stoneheart. Freys, who knows? I do think Lord Walder needs to meet a particularly unpleasant fate, regardless. Lannisters, yes, I think he'll kill Cercei after she's gotten their remaining children, and maybe Brienne, killed.

Sansa Stark, - live

Arya Stark, - Will die

Bran Stark, survive into the last book

Jon Snow, - already dead although may become a wight

Tyrion Lannister, - will die in WOW

Princess Daenerys Targaryen, - will die in WOW

I'm brand new too so my apologies if I'm messing up how to respond to a post. Anyway, I disagree with a lot of your predictions, but with regard to your list I've quoted I agree that Sansa is the most likely to live, not only through The Winds of Winter but to the end of the series. Did you hear, and take notice, of that little line in Game of Thrones when Tyrion said Sansa "may yet survive us all" or something like that? I think that was a hint, and anyway I don't see much of a future for the other Starks beyond this story. I do think that Jon, Tyrion, and Dany, if they die definitively, will not do so until the end of aDoS. I'm petty sure they are the three heads of the dragon (less sure in the case of Tyrion, but the histories published in the short story collections have proven that some people can ride dragons who have no known Targaryen blood, such a big deal was made of the special saddle that allowed Tyrion to ride a horse, he has a lifelong obsession with dragons, etc.).

A couple issues I see with your predictions...

Catelyn isn't a "Wight", those are created by The Others. Cat was brought back to life. She's more (un)dead than anything else.

Arya won't die. GRRM's own wife said she'll divorce him if he kills her. Arya simply isn't going to die, IMO.

Jon isn't dead, GRRM has stated that he's comatose at the beginning of WOW. (much like Bran was earlier in the series)

And if Tyrion and Dany both die in WOW....who will be left in ADOS to continue the story? Makes no sense to kill off 2 of the main characters before the series is even finished.

where/when did GRRM state Jon was comatose? as far as I'm aware, he's only made cryptic hints that wryly mock those who think Jon is actually dead

Aegon. Though, i belive his sit will be in Oldtown. King's Landing will be destroyed by wildfire.

Nothern lords with Rickon

Doran will learn his own lesson that in the end the children pay the price. That and news od Quentyn's death will kill him.

Theon, JonCon, Cersei.

Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?
I don't know that she's still going to be making that trip, but if she does, she'd at least depart in WOW.

Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?
Not yet, but it's coming...


Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?
Not Tommen, perhaps Margaery if she survives (though I don't think she and Cersei both will), but there's really no proper successor for Tommen, so it's hard to say. Of course Stannis is still declaring himself king from his seat in Winterfell, and (f)Aegon as well.

Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?
Rickon.

What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?
Probably stuff about the Others, and the Faceless Men.

Will Cersei win her trial?
Yes.

Is Aegon fake?
I think so, yes. But only a very select few know it, possibly not even including him.

Is Jon still alive?
Yeah.

If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?
I'd say it's about time to solve that one. Probably through Howland Reed. Or the readers will find out but not Jon.

What role will Dorne play?
Nymeria kills Tommen in KL and Dorne joins with whichever Targ gets there first.

What role will the Iron Islands play?
Not sure. Euron might show up in Meereen, but I don't know how pivitol they'll be.

Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?
I'd like Jon's parentage to finally be confirmed, though it's not much of a mystery it seems. And of course Maggy's prophecy. Even if Cersei survives her trial, I think her time may be up.

Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?
Maybe at the very end of the book.

Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?

Freys, probably. Lannisters, I'm not so sure.

*All opinions subject to change as soon as someone else gives me a better idea.

Which POV Starks will be left standing?

Sansa, Arya, Bran. Jon doesn't count, Snow =/= Stark. hehe technicality B)


Which POV Lannisters will be left standing?

Tyrion and maaaayybeee Jaime, but my gut says no.


Which POVs are most likely to die?

Breinne the Beauty, Theon, Asha, Cersei, Barristan


Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?

I really hope, don't have a good feeling though. Lot's of distractions and places to roam between Mereen and Westeros.


Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?

They will have made their presence known and be established at the Wall, but will not be through.


Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?

Aegon


Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?

Stannis


What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?

Hopefully something about the Hightowers


Will Cersei win her trial?

The Trial won't happen to due either: 1) an uprising of the smallfolk and Faith Militant or 2) invasion by Aegon's forces


Is Aegon fake?

I wanna believe he's real dammit! So I say no, but it is murky.


Is Jon still alive?

Yes, of course. Jon's 'bittersweet' death won't come until close to the end of the series.


If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?

Nope. The big, public reveal won't come in the penultimate book of GRRM's masterpiece. Saving for ADOS.


What role will Dorne play?

Arianne will go against her father's wishes and side with Aegon and possibly marry him. Doran will be stuck and support Aegon as he sees it as his best chance to get revenge on the Lannisters finally. With so much uncertainty regarding Dany and Quentyn, he finally has to make some rash decisions after being very cautious for so long. This will complicate things for him when Dany eventually arrives.


What role will the Iron Islands play?

The Iron Fleet being used to transport Dany and her dragons/army to Westeros, chaos everywhere else due to Euron being crazy.


Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?

What is Jaqen's/the FM's endgame? Something has to be going on for him to be infiltrating the Citadel like he is.


Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?

Don't see it happening.


Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?

Sure why not. He obviously doesn't like the Freys and has no more love for his sister. The kids will already be dead by then though. :frown5:

All of the currently living ones.

Just Tyrion.

Victarion, Barristan (Battle of Meereen), Jon Connington (Greyscale, his perspective is replaced by Arianne's), Cersei, Jaime (Dying together as the Red Keep burns.)


Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?

Her last chapter will be her arrival on Dragonstone.


Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?

The epilogue will be the Others breaking through the Wall.

Aegon

Stannis

This will not be answered definitively, and will be up to the reader.

Of course he is.

I don't know if Jon will know, but I believe it will be revealed to the audience by the end of TWOW.


What role will Dorne play?

Arianne marries Aegon and the Dornish forces help him conquer KL.


What role will the Iron Islands play?

The Iron Fleet takes Dany to Westeros. Probably other things but I don't know.

Too many to count.

Rickon and Sansa, maybe.

Which POV Starks will be left standing?
All of them

Which POV Lannisters will be left standing?
Tyrion and cersei

Which POVs are most likely to die?
Euron, Asha

Will Dany have reached Westeros by the end of TWOW?
Yes; only just

Will The Others have invaded Westeros by the end of TWOW?
The wall comes down in the last scene.

Who will be on the Iron Throne by the end of TWOW?
Aegon

Who will hold Winterfell by the end of TWOW?
Rickon (Howland Reed finally reveals himself and is taking up the mantle of Warden until Rickon is old enough)

What mysteries will Sam uncover in Oldtown?
About the white walkers, the maester conspiracy, and the Blackfyres (see two questions down)

Will Cersei win her trial?
Yes

Is Aegon fake?
Technically, no. Sam will uncover in Oldtown that Daeron the first was indeed the bastard of Aemon the Dragonknight instead of Aegon's son; therefore the true(er) rulers were the legitimized bastards of Aegon IV, namely Daemon Blackfyre. So he ACTUALLY has the truest claim to the trone.

Is Jon still alive?
Not right now. He will be though. The Prince who was promised will be reborn amidst salt and smoke (or something like that).

If so, will Jon have found out his true heritage by the end of TWOW (and how)?
Not yet, and he won't until Mace Rayder admits (by way of an insanely subtle hint that will leave fans guessing an speculating until the end of time) to him that he has been Rhaegar, his father, in disguise the entire time, the epilogue of book 7. Jon doesn't actually ever realize he was the PWWP when he defeats the others.

What role will Dorne play?
Join up with Aegon. Try and marry Arianne to him, but for a reason I haven't fully thought up yet, he ends up with Sansa. The similarities are uncanny: both pawns of competing snakes (Varys, LF), both think their parents and siblings are all dead, both second children, both posing as low-born, dying their hair to conceal it.... my brother tells me there's another connection to point to it in the Dunk and Egg series which I'm waiting to borrow from my mother. Plus she was going to be queen at the start ("I want to be queen, it's all I've ever wanted!" - did she not say something like that early on, when Ned tries to get them out of dodge?) (Kinda hijacked this question with my theory)

What role will the Iron Islands play?
After Dany destroys the sons of the harpy (who isn't Hizdahr, but the Shavepate!), they show up, Victarion tries to get with her and she turns him down. He then tries and fails to bind a dragon ("A dragon is no slave!") and her children burn him to the ground. She takes his fleet and heads EAST thanks to another vision (or the same one) from Quaithe ("You must go east to go west, north to go south, up to go down, back to go left, yada, yada, yada -) and stops off in Asshai (where I believe she really grew up), before landing and absolutely destroying the II's (Euron gets excited because he sees his fleet with dragons flying above them, only to see the beats burn his land to rubble.

Which mystery/theory would you most like to be solved in TWOW?
CONSPIRACIES! Those damn maesters are up to something. Dany's TRUE childhood home and why she was lied to about Braavos (which I believe she was NOT wholeheartedly). What's LF up to? What's Illyrio up to? What's Bloodraven up to? And most intriguing of all IMO, what's Doran up to?

Will any Starks be reunited in TWOW?
Jon and Rickon, Arya and Nymeria (if you wanna count that).

Will Jaime help Stoneheart bring down the Lannisters/Freys?
Lannisters, no. Freys, yes.
Gonna be a good book. If the show ruins anything for me, I'm gonna flip shit.

Is Jon still alive?
Yes. I think he is only wounded.

Yes. I suspect there's a dragon's egg in Winterfell and the fire has hatched it. There's a mention in AFFC of Queen Alysanne visiting Castle Black 200 years ago. Sam wonders "Could Silverwing have left an egg behind?" I think Jon will find it with Bran's help and they will piece Jon's heritage together.
