  1. GRRM has set Littlefinger up to travel to the Riverlands. Daven Lannister is betrothed to a Frey. The wedding seems likely to happen soon, probably at Riverrun. As Lord Paramount of the Riverlands, liege lord of House Frey, who is believed to be a Lannister ally, it would raise eyebrows if LF didn't attend the wedding. Allayne/Sansa could travel as far as Harrenhall or attend the wedding as a "below the salt" guest, much as Jon Snow attended the feast for Robert Baratheon at Winterfell. The Red Wedding 2.0 theory has Jamie (and maybe Brienne) attending the wedding escorting the Brotherhood without Banners into Riverrun (or whereever the wedding is held). Lady Stoneheart won't be too far away. Maybe Arya could make her way there too. The wedding seems like a great fulcrum for bringing several storylines back together. And maybe, just maybe, Jamie would support Tyrion's claim to Casterly Rock by backing Sansa. Tinfoil?
  2. GRRM made sure that the Burned Men and Black Ears are able to recognize Sansa, as detailed in this post: Sansa, the Mountain Clans, the “Ivy Special Ops Team,” and an Avalanche. I've always liked the avalanche theory as a way to reintroduce the clans and to subject Sansa to sensory deprivation, which seems to have been a factor in developing the Warg sense of her siblings. In response to my post, others rightly pointed out that the Clans would not have much interest in rescuing people buried by the avalanche. I've come to question whether there would be time in TWoW for the avalanche and its aftermath to play out, and, if the Vale story has any purpose, Sansa and Littlefinger would have to survive. I continue to think it makes sense for the Clans and Sansa to be brought together to help her claim Casterly Rock in Tyrion's name.
  3. I've always thought the N+A = J theory makes narrative sense. Poor Cat.
  4. I think the entire KL-centered Iron Throne story represents "how we got here" background to the central story of "Ice and Fire," which is a story of the North and the Long Night and the Old Gods and Winter. If this is the case, action is moving north for the last two books. So if Sansa were to return to KL it would put her out of the main trajectory of the story. Maybe that will happen to preserve her to take part in post-War of Winter rebuilding. Or maybe she goes North because she and her remaining siblings have a role to play when Winter has come.
