What does the doll have to do with it? About the same as the serpents in Sansa's hair. It's not about the doll. HallowedMarcus, it's about an incident. Or rather two incidents. What do the two incidents have in common? First, Sansa is an unwitting accomplice. Second, LIttlefinger uses each incident to kill someone. Joffrey in the first, Lysa Arryn in the second. These two commonalities are what the first and second parts of this prophecy have in common. It is important to use the same deductive reasoning when trying to figure out each part of the prophecy. You cannot separate the two.

Robin is play acting as the giant (his doll) when he makes it destroy the snow castle. This is typical childhood behavior- a child picks up a doll, and when making it perform an action, the child says, as if it were voicing the doll, "I'm a fierce (your choice of creature here)! And I'm going to destroy you!" Is the child actually going to destroy anything, or is the child making the doll do it? In the child's mind, it's the doll performing the action. If you read the passage, you'll see that it IS Sansa that "kills" Lord Robert's doll, as he claims when he says, "You killllllled it!" It seems you missed the point of my post. Sweetrobin's doll is the giant, as he claims, and Sansa brings about its death. We'll know for certain in a few years when the books finally come out and we see if and how Littlefinger meets his end. Then I'll revisit this post and either hang my head in shame, or gloat.

Not to de-rail this topic, but I think many posters have missed the meaning of the GoHH's prophecy, and how it has already come true as it applies to Sansa. Understandable, as I didn't catch it until my third (yes, three times) read through. Concerning Sansa, GoHH says, " I dreamt of a maid at a feast with purple serpents in her hair, venom dripping from their fangs. And later I dreamt that maid again, slaying a savage giant in a castle built of snow.[3] " The first part about the feast and purple serpents refers to Sansa being an unwilling/unknowing accomplice in Joffrey's murder- that much we all seem to agree on. The second part, though, refers directly to Sansa's building the snow castle in the Eyrie and Lord Robert coming in with his doll and destroying it. Read that part again and you'll see what I mean. In the ASOS paperback I have, it's on page 1105. Sansa has built the snow castle when Lord Robert enters the scene. "Look, here comes a giant to knock it down," says Lord Robert. Sansa tries to grab the doll but little Lord Robert has a firm hold of it and it rips in half, spilling sawdust over the remains of the snow castle. "You killllllled him!" Lord Robert wailed. This incident leads directly to Lysa's confrontation with Sansa when Littlefinger comes in and saves her by throwing Lysa out the Moon Door. So each half of this prophecy deals with Sansa being an unwilling/unknowing accomplice in murders committed by Littlefinger. Not Sansa killing Littlefinger. I hope that clears things up for those that were thinking Sansa will kill Littlefinger.
