dbunting Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 When I watched it I thought it was Bran saying it to Hodor, no way of knowing for sure until next week. And the title is Blood of my Blood, Benjen is the blood of Bran so.... Just like Sam heading to Horn Hill to the blood of his blood, maybe get the reference in Sansa shutting down the Jon half brother so he may betray you crap.

The Night King Cometh Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Maybe it's Meera killing an undead Hodor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually the castle I long to see the most, both on TV and in the books. I don't think it's Horn Hill. Highgarden or Oldtown I think. Horn Hill is a much smaller castle according to WOTW. But maybe they are just talking about the inside of the castle. http://watchersonthewall.com/castell-de-santa-florentina-confirmed-as-horn-hill-plus-new-season-6-spoilers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDirewolf Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I took that as Meera apologizing from afar to a fallen Hodor in guilt for asking him to stay back. I never really considered anything outside of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 It's Meera's voice. Bran is still dreaming as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angrivarius Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 I think its Meera, it sounds like her and it makes sense in relation to the wights that seem to be already snatching after their legs. Bran is in a dream, she pulls him on the stretcher, when she realises, that she won't make it with him. I hope they are not rescued by Benjen or Coldhands, because that would be so predictable and cheap like all the films where you know that everything is turning to an happy end. Meera could leave Bran, to be rescued by Benjen later. Also I think it would be disappointing if Bloodraven is really dead, I mean he is this really powerful greenseer and we didn't see him dying, he only disappeared in Brans vision as far as we know! If he would be this good old humanitarian, why is he north of the wall amid white walkers and all these human bones? I imagined him as being a reference to Balor of the Evil Eye (as I pointed out in this thread: http://asoiaf.westeros.org/index.php?/topic/140206-asoiaf-and-ancient-mythology-spoiler/#comment-7602656) and Sauron and not this old softie that shows Bran how to use the internet and then just wastes away. What if Bloodraven is this really badass puppet master and needs Bran to cut all ties to his former life (Ned, Cat, Robb, Theon, Rickon, Sansa, Ariya, John gone, Jojen dead, Hodor eaten, Meera next) to discover his real fate? Or do you want to see an allience of all humans against the wights and then Danny just turns up with her wonderful dragons and melts all of the cold away? Borring! Pls Benjen stay away and let Bran meet his new friends! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I hated it when people said they wanted Spoiler The Ghost of Winterfell to be Benjen. It makes him into a selfish asshole and ruins his character. Like people wanting Ned to still be alive and in hiding and just biding his time. So, Ned cowardly hiding as his family gets torn to shreds basically? Stupid. What I just thought of though is maybe have Spoiler Benjen be dead and Bloodraven warged into his mind just before he died. But there's a limit as to how long BR will stay as BR until his mind gets completely lost in there like wargs getting lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Snow Bengal Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Sounds like Meera to me. If "Benjen" just disappears afterwards, that is just awful. I guess its easier for them to do that but for the story it's just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Oaf of Highgarden Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I also seem to be with the minority and think it is Bran. As soon as I heard it I never thought it was anyone other than Bran. Just re listened and still think it is. I am guessing we will find out next week though. I too also believe that hooded, flaming guy has to be Benjen saving the day. An explanation is certainly needed for his absence though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonReborned Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I hope he is Benjen saving them but also hope we get a good explanation about what he has been doing north of the wall on whenever he has been. I am sure Martin will have a really good one in the books if this situation happens there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FacelessManOf TheShire Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 FWIW I think it sounds more like Meera. I'm more interested in the Kings Landing though, and the shit that's about top go down between the Crown and the Faith. I suspect the Faith comes out on top despite the apparent overwhelming advantage in numbers the Lannisters / Tyrells appear to have. Most likely Marge will be threatened leading to Tommen forcing troops to down pikes. Also can't see how the Crown coming out on top would lead to the 'I choose violence' scene with Cersei and the Faith Militant Vs UnGregor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the tower of albion Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 The Tyrells and the Sparrows are totally playing the Lannisters. It's just a ruse to get their forces inside the walls of Kings Landing where they will then (collectively) out number the Lannister and KL military strength. Once again Cersei can't see beyond the end of her nose and when they send Jamie to the Riverlands there's gonna be a coup. Cersei. "I choose violence."

Daughter of Death Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Don't know if anyone has pointed it out yet, but starting scene, Meera is on Brans little sled-thingy and going at a fast pace, and that fireball dude from the trailer looks as if he's in the same environment. So I'm guessing Benjen/Coldhands finds them while hiding and kills some wights and pulls them away or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daughter of Death Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 And I also think Bran will be in a coma or something for the majority of this episode while bloodravens knowledge is being "downloaded" into him and we will get loads of visions (I heard somewhere that the dude that plays Ned in TOJ-scene is in this episode).

I totally agree and expect some form of oh crap moments with the tyrell army being inside Kings landing. Very excited to see that plotline finally come to a boil. its been simmering for faaaaar too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I always felt it was going somewhere exciting and it would end in chaos. I anticipate this episode will be the start of that chaos.
