Genna Lannister: the last hope of house frey?

[a knight of the vale]

When lord walder dies, the unity of house frey goes with him it will be every man for himself, the one who takes control of the twins will most likely boot out any one they dont approve therefore displacing hundreds of freys.

Could Genna being the lady of riverrun and the one in charge take in these displaced freys and bring back unity to the family albeit based at riverrun,

With unity at riverrun and most likely further betrayal at the twins, Genna could find her self as the de facto lady frey

with the vale coming to the riverlands in the name of sansa stark (dont tell me their going to the north first the seas are to dangerous in winter for such a move) what ever comes from the north, aeg to the south, knowing her abilitys at being a lannister will she be able to put up a fight to where the name frey will see the end of series? Or should we start writting the freys song?

I suspect UnCat and the BWB will have taken care of her by then.

Hopefully Daven's wedding should be an "interesting" affair.

Doubtful. Genna doesn't seem to care one bit about the Freys. Without the Twins, the tangled web of marriages and alliances they've made over the years doesn't really mean anything. the Freys who have lands and titles will continue to have lands and titles. The ones who don't, and haven't married well like Emmon, will be left out to make their own way.

What would you rather have if you were Genna in Riverrun? A Master-at-arms, or a Frey Master-at-arms who might one day complicate the claim of your children?

Most of the Freys at the Twins, the ones without official responsibilities anyway, have been pretty much coasting on Lord Walder's 'family first' policy. Ironically, he's more kind and benevolent a lord to his kin than most, if not the vast majority. That's not going to happen once he's gone. Either you're of use, or your branch of the family tree gets pruned.

Yep, this. Tom Sevenstrings has already infiltrated Riverrun, so I suspect Genna's days are numbered.

Really looking forward to that wedding. :devil:

Plus, Jaime told Tom O'Sevens "She's the one that matters."

[unSonofStannis]

Start writing the Frey's song because I think the BWB are going to throw one hell of a wedding at Riverrun.

[SeanF]

I quite like Lady Genna. I hope she has the sense to get out of Riverrun as soon as the balloon goes up.

[Maia]

I hope that she survives. She is quite interesting and I'd like to hear more about Joanna, Reyne and Tarbeck rebellion, her relatives' personalities and histories, how she disappointed Tywin (I suspect that she was sleeping around and that her youngest son Red Walder is a bastard) and other events from Lannister past from her.

Maybe somebody among the BwB would actually think about the smallfolk, that they claim to protect, and let the Lannisters be ransomed, after they take Riverrun? Because, what, with the snow in KL and the last harvest pretty much destroyed by war, Riverlands are going to starve soon.

But yea, not seeing Genna wanting to save the Freys, as she appears to despise them as much as everybody else does. Or being in position to do so, really, because BwB is clearly gearing up to do something with Riverrun.

Also, there was zero indication in text that Daven intended to marry "his stoat" at Riverrun, so I don't think that he is going to be involved. In fact, since he is supposed to be the Warden of the West for Cersei and the Ironborn are on the roll, I'd expect him to go home ASAP.

[Morienthar]

Joy Hill is the Lannisters only hope.

[Tommen]

Does anyone else picture her as Stifler's mom?

[Bright Blue Eyes]

Does anyone else picture her as Stifler's mom?

Nope. Because Genna has way more pounds on her hip.

[KJR the PR of TaFW]

i hope she lives a bit longer, i love how she puts dowwn her husband;0

[The Broke Howard Hughes]

Gennas going to die along with her husband and any other Frey at Riverrun.

[Fire Eater]

Gennas going to die along with her husband and any other Frey at Riverrun.

And Lannister

[Runaway Penguin]

My guess is Jaime will be one of players in the Frey gambit... And that he will exact a promise to spare Lannisters. He doesn¨t care a bit about Freys.

IF the promise is given by Blackfish, it may be even believable :)

And what would he offer for that bargain? And who under the sun would trust the Kingslayer? UnCat? :lmao:

[Stark King in the North]

i think at least 99% of freys will be slaughtered and the majority of Lannisters, Im sure lord frey will suffer horrible death

[The Idiots Lantern]

Genna Lannister is a cool example of GRRM giving even the small, bit-part characters a convincing inner-life of their own. I can't say I like her chances whenever the Riverlands revert from Frey/Lannister control, but no one can say she didn't go down fighting.

[Runaway Penguin]

Actually, he has quite a lot to offer:

1. Hostages of last Tully loyalist

2. Knowledge of Edmure Tully's travel plans

3. Knowledge of RW prisoners travel plans

4. Possibility to gain access to Riverrun or Twins by the authority of Lord Commander of the Kingsguard (on the run with small escort from band of outlaws). Tom o' Sevens is nice, but his position is more suited for espionage than for opening the gates - he's alone after all. On the other hand if he just hapens to be passing buy when LC and escorts are admitted...

One thing can be safely assumed: He survived his meeting with Lady Stoneheart, otherwise he would be found hanging on a tree already. He may be a prisoner, a hostage, whatever, but he has also witnesses who can shed some light into things LS will try and accuse him of (orchestrating Red Wedding - the girl from Harrenhall, for example). Generally the only thing LS can accuse him of rightfully (that would pertain to the matters at hand, ie Red Wedding, not delivering Sansa and Arya and Stark family overall) is Bran, and she released him after he admitted it to her.

As to who would trust him... Well, Blackfish might not trust him but respect him, same for others more informed men around.

[Lord Damian]

odds are better than 50/50 she gets killed at the Lannister/Frey wedding that is about to happen or killed on the way back to Riverrun. Wolves might be the culprit. She seems like a hateful fat, rich, arrogant bitch.
