Would Stannis Sacrifice Davos?


Leif

Recommended Posts

Just wondering what people think. Would Stannis allow Mel to sacrifice Davos if it was sure to grant him something useful and notable - say a dragon or even the IT? Would it have to be something even more important - such as making Stannis AA without a doubt and giving him the power to combat the Others? Or do you think there's nothing that could make Stannis give Davos to R'hllor's flames? It's clear that Stannis isn't against sacrificing a child with his own blood if it helps his cause. But what about his closest friend?

He wouldn't think twice. It's going to be a glorious moment when Stan finally realises Mel is full of shit and he's no more AAR than Hot Pie or Penny the dwarf girl.

Agreed. At this point Stannis is pretty much in "by any means necessary" mode.

Since we're doing these sort of questions these days I'd like to put in a few more regarding Stannis, just to continue the trend:

Would Stannis castrate his whole army to make it more efficient like the Unsullied?

Would Stannis give his infant son to the flames if Melisandre told him to?

Why did Stannis cause the Doom of Old Valyria?

Why did Stannis save the Wall? Now that was singularly cruel.

Why does Stannis not worship the Seven? Is he mean or something?

Would Stannis throw Shireen off the Wall if Mel told him to?

Would Stannis throw Mel off the Wall if she told him to?

All such valid questions. And best thing about them is you don't even need to toss characterization out the window!

Hmmm...

I think Stannis might throw Mel off the Wall if she told him to throw Shireen off the Wall.

As to the rest, Stannis has no son; had no part in the Doom of Valyria; has no clue about the Unsullied, as far as I know; and he saved the NW from the Wildlings, not the Wall. Small difference, but there it is.
