TheDarkEye Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I really like his character even though he saw very little of him. Do you think he can play a greater part in the next books? Last we heard of them he was fighting the Iron Men so maybe he'll face Euron?He is a great sword man and seems like one of the most decent men in the serie. How he treated Tyrion in a Storm of Swords and him confronting Joffery really made me like the guy,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Duke Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 He likely was introduced to lead Tyrell forces off screen but still connect the reader with someone there. He is an awesome character, so GRRM will probably have him shanked by a baker or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mist Isle Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Yes, it seems likely that Garlan will play a substantially more important role in the next book. There is going to be a lot more fighting in the southern regions and Garlan may end up as the primary Tyrell commander after Mace Tyrell's looming debacle and probable death and several defections from the Tyrells to Aegon's cause.Garlan Tyrell may end up being the leading general opposing some of Aegon's commanders (probably including Randyll Tarly).

Morienthar Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 He will probably take part in the Dance of the Dragons in some form or the other and die in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ygrain Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I certainly hope that he will, because he is high on the top of suspects of placing the poison in Joff's wine, and I'd much like to learn if he did it or not (I hope not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was pretty clear the Queen of Thorns did it. Doesn't she straighten Sansa's hair net right before Joff gets poisoned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ygrain Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I thought it was pretty clear the Queen of Thorns did it. Doesn't she straighten Sansa's hair net right before Joff gets poisoned?Yes, she took the poison from the hairnet but it has been argued that she couldn't have put it into the wine on her own - she is very tiny, not much taller than Tyrion, and he had to climb on his seat to reach the chalice. It seems that the job required someone taller. Marge could hardly do it when she came to fetch Joffrey, and when the chalice was left unattended, there was only Garlan and his wife Leonette who could have been on the scheme.

Jon of the Dead Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Honestly, if Garlan had a part in killing Joffrey, he'll be even higher in my favorites list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prefiera de Gryfalco Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The big debate is that Olenna took the poison out of Sansa's hairnet, but got it to Garlan, who was sitting next to Tyrion. Then the question is, was it Tyrion meant to be poisoned or Joffrey?Anyways, I think there needs to be a Good Guy Garlan meme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon of the Dead Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I can see 3 outcomes for Garlan and the Tyrells in general:1) They get destroyed trying to fight both Euron and Aegon2) They ally with Aegon3) They try to escape unscathed from the conflict, only to sneak their way back in during a crutial moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Leonette laughed lightly beside him, and Ser Garlan leaned over to say, “A valiant deed unsung is no less valiant.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefiera de Gryfalco Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 There was a thread on this that was just bumped yesterday. It went along with the debate about whether it was the wine or the pie as well.I read an argument for Garlan trying to kill both Joffrey AND Tyrion is that Marge would be saved from Joffrey Sansa would be free to marry Willas again. Which would of course be advantageous to their family. Note how she asked before they went into the feast if Sansa would like to visit Highgarden? Not totally convinced, but is an interesting point.

Sordelor Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I hope so, and I'm really mad that the tv show cutted him and Willas out. The Tyrells are a hugee family, but in the show they for some reason have only 3 members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
