Winter Rose Crown

If you are the next male in line to a house of landed knights, can you inherit if you're not a knight? I'm thinking of Gregor and Sandor Clegane. If Gregor had died, would Sandor have been his heir even though he isn't a knight?

Ty everyone.

So Ramsay snow gets legitimized and becomes Ramsay Bolton. When aegon iv legitimized bloodraven, did he become brynden targaryen? Why is he still known as brynden rivers if he is legitimized?

Thanks!

NW and KG vows are similar. If a man of the NW deserts, his life is forfeit. What about KG? Is it just dishonorable or is it punishable by death? If selmy wanted to defect to be with Ashara, could he? I know, I know, he was way too honorable. But was it even possible?

He also left out Arryn, Tully, and Boltons (arguably a great house now that they are wardens of the North).

Regarding being on the other side of the wall: I think that will be important for the ides. We know Jon can't warg when the wall separates him and ghost and ghost is in CB. Maybe the stabbing happens over there before he can get through -- like they say they will come out to talk and that's when it goes down. Would also explain how he rises again, since everyone does on that side of the wall.

ultimately, I think they all play a role in stopping the ww. As such, westeros is again split into 7 kingdoms with 7 rulers.

dany says in the book that she doesn't worry about getting the pale mare because Targaryens are immune to sicknesses of the common folk. If tyrion didn't get greyscale from Jorah, that would add a lot of fuel to the AJT fire.

I was hoping cersei would have her walk of shame in episode 9 but it doesn't look like that will happen. Is jorah trying to get back in the pit to spread greyscale intentionally? Because he's mad at dany?
