  1. Those children POWs were active participants in the war. They chose to squire. They were not exactly innocents with clean hands. I consider them part of the support crew who were helping the killers do their jobs better. They were killers in training. The innocents are the village children who were the victims of the Stark Rebellion. The ones who lost families, food, and shelter because Robb chose to rebel.
  2. The gemstones is the birthstone of each person in the family. I think they are brothers and sisters and the children of the gods. The stones may indicate birth order. Since Amethyst was in charge it meant she was not the youngest. Daenerys is the youngest of the Targaryens. What is relevant today is she is Azor Ahai and the rightful ruler of Westeros.
  3. Arya should learn from that lesson but any meeting between them will not come before Arya has killed more people. Arya will have reached the point where she is not deserving of a better path. Kill a few more people and Arya will deserve the same worse than death punishment as Stoneheart. Arya should change her own path as soon as possible and choose peace to deserve redemption.
  4. It saves the public face of the Watch and prevents the association of its mad lord commander from destroying their reputation. It will open the possibility of peace with the Boltons and the other people of the north if Jon is out of the picture.
  5. The price of the crossing was perfectly reasonable. The Freys not only allowed the Starks to cross. They also sent men to help. The Freys fought for the Starks. Betrayal was the thanks they got.
  6. The company she kept and keeps are only making Arya's condition worse. A lot of the readers liked the Hound but he was messed up in his own way.
  7. Doran Martell and Arya Stark are the ones who are the best candidates for the title. Doran and Arya are blinded by hate. They want revenge. Arya does more than plan. She kills.
  8. No, just honoring Bowen Marsh for having the courage to assassinate Jon.
  9. Dany is a great communicator and naturally understood the need to preserve the big man's dignity. Great leaders have this ability. Contrast this with Jon Snow, who failed at the Wall because he sucked at communication and motivation.
  10. The subject needs be changed to 'Bowen, the Braveheart.' The poor Crannog man had to ruin his own honor to save the Watch from Jon.
  11. The Starks were just as bad. They were sacrificing people and animals to the Weirwoods. The Starks didn't wipe out the Boltons because they couldn't. The Boltons also had loyal followers.
  12. It isn't Robb. He was just an idiot who was never taught honor. The fool who did the most damage over the course of the story is Jon Snow. Snowflake gets no sympathy from me.
  13. Any detention facility housing Arya must be tightly secured. Her small size could squeeze through small spaces. I am thinking George would rather kill her off. I also do not think Arya will go to prison for her terrible crimes. It's just too bad she will almost certainly get a second life in her wolf.
  14. Dany is the one better for the job of ruling. Jon should have remained a foot soldier. That is something Dany does very well.
  15. What I would love to see is the rebirth of an Empire under Daenerys. Call it the new Great Empire or whatever. She would make a fine Empress to bring the world back into order after the long winter ends.
  16. That's not punishment. Lock Arya in a cell and let the Silent Sisters care for her with compassion until she leaves the world of the living. It is confinement for life but she will be fed and cared for.
  17. Contrary only because Sansa is neither brave nor bold. But if Petyr dangles a sweet prize. She could work up the courage to murder her little cousin.
  18. She's doing more than that. She's over dosing him with dangerous sedatives. Robert Arryn needs an adult to protect him from Petyr Baelish and Sansa Stark.
  19. Amazed at the dedication of those who maintain their ground and look for relevant clues. The Unsullied are awesome. They are my favorite fighting unit.
  20. The red wedding was a war strategy to get rid of a rebellious lord who got into his head to declare a portion of Westeros as his own kingdom. It may have saved a lot of loyalists' lives. Many more lives on both sides would have been lost if they had fought a traditional battle.
  21. The Freys do not deserve any more punishment. Cat and the nasty Wayman have done enough. Punish the Starks for dragging the Freys into their rebellion.
  22. It is pretty much confirmed. The hatching of her dragons confirmed Dany as Azor Ahai.
  23. Dany is going through the journey that all heroes go through. Slavery was not going away without the bad people who kept slaves putting up a fight. One of her task to reach greatness is to defeat the slavers. Her arc will lead her to rule Westeros and parts of Essos. Azor Ahai is only one of her roles but one that she has to accept before earning the iron throne.
  24. Three deaths were needed to bring three dragons back to life. Three deaths paid for three lives. A cool theory has been floated that souls are limited. Souls are recycled. Rhaego's soul is in Rhaegal, Viserys is in Viserion, and Drogo is in Drogon. Memories are gone but the soul remains alive.
