Darth Sidious

The Freys enjoy Lannister protection. Hoster, Robb, and Tywin are gone. Walder outlived them all. He doesn’t need Aegon’s protection right now. The closest threats are the wolfpack and the Brotherhood. Roslin’s child is a future threat. I wouldn’t want Jeyne to birth Robb’s baby. That’s no good for peace.

Meera can find a way.

Personal interests can override religious faith. Just look at Robb. He swore an oath to Walder but his feelings for Jeyne turned him into an oathbreaker.

The Bran-Joffrey comparison is fair. Bran will have more capacity for evil because he has no restraints. I would love it if the Reed girl could see Bran for what he is becomng and have to make the decision to take drastic action to stop him.

Names in some instances could be correlated to the blood family. Tyrion = little Ty, for being the son of Tywin. Craster = Starc = Stark. Supports the belief that Craster is a Stark. There are clues to point the reader to this conclusion. Karstark = Stark Then the most important. Drogon = little Drogo.

Godhood! What a scary thought to make Bran the Great Other. He doesn’t have the maturity to control his feelings. And no one to correct him. Kinda reminds you of Joffrey. The Starks kept the Greenseers strong through human sacrifice. The blood feed the trees and the trees feed the Greenseers. Ned broke the tradition and weakened the Greenseers. The Weirwood in Winterfell is the altar feeding all of the Greenseers. The Starks must always be present to feed the tree.

House Tully will die with Edmure. A fitting punishment for what they did to the Goodbrooks. They deserve it for joining Robert’s Rebellion.

Daenerys. Let’s pick up where A Dance With Dragons ended on the Dothraki Sea.

For sure, Asshai. Tyrosh and Lys.

There is no justice in your proposal. All the guilty are dead. It need not involve any more.

Robb and Karstark. There were problems with that. Karstark was an important contributor to the rebellion. It was dumb to kill him. Robb should have pardoned Karstark. Jon made a bigger mistake when he killed Slynt. It was wrong ethically and even more wrong politically. Dany can execute the slavers because of their past crimes against humanity. She conquered them and not bound to accept their old laws. The wine bearing kids should be spared. And she did. The Meerenese lost. They have to accept Dany’s laws. She gets to set the rules.

The triangle was Tyrion, Jon, and Arya. Arya’s age make that less likely with Tyrion. Jon died. He’ll be another Coldhands when he comes back. Arya is going crazy. This trio is out. It’s Petyr Baelish, Harry, and Sansa that’s gonna have a love triangle. Sansa loses both ways.

Sometimes names are given after the fact. I wouldn’t think the Bloodstone Emperor was called that during his time. The name came after. Bloodstone because he was sacrificing blood to the stone. The stone is the black object that came from the sky. Sort of like the story in Heavy Metal.

Arya’s chosen life will be filled with blood and grief. It’s not going to be a happy one.

That would make Stannis a liar who allowed the most dangerous enemy of Westeros avoid punishment. He has not been recognized as a king and doesn’t have the power to pardon a big time criminal like Mance. It is very bad public relations.
