Darth Sidious

Willas is an unknown but he would make a good consort for Daenerys and bring House Tyrell to the Targaryen banner. The Tyrells were loyal to the Targaryens and that loyalty should transfer to Daenerys. Marriage is not the only way to bind the Tyrells. Daenerys could offer Wiilas the Office of Hand of the Queen. Generosity in the form of giving part of the Stormlands to the Tyrells would win their gratitude a second time.

Proving who Arya is, or was, will be tough. Sansa too. I think Sansa will die a bastard. Arya likely will be revealed for a Stark right before she is killed.

Daenerys is more intelligent than Jon. She has more self control and better at governing. Jon had an obedient and organized Night’s Watch handed to him and he managed to screw it up.

I have no sympathy for Jon Snow. I’d rather he stay dead and gone. He was given the duty to guard the Wall and lead the Watch. He screwed it all up for Arya and the other Starks.

The Five Forts and the Wall serve to keep dangerous elements away from the human world. They are borders between civilized and barbarians. Bran Stark is the big bad. Bran is the real head villain. Quaithe is Shiera Seastar or Ellissa Farman. Daenerys is Azor Ahar. Braavos will support Daenerys and her military campaigns. Volantis will be overthrown by the city slaves. Mance +Lyanna = Jon Snow Samwell will blow the horn and bring down the citadel, killing the maesters inside. The Kings Of Winter were servants of the others. Dragonstone will erupt and more dragon eggs will be found.

Jon’s decision to march on the Boltons is clearly wrong. He was the lord commander of an organization who has to stay neutral. It’s not his job to help Arya.

Sure, but that doesn’t change the fact that Arya is crazy.

So Catelyn murdered Jinglebells Frey. She had more killed after coming back. I don’t have the kill count for Catelyn but I think Arya has already killed more. The nature v. nurture works to explain Arya but not wholly. A lot of kids suffered more and they don’t turn into killers.

A sense of right and wrong in the beginning that have since been corrupted. Though the causes are many, some were out of her control, some were choices, and then the Tully madness talked about might have made their contributions to Arya’s current mental condition. Sandor and Jaquen damaged Arya because they were homicidal role models.

Arya has a clearly defined but very tragic role. We already saw from the five books released so far. She is the revenge mechanism for the Starks. She is consumed and will be consumed by revenge. She will die before the end of A Dream of Spring after killing Ramsay. Happiness and glory are not in the cards for Arya. She chose death and it will come to embrace and take her.

Kingdoms and thrones aren’t built on nice. I like Visenya almost as much as I like Daenerys. Daenerys is my favorite. The Starks butchered their way to power in the north. The Hoares did their bloody work to keep control of the river lands. The masters killed slaves all the time and many times for entertainment. Visenya did nothing unreasonable. Maegor was the best man for the job and gave the faith a severe beating.

The first Lannister allegedly stole Casterly Rock. That aside, the Targaryens own Westeros and Cersei stole from Robert who stole from the Targaryens.

Dragonstone fits because the Heir would normally start there. Dany is the Heir. The climate agrees with her dragons. And it is between Essos and Westeros.

A long winter and the ansence of sunlight will destroy the governing system of Westeros. If you notice, George is slowly preparing his characters for basic survival. Those who can hunt, skin the game, cook, and defend themselves will live. People are reverting back to hunter gatherers. Sansa can’t survive in this setting.

Dragonstone is fine because of its proximity to KL.

The tingling sensation, well, the stranger invaded her personal space and made uninvited physical contact. Slight discomfort is to be expected. I have a further theory. Quaithe is Elissa. Some life extension magic keeps Elissa alive and it causes her body temperature abnormal.

Environment helped to push Arya along. We can’t take that excuse away but what she inherited from the Tully half is a cause as well.

She was the one they were waiting for. More than waiting. They orchestrated her birth by following prophecy.

I hate Jaime. I want Drogon to burn Jaime to crispy bacon level of well-done. However, it will be Cat/LSH and Bran who will kill Jaime.

Dany is the better ruler. She is a lot smarter than Jon. She controls her emotions better.

Bran and Catelyn will kill Jaime. Aegon and Daenerys haven’t met Jaime. He’s a distant enemy who killed a man they never knew. Margery gets her power from the Lannisters. And Maggy was only taunting Cersei.

Ancient powers are waking.

May the 4th be with you Rickon beat him to cannibalism.

Daenerys is so much better at leading, ruling, and governing than Jon. The challenges she faces at Slaver’s Bay is greater. But then, she is greater than Jon in every positive aspects of ruling. Jon’s level of incompetence and ethics were such that the men he led were compelled to get rid of him. Daenerys has thousands of followers who are loyal by choice.

If you look at Arya’s training and think of vocation then yes. Punishment, justice, and public safety require punishment for Arya. She’s a violent criminal who needs a lengthy prison sentence.
