Landed Knight

Landed Knight (6/8)

  1. The wildings will run her out of the North if she tried to sell them that story. Jon is not AA. He's the Night's King reborn.
  2. Jon didn't set out to weaken the watch but that was what he was doing. Jon had to choose between the watch and Arya. He chose Arya even when he knew it would weaken the watch and risk the safety of everybody in Westeros. He was just somebody who should have never been chosen to lead. There was no time to formally charge Jon with treason because he was ready to lead the wildlings out.
  3. The Starks are too prideful for that. Walder should have milked the advantage for all it was worth and required more from Robb.
  4. Walder has no history of trouble-making. It is the Starks who have that unpleasant reputation. Remember what Brandon Stark did before the rebellion. He made threats to harm the ruling family. It is also beginning to look like, per Barbrey Dustin's words, that the Starks were part of a devious secret plan to remove the Targaryens from power. Cat's reaction to what happened to her son is what started the war of the five kings. I know it is mostly Jaime's fault but Cat should have known better than kidnapping Tyrion.
  5. The Unsullied will be fighting a Westeros army made up of laborers and farmers who occasionally play at soldiering. Don't expect much fight from Westeros. It will be much easier to just start another field of fire and barbecue the Stark forces and their wildling friends rather than going through the trouble of meeting them in open battle.
  6. The head of the Frey family might surprise us and outlive the Starks.
  7. Protecting the wall was not what Jon was doing in his last chapters of life. He was undermining the wall. He wasn't doing this on purpose but he chose to risk them all for the sake of finding his sister. He wasn't plotting against the wall. Jon is not smart enough for that. What he was doing to get Arya was causing problems for the Watch.
  8. Skahaz is indeed loyal. His loyalty opens the way for Daenerys to leave Meereen in capable hands so she can claim her father's kingdom that is now hers.
  9. Harrenhal was also a huge chunk of stone and mortar. It burned and melted like wax. Three dragons would make short work of Casterly Rock. I would love to see the dragons bake the Lannister scum, however, Jaime already had a vision of ice wights attacking the castle. Lord One-Hand will freeze in his castle as the poor outside his walls.
  10. Tywin is as responsible for what happened to Elia and the children as Jon Snow is for the crimes committed by Mance and the wildling women. Both commanders unleashed savage criminals.
  11. The Targaryens were tolerant of the Starks. The North is poor and revenues from taxes were most likely paltry. Aegon removed Black Harren and saved Westeros from Ironborn domination. The Starks should be thankful.
  12. Dany's fires serve many purposes. The first fire cremated Drogo and punished the witch. Witch's blood added to Khal Drogo's and the stallion's made the magic more powerful. The second fire will cremate Aegon and execute Euron. The blood of Pyat Pree will provide the magic. Burning the Silence will take the part of the Stallion. More dragons eggs will hatch. Jon Snow, Mellissandre, and Ghost will burn in the third fire. More dragons will hatch. Mellissandre will try to fool the people to accept Jon Snow as Azor Ahai. She and Jon will be roasted for this crime.
  13. I doubt mathematical expressions and equations are relevant but one number is special. The number 3 is specifically connected to the story's protagonists, Daenerys Targaryen.
  14. There is a big problem with the plan. Gilly's child is in danger. What if the witch sacrifices the boy without asking Jon first? This decision once again proves Jon's biased and emotional way of making decisions. He liked Mance and didn't like Craster. Therefore he valued one life more than the other. Based on how he felt about their fathers. Jon had no business commanding and even less ruling the Watch.
  15. I would risk a bet that those who did were fans of Jon Snow. Their boy, you see, failed and was killed by his own men. Daenerys will succeed in Meereen and then onto to Westeros to save what's left and rule from her father's throne.
