  1. In Tyrion I of aSoS, we find an example of retrospective narration: This feels especially out of place since I can't come up with any other instances of this type of narration in asoiaf, but I might be wrong; are there any other examples of this retrospective narration in asoiaf? It could be true that Tyrion is doing this type of reflection in the moment, and not shifting to the future to think about the past, but I don't know.
  2. I think there's no question about whether or not Theon has been castrated, for example he says he is unable to have sex with Jeyne (why would anyone be unable to have sex in any other case?), he doesn't want to be disrobed in front of Roose (PTSD) and when a spearwife talks to him he says he can never experience such joy again (referring to having sex). I don't think Ramsay is interested in this at all, he means to keep Theon as Reek, only letting him out of the dungeons to help solidify the marriage; which was on Roose's orders, and take Moat Cailin. Additionally, Ramsay gets furious when Roose takes Reek, so why would he have any interest in ever using him as a bargaining chip for a hostage exchange.
  3. From Reek I aDwD What is Theon thinking about here? What could be worse than taking another finger if we accept that he's already been castrated?
  4. It's very important to realise (and I hope the publishers realise as well) that they should publish all the material they have, at least what GRRM is content with, as pushing chapters to ADOS will result in them getting voided. At this rate GRRM will never finish ADOS. Furthermore, while it's good news and seems to point to a right direction, we have had no hints that GRRM is working on Winds for the last couple of months. He has been travelling a lot, doing shows, etc. Keep in mind that when he is working on Winds, he likes posting about it, which we saw in 2020 during Covid and 2022, but he hasn't posted anything about making progress on Winds for the past two years.
  5. It doesn't matter who Azor Ahai is; what matters is that it's a story device to get characters to do something in someone else's interests (which also matches GRRM's opinion on religion). This is to say Azor Ahai doesn't and will not exist.
  6. His marriage is done by a septon, meaning Tyrion got married under the Faith.
  7. George pushed Dance out the door without finishing it. Don't put this past him.
  8. It's not a problem at all, both Storm and Dance were split in two for foreign paperback releases. I don't see why Winds would be a different case.
  9. Would he finish part two faster? George is itching to go on a book-tour again, and he didn't write anything for 6 months after the Dance book tour.
  10. I believe he finished Dance in April, and it was published in July. So three months, maybe two.
