How do you know that? A few lines about cannibals doesn't mean everyone is a cannibal.

It's a theory and as baseless as everything else they say. Or at least baseless when they say it. Anyone one else, I'd prolly consider it.

That is not how it works, but you people are as stuck on your own thinking even more than North Koreans on their propaganda.

Which will in all probability tick people off more. I honestly, by now (as compared to a post from, say, September when I came back after a longgg forum break.) don't care about those darn TV shows: I would prefer TWOW or at least another volume of FaB and/or another batch of D&E.

There's just those jokes that have perfect timing and position.....cue the applause.

Discuss, y'all.

He could have died, that's a way to go down.

Geez, that person must hate Elendil. But tbh, what's wrong with Elendil? He's the dad of Isuldur, so he's Aragorn's........great-great-great-great-great-great-however many "great"s it is grandpa, who led the (seven, I think it was) ships away from Numenor. Doesn't seem so bad to me.

Of course. It's a darn shame, too, since I like Jaime (even AGOT Jaime).

A visit with a tall tree and a short rope, you mean?

That's an insult to R2D2. Artoo will have more character than the Stark fucker ("Why do you think I came all this way?") ever will, especially in S8. If you'll pardon my French.

There'll be a Feanor showing up, mark my words. Tolkien had one in the First Age.......Silmarillion lore.

Sacrilege! Incest is Wincest! The author of The Witcher must be a Tolkien clone......soon he'll be having people like Ecthelion running around. Yennefer....*chuckles.

All hail the one true king, King Hot of House Pie, King of the Andals, Rhoynar and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and Flea Bottom, Hero of the Pelennor Fields, King of Numenor under the sea, Gondor and all its domains, Fist of Bread, Azor Ahai, Slayer of the Others, Victor of Winterfell, Harrenhal and Helm's Gate, Breaker of Chains, Khal of the Great Brown Shitheap, new King of Angmar, Allegiant General of the First Order (virgins), Grand Moff of the Empire (chads), husband of Daenerys, the Merciful, the Compassionate, Champion of the Smallfolk, and hundreds of other titles.

Ravens? Vultures?

Political connections, possibly? Aerys might've thought that if he gave the Martell's a marriage opportunity, they would've supported him against Tywin and the Lannisters. Besides that, I don't know.

In the page on the Battle of the Blackwater, it says that Tywin "Having learned of Stannis' approaching attack on King's Landing and the alliance between then Iron Throne and House Lannister, Lord Tywin Lannister has marched his host south." Shouldn't this be House Tyrell, instead of House Lannister?

Well, for Tywin he apparently fought in the War of the Ninepenny Kings. Aside from that, and the Greyjoy Rebellion, Reyne/Tarbeck rebellion and the War of the Five Kings, there's nothing else. As for Jaime, I honestly don't know. Besides tourneys, and the Wot5K.

Your guess it as good as mine. It does sort of make sense. Alysanne was a bit of a hypocrite. First, she marries for love. She does at least permit Baelon and Alyssa to marry, Aemon and Jocelyn seem to have been happy. But then to everybody else she's just arranged, unhappy marriages are GREAT! Plus, Viserra wanted to do the same thing that Alysanne did, which was marry her brother. And on Viserra, shipping your fifteen year old daughter off to a frozen, hellish wasteland to marry a man old enough to be her grandpa is just cruel. And don't pull stuff like good relationships with the North as an excuse! There are better ways to do that than marrying your daughter to some old grandpa. Agree or disagree, @The Bard of Banefort?

No, no, no. You've called him the wrong thing. He's Ser Bronn of the fookin Blackwater, not just Bronn. This is known.

*shrugs. That was what I read last year.

There is a theory about that Alysanne was jealous or somesuch about Viserra.....I don't recall the specifics. But yes, thinking that betrothing her daughter to an old man who already has heirs (heirs to have a marriage with instead of some old man) is a bad idea.

No. The marriage was consummated and produced multiple children. I think it could be slightly possible with the bias towards men if it was the other way around, but the only way out a of a consummated marriage is for your husband to contract a sudden, fatal case of sword-through-bowels. (The woman needs to wait for her husband to kindly die is what I mean). The objections to that have nothing to do with age gaps (foriegn birth, "wrong gods", guards, language stuff). Indeed, one of the reasons everyone is so happy to see Viserys is that he has a beautiful wife in her childbearing years, which FaB went into briefly. Besides, we're talking about a situation with older man/younger woman.

Standard operating procedure. Didn't you hear? Also, @Megorova. Westeros doesn't care about "age gaps." This is the world where Sansa was married at twelve, and Unwin Peake's daughter died in childbirth at you guessed it, age twelve.
