The Winterfell Huis Clos started as another attempt to elucidate the infamous letter received at the Wall by Jon Snow.

It grew into a lengthy analysis of the last four chapters mediated by Theon in Winterfell, with observations, conjectures, hesitations, uncertainties and even explanations all tentatively backed by textual evidence and reasoning.

A summary of the conclusions can be found here. The three ploys of the trickster, so to speak.

More on the maternal lineages of Lyanna Stark and Catelyn Tully, on the absurdity of Quentyn Martell's quest for the most beautiful woman in the world.

More on the Citadel: its origins, its influence, and current events in Oldtown.

Essentially, I have left the board in May 2012. Since then I have written in friendly threads from time to time: on the Nightfort, on Sweetrobin, on Sansa and Harrenhal, on the snowstorm in Winterfell, on the Grand Northern Conspiracy, on the Quiet Isle. And I have contributed for some time the Jon Snow reread project.
