ChaosImprisonateMe Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 As of now the Lannisters are responsible for Westeros even though they don't have the support they want. I guess that the question that comes into play is what happens if Dany comes to Westeros with her force? The way I see it is that a lot of the families will either stay neutral or ally with Dany. The problem I see with the Lannisters is the fact that they did a lot of attrocities against the Targaryns. What happens after Dany should take King's Landing is another story entirely. It could be said that the story changes if Dany is forced to go up North to face the threat of the Others, however it seems a bit farfetched that her army would be used to those conditions.

danm_999 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 It's not even inevitable Dany will even make it to Westeros at this point, so to say the Lannisters are inevitably doomed seems rather premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marquis de Leech Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The Lannisters are a large family. They're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosImprisonateMe Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Do you think a peace could be made with the other families should they maintain their rule? I'm skeptical about that. Obviously it is possible in a vague sense. I feel if Sansa took power in the North for example she seems to have heart to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost certaintly I think they'll lose the Iron Throne, maybe even Casterly Rock. But they have many branches and holdings (like the Lannisport-Lannisters) so I'd be surprised if they were completely extinguished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosImprisonateMe Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 If Dany's force doesn't fall apart I feel they will definitely cause a blow to the Lannisters, whether they come victorious or not. Its because of this it seems that they would gather their power to fight off the blow. Do you think Dany has it in for the Lannisters, or do you think her ambitions force her to think above that?

JonCon's Red Beard Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 If Tyrion is with Dany, some nice Lannister won't be harmed. But I think they're more in danger of being killed during certain wedding than by Dragons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gertrude Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I don't see the Lannisters holding onto the throne at all. I don't know who will hold it, but I predict a not-a-Lannister. The family is fine, Cersei and her brood are doomed. Jaime - I don't see him making it out either, and if he does squeak by, he'll live a quiet life somewhere. Tyrion's fortune is tied to Dany, so I want to see good things for him. My 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARYa_Nym Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I would only believe that if someone went to the Westerlands and started killing the rest of them. The Lannisters of Casterly Rock may die out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosImprisonateMe Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'm pretty much playing devil's advocate because I actually don't believe Dany will be able to get there. However, should she get there, the Lannisters would be the forefront of the blow... realistically. Of course anything could go right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithras Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I think Gerion Lannister will return and claim the CR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyoftheNorth72 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 "As of now the Lannisters are responsible for Westeros even though they don't have the support they want."Actually they're kind of not. The Lannister Regent is dead, clearing the way for the Tyrells to easily take over the regency. Tywin and Kevan are dead. Jaime is no politician and may be dead or doomed. Cersei would have to work faster and smarter than she is capable of to return to power. It's the roses for now, and since they were Targ loyalists, Dany probably won't be harsh with them even if she should conquer. "The problem I see with the Lannisters is the fact that they did a lot of attrocities against the Targaryns."The CR Lannisters did. The family has many branches. Those responsible for the deaths of Rhaegar, Elia and her children are all dead (well, one may be dead-ish). If Dany were to get her hands on Jaime, I suppose his fate would rest on whether Dany knew/believed the truth about her father by then. "It could be said that the story changes if Dany is forced to go up North to face the threat of the Others, however it seems a bit farfetched that her army would be used to those conditions."Dragons are probably useful in cold climates. "I feel if Sansa took power in the North for example she seems to have heart to do so."Based on what? We are never given any clue as to her thoughts on LF's HH scheme.

Olligarchy Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 The Lannisters are fine. Even under the worst of circumstances Daenarys won't have the strength or backing to start a full scale extermination of an entire family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarieAntoinette Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 It think the Cersei-Jaime line will be destroyed completely, but the whole family won't be extinguished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unSonofStannis Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 It think the Cersei-Jaime line will be destroyed completely, but the whole family won't be extinguished. Its pretty much a given at this point, I think Gerion, Lancel or Tyrek will end up as the head of the house, Tyrion will occupy CR for a time but will die most likely at the vengeful hands of a Lannister like Lancel.

unSonofStannis Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 It think the Cersei-Jaime line will be destroyed completely, but the whole family won't be extinguished. And I base this on my belief that Lancel will regain his sense of loyalty to his house but still retain his new found faith and be a very pious lord of CR, a completely 360 from Tywin at the beginning of the story.

Fire Eater Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I think Gerion Lannister will return and claim the CR. I think he would do that only if all the Lannister siblings died along with Cersei children, Kevan's family, and Tygett is confirmed dead. Also, if Tyrion has a daughter she would have to give up her claim to CR, likely if she wants to marry a Lord Paramount (Rickon). Long story short, I see Gerion being Lord of CR in ADoS Epilogue. It think the Cersei-Jaime line will be destroyed completely, but the whole family won't be extinguished. Agreed, Cersei's line will be extinguished. Although, I think Jaime might have a bastard son by Brienne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Wedding Cake Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Even if Cersei, Jaime, and Tyrion bite the bucket and Lancel renounces his claim to join the faith, there is still Kevan Lannister's children: Martyn and Janei. Tygett Lannister's son, Tyrek, may still be alive and is brought up as recently as aFFC. There are also some Freys that are grandchildren of Genna Lannister. And those are just the Lannisters listed on the wiki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
