The Mountain That Posts Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 For me, trying to detangle the entire Northern Conspiracy as well as the mystery of the pink letter are easily the most intriguing part of the entire series so far.Meanwhile, I think while the mystery of Bran's assassination was super important and necessary, the way it ended up being just Joffrey(for some reason) and the way the characters get to that conclusion just because, really always was quite lame to me and one of the few instances where GRRM didn't think ahead enough while writing the first book.

Lady Blizzardborn Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I disagree about Joffrey being behind the attempt on Bran's life. It makes perfect sense, and helps set Joff up as the heartless little psycho that he is. It's underwhelming, but it's not lame. The biggest mysteries to me are often the ones that probably wouldn't make much difference to the story in the end. What happened to Gerion Lannister? Who was Night's King? Where is Tysha? That sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mdoggy Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 WHERE DID THE FREAKIN DIREWOLVES COME FROM? Where is the Direwolf dad? This has been bothering me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireandblood94 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Simply the biggest mystery is who will win the game of thrones? Many hours of reading and discussion and we still can't be sure. That's a sign of a great mystery :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracarys00 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I really want to know what happened to Benjen Stark and Tysha and what are Littlefinger's motives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Guy Garlan Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Agree with the OP. The Pink Letter is one of the best and the attempt on Bran's life is easily the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~DarkHorse~ Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I agree, the Pink letter is definitely one of the best. I find the Robert Strong/Qyburn stuff curiously disturbing and want to know the true purpose/origin/driving force behind the Others. The mystery surrounding the Winterfell crypts is also intriguing. The worst is obviously- Where do whores go? And what the heck happened to Robb Starks body (and head)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj4iy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Best one: Who is Jon's mother (or parents)? I would say that, given the insane amount of speculation and dissertations written on this one subject alone, it deserves the be the most compelling 'mystery' of the story. Worst one: Whether Aegon is the real heir or not. Really, to me, I just don't find this whole storyline very interesting, nor do I find any real reason to root for the kid or even believe his story. I just don't feel that it was brought about in a way that makes me care very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
