Mithras Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 The Targaryens always gave their fallen to the flames. Quhuru Mo would not allow a funeral pyre aboard the Cinnamon Wind, so Aemon’s corpse had been stuffed inside a cask of blackbelly rum to preserve it until the ship reached Oldtown. A widow brought the dried corpse of her husband, covered with a crust of silvered leaves; such remnants were believed to have great power, especially if the deceased had been a sorcerer, as this one had. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Blizzardborn Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 After taming Viserion to a point (with Tyrion's help) they'll point him at Aemon's cask and have Jorah shout "Dracarys." No better funeral pyre for a Targaryen than one fueled by dragonfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanna Stormborn Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Excellent question PW!! I hope he at least gets a proper Targaryen send off, whatever is the tradition for their family he deserves only the best. Are you thinking someone might do something weird with his body?

Good Guy Garlan Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Aemon will have a burial fit for the king he could have been. Oldtown will be his funeral pyre; Euron will see to it :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon rhaegar stark Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 if he takes the body of aemon to danny and explains how it was the old man tried to reach out to her despite his age and unable to take the voyage and wanted to help her but died during the voyage making danny to lit the fire on his pyre and give proper send away to demon ...which makes me think it will satisfy the prophecy about three fires to lit..if we believe drogo funeral fire was to give live for dragons ...then aemon's can be fire lit for the dead and they both are relation to her but iam not fully confident of this ...but i dont think that danny will straight away start to believe marwyn so if he explains about aemon and he is there on his stead will make her beleieve him ....do u think it might be possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Summer Islander Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Marwyn will take Aemons face a la faceless men, he will go to Dany and pretend to be Aemon. He will get close to her and kill one of her dragons or steal one. Is one of the people Quaithe warned her not to trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were witnesses. Quaithe was in Essos while Alleras is studying in Oldtown. I take it you haven't figured out the riddle of the Sphinx.

Quaithe was in Essos while Alleras is studying in Oldtown. I take it you haven't figured out the riddle of the Sphinx. s i know that sphinx actually is sarella sand and thats wat made me think her as quaithe who is a women ..and sarella is alleras then she has access to glass candles i believe quaithe whoever she is speaking through glass candles bcoz i dont believe that quaithe is a version of danny's future i know that she cant be there but is there a chance she might have been there in qarth so she can see for herself the dragons ...bcoz ones dragons were born the glass candles would have start burning and sarella could have gone to see danny and dragons in qarth..and she is the one who tells other novices in oldtown of danny and dragons in FFC prologue and the fact that danny always asks quaithe to not give riddles and give straight warnings ...and this may also refer quaithe as alleras ..but again i maybe wrong its only wat i felt when i read the last two books so forgive me if iam wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mithras Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share Posted June 13, 2014 Sorcerers pay dear sacrifices to learn magic. There was a rumor about Rohanne Webber that she was selling her unborn children to a dark power. Whether it was true or false, the idea here is to sacrifice reproductive ability and/or offspring to do powerful magic. That is why some people including me think that Varys is a sorcerer and he willingly sacrificed his manly parts to learn magic. This looks like the vow of celibacy for the maesters who dedicate their lives to scholarship and learning. The maesters sacrifice their surnames and right to father children for knowledge. Therefore, I think the maesters and the sorcerers are not so different factions. For example Gilly considered both of them as the same thing (though it might be only in the show). I think Aemon’s body might be a powerful magical artifact because of Aemon's kingsblood and his status as somewhat similar to a sorcerer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he would leave with the Cinnamon Wind and as far as we know Aemon's body was still in that cask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
