Hand to King Davos Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 If Theon and/or Asha are sacrificed to resurrect Jon Special Snowflake, especially because Roose and Ramsay are right there ready to fulfill the "Two kings to wake the dragon, first the father, then the son" prophecy thing. All they have to do is crowned themselves as Lady Dustin thinks they will What is this prophecy? Never heard of it before. To the OP, nothing really. Too deep in now. Although Arya killing Jon or vice versa would be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodor the Articulate Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Nothing. TWOW could be just a picture of turd and I'd still read it. I didn't spend this much time waiting and theorising to not finish the damn series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj4iy Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 What is this prophecy? Never heard of it before. To the OP, nothing really. Too deep in now. Although Arya killing Jon or vice versa would be close. From Jon I in ADWD: Burning dead children had ceased to trouble Jon Snow; live ones were another matter. Two kings to wake the dragon. The father first and then the son, so both die kings. The words had been murmured by one of the queen’s men as Maester Aemon had cleaned his wounds. Jon had tried to dismiss them as his fever talking. Aemon had demurred. “There is power in a king’s blood,” the old maester had warned, “and better men than Stannis have done worse things than this.” The king can be harsh and unforgiving, aye, but a babe still on the breast? Only a monster would give a living child to the flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie Lannister Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Nothing at this point, I'm way too invested. Even if the series went to utter shit I'd stay on the train til the ride's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It theoretically could be Dany, but I don't think it quite fits. We'll see, though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady jellybean Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 oh I dont know I would love to see her become queen of the others. Something like lets stop this stupid war, lets call a truce we will give you sansa as your new queen and you go back up north. That sounds like a win/win to me. Ends war and no more sansa chapters.

Red Wedding Cake Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 It depends what's taking up my free time. There's a lot of entertainment these days, and every year the book doesn't come out the more I forget the complexities of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l2 0 5 5 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 "Because fuck yeah, Victarion" is going to be my personal motto since now :lol: Just read this. Absolutely brilliant. Laughed so hard at the northern army telling Jon, "Not yet, Jon. There's still plots to be twisted." And Howland running out of the court yelling R+L=J.

The Wight Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Easy, if the 1st chapter of WoW starts with a completely dead Jon and Bowen Marsh's knife catches fire revealing Bowen as AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taenqyrhae Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I think if my theory becomes true and the real Arya marries Ramsay Bolton, and they become a power couple, a lot of Arya fans will quit reading. They will have the perfect meet cute story "I had heard that my impostor married him, so I came to set things straight. When our eyes met, though...." Edit: I obviously meant Ramsay from context, just had a brain fart. Plus it's fun to say Roose. Roose. Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dread pirate davos Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I've only gave up on one series I was really invested in and that was the walking dead. I stopped somewhere after issue 100 because it was just full of false tension and cliffhangers and situations where nothing happens, basically it just felt dragged out. So for me to give up on asoiaf it'd have to be announced that there'd be ten books, more fake deaths, descriptions of food and for things to just stop happening.

The Gallows Knight Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I will stop reading once Stannis fails/dies/becomes evil. I have already been annoyed enough with the tv show to stop watching it, for the books it isn't a question of if but of when I tap out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I lose interest, I really don't bother with it anymore. I get bored and have to find something new and interesting to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twenty of House Goodmen Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I will stop reading once Stannis fails/dies/becomes evil.You realize that chances are he'll fulfill one of those three by the next book right? Technically he's already an antagonist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmarshal Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 When Martin takes forever pills and declares Dreams would happen on the year 2040. Love the series, but once it gets to the 2020 point and the show becomes canon for a butt load of new readers, I would probably lose interest and have to worry of kids at that point and other adult stuff, the woes of becoming a adult.
