Tywin Smokin a Blunt Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Do you think she ends up at Greywater Watch, and/or meets Howland Reed? I had not thought we'd ever see or hear from him on the show, but if she's already in the neighborhood... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imp Beyond the Wall Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Worth hoping for. Mayhap he can shed some light on Jon, Lyanna and Ned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tadco26 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 The show ignores geography and the time it would take to realistically travel places all the time, so I expect they will just end up in the north with no explanation of how they got there.

Tbh I don't even think viewers know Jojen and Meeras name, let alone last name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrion4President Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Im not going to get into how they may run into Howland Reed but if it happens I would imagine a few lines of dialog could clear up who he is. All Brienne has to do is mention the name Stark and he can be like "oh my children are with two of the Stark boys" also revealing that they arent dead. This could then lead to convo regarding Robb's death and his heir to the throne. Which would then bring up Jon and his parentage assuming R+ L = J is fact. Really wouldnt take much more than 5 minutes of screen time and would most likely be followed by a Jon scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grail King Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I don't think he's even been mentioned by name in the show. I think Jojen only talked about "his father" Bran to Jojen "Your father is Howland Reed" when they first met in the series. Jojen said it was the first time he saw his father cry when Ned Died.

Florina Laufeyson Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I don't think he's even been mentioned by name in the show. I think Jojen only talked about "his father" Bran talks about Howland and how he saved Ned. Super Casual viewers may have forgotten, but they didnt forget the Reed children. So if a character pops up going "My children, Meera and Jojen" they'll understand who it is. We can hope Howland shows up, but im not really banking on it. If Brienne and Pod wind up in Greywater Watch, it would make up for a lot of bullshit tbh. Now im gonna root for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgf Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I'm positive 99% of the unsullied don't know/care who the reeds are or why Howland is important I'm not sure that's correct. They may not know Howland by name, but I know a number of unsullied who are very intrigued by Jojen and Meera's father, at least since the "You're father told you about the war? Mine never did." line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woah, woah, woah. Hold on there. Being a bastard Stark is one thing. Being a Bastard Targaryen is another. As a bastard Stark you have a weak claim to Winterfell, possibly as Warden of the North. But as a bastard Targaryen you have claim to being king of the Seven Kingdoms. Plus, we cannot be too sure that he was a bastard. What if R+L got married? Targaryens were not opposed to having more than one wife. For all we know he might be legitimate. And if that is the case, being the only remaining male through the male line, he has a better claim to the Iron Throne than anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ni2tre Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I think the R+L=J stuff is too early for S5, seems more like post Ides stuff so Brienne meeting Howland Reed seems pointless unless there's more on him.Most likely Brienne's next scene will be in some unnamed place in the North, probably somewhere in the Barrowlands.

The Lady Lannister Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 They might do a Quiet Isle scene if Show!Hound survived. This would allow then to talk about suffering in the realm leading to the High Sparrow's power to put Cersei through the Walk of Shame.They could also talk about Rhaegar's rubies.

Sultan of Westeros Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 When i first heard the we will go around it from Brienne I instantly thought of Howland Reed and Grey Water watch because there is no going around Moat Cailin (which is the whole point of Moat Cailin and the reason why Moat Calin is such an important location for defense of North) unless crannogmen guide you through swamp but given the utter disregard and inconsistency of show for details they may just find brienne another way around Moat Cailin which would be another great blunder. But if we are in for Lizzard lions, swamps and crannogmen this season this will be a great departure from books because who does not want to meet Howland Reed and see Grey Water Watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hand of Jaime Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Is there an off chance that they go East around Moat Cailin and run into White Harbor? That'd be a great way to intro Wyman Manderly (especially with the potential Frey pie scene upcoming) and potentially bring Rickon back into the fold (perhaps he's got word from Last Hearth that they're harboring him there or were for a time before sending him elsewhere). It would also be a great chance to get another, "The North remembers," line into the mix :drool: Just thinking out loud here, of course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
