Night'sQueen Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I find the current batch much tougher than first round. And I love your lioness, Castellan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wiki says something about his being older and flabby compared to when he washed up and I was thinking roughly same as as Stannis because I had impression Stannis and Robert were children when the ship went down, But of course everyone in the books is doing stuff at a much younger age than you expect and I can't help being influenced by the show so Stannis is probably only in his 30s or something in the books. Aegon is not truly old either is he? In his 50s? I completely understand being influenced by the show. I often find things I thought were the same in the books are actually different. I put Patchface in his 30s, as you say similar to Stannis. I must admit I thought Jinglebell was older but he is apparently in his 50s. I had forgotten he was Stevron's son, not Walder's. I really should read the wiki more while answering these clues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castellan Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'll say. I'm going to play with that search engine now. I have got ASOIF electronically (the only way I can read now) but I rarely bother to reread unless I seem to have got most of a meaning but can't quite pin it down. Or the wiki says something a but vague that sounds like it could be relevant to the clue so I go the reference and look in detail. But I don't have the other stuff in e-book. PS I just solved a clue with my first search. Rather a sneaky clue I don't think I could have solved it without this. I had already searched the wiki and not found it. I am going to see if I get it from the wiki if I type the same term in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ambition is set quite low in this game. I have never used the Search of Ice and Fire. Seems I should do. Maybe I'll save it for next game. I have very occasionally searched words in my ebooks.
