Edgar Allen Poemont Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 My proposed final scene for GoT : Cut to Daenerys on bed. Gratuitously nude. Dany: Oh Jon, you make my skin burn with fire and my blood boil with passion. Take off your robe and show me your Lightbringer! Cut to Jon. Robe closed and looking sheepishly at the floor. Jon: Alas, oh fairest Khaleesi! My sword must wait until morning. Winter has already come. Cut to snowflake drifting softly to the ground. End scene.

Even if it's not Egg himself, the 'bald' head may nevertheless still be a symbolic allusion to him, the egghead of the undercover dragons being quite a distinctive recurring sign (think of Varys or Dany). P.S. Yes, I've been told to read them before, but I'm a stubborn bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, no, there are no symbolic allusions to Egg in the D&E novellas, because he is one of the protagonists, if not THE protagonist. Indeed, the D&E novellas are essentially about Egg (future Aegon V) "killing the boy to let man be born" with Dunk as a tutor, even if the stories are told from Dunk's POV. The main symbolism in The Mystery Knight resides in the "hatching" of Egg to become a Dragon. The baldness of Egg (hence his nickname) is just a practical way to hide his give-away Targaryen silver hair while he roams the 7K with Duncan the Tall and there is no symbolism there.
