Who was Master of Coin before Littlefinger? Who was Master of Laws before Renly? Who was on the Kingsguard before Arys Oakheart? What role does the Master of Laws even play?

S. D Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Can you ask if Renly loved Loras and his brothers. Cause he died a fairly unknown quality and I fear we'll never know :-( I think he did but I want to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRRM confirmed Renly was gay and that Robert loved his brothers in his own way a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grey Wolf Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Please ask him where the hell Baratheon comes from? Is it the surname of Orys's mother? Her husband? A dragonlord family now dead and therefore unable to take offense? A Valyrian word that was given by Lord Aerion as a nickname that took on a life and meaning of own?

Yeah but I want to know how Renly felt about Loras and the Tyrells and his brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jussi Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 You could ask what will be the title of the second volume of Fire & Blood. I originally thought that the books will be named "Fire & Blood: Volume One" and "Volume Two". But the first book seems to be just "Fire & Blood" without volume number. Maybe the second book will have a completely new title? Martin said yesterday in Not a Blog: Quote FIRE & BLOOD, the first volume of my history of the Targaryen kings, will be published on November 20.

Daendrew Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 I think I will ask him "how many children Duncan Prince of Dragonflies had with Jenny of Oldstones to see if he will pass on the question or not. The official tree shows that they didn't have any kids. But those kids would be legitimate Targs. I once theorized that Davos was a decdendant of Duncan but I don't think the years match up.

Lord Varys Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 They could make the second volume of FaB 'Blood and Fire' and reveal that those are the words of House Blackfyre ;-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What should we ask him? You are so lucky. I can't get away from school to go. I would ask how Daenerys knew she was the one to be able to bring back the dragons from dead stone? That is an amazing moment in the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wolves Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Ask him if he is planning or planned to write more history books for ASOIAF like TWOIAF and F&B. Like a history book for the Starks, Arryns, Martells, etc... the great houses could fill up volumes alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, how do you write a history for an 8000 year old dynasty like the Starks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 We posted the video here. No particularly insightful questions were asked by fans, there was only time for three of them. Conversation with Hodgman was good, though, so it's worth the watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Well, my biggest theory that was fundamentally wrong but got some things right (so much so that D&D used it on GoT, apparently. :P) is the Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory, aka GUCT, which posited that Littlefinger was behind a lot of the events of AGoT for the purpose of causing chaos. Most significantly, and centrally, and entirely wrongly, was the idea that he had arranged the attempt on Bran (that's the bit the TV show apparently decided to do, so my theory was right, just not for the ASoIaF canon :P) It consumed the predecessor forum from ACoK until the release of ASoS. Lots and lots of pages going over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im interested in what thoughts you may have had regarding plans for Harrenhal, Sansa, and what his end game might be in the books. I completely hate the way he was handled in the last half of the show up to his final fate. I really enjoy the Youtube videos you and Linda used to do. You all still do some, but not so much discussion on theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots and lots of pages going over it. Ran, I'm going to build my courage and ask you here directly, especially since you worked on TWoIaF and probably know how invested George is stuff on Essos. Do you think the Exodus theory holds any water? The link to it is in my signature; it's a bit old and I may need to update it with new details and some textual references, but it should serve. Just don't go into the comments, as there are some references to the show. You don't have to check it if you think it might spoil you too much, but on the other hand, if it can be shut down you would be the one to know. Also, do you happen to know if anyone guessed that the Red Wedding (or something similar) will happen before ASoS was released? Or was it crackpot at that time that Robb might get killed?
