I don't see that happening, given the sources. I agree. But since it'll be the last episode of the show, they might just skip that 'detail' and suddenly everyone knows and believes that Jon is the rightful heir.

Crona Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I would laugh so hard if the Arryn, Tullys, and Dorne arrive and Jon just hands the kingdom to them then leaves for the north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funpig Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 All the events in Episode 5 were at least plausible if a bit over the top (Mad Queen, Cleganebowl, Jaime/Cersai deaths). However i had a hard time understanding what Varys was trying to do. I had to re-watch the Varys scenes several times. I really want to know who he was writing to. All of the remaining armies of any major houses were already at Kings Landing. Winterfell and remaining northern houses followed Jon. The Arryn forces lead by Yohn Royce followed Jon. The Tully army was broken up and Edmure is still in prison. Dorne was beaten by Euron and Highgarden was beaten by the Lannisters. Yara only has a small splinter of the Greyjoy forces. So what did he hope to achieve by writing those letters? Yarys was always a survivor who served under so many Kings . I found it inconceivable that he would let himself be discovered and put to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticWeirwood Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 2 hours ago, snow is the man said: Why? In order for jon to be a targ it has to mean that rhaegar annulled his marriage to his dornish wife and made his children into bastards. Why would they follow him Prince Doran would never have agreed to that for his sister. The High Septon can do what he pleases, and there was enough time to have arranged for Elia's children to be left as legal issue even if she was herself granted a divorce.

Me, I want to know what Varys was trying to sneak into Dany's meals. Something to destabilize her, perhaps? I bet he succeeded! Even dead, the Spider's venom may still have worked its magic, just like the Red Viper's widow's blood poison that he snuck into Tywin's breakfast marked Tywin as a dead man shitting even after the Viper had himself perished beneath the Mountain.

And with how poorly this show is written, we will never find out for sure. As far as the issue in question though, we ABSOLUTELY know that the Targs have allowed polygamy in their dynasty so it is VERY possible that Elia and her children were still legal and recognized and Lyanna and Jon/Aegon were as well.

TtotheLannister Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Vary's hasn't been referred to as the Master of Whispers for a long time, but they made a point for Tyrion to call him that. Traditionally that title for the person who was listening to all the whispers but I think they've flipped it on it's head this time and he's doing all the whispering behind Dany's back. i.e telling all the houses than Jon is the true ruler and that he's worthy of the role.

He did tell the girl something along the lines of "try again later", so she was obviously not just watching the crazy queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
