Moiraine Sedai Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Jojen Porridge is made from Bran’s friend. Theoretically, based on the twisted logic in the tale, it should have a more potent effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shade of the Evening has a taste of flesh, but it’s probably just Dany’s memory being stimulated by the drug. Bran’s porridge had the look of blood. I think Jojen was sacrificed to make the dish. The little crannog boy is in the ingredients. The porridge is more potent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea that Jojen makes up part of the paste that weds Bran to the tree has always grossed me out a bit. He might be what can be referred to as holy blood given his prophetic abilities and greensight. So that makes for a more powerful magic. I'm reminded that Sam had to take an oath three times to keep silent about Bran. Once each to Coldhands, Bran and Jojen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LynnS Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 If you have to have weirwood nut paste to be wed to the tree; Bloodraven must have gone through the same ritual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think it should have been more potent, and what should it have done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He experienced what he saw, like tasting the blood of the man who was murdered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
