Phylum of Alexandria Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Scorn = dislike/have contempt for Arse = ass. When Ned entered the throne room at the end of Robert's Rebellion, he found Jaime seated on the iron throne, and has distrusted Jaime ever since. Jaime feels that Ned should have thanked him for killing the king, given how brutal Aerys was toward Ned's family. But instead Ned judged him as a king slayer, an oath breaker, and a Lannister with his own ambitions to the throne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rondo Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Jaime is a scumbag. Filth. Ned judged him correctly. Jaime is a kingslayer and an oathbreaker. Crippler of children, though I care not for Bran. Cuckolder of a king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
