Bronn Stone Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Probably too much to hope for::)I can see her not reading the whole line, but can't see why she'd refuse to say "Dorne". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWHamel Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 "...and Daenerys set foot on the shores of Dorne."I'm thinking that's a really good guess. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalbear Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 It implies that they're not in Dorne yet, but they're ready to go there. That's a pretty big indicator of where the book ends.Though it's the epilogue, right? I'd think that it'd be a character that's going to die or something along those lines. Some words it's likely not:DeathDracarysDohaeris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalbear Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 No, it wasn't a death. AGOT, ACOK and AFFC didn't end with an epilogue. Only ASOS (and I believe, ADWD) did. That's why I figured it was such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExLibris Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I don't want to read anything until I have the book in my hand...but damn, look at that stack of paper! :eek: Time machine please? :read: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I figured it was such.Could be something like this:The Assassin felt a sharp pain in his back, and saw a thin blade sprout from his chest. A voice whispered behind him, "Is there gold in the village?" His last sight before his vision clouded over was of his target Daenyerys Targaryen stepping from the gangplank onto Dorne.Haha.

The Scabbard Of the Morning Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Are you kidding, the entire enterprise was so she can come here and watch us buzz around like bees trying to parse every word she read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faint Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Oh man, too much information to process. My brain is on over drive about what all this text could mean. I have to agree with Ran though, the Victarion one seems the most spoilerish. It almost sounds like he lost the whole fleet.Edit: Actually, now that I think on it, the Bolton one seems pretty spoilerish as well. Almost as if there is an assassin in his party who is taking down targets or the North is already rebelling under his rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aegor_storm Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Maybe he has a note in the back like at the end of Feast.... "And don't worry folks this time next year Winds of Winter will be in your hands because it is Done" :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faint Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Yeah, and I think Werthead was on the right track about the last word being "Dorne."I'm trying to think what other word starting with a D, that we already know, would be spoilerish within the context of it being the single final word in the book.

Mjolnir Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Gah ... gah! I don't want spoilers, but I must click obsessively on every goddamn ADWD-related thing in search of news about who is in and who is out! All I want is a King's Landing political maneuvering awesomeness chapter!Edit: Since I really shouldn't come in and bitch without playing: That Tyrion chapter is from the mid-400 page point, which leads me to wonder exactly how much travelling Tyrion's going to do before he -- I presume -- tends in the direction of Meereen. This suggests we might get a considerable chunk of the Tyrion roadshow, which is pretty cool.Also: still kind of sad they did such severe cutting at the eleventh hour but dang that book is huge! 1547 ms pages, still the longest book in the series by a hair's-breadth. No wonder it took the poor guy so long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datepalm Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Does no one have a working theory on who's the sibling narrating an escape from KL? I got nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iheartseverus Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Does no one have a working theory on who's the sibling narrating an escape from KL? I got nothing. :dunce: And its obviously a POV character. I thought we knew who all the upcoming POV characters were going to be. Or, don't we?
