Kaisia Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yeah, I have only read through the first few chapters of AFFC, and this still has not happened yet -- definitely not in ASOS. Such is the peril of reading about characters online! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The site I got this information from made me believe it was written post acok. That's why I thought this was the right place to post my question. Sorry if I posted it wrong.

Silmarien Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I've just been introduced to the Character Gilly while reading ACOC. I searched the internet to find out more about her character and I came to the fact that Jon switched her baby. Why did he do that? ADWD spoilers so that Stannis and Melisandre wouldn't burn the infant for its "king's blood", Jon switched Mance's son and Gilly's and sent Gilly with Sam to Oldtown along with Mance's baby. Same reason he sent Maester Aemon Targaryen - to avoid him being burned alive for "king's blood." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
