zmflavius Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 How did Patrek Mallister survive the Red Wedding when he was meant to be protecting Robb? I believe that it being a wedding, Robb's guards were not seated in positions optimal to fighting, but rather feasting. Ser Patrek likely was wounded and taken out of action by a crossbow bolt early on, or subdued before realizing what had happened or perhaps was captured while trying to fight his way to Robb.

Ser Tom Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 How does Varys pee? This is a very important question. In a very lady like fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Boleyn Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 One more question, in AFFC, Cersei remembers that once Robert wanted to bring his teenage bastard girl in King's Landing, and he didn't because she threatened to kill the girl; could this girl have been Mya Stone (since she was his first baby and he cared for her, and since Jon Arryn maybe told him that she loved a lord and he wanted to acknowledge her to help her marrying her lover?

Bad Dog Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Probably. Especially since he really spent time with her when she was small, so he must have felt something for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Boleyn Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 That's sad he didn't, if it was her... being acknowledged as the king's bastard would maybe have made the wedding with her knight boyfriend possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamsplat Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Could bran (before crippling) climb out of one of the sky cells in the eyrie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexy Boleyn Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Depends of how the walls are made, I guess... If they are smooth, it's impossible even for him. If there are asperities so he has places to put his hands and feet ( and there are, surely, since no one expected a climber to climb out the cells)he could. But the major problem would be that it's a long way, and he may suffer from hunger or tiredness, have a dramp, be bothered by rapaces... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandrock Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I keep reading things about stories of Dunk/Egg? Are these published books? How do they tie-in to the books? Can I buy these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfish Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I keep reading things about stories of Dunk/Egg? Are these published books? How do they tie-in to the books? Can I buy these? They are prequel novellas, set about eighty or ninety years before the beginning of AGoT. Right now you can only find them in anthologies. There's a pinned thread on this forum called "ASOIAF Bibliography: Where You Can Find All of Those Dunk & Egg Stories" that'll help you find them (obviously).

Sandrock Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hah can't believe I didn't see that. Thanks, guess I will wait for a collection of the stories then. Seems kind of a waste to buy a bunch of bundles just for that story :/ Do you know if there is some really crucial information shared in there relevant to the current books?

It depends on how you define "crucial." There is one character in the books whose backstory and history is shown in the prequel novellas (I could tell you who, if you don't mind what could be considered a minor spoiler). The novellas also explain the history of the Blackfyre Rebellion much more so than the main books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Dog Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 And you recognise which shield Brienne found in her ancestral armoury. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wightman Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 And you find out why The Fossoways are split into Green and Red apples. :) Not really "crucial" but enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areacode201 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Do we know for a fact, or at least have strong evidence towards, who sent to assassin to kill Bran? It's been a while since I read the books and I've forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a while since I read the books and I've forgotten. Tyrion and Jaime independently come to the conclusion that Joffrey was the one who sent the assassin. George basically confirmed this when he said that the dagger question would be resolved in ASoS. The moral of the story: it was Joffrey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rarm Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I'm not sure whether this is in another thread or not but I'm curious so here goes. I'm rereading ASOIAF and I'm trying to get an estimate of character ages. In Clash Dany says in one of her chapters she is 15. Sansa is confirmed to be 12, Arya 10. In SoS Sansa is 13.So basically I can assume Dany and Arya are 16 and 11 respectively? A year seems to go by during each novel, or am I wrong ? o.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarm Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Yeah I've always been a little confused about the ages because of all the interwoven timelines, glad I'm on the right track :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
