Lady Blackfyre Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Supposedly, Harrion Karstark is still a prisoner at Maidenpool, right? But who is currently in charge of Maidenpool? Has Lord Mooton been restored afterTarly left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvinus85 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Does anyone know the name of the clansman who tried to kill Asha in the battle near Deepwood Motte, and later apologized for calling her a "cunt"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Blackfyre Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Does anyone know the name of the clansman who tried to kill Asha in the battle near Deepwood Motte, and later apologized for calling her a "cunt"?Morgan Liddle, known as Middle Liddle.“Ned’s girl,” said Morgan Liddle. He was the second of three sons, so the other wolves called him Middle Liddle, though not often in his hearing. It was Morgan who had almost slain Asha in the fight by Deepwood Motte. He had come to her later, on the march, to beg her pardon … for calling her cunt in his battle lust, not for trying to split her head open with an axe.A Dance with Dragons - The King's Prize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she changes her mind after she saw no one helped Penny when the girl was begging for help, desperate and in tears.Only the landlord reacted, but he was only interested in getting paid for the damage.The widow looks at Mormont. He is a knight and should protect the weak, she says. But Mormont doesn't react.Then the widow orders that Penny gets cared for.She wants Penny - and possibly Tyrion - safe. Volantis is not the safest place for dwarfs, as she says.The widow is an ex-slave. Her slave tattoos are removed and she tells Tyrion that once she wore chains too.She wants Tyrion to deliver a message to Dany, that the slaves of Old Volantis are waiting and want her to come soon.It's a bit murky but this is what I could find regarding her decision to send them away from Volantis and on their way to Dany.

Yes, it is a bit murky and confused, I think. She was quite angry at Jorah for not helping (him being a knight) and she delibrately sends them to a ship she knows is going to sink so I thought she may be sending them to their death. However, at the same time she tells Tyrion to deliver a message to Dany - I suppose on the off-chance that they may get to Dany? Is it Tyrion that insists Penny comes with them on the ship so the widow was only making plans for Tyrion and Jorah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it Tyrion that insists Penny comes with them on the ship so the widow was only making plans for Tyrion and Jorah?I agree it is a bit murky and I can't say I understand her motivation. However, I don't get your point that she is angry at Jorah for not helping. Helping whom? Penny wanted help killing Tyrion. She was blaming an innocent man for the death of her brother and demanding that he should die because he was the target of her brother's killers. In fact, Jorah did help her by grabbing her and taking the dagger away. He kept her from being a murderer. Then the widow gave her the help she needed after the incident.The widow certainly didn't like Jorah and didn't wish to help him. Was she trying to help Tyrion reach Dany for reasons of her own? Or perhaps she decided that there were probably others who would kill him if he stayed in Volantis and she saw the possibility of him delivering her message. That is what it sounds like. But I admit that I am not clear on what she is thinking here. I wonder what else was seen by the priest in the flames that she decides not to reveal.

livewyre Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I was reading feast last night and in a Jaime chapter he finds that Gregor's men left behind at Harrenhall were feeding the captives human flesh. One of the captives was Manderly's son, so do you think that is where Manderly got the idea for frey pie from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more likely a macabre coincidence; Manderly could have had the idea simply as a way to punish the Freys (sweet vengeance...), but having no idea the same was done to his own son.

The overlapping times lines are tricky though. Could just be a weird coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Vader's Bastard Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Anyone? I think she can actually see that Tyrion is indeed a decent (and noble) person. Something nobody else in the book can seem to see, save Jon perhaps. The reader is really the only person who knows that Tryion is actually a god guy.

One of the captives was Manderly's son, so do you think that is where Manderly got the idea for frey pie from?That I think is a coincidence, just because I'm not sure Manderly had time to learn of it before the wedding feast. But I have two other possible motives:1. The Rat Cook parable. The Rat Cook violated guest right (same as the Freys) and was punished by having to eat his own children. Manderly punished Freys by feeding them their own kin.2. Ramsay Bolton left Donella Hornwood, Manderly's cousin, to starve. She resorted to eating her own fingers. Manderly pays the Boltons back by feeding them human flesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lykos Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 @livewyreI think you could be right, at the last meeting of Davos and Wyman, the Manderlys are celebrating the return of Wylis. But I´m confused about the timeline too. Also I agree with Apple Martini´s points.A lot of reasons for Frey pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I agree with Apple Martini´s points.A lot of reasons for Frey pie.They're celebrating his return, yeah, but that's after he's sent away the Freys, isn't it? He tells Davos they're gone.Also, it's possible that Wylis didn't know what he was eating. So if he didn't know, he can't tell Manderly and Manderly can't use that as a motive.

Lykos Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 @Apple MartiniWell, they were probably not made into pies yet. The plan definitely was to kill them and was already made by that time. And I hope that Wylis didn´t know, these parts of the story I really don´t enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
