Recommended Posts

Thanks for looking! I found it right away the other day so don't know what to think.....UNLESS....I've been on the Citadel a lot lately and maybe it was on there...hmmm...anyway, if I do ever find it, I'll let you know!

You're welcome. I'll keep an eye open when I'm reading the app.

This is my first post although I've been a lurker for about a year. I just wanted to say I enjoy reading everyone's posts. You guys are great. In the app it says Doran sent Oberyn to make a deal for Arianne and Viserys to marry. My question is why Doran didn't keep tabs on Viserys/Dany? I would think this contract would be important to him - and for Ser Derry (sp?) for that matter.

Well, do we know he didn't? Or maybe he did. Daenerys didn't end up in a lyseni pillow house. For what we saw of Essos, that's maybe telling.

Nice, I finally know who Ran is.

He's the Batman.

Any app users please, anything new about Grenn from the NW?

Heres the whole entry:

A young but tall and husky ranger of the Night's Watch, Grenn is a fellow recruit in the group that contains Jon Snow. He is dubbed Aurochs by Ser Alliser Thorne for his slowness and stupidity. His closest friend is Pypar, but he also befriends Jon Snow after Jon begins to help him through the training.

As a member of Lord Commander Mormont's final ranging beyond the Wall, Grenn fights and survives the Fist of the First Men. During the flight, he, Samwell Tarly, and Small Paul are attacked by one of the Others. Grenn attempts to burn the Other with a torch but to no avail. After the Other kills Small Paul, Samwell Tarly manages to kill the Other with his dragonglass dagger, and they succeeded in reaching Craster's Keep.

Grenn flees back to Castle Black following Lord Commander Mormont's death and is among no more than a dozen brothers of the Watch to successfully reach the castle. Later, Grenn defends the castle from the Magnar of Thenn and the wildlings. Eventually, however, Lord Commander Snow decides to send his friends away from Castle Black so as to make his transition into his role as the leader of the Night's Watch easier. Grenn and Pypar are both sent to Eastwatch-by-the-Sea.

Another error i thought i'd just point out on the iphone app: under aemon targaryen in the sibling section, the name is linked to an Aegon Targaryen but not Aegon V the Unlikely as it should be. If you follow the link, it takes you to the page for Young Griff who, unless GRRM has thrown us all for a crazy loop (omg the theories to figure out that one :lmao: ), is probably not right.

Off-topic, sorry, and if this has already been pointed out, sorry for the repeat.

It's about the app, so no, it's not off-topic. Thank you for your input, and welcome to the forums.

Anything about Bronn?

Bronn is a sellsword of lowly origins but nonetheless a skilled swordsman. By happenstance, he is at the inn at the crossroads when Lady Catelyn Stark and Ser Rodrick Cassell capture Tyrion Lannister. Seeing a financial opportunity, Bronn and his companion Chiggen follow her onto the high road, toward the Eyrie. On the way, Chiggen is mortally wounded by clansmen and Bronn cuts his throat to prevent his cries from bringing down more of the mountain bandits.

Bronn's skills help ensure that Lady Catelyn arrives safely at the Bloody Gate with her companions, but she is not to be the source of his financial good fortunes. When Tyrion Lannister is put on trial by Lysa Arryn, Tyrion demands trial by combat and Bronn—who has been listening closely to Tyrion's words about Lannister gold—agrees to be his champion. He easily defeats the Eyrie's captain of the guard, Ser Vardis Egen, in single combat, and Tyrion is freed.

Departing the Eyrie, Bronn and Tyrion are forced to take the high road—once more with minimal supplies and no escort—but Tyrion manages to convince the clansmen to fight for him in return for weapons and armor to use against the Vale lords. Bronn, sensing opportunity, quickly becomes Tyrion's right-hand man. When they reach Tywin Lannister's camp, Bronn personally selects and delivers the whore Shae to Tyrion.

After the battle at the Green Fork, Bronn follows Tyrion to King's Landing. There, he is given a commission in the City Watch and works to gather a force of sellswords to fight at Tyrion's command. He also gathers information from the Kettleblacks, who are busy selling much of what Cersei tells them to Tyrion. During the Battle of the Blackwater, Bronn commands one of the winch towers that raise the boom across the river. After the battle, he and many other sellswords are knighted, and he takes the name Ser Bronn of the Blackwater.

When Tyrion is placed on trial for Joffrey's murder, Ser Bronn chooses not to fight on his behalf in a trial by combat, since Queen Cersei has arranged for his betrothal to the pregnant Lollys Stokeworth and Tyrion could not offer him any greater prize. When Lollys gives birth to a bastard son—conceived during her gang rape at the great riot in King's Landing—Bronn names him Tyrion after his former patron.

Cersei, paranoid conspiracy in shadows, sees this as proof that Bronn remains Tyrion's man, and orders Lollys's sister, Falyse Stokeworth, and her husband, Ser Balman Byrch, to kill Bronn. Ser Balman instead challenges Bronn to single combat and is promptly slaughtered after Bronn wrings a confession out of him. Bronn then forces Falyse, the heir to Stokeworth, out of the castle and styles himself Lord Stokeworth.

The Stokeworth matriarch, Lady Tanda—Lollys and Falyse's mother—dies shortly afterward from a suspicious riding accident, and Bronn is left in possession of the Stokeworth lands and title.

I'm told an update's been submitted to Apple. Once they clear it, it should be available for download. It should correct a number of things noted here and elsewhere. Not sure when exactly it will drop -- that's in Apple's court.
