The Dragon has three heads Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 There's proof iirc that one of Torrehn Starks men was makIng 3 weirdwood arrows, and talk of going to a parley and killing them before the battle. Or something.But he knelt instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red Hand Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Still, how does that suggest that Theon will think the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dragon has three heads Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Oh that's complete conjecture, but it's about all he's good for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkie Baelish Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Judging by the "Black dude dies first" rule, I'm betting that Drogon bites the dust. I'm putting my money on Euron to kill one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assjfjgjsgjljljglgjfjsduar Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Could be the Citadel, could be the Faceless Men. Could be the Others. Could be winter itself. Could be a hotshot archer with a weirwood arrow. Lots of plausible possibilities. ;)And yes I think a weirwood arrow would kill them. Wherever Brandon Snow got the idea (and that is the $64,000 question), it was legit. And we know that weirwoods can withstand fire and heat, like the tree where the wildlings burn their dead or Winterfell's godswood. Something like, "There's life in the wood that's as strong as any fire." I think that's why it has to be weirwood; an ordinary arrow would burn too quickly.

Dr. Pepper Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 With the whole 2nd dance supposedly coming up, one of the dragons could end up being slain by another dragon. That is the one sure way we know a dragon gets dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEvilKing Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I don't think any of them will survive.As for the killers I'd say, in order of likeliness:Another dragonSome kind of Others creature/"Great Other" if it existsThe CitadelJon SnowDanyBran (via some kind of warging mindkill)Someone known for their archery ie.

Dany can't allow or deny anyone to do anything with her dragons considering that two of them are no longer in her immediate possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's not just Aegon that could potentially gain control of a dragon. In fact, I think it highly unlikely that he ever does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Tyrion VIII Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 It hasn't come out yet. But I believe that it's coming out this year. Around the end of August, GRRM read an excerpt of the WOIAF about the Targaryen conquest of Westeros. I'll give you the link.Anyways, Torrhen Stark's brother, Brandon Stark offered to shoot the Targaryen dragons with weirwood bows but Torrhen bent the knee to Aegon.ETA: This one is betterhttp://thewertzone.b...onquest-in.htmlThe Winds of Winter comes out in 7 months?

rivergirl Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I like the Theon theory a lot. I can also see it being Aegon, killing one of them to prove his loyalty to Dorne and getting them some vengeance for Quentyn. It would also probably quash any fears of him being another dragon-mad Targaryen... and suggest that he's a Blackfyre.Wait... where are Rhaegal and Viserion? Silly Dany, you really shouldn't have made it so obvious that Drogon was your favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assjfjgjsgjljljglgjfjsduar Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Wait... where are Rhaegal and Viserion? Silly Dany, you really shouldn't have made it so obvious that Drogon was your favourite.This reminds me of a post Tze had once about how Dany's dragons might mirror Cersei's children in some way, given that Dany and Cersei are intentionally written as foils of sorts, and each has three "children." The theory was that Drogon, like Joffrey, is the favorite but would die first, forcing Dany to fall back to Viserion (Tommen), the least confrontational and war-like of the three, who gets the job done but is ultimately a disappointment to mummy after Drogon/Joffrey. And like factions have been trying to pit Myrcella against Tommen, factions might try to pit Rhaegal (as a symbol for, say, Aegon or another entity) against Viserion.

Faint Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I think the most likely possibility is the Others and they might take down more than one dragon, perhaps even including Jon and Daenerys (who are dragons themselves, in a manner of speaking).

Tagganaro Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I would think all 3 of them will be dead by the end of the series honestly. Dragons plant no trees- Once the battle for the Dawn and the War of Kings is over, and the Others/Iron Throne situation is presumably settled, I doubt there will be any Dragons left.I think it's striking how little characterization/"humanization" has occurred with them, at least compared to the dire wolves. Leads me to believe, even outside of the gruesome violence they inflict, that GRRM does not intend for us to fully root for the Dragons to survive.
