I am hoping Gregor doesn't reappear as a FrankenKnight. I want him to come back so that the Hound can have a reason to live again but I am tired of zombies in these books. I am leaning towards Gregor being kept alive by Qyburn rather than brought back to life. Its seems kind of pointless to make...

I don'T think Brienne is dead either. Its just a goofy way to kill a character. Why have her say anything at all? If she is going to be dead why not go ahead and kill her beyond a shadow of a doubt? There is already a cliffhanger with Ayra's blindness. He didn't need another one. He could have...

Well I have not read the preview chapters, which is a fact I lament. Do you know where I can get them? You have made many good points and I can see the logic of your viewpoint but I reserve judgement until I get more information. Since you mentioned Ned's death I have another question...

Personally I think it is bad writing to make a character who knows everything and never makes a mistake. How could giving Tyrion knowledge of the tunnels underneathe the tower of the hand be good for Varys? I was not misrepresenting you or trying to win anything. I was making a joke ( A bad...

Well I doubt she could look at it and tell since it adds that new fire engine red tinge to the old Valyrian Steel. But I guess her zombie powers could help her.

You are taking things out of context. AU had commented that many people would have known about the secret marriage. In answer to her I was saying it is not the important secret. That being that she wasn't a whore. Why would the people around CR not think she had become a whore after...

Its not like he couldn't claim to have had a hand in their deaths while not being linked to them publicly throughout the world. But I guess my opinion on this subject is far from the norm and nobody invovled seems likely to change their opinion so there is not really anymore reason to discuss...

The marriage was not the secret. Every person in his household thought Tyrion married a whore but who knew she was just a cobbler's daughter. Tyrion did not know the details. He was misinformed so Bronn could have told Varys the story but not the truth. Jaime was obviously holding the truth...

Why would Varys make inqueries about Tysha? The signifigance of the event is pretty much only in Tyrion's head. Does Varys know he hears echoes of a song Tysha sang him years ago? And what contacts? In the story only Tywin, Jaime, and Tysha know the truth. So do you mean contacts in Casterly...

well, first of all, I did not mean that Varys could not have known about the Tysha and the guards. I meant he doesn't know that she wasn't actually a whore. See thats the important part of the Lannister history that leads Tyrion to kill his dad and I doubt those guards knew. Just Jaime and Tywin...

But when Uncat says "NO" to Oathkeeper, I think it is just so she can be mocking by calling it Oathbreaker not because UnCat knows it is Ice.

People keep saying Ned was self-righteous but I can only remember the time Jaime describes how Ned judged him for killing the king without knowing about the whole burning King's Landing thing. But, come on, after seeing the result of the Lannister sack of King's Landing and then finding Jame...

The dragon must have three heads doesn't have to mean they are Targaryens. Aegon had sister/wives helping him and we all focus on the sister part but why can't Dany just have husbands. Two prospective husbands are on the way right now. One would give her Dorne and one the Ironmen. Its unlikely...

Varys could not have known that Tyrion would kill Tywin since he does not know about the wife. Jaime reveals the truth to Tyrion and this causes him to kill his father. I don't think Varys had a little bird listening in on that conservation and even if he did the timing is too fast. It would...

I think that a repeat of Aegon's conquest by Dany in order to bring peace seems alittle bit too simple and obvious for GRRM. It would be disapointing. I agree that the current instability is a great oppurtunity for someone to step in and rule but I don't see Dany being the number one contender...

Its not like eveything was happy under the Targaryens all the time. I don't think it is portrayed as a golden age. The peasants supported the Kingswood brotherhood outlaws(?) agaisnt the king's knights until Arthur Dayne won them over, obviously they were unhappy about something. Stannis is not...

I don't think Arya will ever be an emotionless faceless man. At least not with the current evidence. She couldn't throw away Needle and as long as it is under that stone she will always be Ayra Stark of Winterfell. And about killing Dareon, she sees it as her duty to kill a him since her family...

Really only two people I want dead 1. Walder Frey- traitor and dirty old man 2. Dany- Boring and dirty dragonspawn

Kelpie, I really am sorry if you are removing yourself from this debate becasue I have enjoyed your posts and find them thought provoking. I agree that the idea that the rape by the Mountain only serves to further Ayra's development can be seen as trivializing rape, but I think the tavern girl...

I don't really get that impression that rape is trivialized. I get the impression from most people that that scene freaked them out and mabye some of them only react enough to think that the Mountain is not a very nice guy, but I am sure plenty of people took some time to think about it. Its not...
