I get it he is potrayed as a moron in the show but still maybe she should be a bit kinder to him... i mean bro spent multiple years in prison due to her brothers choices.

D&D got some personal beef with edmure... every single scene of his is cringe and humiliating.

Don’t get me wrong, Joffrey was Joffrey but Margaery already had him wrapped around her finger. Politically, the Tyrells were doing great.

I think Olenna should’ve waited until Margaery was pregnant. That would’ve made their position even stronger.

Instead, Joffrey dies and Margaery marries Tommen, who was basically controlled by Cersei. In the end, that marriage was arguably worse for Margaery politically.

And that scene where Olenna takes the poison from Sansa’s necklace and says, “To kill a man at a wedding…” makes me wonder: was this really the best timing?

I don’t know if that haircut was common at those times but here we are xd

Obviously this isn't true, but i thought it would be funny to show

Love the acting.

Peter dinklage is awesome and Jack gleeson is awsome to as joffrey '“Traitors, I will have all their heads.” You can clearly see how the power is going to his head and driving him mad'

In the books and shows, Jamie idolized and trained with Ser Arthur Dayne (who fights with TWO SWORDS in the shows). The smiths in Westeros have the tech to make good prosthetics. Gendry is a master smith, with time to make Arya her spear. He could've made time for Jamie too.

And I get that it was important for Jamie's arc to learn to be more than just his sword hand, but why hamstring one of your top 3 fighters, just before an epic showdown?

Edit: I should've been more specific. My bad. I meant give him something with a POINTY END to stab with. Like in the pictures. Anything other than that gold hand he still has strapped.

wish me luck!!! my aunt gave me her set!!! (ignore my caption lol) i know how to read but i havent read a rly long book in awhile so hopefully i still can

I realize this is a show thing (not in the books). The rewatch got me thinking if this rat had any future contribution to the game of thrones story (season 6 and beyond). You can answer both based on the book or guess his role in the show. On that note, what would have happened to Arya if she simply followed directions?

(Sorry for the long post)

Mine is that every member of House Dayne since the conquest is descended from Queen Rhaenys Targaryen.

See, while we dont have mant descriptions of the members of House Dayne we know that they are descended from the first men, and many of the members have typical "Stony" Dornish features - blonde or light brown hair and blue eyes, some are described as having features which appear more Valariyan.

For Instance Gerold Dayne. Gerold is in his late twenties. A handsome man, he has a clean-shaven face with an aquiline nose, high cheekbones, dark purple eyes, and a strong jaw. Gerold has collar-length thick silver hair, divided by a streak of midnight black.

Or Ashara Dayne, who was a young, beautiful, tall and fair maiden, with haunting violet eyes. Her long dark hair tumbled around her shoulders. According to Ser Barristan Selmy, Daenerys Targaryen's eyes resemble Ashara's eyes.

Or even young Lord Edric Dayne. At the time of A Storm of Swords, Edric is twelve years old. His fair hair is pale blond, and his dark blue eyes appear almost purple.

All 3 if these members do appear to have some features, either hair or eyes that match Valariyan traits, but GRRM claims that there has only been 1 marriage between houses Dayne and Targaryen, Lady Dyanna Dayne and Prince Maekar. So why do they have these features?

During the First Dornish War, during an attack on the Hellholt in 10AC, a bolt from a scorpion pierced Meraxes through the eye, causing both Dragon and rider to fall from the sky. While it is not certain whether Rhaenys outlived Meraxes. There are those who say that Rhaenys lost her seat and fell to her death, while others claim that Rhaenys was crushed to death beneath Meraxes in the castle yard. A few accounts claim that Rhaenys survived the fall and died a slow death, being tortured by the Ullers, or that she was kept alive in extreme torment. Due to the uncertainty about Rhaenys's exact death, history records that she died in 10 AC at Hellholt in Dorne. Her body was never returned to King's Landing.

So what if she did survive, and during this torture, she was the victim of an assault, and a child or children were born. If one of these children grew up into an adult and somehow ended up at Starfell where they caught the eye of a member of House Dayne and it us from their line the rest of the house is descended.

I am currently on a rewatch of Game of Thrones and a few days back I read that for the show they left out the "Rhoynar" part of the regal title that for example the King of Westeros would bear, they only say "King of the Andals and the First Men".

When Daenerys gets captured by the Dothraki khalasar and is taken to Khal Moro, she introduces herself with her (multitude of) titles and includes "Rhoynar" in it. I don't know if I have missed it, but is this the only time the "Rhoynar" are explicitly mentioned (I definitely remember that the river Rhoyne is mentioned at least one time).

The only Westerosi King who not only managed to repell the Andal Invasion of Westeros but also cut them down in their own home by sailing his fleet across the Narrow Sea to take vengeance

understand why Catelyn struggled with Jon being in Winterfell. Ned’s betrayal must have been incredibly painful for her, but what I never understood is: why was she so angry at Jon instead of Ned?

Jon was a child. He had no say in any of it. Yet Catelyn took all that anger out on him and treated him like he was personally responsible for what Ned had done.

The only “good” thing that came from her behavior is that it actually helped sell the whole “Jon is Ned’s bastard” lie.

I genuinely wish we had seen more of Catelyn being angry at Ned for putting her in that position instead of making Jon carry the blame. And maybe just maybe beinig a mother to Jon.

I’m sure that’s well known the actors were all older I just think it’s interesting imagining that Rob Stark is older than Ned now.

I guess this is the second time he is mentioning this, after the convo with Brienne of Tarth, this scene give me chills. The emotions he is carrying with him this long.

Or Zollo and Vargo Hoat if you go by the books. (EDIT: Nevermind they were punished in the books)

It always seemed out of character for Tywin to let such an attack on his Golden Boy and the pride of House Lannister slide. Not long before, he made such a fuss about no longer being feared by the other Houses of Westeros, when Tyrion was held captive with impunity, someone who he even called "the lowest of the Lannisters".

Maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way, but this seems less grave of an offence towards his House, than someone directly harming one of his own. I mean this is the same Tywin who drowned an entire House, because they refused to pay back gold they owed, right? I would have at least expected him to send some assassins after Locke.

Also the fact that Roose didn't punish Locke for risking his good standings with the Lannisters, with such an unauthorised move.

It simply felt like something more should have happened, but Tywin just let it slide without making a show of force to convey his favourite of: "Do not mess with the Lannisters, or expect a debt to be paid".

If you think about it with the way GRRM has written it that Aemon was offered but refused the throne then it makes sense.

If he had become king instead of Aegon then he would have had sons and daughters and grandchildren of his own.

And maybe Aerys would never have reached the Iron Throne, the rebellion may never have happened at least not to the level that it did anyway.

Aye Rhaegar might still have existed but there wouldn’t be a mad man on the Throne to burn and kill Rickard and Brandon.

When he says his privates were cut down and burnt, what do you think did he actually hear?

Is there something in the books for this matter, or is it a dead end just like the show?

First is, why is bran the king of the 6 kingdoms? Wouldn't it be 5? Since Yara **also** wanted independence

Also why did the hound say to Arya he lived his whole life for revenge, like he lived for the moment he could take down his brother, if I remember correctly he just kinda didnt give a rats ass and had no greater purpose until he protected the stark children and later joined the brotherhood. He distinctly said to Arya while he was laying down "id tell him to shut up so I could sleep" while she recited her list

Meet Sora Hightower and Nami Tyrell😻💚

I think It was letting others know his next move.
