Who would take (the trappings of) power in King's Landing now that Kevan is dead? My best guess for Regent would have to be Mace Tyrell. Do you see any other option? There are simply no able or experienced relatives of Tommen's on hand to be Regent. Cersei might be exonerated in a trial by combat, some Lannister (Genna?) might travel to King's Landing to serve, or someone as left-field as Lancel might be pushed forward by the faith, but until then, who's ruling?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-6220110094256276372013-11-19T17:31:25.568+01:002013-11-19T17:31:25.568+01:00Scheduled for March 6th.Scheduled for March 6th.Stefan Sassehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03504751435668017553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-89776021748958600122013-11-19T08:48:26.666+01:002013-11-19T08:48:26.666+01:00It would seem that one has to be on a first name b...It would seem that one has to be on a first name basis with the person for the edict to apply. She would have been able to target Balon Greyjoy, for instance. But, Dany will be (maybe) moving closer to Arya, so it may be that they cross. I think the important part is that Arya must come to face a family member to resolve the tension that makes her character arc significant.Cant Stop Wont Stophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03317830532609170804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-87463841410791322582013-11-19T08:46:44.062+01:002013-11-19T08:46:44.062+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Cant Stop Wont Stophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03317830532609170804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-57667622164234010342013-11-19T00:11:59.364+01:002013-11-19T00:11:59.364+01:00While Ramsay's days are probably numbered, I&#...While Ramsay's days are probably numbered, I've heard some speculation that Roose Bolton may manage to survive (at least for the time being) whether by holding out at Winterfell or (more likely) by escaping before it falls.

As GRRM says he originally thought trilogy would at least leave open that the first book doesn't have room for red herrings and heightens the implications presented there in the text. Specifically, it's Ned that says that Arya reminds him of Lyanna, which Arya is taken aback by since she thinks of Lyanna as beautiful and herself as not. Where that is supposed to take us besides Arya will grow into herself I'm not certain. Of course Arya doesn't have a tragic love story yet, as she's not of the same age as Lyanna at the Tourney of Harrenhal. But if there's supposed to be meaning besides that Arya will grow up with her comparison with Lyanna, some other element of the story seems it will come around, or more that the definition of Arya's Arc is not quite done and it isn't just a linear path of where she is and the end game of the story. As always, we can all be wrong :) Mike Raznyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07726495485697431423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-59388790501496635482013-11-16T00:34:21.965+01:002013-11-16T00:34:21.965+01:00Jaime and Brienne near Raventree: Do they survive?...Jaime and Brienne near Raventree: Do they survive? Does one of them survive? How do they survive? To me, that's the single greatest hanging thread at the end of ADWD. I'm fairly certain that Stannis will survive the Siege of Winterfell, also somewhat sure that Jon Snow will return/is not dead in TWOW. And I'm nigh certain that Daenerys comes back to Meereen and the Yunkish slavers are defeated outside of Meereen. But I have no clue how Jaime and/or Brienne survive the encounter with the BWB and Lady Stoneheart. <br /><br />So, maybe the best way to ask the question in a judicial way would be: Will Jaime and/or Brienne die at the hands of Lady Stoneheart and the Brotherhood Without Banners?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1758815004886180861.post-58258542836960393182013-11-15T22:04:39.747+01:002013-11-15T22:04:39.747+01:00Is Penny Tyrion's daughter via Tysha ?Is Penny Tyrion's daughter via Tysha ?
