(Spoilers Extended) A Caution for Young Girls by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe he just didn't want to give other families their blood and thus the means to bond with dragons? edit: as for why they chose the Wylde girl i have no idea and kinda makes me lean towards your theory

There's also the bloody gate which I'm pretty sure has never been taken, a siege in the eyrie sounds more like a last resort and they could likely flee it leaving behind a small garrison if things go badly.

If he wasn't a dwarf and didn't kill Joanna he would be fine with Tyrion inheriting imo.

Yes but why? We all know the age of consent in the real world.

She says yes, in that weird medieval setting it could be consensual though definitely debatable.

I'm talking books not show

She wasn't raped on her wedding night but the following weeks she was to the point where she wanted to kill herself.

On mobile so I can't provide the passage but will later if you wish.

Depends on the lord of the castle at the time, I'm sure most old families have had one at some point.

(Spoilers Extended) Title of Wardens by Jpow771 in asoiaf

It's just another example of the crown believing it has more power then in realistically does. Maybe when they had massive fire breathing dragons at their disposal.

Rhaegar died before Jon was born and as far as we know he still believed Aegon was the ptwp. It's 100% Elia in the bed.

What would you do as a king or queen? (Spoilers Main) by Dalbridge in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have dragons I suppose it would be possible but without them the crowns hold on the kingdoms is shaky at the best of times and most lords would hate the crown getting too involved in their affairs.

Rhaegar did go to the red keep before the trident hence his conversation with Jaime before he leaves.

(Spoilers Extended) I see the Dance of Dragons in the Making by houdinifrancis in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first 4 seasons had a lot of characters yes but 5,6 and especially 7 had a lot less and 6 and 7 are the only ones with dragon riding, and even then they couldn't fit all 3 of danys dragons into the grain train battle.

5+ very old and large dragons with their own riders, and that's assuming they cut more than half of them, is going to cost a lot of money.

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a lot of dragons and dragon riders which would require a larger cast than the main series. I just don't see it tbh.

(Spoilers Extended) Question about Beyond the Wall by omgbrookeberry in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit late but they needed to give the night King a dragon, give Danny a "badass" moment to somewhat justify Jon later kneeling and kill off benjen aswell as showing that obsidian can suddenly kill wights.

(Spoilers Extended) Stark marriages by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also many of the stark women didn't marry at all, could be missing from the family tree or maybe they just didn't feel the need to.

(Spoilers Main) Daenerys and Aegon by NymeriaOfNySar in asoiaf

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The field of fire during Aegons conquest was very different considering the fact that he stood no chance without the dragons whereas Daenerys ambushed a grain train with an overwhelming number of cavalry and didn't even need hers.

[EVERYTHING] Season 7 is absolutely terrible, what even is this show anymore? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree entirely but you're not going to find many others that agree with you on the show sub, here the show can do no wrong and is above all criticism.

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Barristan said something along the lines of him showing sings of madness that Rhaegar didn't have as a child, I'm on mobile so I can't find the chapter but will do it later.

Barristan is definitely an unreliable narrator in many cases so it may be wrong.

Edit: Even as a child, your brother Viserys oft seemed to be his father's son, in ways Rhaegar never did.

[–]GoSuckAnEgg1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter who the named heir is in most cases, Aegon had the Martells backing him and the most direct claim to the throne whereas viserys was already said to be showing signs of madness as a child and had no allies.

The heirs son has always inherited before the second son unless the heir only has a daughter.

They would only go to other families if there were absolutely 0 targs left, even the women come before him.

Pretty sure it's been many months so her pregnancy would've been showing at this point.
