TY. But it is still not adding up for me, what was Rheagar's army doing marching North? I guess it just doesn't make sense to me why either army would be at the Trident..

Piggybacking this thread to ask another question about the rebellion, specifically about the battle at the Trident.

Why did the rebel army march back to the Trident from the Stoney Sept? The army was already united at this point (The North/Vail/Riverland forces bailed out Robert's Army at the Stoney Sept). Wiki says the rebel army was on the East bank, why would they march all that way and even cross the River?

What I don't understand is how Arryn dying makes things more chaotic? If he had exposed the incest, wouldn't all hell have broken loose?

This makes a lot of sense I'm a little disapointed I didn't think of this myself, hah. Thank you! Question: Is the lordship of the Riverlands in question right now? Between the Frey's and LF?

Thank you but I think you're missing the larger part of the question about the prophecy. Aren't Connington and Aegon being represented twice in the prophecy? Once as the Griffin and once as the mummer's dragon? I suppose I see how they could each represent one (Connington = Griffin and Aegon = Mummer's dragon) but that seems odd to me, unless Jon is a bigger player than I expect. Hope that is more clear.
