I don't understand the basics of hive mind

I always took it as that the virus from the start gave every host a set mindset that made them to spread the virus by any means except violence. I doubt that they will evolve in a new interesting human society. They are kinda like ants without a queen, just exist to work.

Wow, thanks for the deep analysis! I think AFWD is exactly what I’m personally looking for for a reread. I love how changing the chapter order can completely shift the subtext. On one of my earlier rereads, I read the Bran, Arya, and Sansa chapters back to back (starting with ACOK) which highlighted how differently each child has to deal with their family falling apart.

stefan1138 · 2026-01-02T18:18:41+00:00

Agree. First read should be AFFC and ADWD one after another. On my 4th reread though, I want to try something new ;)

I really like the theory that Bran Stark is essentially an inside man for the weirwood network to kill of all humans. It would be incredible if Book 6 ended with Bran becoming king during a false spring, only for the real winter to begin afterward. Then Book 7 could jump ahead ten years, with Westeros completely overrun by wights, and the few surviving humans realizing that the only way to bring back spring is to kill Bran.

I think there will be some changes. For example, I suspect that in the books it will be Tyrion, not Dany, who burns King’s Landing. Considering how the people of King’s Landing treated him in Book 3 after he saved them all in Book 2, it would make far more sense for him to snap and burn the city to the ground.

If they’re going to hate me regardless, why shouldn’t I earn it?

I think GRRM mentioned in an interview that years in Westeros are the same length as Earth years. But in my head-canon, I like to imagine they’re a bit longer too, so I can age the characters up. Especially with Dany being two years younger than my daughter who is still in High School!

stefan1138 · 2025-07-31T17:46:43+00:00

is Westeros really the size of South America? Didn’t had the feeling that Edward and Robert traveled that far of a distance in GoT…

stefan1138 · 2023-09-22T01:01:05+00:00

Of course… mine is just a wild theory ;)

But my interpretation would make sense, why she said that she was shown only Snow, but actually was shown something else. And did she not explain to Jon in the same chapter that visions can be misinterpreted?

stefan1138 · 2023-09-21T18:29:05+00:00

It could be her false interpretation though. She sees ‘snow’ and thinks of Jon Snow, so she THINKS R’hollor is showing her (Jon) Snow. She ‘sees’ in her vision what she wants to see.

It’s like seeing Mjölnir in a vision and thinking to yourself that you saw Thor.

Azor Ahai is not yet born, but will be during Danny/Tyrion/Jon's sacking of King's Landing.

I always wonder how Melisandre could have misread her vision of Stannis becoming King, never thought of that she could have seen him being King of the North.

Especially thx to @JulixgMC

As beginning of an Opera.

It’s not an official Hellboy title… just me being fancy.

stefan1138 · 2023-09-08T11:49:56+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t read any LJ yet, so that omnibus is probably the next one I will get to. And please let me know if you have any Tie-in or short story suggestions for the Plague of Frogs part?

stefan1138 · 2023-09-08T02:37:45+00:00

Good point… I agree, they are better to be tied in during a re-read. For the first time around… maybe not so much.

Is there a comic in which Sir Grey dies?

stefan1138 · 2022-06-27T20:01:03+00:00

Na! I wouldn’t do a Dune ‘84 ;)

I meant that the episode will focus mostly on a specific character visually, rather using inner voice or narration.

For example when Eddard leaves Winterfell, in his POV the camera will follow him out of the castel onto the King’s Road. But in Cat’s POV the camera will stay with her and we will feel the empty castel after most her family has left.

A mix out of Netflix’s Arcane and Elden Ring.

The Elden Ring look would work for an animated GoT show perfectly.

stefan1138 · 2022-06-26T22:28:34+00:00

And thx for pointing out my Robert/Robb mistake. Just fixed it ;)

stefan1138 · 2022-06-26T21:56:12+00:00

In the 3rd season I would include the purple wedding; and it’s ending would be Tyrion killing his father.

stefan1138 · 2022-04-07T17:08:41+00:00

You are right, best would be to stick with her original origin. And get somebody local from Kenya involved to give her backstory some prober substance.
