spoiler alert

i read on wiki that they have aegon alive! will he and dany cross paths i wonder? oooh its all too much!

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 17:15

but i do have a leetle teeny tiny conspiracy theory of my own.

Arya.

She is in the house of the faceless men. well as a junior apprentice surely that would make her a "little brother"
She has plenty of reason to hate cersei, she is on her prayer list after all.

and i can't imagine why she would be left to just join the order of the faceless man and be forgotten about. She is the daughter of Ned Stark. she can't just becomea member of a religious order.

So i think that the Kind old man is training her for a specific mission....of which i think it is to kill cersei.

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 17:14

well jaime has betrayed her now hasn't he? he didn't come when she asked for help, going by the end of the last book cersei is in trouble.

i think the beautiful queen is daenerys also.

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 17:12

loving that name valar!

not confused as such but never knew there were two, so if i'm on a thread i may forget about the other one and just group them together as lissie/lizzy lou

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 17:11

Well im not convinced that the "younger more beautiful queen" is Maraery Tyrell.
Cersei seems convinced because she is unaware of Daednerys' existence. but Maegaery is only every really described as pretty, whereas Cersei is always Beautiful.

Daenerys is forever having her beauty described in great detail.

plus cersei thinks that Valonqar is Tyrion, since it means little brother in HV, But Im plumping with the majority and going for Jaime.

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:48

Grin totally agree. what do you make of Maggy's prophesy?

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 16:46

indeed. The Dothraki is a very animalistic and tribal tongue. Great in a Khal but not really what you want for a dinner table.

The High Valyrian is just so much more musical and classy

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:45

Grin there is a forum somewhere that is dedicated to the dothraki language. I prefer high valeryian.

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 16:42

that they do. But i was a lady once, the idea of servitude appals me

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:34

Grin Valar Dohaeris

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 16:32

It is vague enough that only real fans will get it.

cut the wheat from the chaff and all that.

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:27

its ace!

ValarMorghulis · 09/01/2012 16:26

RIGHT!!

Finally settled on this one. I love it.

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:21

Grin LizzyLou was here before me! we dont seem to be on the same thread that often but always confer on seasonal namechanges.

OnlyANinja · 09/01/2012 16:19

I don't find lissielou and LizzyLou to be confusing. Don't know why.

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 16:17

did you know there's a lizzylou too? i wonder how many times i've confused the two...

i know what you mean about losing the lissie, it feels really weird seeing my new name by posts

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:13

Dany, Ive just been lissielou for so long, that a new lissie-less name looks wrong iykwim.

reek, I dont think its that much of a spoiler. after all, it doesnt actually name him.

found this sample from the next book!!!

OnlyANinja · 09/01/2012 16:10

You've got to know your name.

ReekrhymeswithWeak · 09/01/2012 16:10

yup, was WhingingNinja.

ugly connotations aside, as tbh i probably look a lot more llike maggy with the brain power of Hodor. so it doesn't really matter.

just a bit worried Reek is a bit of a spoiler.

I don't want something really obvious. Its gotta be good to replace WN.

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 16:10

don't change unless you love the name you're changing to.

one will come to you

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 16:09

oh i'm going to! Grin
things can only get better i say (except my spelling and grammar, thats got worse) Wink

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:09

argh, not sure I like my name. I keep expecting to see lissielou and confusing myself....

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:06

oh, but MaggytheFrog is good too....

MotherofDragons · 09/01/2012 16:05

oh no Sad sounds like a tough few months! I'd hold him to that!

either LadyofTarth or ReekrhymeswithWeak

DaenerysTargaryen · 09/01/2012 16:04

i like lady of Tarth, weren't you the one yesterday who wanted to be brienne but didnt like the ugly connotations?
