TheKingIsHere: Lmao ![]() ![]() George actually said that Lady (Sansa's direwolf) dying earlier than her litter mates made Sansa a little lost and adrift hence why you might tag her "useless" ![]() |

Nihilist: So because beric doesn't know why the Lord of light choose him, that makes it that it wasn't based on merit? Even beric stated that he believes that he was chosen for a purpose. The Lord of light chooses he wants, even if it isn't based on merit but being chosen alone is an added advantage. .Fact |

GMan650: Your end paragraph is completely at odds with the rest of your post, which incidentally I agree with. Being ready to die does not make you a good king. Every damn soldier who goes to battle is ready to die. Heck, Beric has died like a billion times, he must be the kingliest ever candidate in that regard. You hit the nail on the head by implying that Jon is wear he is due to circumstances beyond his control. I accept that. What I will not accept is the implicit argument that Jon is where he is based on martial or strategic prowess, because my man is well and truly dumb. 'You know nothing Jon Snow' is not a coincidental catchphrase. His name and his luck have been mostly responsible for getting him this far. He's a muppet. 1 Like |

Coyotejack: I know. I was just pointing out that it's a foreign religion. It didn't originate from Westeros like The Old religion and the Seven. Hence why Jon doesn't really believe the Red Priestess. Nor vex. Lol ![]() |

TheKingIsHere: You can't be chosen on merit if you can't point to a single attribute that justifies your choosing. Beric doesn't know why he's been chosen cos logically hes not a solid pick. That much he knows. |

Nihilist:Do you know if beric was kept alive so that he can help the hound? Both men now have met and have a purpose and that's why I asked yesterday to know what and whose side they will fight for. As for Jon snow, I have already pointed out his attributes and qualities. |

Coyotejack: Lord of light is an unseen character with unrevealed motives. We don't know why he's picking Jon or Beric or everyone else who's been picked. It would appear that the LoL is not even completely sure of his pick sef, if red priestess reservations about whether Jon could be resurrected again are anything to go by. So I'm working with a process of elimination here. It's not martial prowess, I don't think anyone would say Jon is a top 5 fighter even by GOT standards. Even his wildling babe is arguably better than him. It's not strategic prowess either, as all the decisions he has ever made have been second guessed and challenged for tactical rather the personal reasons, and he has lost his life once and almost lost it again as a consequence. It's not money either. I don't want to speculate on what it is. I only know what it's not. Jon is a muppet |

BraniacX: I agree. She knows how to mask her feelings, she's starting to exert her position and power. The only way to beat Littlefinger is if you get him to think that he's winning. In the novels she has her internal dialogues to clarify her duplicitous behaviour, even though she's smiling outwardly. She's grown up, she isn't a fool anymore -but that's exactly what she's pretending to be, and book LF is buying it all up. Silly little Sansa that he can manipulate, meanwhile she's learning from his tricks and gathering dirt on as many people as possible. She's making useful allies, or at the very least friends who have inadvertently taught her much. You've read the Alayne chapter right ? It's not so obvious in the show, this is what people don't get. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

TheKingIsHere post=58579761[b: Yup that would be functional usage, not a meritorious pick. You use a spoon because it helps you load food into your mouth, not because it deserves to be used. Big difference. Jon is a muppet |
Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Yonce(f): 1:36pm On Jul 18, 2017 |
Coyotejack: Not really, the religion of the north (The Old Religion) is from the Children of the Forest, it originated beyond the wall. The newer Faith of the Seven and God of Light is from Essos. I think |

Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Gbola5(m): 1:56pm On Jul 18, 2017 |
Coyotejack: The Mad King's son; Dany's brother - Rhaegar. What is known as Robert's Rebellion was started by Jon Arryn, and only became Robert's when a succession crisis arose. Their jus ad bellum was self defense from Aerys's aggressions, Lyanna's kidnad and rape only served to fuel that. |

Yonce: Let's stop pretending we know why he was brought back or how. Planetosi religion is fashioned like our world's own religions; where you cannot prove or disprove miracles or a god exists, where we cannot explain them. He was brought back and that is that. We may never know why. |

Nihilist: His martial prowess is actually amongst the best in the series and pls note that Jon Snow's tactics and growing popularity in the series is what might make him king. And hw does Jon Snow being king affects you. If he's truly a 'muppet', why does it bothers u so much? 2 Likes 1 Share |

TheKingIsHere: She loses Lady, but not her ability. Only Bran is aware of the ability, the rest just think it's dreams. There's a scene in the novels with Sansa and an old blind dog though. |
