I'll throw another log on the Stoneheart fire. Although i'm in the Sansa as Stoneheart avenger corner.

i love this and hadn't seen it before. as much as i really really want LSH in the show, im with you guys on them giving the role to Sansa. i mean what else is there for her to do? however, another interesting tidbit is this; the last time we see jaime and brienne in the books, she is telling him the bs about the hound and sansa, and we are led to believe shes bringing him back to LSH's camp. in the trailers we can clearly see scenes where brienne is at riverrun, and jaime is riding through a lannister war camp. yes this camp could be outside the twins, but i think it more likely that it's the siege at riverrun, and jaime is there to end it. Brienne doesn't know LSH in the show, but maybe Sansa will ask Brienne to bring her Jaime as a sign to prove her loyalty to Sansa and the Stark cause.

That the Faceless Men know about the White Walkers lends itself to Preston's theory that Jaquen was hired to kill Bloodraven.

There's speculation that the Davos trailer scene with Mormont banner showing and one of Sansa's scenes are same place. As in, there in same place & time. So, she could be Stoneheart avenger + rallying the North. Big-time character development. And, from show perspective, in much better position to "use" Littlefinger, rather than kill him.

It appears so, but I don't see the bread crumbs or hints for this. I mean, who on the planet knows about Bloodraven? And, would they know about Bran? This would be an interesting assignment for Arya.

I think you're right Sirken: the show won't spoil the books anymore. So on the show, I could see them giving Sansa the revenge arc, since they have to move quickly. But a few questions I have about the books:

Just re-read A Feast for Crows. Baelish is even more pro than I remember. I know Sansa will be his downfall, but do y'all think that means she rises to the top, or near it? I really think if she becomes the power in the Vale (through Harry) and potentially a claimant to Riverrun and Winterfell, she could become VERY powerful. I don't see Dany surviving the story, so could Sansa eventually become queen?

My second question is about Aegon. Since the show wrote him off and GRRM waited til book 5 to introduce him, I feel that fAegon is probably a Blackfyre and more or less just shows Varys' and Illyrio's motivation behind the events. That said, given the turmoil in westeros, why couldn't he make trouble?

God damnit I want the winds of winter. Dorne is still uncommitted, the ironborn and fAegon have landed....
So much shit could happen

Oh and I can't wait to see that scene this season with Davos and "Ghost" (Jon's Warg soul inside him) defending Jon's body. The trailers have been legit so far

the faceless men dont actually need to be aware of the whitewalkers. they just need to be hired by someone who is aware of the whitewalkers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Honestly, i see Harry being a complete dick to Sansa. maybe because she'll be Baelish's bastard, maybe because Harry is just a dick. but part of the reason i think the show did Sansa the way they did with Ramsay last season is because Harry will do those same things to her anyway (and the show isnt including Harry). i think ultimately Sansa will rule in the Vale, or hell, maybe she'll end up with Tyrion. who knows. But Sansa has no claim to the iron throne. while i can also see Dany dying, i can't see Jon dying, and he has a better claim than Sansa. hell, Rickon has a better claim than Sansa. i think it more likely that Westeros be ruled by Jon Snow, or will break apart in seven different kingdoms again.

i agree with you about Aegon. but i also like the theory that hes Illyrio's son by his wife whom was a female descendant of the Blackfyre line. and thats just the thing, he CAN make trouble. hell, by the end of book 5, hes already making trouble having secured Griffin's Roost and some surrounding areas for his base of operations. however if he was smart, he would have tried to take Dragonstone first and make that his base of operations. you know, for the nostalgic Aegon the Conqueror feels.

and Dorne. only The Seven know what games Doran Martell is playing.. well them and maybe Preston Jacobs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah this will be fascinating to find out how the faceless men, and for that matter whoever hired them, came to know so much.
