Mance wrote the Ramsay letter, because he wants to reveal the truth to his son in the Stark crypts and perhaps give him a certain sword which has been rumored to be in Lyanna's tomb.


Boom. The letter is solved.

Dawn is in Starfall.

I can't, even though I want to, get behind Arthur Dayne being Mance. There are many good theories to prove he is, but it's just not enough. In the fight at ToJ many die including Hightower, Whent, Glover, Dustin, and Cassell. I don't think after they all died Ned, Howland, and Arthur would be like ok ok timeout. This is what we are going to do.

Also, Rhaegar was too interested in the Dragon has three heads prophesy. He knew he had to have another child. I can't not believe Jon isn't that child.

From the same site that Carson got that stuff:

quote:

Mance wasn't sent to the Wall, at least not in the way that most people are. Mance was born beyond-the-Wall, and as a small child he was the lone survivor of a ranger-wildling clash. The rangers took him back to the Shadow Tower, where he grew up until he said his vows. Also, there are two big knots in this theory. The first is Mance's going to Winterfell when King Robert was there. If Mance really were Arthur Dayne, there are a number of people who could have recognized him: Ned Stark; Robert Baratheon; Jaime Lannister; Cersei Lannister; possibly Benjen Stark (he would have seen Dayne at the Tournament of Harrenhal); maybe even Catelyn Stark. The second knot is Ned's own recollection of the events at the Tower of Joy. Why would Ned lie in his own thoughts about him and Howland Reed being the only survivors, or his having built eight cairns to bury the dead? Remember, we're not talking about something Ned told someone, but his inner monologue. I don't see Ned as the kind of person who would internally lie to himself.
