if AA once stood up to the Others, then its likely that AA was one of the First Men since the First Men and the CotF fought the Others together
If AA was one of the first men, its possible that a Stark was AA, but was only called AA by the followers of R'hllor
but i dont think Valryian steel was in Westeros at the time of that war, so its probably not ICe
but i still think AA was one of the old Starks
If AA the same as the Last Hero (and I think he is), then that provides more support for your theory. Plus Samwell finds an old account of the Last Hero slaying others with "Dragonsteel," which may be the same as Valyrian.
I don't know why the Last Hero seems to be discussed less than other stories and prophesies, but I just finished a re-read of all of the books and think it could be pretty important. Especially since Martin left the story unfinished, and all we know about the ending (from Bran later on when finding out that Benjen was missing) is:
quote:
All Bran could think of was Old Nan's story of the Others and the last hero, hounded through the white woods by dead men and spiders big as hounds. He was afraid for a moment, until he remembered how that story ended. "The children will help him," he blurted, "the children of the forest!"

Awesome.
From your link:

...and fed their dead servants on the flesh of human children
Guess that answers the Craster question.

One thing I've wondered is if Dragonsteel is really the same thing as Valyrian steel? The Long Night should have predated Valyria by a few thousand years, and Westeros didn't even have regular steel until the Andals came. I suppose they could have made it independently, or they just mistranslated it.
