ASOIAF/Ragnarok
I don’t think that ASOIAF is just the Ragnarok or other Norse mythology retold, but it is interesting that, per this site:
“Fafnir is a dwarf whose father is the richest man in the world. In an act of treachery, Fafnir murders his father and steals his gold. He then flees with the treasure and transforms into a dragon in order to protect it. And, although Fafnir is not involved in the Ragnarök mythology, he is the central antagonist in the tales of the legendary hero Sigurd (and, I have yet to identify Sigurd). So, it's difficult to say what role he will play in future events, but Fafnir is clearly Tyrion Lannister. Like Fafnir, Tyrion is also a dwarf who slays his wealthy father and then flees across the Narrow Sea to the protection of a dragon (Danaerys Targaryen).”
So I think Sigurd could possibly be Jaime because (via Wiki:)
“Sigurd agrees to avenge Regin and Hreidmar and kill Fafnir, who has been turned into a dragon by a curse sourced in Andvari's ring and gold which he's protecting. Sigurd has Regin make him a sword, which he tests by striking the anvil. The sword shatters, so he has Regin make another. This also shatters. Finally, Sigurd has Regin make a sword out of the fragments that had been left to him by Sigmund. The resulting sword, Gram, cuts through the anvil.”
If ASOIAF and this story are related, it could mean that the ASOIAF equivalent to Sigmund either kills a dragon (Dany? Aegon? one of the 3 actual dragons?) or the ASOIAF equivalent to Fafnir, which is very likely Tyrion.
The story includes a sword that takes 3 times to forge, which sounds a lot like the Azor Ahai story…and some here have thrown out the idea that Jaime may be somehow involved in the reforging of Ice/Lightbringer (possibly by Gendry's smithing abilities when Jaime is brought to the BWB/Stoneheart by Brienne?)
In addition to this Sigurd’s tale also includes Brynhildr who he falls in love with. I think Bryhildr = Brienne in the ASOIAF tale because:
1. Brynhildr is a shieldmaiden. A shieldmaiden was a woman who had chosen to fight as a warrior in Scandinavian folklore and mythology.
2. Also Brynhildr was ordered to decide a fight between two kings, Hjalmgunnar and Agnar, and knew that Odin preferred the older king, Hjalmgunnar, yet she decided the battle for Agnar. Well she (Brynhildr) chose the wrong king and later cursed by Odin.... In the case of ASOIAF she, Brienne, chose Renly who was the wrong king.
3. Lastly, when Sigurd's funeral pyre was aflame, she threw herself upon it...This may be foreshadowed by back in COK when Melisandre was burning the Seven, the “Maiden” appeared to be laying on top of and embracing the “Warrior”.
