Isn't Littlefinger's sigil a mockingbird? The Titan of Bravos was his father's. And aren't there other families with the Titan as their sigil?
And aren't there plenty of giant sigils and giants without sigils?


You post like everything you say is certain to happen when we all know that GRRM laughs at anyone who thinks they've got it all figured out.

That's still House Baelish's sigil. Plenty of people create their own sigils for themselves. Garlan and Loras' sigil is different from their own house's.

Littlefinger changing his sigil is all about being looked at as helpless. Little fingers are seen as the most helpless part of the body. He wants from the start no one to think of him as a threat, merely a friend to all.

Can't think of any. I think Umber may have a giant as a house sigil, but that's it.

This is the only theory I'm mostly behind that I feel confident in.

The eyes don't match up, I don't remember much about Ashara Dayne other than everyone talks about her eyes. 'Laughing purple eyes', one of the reason some people think she was the KotLT.

Martin could totally shock us all but with all the theories that have been discussed, chances are at least a few of them will happen.

Robin was playing with some kind of rag doll as though it was the giant stomping on the snow castle. When Sansa grabbed the doll, it ripped apart. Robin screamed, "you killed him!" I think that's the prophecy of her "killing" the giant in the castle made of snow.

Agree 100%. I think people are making it out to be more than it is. Obviously in the first part concerning Sansa her hair didn't really have purple serpents in her hair, its alluding to the jewels. Same thing with the "giant", its referring to the doll.

I re-watched the "Red Wedding" episode tonight. Nothing more important has happened than Bran being able to warg into Hodor. Even Jojen was shocked.

I started reading the Dunk and Egg novellas thanks to you good people.

The Hedge Knight was so good! But in typical GRRM fashion it's not the typical fairy tale story.

I found a link or two that allowed me to open them up straight into ibooks, which is really nice. I googled - dunk and egg ebooks. The Hedge Knight was PDF though.

PDF wasn't bad, though. I just opened it on my tablet...just like reading an ibook.

I read all three in three nights. Good stories that change your perspective on some things when you reread ASOIAF.

i didn't think i wanted to bother with the dunk and egg series but i loved it too. it was so laid back and easy to read compared to the ASOIAF series.

"Dunk the lunk, thick as a castle wall"

and "clout in the ear" made me

The Mystery Knight is awesome. You get your first real look at Bloodraven in person (before he became a tree more or less).

I'm really hoping to meet Shierra Seastar at some point. She was said to use Valyrian sorcery to maintain her youth and beauty, and I don't think we've ever heard of how she died, sooooo. . .

Bittersteel is presumably serving with the Second Sons and about to found the GC during the D&E timeframe so there's a chance of him showing up as well.

Thanks for posting that LT. I think that seals R+L=J, because I doubt seriously that they would have guessed anything else.

Why do you think it is Winterfell and not Castle Black? After all Castle Black is Snow's castle.

But how would Sansa go to Castle Black?

I guess it's possible, but I don't see any reason why Littlefinger and Sansa would go there.
