Does anybody have a clue about the correlation between Sansa and birds?

She is always being referred to as a little bird either by the hound or even herself. Does this foreshadow her becoming one of Varys' little birds?

I'm not sure that Sansa will work for Varys, exactly, although I definitely think the little bird connection is there. "Little birds" refers to Varys's child spies. Rather than foreshadowing Sansa being one of Varys's spies, I think it points to her, a skinchanger, adopting birds as her familiar, in the absence of her direwolf. She's learning the spy game from Baelish unlike the "little birds" who are actually just kids.

Other bird references involving Sansa:

Sweet Robin

She is in the Eyrie, which is literally a large nest for a bird of prey

Littlefinger intends to marry her to Harry the Heir, also known as "The Little Falcon"

And also Littlefinger's personal crest is a bird

I believe the birds foreshadow Sansa embracing her warging abilities and she wargs into birds. I think the reason she hasn't found her warging abilities yet is because she hasn't had a traumatic experience to bring them on yet. Like Bran or Jon or Arya has.

So I think Sansa may have a traumatic experience that unleashes her warging abilities in tWoW and that is probably the "controversial" Sansa chapter that GRRM spoke about

Seeing her father beheaded is pretty traumatic.

I mean a trauma to them physically.

Bran fell.

Some think Robb warged into Grey Wind when he was killed

Some feel Jon being stabbed will awaken his abilities

Arya was blinded

I want to know this too and why they're going to tease this info without telling anyone. I doubt it's as big as R+L=J. Perhaps it's the Hound=Gravedigger theory that was confirmed??

I'm guessing it's a crackpot theory although some on asoiaf are thinking maybe it means tWoW will be released soon.

I know the creators of westeros work with GRRM so I assume they found out a theory was right and not when the next book will be released

Does anyone have a .pdf version of The Princess and the Queen.

I'm coming up zeros on Google.

My thoughts are the same as yours. Either it's a theory or that TWoW will be out in 2015. I'm annoyed they won't share it .

Oh, I definitely think Sansa is going to start warging birds and possibly the Falcon (the sigil of House Arryn). The clues are there, no doubt. Plus there's some major crackpot theories out there about how she can mind read Sandor and Sweetrobin. During Blackwater how she came to remember the "Unkiss", that she was possibly mindreading the Hound (not warging per se, but kind of in touch with his emotions and what was on his mind). And how she was able to get Sweetrobin down the mountain safely and was able to calm him down; could've been another case of Sansa being 'in tune' with his emotions/connecting with him on an emotional sort of level.

I hate Sweetrobin too, but I think he'll die by too many pinches of Sweetsleep and Littlefinger will probably blame Maester Coleman for it.


So what do y'all think these TEASES at Westeros.org mean? "Logistic detail in a long-held theory that is confirmed"

You're killing us. Is it a very popular theory?

It's a logistical detail connected to a popular theory.

will this logistical detail be revealed, perhaps?

In The World of Ice and Fire, yes.

On my rewatch of the series. Just finished the Pilot, on Episode 2 now. Pilot is absolute perfection.

Am I the only one who thought of the princess bride when Oberlyn was fighting the mountain?
