Yeah, NIH has the truth of it I'm sure. The Huntsman's house is a proud one, and I've always seen a strong correlation between them and the Boltons - frustration from forever second fiddle to a richer, more powerful house that they view as an equal at best. Mace getting the cred for Tarly's military acumen only fanning the flames.

Remember Daemon's green dream? Saying that "he saw Dunk the greatest knight in all the land, and a dragon rising from a castle, a castle of snow".

The Brienne connection is pretty straight forward looking back at it now...didn't catch that cuz I was too obsessed w R+L=J at the time. The dragon rising I saw as a ref to Jon - at first with the snowy castle representing The North or even Castle Black, but especially after reading about Sansa's Winterfell made of snow and then the current state of Winterfell.

And will Bran spill the beans?

Doubt it. With great power comes greater responsibility, and He's Ned's son for sure in attitude, even for one so young. I just hope I (we) are wrong about B Raven's intentions and he doesn't lead Bran astray before he's finished biodegrading completely.

Whoops - what I was replying to in the first place:

I'm more and more convinced that the "Giant" that destroyed Sansa's snow castle is LF-his small stature lost in the massive shadow of his ambition and/or greed, developing into a potentially devastating destructive force- and his sights are set on everything Sansa holds dear: her mother, her home, the stroke of the Stark name, and of course her family's lands and incomes.
