re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

Faegon almost certainly won't. I think Arianne will be our eyes in King's Landing once Cersei is eliminated, and once Jon Con dies from grey scale or is killed by Varys once he figures out that Aegon isn't who he thinks he is. Definitely think Jon Con will also die knowing that Jon Snow is Rhaegar's true heir, and ironically die thinking that he was his name's stake and the one he should have been protecting.

If Varys does get one, it will be an Epilogue for ADOS.

Once again, I agree with you on all of this. Arianne will put her whore powers to work and seal a marriage alliance with Faegon. However, I think it's going to bite her in the arse once the Others head south and Dany lands. I don't see her surviving the series.

I wonder if Doran knew that he was sending Quentyn on a suicide mission and that Doran was positioning Trystane to be his heir by eliminating Quentyn and Arianne from the succession (risking Quentyn to die in Essos, and Arianne being Queen would eliminate her from inheriting Dorne). Plus Doran knows that Arianne is hot headed like Oberyn was...and look at what happened to Oberyn going to King's Landing. Death. Elia died there too. I don't see why Arianne would be any different.

I also think the Tyrells are going to attempt to switch sides again, depending on what happens in Margaery's trial. Or perhaps Randyll Tarly and the Hightowers decide to go rogue against their liege lord and declare for Faegon.

Oh, and I think Varys will kill JonCon one he's of no use to him anymore. I could see Varys doing what he did to Kevan, except change the facts around:

-He told Kevan that Aegon was alive and well, being groomed for power; on the flip slide, he'll tell JonCon that Aegon is in fact a fake, or a Blackfyre, or Brightflame, and that the real heir is Jon Snow (although, I have no clue how Varys would find out about R+L=J). I could very well see JonCon dying from his greyscale too. It's just a matter of figuring out how Jon will prove his parentage to the Realm, or how this information would be revealed from the Wall to Dorne.
