I'm holding out for a Jon and Val hookup. That along with an Arya and Gendry hookup. Both would make me happy.

Val? Am I missing who this is? I haven't read these books in a while.

The Wildling Princess, Dalla's sister and wife of Mance Rayder. She brought Tormund Giantbane to Jon when she rode out pretty bravely to find him beyond the wall. I think Jon is a little smitten or at least respects her. She seems to be a bit more than what she's portrayed as IMO.

This is why they shouldn't hook up, unless Mance dies

Yeah, I remember her now. Like someone else said though, her being married to Mance causes problems.

Naturally. I just think he croaks before it's all said and done.

When Jon rises from a stone grave, he will waken the dragon (himself). Lol

I just hope she's hot in the show, because she sounds like she is smoking in the book

Arya doesn't hook up with guys, she kills them.

Yeah, I'm hoping Jon winds up with his wildling princess and unites the wildings and the kingdoms together a bit more.

Just to fix some confusion, Val is not Mance's wife. Val is the sister of Mance's wife, who died in childbirth.

Val was actually with Jarl, one of the guys that went south of the wall with Jon, Ygritte, and Styr. Jarl wound up falling to his death climbing the wall.

Discussion is far past this but all I could think was: was there any doubt that Arya was going to find a way to save Ned when they tried to execute him? Remember who we're dealing with here. The next words he wrote were probably "and his head rolls to his sister's feet"

I love reading about all these theories.


True enough. Personally I think Bran will be the one to save Theon by speaking through the heartstree before Stannis cuts off his head.

Then I got her and Dalla confused I'm guessing.

Either way, I'd still like to see Jon with Val.

Agreed. They have good chemistry in the books (at least when Jon lets himself and isn't all hard core commander mode), and she's pretty bad arse in her own right.

And Dany and Jon is just more of the same ugh incest that's all over in the series. Jon needs to stop that Targ tradition.

And I think with Dany, her one true love was Khal Drogo. I can't see anyone ever eclipsing that for her.

They are probably the most interesting players in the Games as they are the most mysterious. They have been extremely quiet throughout, but it is obvious they are a very calculating people who already had a role in one Dance of Dragons.


Especially now that Jaqen is there for some odd reason. What the hell does that guy have up his sleeve?

I like Val and expect to see her hook up with Jon, but that probably means she'll die to clear the way for Jon and Dany.

Help me out here... Where is Jaqen? My memory is really failing me or I glossed over it in the book.
