Nope Sansa knows he's alive. So does every person who thinks he and Rickon died together only to discover Rickon didn't actually die.


well no they don't know he is alive

it would make sense for them to wonder if he is still alive since Rickon was alive, but they do not know

nobody ever got a chance to talk to Rickon

Doesn't TV Jon know Bran was going north of the wall?

But that decree was lost with Lady Mormont's mother.

Also if bran just shows up, Winterfell is his, he is a natural born son.



I don't remember it being lost. It doesn't matter much though, because the bannermen still signed it and can confirm they did (the ones who are still alive at least).


Ultimately I do believe Bran will be Warden of the North once Jon and Danaerus are ruling the 7K

It bothers you that the crippled brother no one has seen in 6 seasons isn't brought up?


Are you talking about the trueborn lord of Winterfell, Eddard Stark's last true born son, and for all everyone knows the heir to the last King in the North? You're goddamn right.

2 people definitively know he was not killed by Theon. Everyone else at least knows Rickon wasn't. Not a stretch to expect one person to say "hey is that bran guy alive too" especially before claiming a bastard king in the north

I don't think Jaime can be considered the official heir while he is still part of the Kinsguard.


Wasn't he removed from the Kingsguard by Tommen?

He'll be one of your main conflicts with Dany before the big endgame.

just because someone didn't die at a point in time, doesn't mean they are alive.

But it dos mean they could be alive.
I agree his omission is odd. As is Arya's.

I expect both to show up in the second episode of next season.

This is correct. One thing should be clear by now in this world: until someone is proven to be dead, the possibility of life must be considered. It's poor writing to have them all fully ignore and forget Bran

Really doubt the horn comes into play in the show. Seems like it would have been a key talking point at the Kingsmoot.

And Dany has plenty of obstacles left. She has to win the throne (oddly the easiest of her challenges), win over the people, somehow convert the Dothraki to Westerosi life (probably the biggest challenge), and defeat the Ice zombies that threaten all of civilization.

Yes, Sam and Gilly rant into Bran & company at the Nightfort, and Sam told Jon that Bran was going north of the wall.

Aerys being Jon's dad makes no fricking sense, either stylistically or logistically. There's no indication or hint that Lyanna and Aerys ever even met. We have proof via anecdote and prophecy that Lyanna and Rhaegar fell in love at the tourney at Harrenhal. We also know Rhaegar thought he needed another child to be the third head on the three headed dragon. Not to mention the most revered Targaryen of all time, Aegon the conqueror, had two wives so it's not unheard of.

As far as bran knowing goes, a big question for me is if he put two and two together. Pretty sure he realizes the baby is Jon, but did he hear/realize Rhaegar is the father? Considering bran is with Meera Reed and he just saw her father be the only other witness to ToJ, I think the stage is set for Bran to seek out Howland Reed to provide the final answer and confirmation.

I also don't understand the line of thought that Jon replaces the Night's King, unless it's via sorcery. Only way I could've seen that happening was if his resurrection had changed his personality drastically, but I think the show would've started to hint at that had it been the case. I just don't see what sort of mechanism or reasoning could lead to Jon becoming the leader of the Others. If anyone joins the Others I think Euron is the best bet. But with only 13 episodes left it sets up pretty well to deal with Cersei, Euron, and LF as human bad guys and then you still have to have the meeting/reconciliation of Jon and Dany. That's the first 7 episodes, then the last 6 are essentially the fight against the Others/Night King

The Hodor thread is entering GOAT territory.

-One dude thinks the dragons need to either ride a boat or swim to Westeros

-Another doesn't understand why Arya wanted to kill Walder Frey.

-Yet another is still asking who's Jon Snow's mother.

I have no idea why they would bring in Euron if they didn't

she has to face some type of real conflict, as in war wise, next season (assuming we don't get real fight with WW till the final season)

Dany just rolling through everyone all the way to KL's landing doesn't make for that much drama

Not one person who signed it is still alive.

Red Wedding, then Ramsay killed Roose.

Obviously Lady Mormont died, because a kid is in charge now.

We're just saying why not show it at the kingsmoot if he had it? He's not guaranteed to win, so why hide his most powerful piece? Makes no sense
