re: Is it Possible Maester Aemon knew who Jon's real Mother was? (Spoilers maybe)

So who is the third head gonna be? Tyrion?

Tyrion would be the surprise for most I think. The obvious two seem to be Dany and Jon. I suppose you could argue that Meera is a potential third instead of Tyrion.

The problem is the warning. Now, we don't have a lot of this on the show, but "Kraken and Dark Flame" - they're together, right, Victarion and Moqorro - we have neither and currently no real analogue (Yara/Asha is the Victarion placeholder on the show - so, right now, Theon seems really, really unlikely as the dark flame), Griffin and Lion - Griff and Tyrion were traveling together to reach Dany (before Tyrion altered events, suggesting prophecy may be imperfect and malleable to a degree), the sun's son is Quentyn.

So, the mummer's dragon - is it Young Griff/Aegon -

Or is it Jon Snow?

While I'm not enamored of all the repeated, somewhat predictable tropes that Martin uses, twists, reuses, I do appreciate the depth and richness - of course, he does not exercise any sort of brevity in doing this, but does it rather by brute force. Consider the universe created by F. Scott Fitzgerald in The Great Gatsby - the characters, the conflicts, the statements about class, wealth, privilege, destiny - he does ALL of that in 189 pages (paperback).

Read 189 pages and you're barely past the quarter mark of the first book of ASOIAF.
