TBF the CotF kind of deserve to die after what we learned.
Aeron is not even a character, he could be Drowned God priest #3 and it changes nothing.This character assassination can only be described as Stannis-esque.
Was it ever mentioned that The Wall also has some magic barrier besides being physically huge?
What about the Horn of Joramun? I thought the WW had possession of it?
If Bran turns out to be at the center of every major event that has happened in history I'm gong to lose my shit.
No one wants to remember this. LOL.
We really don't know the exact details of how the Wall was built. But numerous characters have said that the wall has magical properties. Hell this is a talking gate in the Nightfort. I assume the Night's King has leveled up his skill tree enough to negate all magic via arm grab.Wouldn't the magic that protects the Wall and the magic that protected Bloodraven's cave be different? The Wall was built by humans, did they use the CotF's magic to do so?
Man i need to re-read the books already, so much stuff i can't remember.
Yes, it was mentioned numerous times. Mel says her magic is stronger at the wall. I believe the legend of its creation mentions that there are spells and magic "woven" into the wall. Coldhands also says he can't go past it because of its wards. And yes, the aforementioned talking gate.Was it ever mentioned that The Wall also has some magic barrier besides being physically huge?

Why call him Aeron then? Just let him be some random drowned priest.Aeron is not even a character, he could be Drowned God priest #3 and it changes nothing.
Bran's arc is really kinda unforgivable. It's really fucked up.
- His own curiosity and naughtiness got himself paralyzed by Jaime.
- His "destiny" across the wall costs the life of Jogen.
- After finally finding safety and being taught very important magic shit, his own impatience ruins it all.
- He gets Bloodraven killed.
- He gets all the Children of the Forest killed.
- He gets Summer killed.
- He then retroactively ruins Hodor's life forever and then gets him killed just to hold a door to let them get away.
Holy shit. What a cunt.
I have no idea, since he isn't going through his Kingsmoot arc, he has zero purpose in the show. And the show was quite fond of trimming sibling counts.Why call him Aeron then? Just let him be some random drowned priest.

No one knows where the horn is, but many assume it's with Sam. If you remember, he found the dragonglass and horn way back in ACOK/Season 2. The horn has more significance in the book, but they do show Sam get a horn in the show as well. Mance claims to have found the horn and threatens Jon with it, but Tormund later says it wasn't the real horn.
If Melisandres magic is stronger at the Wall, wouldn't that imply that the magic used to build/strengthen the Wall is more likely related to the magic of the Red God?I forgot all about that. Been a while since I read the books. I wasn't sure. I guess it makes sense that Bran travelling south will allow the Night King to break the barrier then. They'll probably end the season with that.
I wonder if the big final stand against the White Walkers will be at Winterfell or further south.
My Lord, my God. Holy crap.
"Let's go kill my nephew and niece!"The writing in the iron islands plot was so dumb. Meh.
I commend HBO for continuing to find the highest quality boobs
Too bad they only had warty dicks.I commend HBO for continuing to find the highest quality boobs
- Euron will build his ships within a week.
Can someone explain to me how they are ruining the Kingsmoot storyline in the show?
So far, it's been just as bad and uninteresting as I remember it being from the book.

If the wall does come tumbling down (thanks, Edd) then I presume the final battle will be at Winterfell. I wouldn't be surprised if the vast majority of the characters in the show, especially ones whose story arcs are more related to politics, never witness or garner any proof of the WW ever existing.I wonder if the big final stand against the White Walkers will be at Winterfell or further south.
Well it looks like they already got a head start on cutting down those trees.- Euron will build his ships within a week.
Just what the WW need: magic missiles.Oh shit does this mean we'll see undead Hodor?
Undead children of the forest?
Undead direwolf... Goddammit...

What if the prophecy's dany saw in the tower was based on previous timeline as?So obviously bloodraven knew about the loop - there was no other reason to take bran back to this specific scene at that very moment.
I guess the entire world is hold within a loop. At some point bran realizes that the loop has to be sustained to keep this universe alive so he wargs back a millenia, becomes the bloodraven and sets all the major events in motion. Trying to get it right groundhog day style. This has been going on for hundrets if not thousand circles now. Carefully setting up the players to finally beat the WW.

In the final episode they either have to win to end the circle or bran just wargs back to start over again. Which we wont see... biggest cliffhanger ever.

Wouldn't a Wall made by the WW rather prevent humans from trespassing the nothern lands instead of keeping themselves out of the southern lands? In short, why would they build something that keeps them away?Random speculation: After turning on the Children, the Others fought a long war against them and Men. Then, a truce was negotiated, because it was a stalemate with equal casualties on both sides. It was then brokered that the Others stay in the very north, while Men ventured south (no idea what was decided regarding the Children.)
Now, it was never Men who built the wall. It was the folks that we know have magic abilities and are able to manipulate masses of ice. Like one would need to build such a crazy large structure that is, as we know, interwoven with magic.
So yeah, the Others built the wall, making peace on the condition that Men would have to stay south. Over the centuries, this condition was ignored and wildlings settled north of the wall. To keep those in check, the Night's Watch would send rangers to check out wildling activities.
The Others didn't like Men roaming around north of the wall, became aggro'd and our story begins.
There will not be a great war against the Others. There will be a great negotiation, a great truce. Some hero will bring peace via diplomacy.
Thoughts?

Ramsay's gonna fucking kill Ghost.My only gripe with the episode is as someone else said; That essentially D&D are using the Direwolves as fodder. Its annoying. Why wouldn't Summer run?
I swear if Ghost if doesn't survive I'm gonna go nuts
But why didn't he just grab some random Night's Watch guy, brand him, and send him back to the wall? Can he only brand people in dreams? Only greenseers? Someone explain this dude's superpowers to me.
I honestly believe that is going to happen.Ramsay's gonna fucking kill Ghost.
