Just started ADWD (Roughly 300 pages in, Holy Shit!)

Discussion in 'Game of Thrones (ASOIAF)' started by dabutracing007, Jul 15, 2011.

  1. And I'm confused as shit. At the beginning of Jon's first chapter, when it is Ghost running through the woods. He thinks about how there was 6 of them and he crawled off alone and now there is only 4.... and one he can no longer sense.

    Now is this fat fucker just getting my hopes up that Wolfhead Rob is going to fuck some stuff up (not unrealistic in a world where a woman pops a demon out her twat, a girl can throw herself into a funeral pyre and come out only missing her hair, etc).

    There were 6 direwolves, Sansa's was killed as was Robb's. That would leave 4, what is the shit about "one he can no longer sense"? Or is it 4 and one of those 4 he can no longer sense?

    Or is that Jon's thought drifting in as there were 6 kids and Robb is dead now so that would leave 4 and maybe Bran is the one he can no longer sense? Or Arya since she is so far away.

    Or am I reading far too much into this?

    Thought about this. At first I thought it was Summer that Ghost couldn't sense but then it said that he could sense his brother beyond the wall. Has to be Shaggy Dog. We know Nymeria is terrorizing folks in the Riverlands, Ghost is at the wall or around it, Summer is with Bran, but we've heard nothing from Shaggy Dog, Rickon and Osha so it has to be him

    I thought this at first too but the way it was written confused me. There were 4.. and one he could no longer sense. 4 are all that should be left alive. Where the hell is the one he can no longer sense coming from?

    Glad to see the Starks getting a little revenge now. Fuck Janos Slynt.

    My first post may have been a bit flippant and dismissive. Sorry.

    What I think he meant is that two are dead and one is no longer part of the brood, which would be Nymeria. She is no longer a "Stark" as it were. She's a regular (relatively speaking) dire wolf without a human (warg?) connection. When Arya shooed her away and never reconnected, Nymeria grew more and more feral, culminating in Arya leaving Westeros altogether. That was my take...

    And fuck Jonas Slynt.

    This is how I took it. He can no longer sense one of the Stark kids and thinks they are lost.

    Haey bro you mind not throwing a fuckiing spoiler in the thread title for those of us who havent gotten that far in the books?
     
  11. Re: Just started ADWD (Now 100 pages or so in, through Jon's 2nd or 3rd chapter)

    What the fuck is a spoiler in the title? That I'm through Jon's second or third POV? You can't seriously think that's a spoiler?? I mean if you do, holy shit.

    Too folks still on book 1 or 2, they now know Jon is still alive in book 5...
     
  13. Re: Just started ADWD (Now 100 pages or so in, through Jon's 2nd or 3rd chapter)

    Considering almost every thread ever started about this series mentions Jon's future with the series, etc I'm not sure how that is a spoiler but I'm not gonna throw a fit about it. Someone already changed it I think.

    Holy freaking shit. Rhaeger's son is alive and I was about to kill GRRM if Tyrion died already. So who the fuck is on the dragons now? I mean we know Dany, Bran has been told he will fly so that seems like definitely he is on one (or wargs into one). That leaves 1 dragon (two if one flies one that Bran is in the skin of) Between Rhaeger's son, Jon and Tyrion.

    This shit has been crazy so far.

  16. It's really pissing me off how the Frey's and Bolton's are running around all :smug: right now. I'm actually rooting for Stannis to fuck up the Bolton's to exact some revenge on them. The Frey's can't get their pay back soon enough.
