Quote:Granny -Do Targaryens become immune to fire once they "bond" to their dragons?

George_RR_Martin -Granny, thanks for asking that. It gives me a chance to clear up a common misconception. TARGARYENS ARE NOT IMMUNE TO FIRE! (emphasis mine) The birth of Dany's dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived. But her brother sure as hell wasn't immune to that molten gold.

Quote:Benioff continued, “Anything is permissible because really its just that all means justify the proper end and the proper end is Stannis sitting on the throne. So it is a very good question if it is so much that he really wants to be king because he has always had this massive desire to rule the Seven Kingdoms and you never really hear about what he wants to do for the people of Westeros. It’s not about his vision for what a king could be. It’s just, it’s mine, this is my right.”

Quote:Surprisingly, Stannis smiled at that. “You’re bold enough to be a Stark. Yes, I should have come sooner. If not for my Hand, I might not have come at all. Lord Seaworth is a man of humble birth, but he reminded me of my duty, when all I could think of was my rights. I had the cart before the horse, Davos said. I was trying to win the throne to save the kingdom, when I should have been trying to save the kingdom to win the throne.”

Quote:“It is not a question of wanting. The throne is mine, as Robert’s heir. That is law. After me, it must pass to my daughter, unless Selyse should finally give me a son. I am king. Wants do not enter into it. I have a duty to my daughter. To the realm. Even to Robert. He loved me but little, I know, yet he was my brother.”

Quote:“I made him Hand, and he would have sold my rights for a bowl of pease porridge. He would even even have given them Shireen. Mine only child, he would have wed to a bastard born of incest.”

Quote:“It may be that we shall lose this battle,” the king said grimly. “In Braavos you may hear that I am dead. It may even be true. You shall find my sellswords nonetheless.”

The knight hesitated. “Your Grace, if you are dead —”

“— you will avenge my death, and seat my daughter on the Iron Throne. Or die in the attempt.”

Quote:“A sacrifice will prove our faith still burns true, Sire,” Clayton Suggs had told the king. And Godry the Giantslayer said, “The old gods of the north have sent this storm upon us. Only R’hllor can end it. We must give him an unbeliever.”

“Half my army is made up of unbelievers,” Stannis had replied. “I will have no burnings. Pray harder.”

Quote:"What is the life of one bastard boy against an entire kingdom?"

"Everything.

Quote:“Enough.” Dany slapped the table. “No one will be left to die. You are all my people.” Her dreams of home and love had blinded her. “I will not abandon Meereen to the fate of Astapor. It grieves me to say so, but Westeros must wait.”

Few of the birds that Aemon had sent off had returned as yet. One reached Stannis, though. One found Dragonstone, and a king who still cared.

Quote:“What do the smallfolk say of Renly’s death? “

“They grieve. Your brother was well loved.”

“Fools love a fool,” grumbled Stannis, “but I grieve for him as well. For the boy he was, not the man he grew to be.”

…“Only Renly could vex me so with a piece of fruit. He brought his doom on himself with his treason, but I did love him, Davos. I know that now. I swear, I will go to my grave thinking of my brother’s peach.”

----

Viserys had been stupid and vicious, she had come to realize, yet sometimes she missed him all the same. Not the cruel weak man he had become by the end, but the brother who had sometimes let her creep into his bed, the boy who told her tales of the Seven Kingdoms, and talked of how much better their lives would be once he claimed his crown.

Quote:"Glowing like sunset, a red sword was raised in the hand of a blue-eyed king who cast no shadow."

Quote:And it is important that the individual books refer to the civil wars, but the series title reminds us constantly that the real issue lies in the North beyond the Wall. Stannis becomes one of the few characters fully to understand that, which is why in spite of everything he is a righteous man, and not just a version of Henry VII, Tiberius or Louis XI.

Τα συναισθήματα μου για αυτό που είδα αποτυπώνονται σε αυτή την εικόνα

Λοιπόν μπορώ να καταλάβω γιατί η Shireen θα πεθάνει οκ το δέχομαι. Αλλά γιατί να πεθάνει έτσι? Δυο θεωρίες έχω 1.γιατι είναι η Nissa Nissa του Stannis και 2. Γιατί η Brienne ή η Dany αν και όταν σκοτώσει μια από τις δυο τον Stannis δεν πρέπει να σκοτώσουν τον ήρωα που έσωσε τον Jon και το Τοίχος αλλά πρέπει να σκοτώσουν ένα τέρας που θυσίασε την κόρη του.

Πολύ πιο σκληρό από τον Red Wedding τουλάχιστον ο Robb και η Cat είχαν μερίδιο ευθύνης για ότι έγινε, η  Shireen όμως?
Έχω να νιώσω έτσι για φανταστικό χαρακτήρα από τότε που σκοτώθηκε ο Sirius!

Μετά είχα άδικο εγώ που είμαι book purist ε?
