So, Daenerys returns to the Targaryn castle, which is the same caste where that Baitball Blogger Jul 2017 #36

Stannis Baratheon held that castle in the books NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #39

Why did Daenerys pick that location when she's never been to Westeros? Baitball Blogger Jul 2017 #49

It was the Targaryen family home, her family home, before Stannis inherited it nt geek tragedy Jul 2017 #50

Okay. That's what I wanted to confirm. Baitball Blogger Jul 2017 #51

She was born there, right? VermontKevin Jul 2017 #72

I believe so, but not sure if that's the case in the television series as well nt geek tragedy Jul 2017 #79

Yes NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #40

I wondered if it was Danys' brother avebury Jul 2017 #41

That was pretty good. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #42

brilliant idea. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2017 #58

lol! It would be in keeping with how Mance got into Winterfell. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #66

That opening scene. OH MY GAWD!!!! Catmusicfan Jul 2017 #43

Sansa will most likely marry exboyfil Jul 2017 #53

Lyanna Mormont would be done with Sweet Robin in a matter of days. politicat Jul 2017 #85

It would be a huge step up for Lyanna exboyfil Jul 2017 #86

Only if she marries him and OD's him ASAP. politicat Jul 2017 #87

I'd rather Sansa died then. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #67

I think she knows she is on a suicide run exboyfil Jul 2017 #52

What I was wondering NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #55

She had minimal contact with Gregor exboyfil Jul 2017 #57

The actor playing Payne NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #60

I wondered about that, too. But he can die by fire - and that would be fitting, yes? Solly Mack Jul 2017 #69

Dunno. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #68

Seeking revenge seems to be the crux of the series. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2017 #59

I think you can also say family problems drive the series NewJeffCT Jul 2017 #61

As in Romeo and Juliet, revenge born of pride drove the killing. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2017 #71

I think survival drives the series. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #70

I respect Martin for gaining inspiration from writing prose. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2017 #73

Sure. Take his side. :) Solly Mack Jul 2017 #74

I've only recently (since DT Day) taken this show to heart. SleeplessinSoCal Jul 2017 #75

They are that. I'm looking forward to how Martin deals with them. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #76

Per fandom, Arya has +5 plot armor. politicat Jul 2017 #84

I agree! It would be a waste. Solly Mack Jul 2017 #88
