OILERMAN Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Yes nothing else matters now the Walking Dead have entered GOT full throttle. Bring on the dragons and the fire. The dragons would be the quickest way to rid the world of the undead for sure Starkiller 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzTitan Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 The two storylines of petty family squabbles versus an army of the undead is really weird. Not in a bad way, but I don't think it's anything a show has really done to the same extent before. It would be like if in the midst of the Breaking Bad storyline the show occasionally cut to the completely unconnected plannings of a terrorist cell that ended up blowing everyone up with a nuke.

FRT Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Better yet, the WD Army kills Ramsey and he wakes up dead and f's up their King. That should give them some time to get the dragons across the narrow sea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) I'm not clear on what happened with the sword Jon used. Was that his sword? It looked like a normal sword and not one made of dragon glass. In the intro, they showed Lord Mormont giving Jon his Valaryian steel sword Longclaw (after Jon saved his life from the wight). Valaryian steel is superior to all other steel and no one even knows how to make it following the Doom of Valyria. At the very least, it was probably all forged in a volcano, but I expect it also was given some sort of magical properties by the Valyrians. I assume that sets Jon up for another sword fight with the White Walkers down the road. Brienne also has a Valyrian steel sword, from Jamie. Joffrey had one, but I don't know what became of it. Bran was attacked by someone with Littlefinger's Valaryian steel dagger in season 1 (he lied and said it was Tyrion's) but I don't know who has it now. Not sure who else might have Valyrian steel now. But they can get obsidian from Dragonstone and whatever minimal stock they still have from what they found on the Fist of the First men that Jon didn't leave behind at Hardhome.

I'm sure they will tie together in the end. But yes, there is this seemingly petty fight about who should sit the Iron Throne while the real fight is brewing beyond the Wall. And people don't even believe that the White Walkers even exist. When the Nights Watch sent out ravens about it, Stannis was the only one to respond at all (mainly because of Missandre). No one even knows this threat is even out there... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sam's father has one too. I imagine quite a few of the major houses have valyrian forged blades. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, but remember that even Tywin Lannister said he couldn't get his hands on any until they took Eddard's sword Ice and melted it down to make 2 new ones. They are too rare to even be available for sale to the richest family in Westeros. there just can't be many out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkiller Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 OK, this page lists all of the known Valyrian steel in the world. I don't consider any of it spoilers, but it does contain info from the books that wasn't in the show so it's up to you if you want to read it. http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Valyrian_steel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I don't remember him saying that. Was that in the show, books, or both? I think he said that when he gave Jamie his Valyrian steel sword at the start of last season. Or perhaps Jaime was the one who said it, but I'm pretty sure it was during that scene.

Yeah I laughed and thought to myself "She's dead". lol... Honestly the show lacks certain grace when foreshadowing and has since day one. There is another really bad instance of this that is going to play out over the next few episodes. I won't spoil it here though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
