Spoilers through Season 5 of ‘Game of Thrones’ follow, as well as discussion of the books.
“My duty is to the realm. How many boys dwell in Westeros? How many girls? How many men, how many women? The darkness will devour them all, she says. The night that never ends. She talks of prophecies . . . a hero reborn in the sea, living dragons hatched from dead stone . . . she speaks of signs and swears they point to me. I never asked for this, no more than I asked to be king. Yet dare I disregard her? We do not choose our destinies. Yet we must . . . we must do our duty, no? Great or small, we must do our duty.”
~ Stannis Baratheon, from A Song of Ice and Fire, speaking of Melisandre and her prophecies.
Jon Snow is dead. Long live Jon Snow.
This was the same feeling I had at the end of the fifth book of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. Jon Snow is dead, but really…he can’t be. Not entirely.
Because Jon Snow is the song of ice and fire. Some book
thoughts/spoilers here, though it’s all theoretical now that the show
and books are neck-and-neck, and viewers and readers are equals.
Jon Snow, I believe, is the son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar
Targaryen, not of Ned Stark though Ned claimed him to protect him for
all those years.
This makes Jon Dany’s nephew (though they’re about the same age,
since she was so much younger than her eldest brother Rhaegar) and a
slayer of White Walkers. He wields one of the last remaining Valyrian
steel blades. Jon Snow is one of the chosen heroes of this saga. Azor
Ahai, maybe.
