    The best part of ASOIAF is that it's like a thousand fantastic stories all wrapped into one. An entire series could be written about Beric, Thoros, and the BWB, so to realize it's just a small piece in the puzzle that makes up the greater story just makes you realize how truly amazing these books are.

      “Well,” said the singer, “you’ve got us there, my lord. That was a lie of sorts, as it happens.”

    So, if I'm hearing this right, Thoros didn't have to sacrifice anyone to bring Beric back. Perhaps there's hope for Shireen Baratheon yet. But given Melisandre and Selyse's fanaticism, something tells me the princess is doomed anyway.
    PS- Beric and Thoros were two of the coolest characters in the series. The showrunners completely failed them.

      Maybe the sacrifice for the red God is a part of Beric's personality everytime he's brought back. Just a theory though

    • @ashleyofnaath
      @ashleyofnaath Před 3 lety +14

      @John Trevolter That's what I fear. Melisandre will burn Shireen to raise Jon Snow without Stannis's consent. I'll be interested to see how that affects Jon and Stannis's relationship. I also see that serving to connect Jon to Rhaegar as tragedy precipitating their "births" and the subsequent impact it has on their personalities. Maybe Jon frequents the location where it happens like Rhaegar frequented Summerhall.

White walkers are often called Others in the books, and it says Craster worships dark gods (the white walkers) so personally I think the Great Other is going to be the book version of the Night King. But others are convinced there'll be no Night King because GRRM never refers to him as "the Night King" in the book.
