Okay so first things first.
I really love Tyrion. Even though he was a drunken mess I think he handled
with class. He's just a nice guy deep down beneath it all. <3 If only one character survives this series, I hope it's him.
I also like how Jon Snow developed a personality when he met Ygritte. I mean, he is the hottest thing on this show but he was kind of boring before.
Anyway then so I'm gonna go watch the Red Wedding now toodles. ~

From what I'm reading from popular and seemingly well-constructed fan theories, which seem to network nicely together (which to me makes them more convincing 
), the end is going to be pretty fucking horrific (in a good way 
). If the fan theories are wrong, I hope GRRM can do something even better. I hate when fan theories are so much better than the reality.
If they are all (or mostly) true, does anyone think they know of a story better weaved than this one? If so, do tell. I'm no reader, so there could be plenty . Mention one at least .

Just finished re-reading Clash of Kings! 
I'm wondering what to make of this...
I'm wondering what to make of this...
In the final chapter (Bran's POV), while he's inside of Summer, Bran sees this:
"The smoke and ash clouded his eyes, and in the sky he saw a great winged snake whose roar was a river of flame."
When Bran is inside of Summer, he sees things as a wolf might see them. E.g. in the same paragraph, he sees a "pile of man-rock" (which is probably the crumbling walls of Winterfell). Because as a wolf, he has no comprehension of what architecture is and a crumbled wall is just a pile of man-rock, no matter which part of the castle it fell from.
The things that summer sees may be open to interpretation because as a wolf, he sees things in a very literal sense. He compares the unknown to things that he does know. He knows what the following things are, in order to make the comparrison between what he knows and what he saw: wings, snakes, roaring noise, rivers, flames.
What could he have seen in the sky over Winterfell that looked like a snake with wings that roars fire?
Because his eyes were clouded by smoke and ash, I assume he only saw a vague outline of this flying snake creature. And despite what Summer saw, Bran doesn't raise any questions about it when he returns to his own body a few moments later. Maybe because Summer didn't think too much of it, Bran didn't either...?
I'm inclined to believe that what Bran sees through Summer is literal, whereas what he sees in his dreams is greenseeing. Of course what Summer saw sounds a lot like a dragon. While the size of the creature is not indicated, his roar was a river of flame, indicating that it was large enough. It wasn't a trickling stream of flame...
If it is a dragon, perhaps it woke during the burning of Winterfell? It can't be that a dragon's egg hidden away at Winterfell somehow hatched in the flames and carnage because as we've seen with Dany's dragons, they can't fly as hatchlings. Is it possible that there was a dormant dragon somewhere in the area that awoke during the devastation?

Game of Thrones gets 19 Emmy nominations
No surprise with Peter Dinklage getting nominated, I'm a bit surprised about Lena Headey.
Rose Leslie is gonna be on The Last Witch Hunter with Vin Diesel
Also Myrcella got recast for season 5. No surprise there.

In my mind there is no wondering; I literally cannot imagine what it can be except a dragon.
