Re: Not so important connections

cersey got herself a little prophecy as a girl. she asked the magi - an old witch of lanisport to read her future in her blood, mainly to see that she will marry rghar targarine (I'm sure there are at least seven spelling mistakes in that name). The magei told her that she will marry the king, not the prince. cersey asked how many children will they have - the magei answered - he will have 16 you shell have three, their crowns will be golden as their shrouds and something about being killed by a little brother (valanquer in valerian).
All in all, happy life and tommen and little Marcella are going to die. Marcella is going to be queen, yey!

Re: Not so important connections

It dose makes sense in a sort of manga blind assassin sort of way. But its also a very interesting way of training so...
I think its temporary, but hey, I thought eddard is immortal too.

Re: Not so important connections

Yeah but after four books I think you're a bit wiser than you were at the start.

I loved the thing Arya had going in Braavos. She was friends with everyone and Braavos sounds like a pretty cool place. Finally I thought she'd found some sort of life.

Re: Not so important connections

If that was the case, she would have got out of the plot. Becoming a faceless means loosing your face in a way, ceasing to be the person you were and becoming death's servant. No more arya. She is training, but she would not find home. On the long run, she remains arya stark or leave the plot, ipso ergo she can not complete her transformation in to a faceless.

Re: Not so important connections

Mhm. I hope things turn out alright for her, she's been through stuff that no-one, let alone a child, should have to go through.

I thought it was strange that GRRM changed Sansa's name at the start of the chapters where she went under a different name as Littlefinger's bastard daughter, but didn't change Arya's name when she went under her different names.

Re: Not so important connections

It’s not so much of a fine cut. the is a chapter named "the ally cat". The point is ayra resonates between so many personas, but she is still arya in the core. sansa on the other hand is becoming very much aylin stone.

Re: Not so important connections

Yeah that was strange as well that GRRM started using like 'Captain of the Guard' and such. I wish it was more consistent.

The poisoned milk that turned her blind was left out for Arya Stark. All she needs to do is change her identity like Jaqen H'ghar and she will no longer be Arya Stark and therefore no longer blind.

Re: Not so important connections

I personally prefer her stark and blind than a seeing faceless.
