Think she's coming back?

I am, of course, talking about Nymeria. Ever since A Game of Thrones I've been waiting for her to come wandering back to Arya and then they happily re-unite and start kicking everyone's ass. But so far it hasn't happened, obviously, although they came close a few times when Arya was being shuffled back and forth through the riverlands, when Arya had a couple of wolf dreams about her. I totally thought she was going to wander into their campsite... damn.

So you guys think she'll come back? If so, do you think she'll recognize Arya? Will she ever be like Ghost or Summer for Arya?

Here's what I think:
Nymeria's story parallels Arya's in a few different ways. Arya is learning new crap from just about everyone she meets, and as her skill/experience gets larger, so too does the legend surrounding the gigante pack of wolves that Nymeria is leading. Both characters are wanderers, seperated from their 'pack' as it were. Some sort of re-uniting event would complete the cycle in which Martin has placed both characters.

Then you have Arya's wolf dreams. That I think says enough. Nymeria is stable enough to allow Arya into her mind a la Summer or Ghost (or even grey Wind... anyone else think Robb could warg Grey Wind in some sort of limited fasion?), so I don't think Nymeria would be aggressive or not remember Arya.

I hope so. Arya kicks ass and so does Nymeria.

A reunion would be nice, warm and fuzzy. I don't think GRRM's into that.

Yes, Arya and Nymeria have been seperated from their packs and have survived and found new packs. If they reflect each other, then I think this means that Arya will not rejoin the Starks.

Lady was killed for Nymeria's actions. If the wolves foreshadow the Starks, then look for Sansa to be killed for something Arya does.

Bran may hook up with Nymeria.

Or maybe Stoneheart - now that would be something.
