They said they decided Arya would do the deed in 2016 because that would be “super badass” or something like that. I can’t imagine how two people so acquainted with the story would make that decision. They must be verifiably retarded.



Do you think Martin would have written the NK's death anything close? This season is just the producers and show writers trying to quickly wrap up Martin's world. I had a feeling there were going to be some stupid turns.

Well the NK is a show invention, he isn’t in the books, at least not yet. On one hand no, I can not see GRRM doing what D&D did in the show. He seems to like to have prophecy come true but in fun and twisting ways, Arya ending the WWs isn’t prophecy coming true in any way at all...and in that sense that’s also something I could see GRRM doing, like a 10% chance of it, to say something like “Prophecy is sometimes bullshite”. I think that’s the direction he’s going with the Game of Thrones thing, at the end nobody will have it.

You’re right about forecasting the stupid turns. Everyone should have seen it coming from how they handled the Dorne plot and their removal of the Blackfyres. It’s best to just view this as something separate from the books which makes it fine I guess, even good, but not great.
