Jesus I'm late to this party. Too lazy to read it all now...

Seems to me that Maester Aemon hit the nail on the head when he indicated, on his deathbed, that Daenerys was Azor Azhai reborn. Makes sense, Targaryen, Dragons, and a clear "paladin" mentality".

Martin has made it clear that he'll fuck anybody. That was the entire point of killing Ned in the first place, to make it clear that anybody can die at any time. I think Jon Snow's human body will die, and he'll live on as Ghost. Robb did legitimize Jon Snow, but who's left that knows and/or can prove that? If Jon Snow really is Azor Azhai then I agree that Melisandre will have to save him and figure it out (not necessarily in that order... probably figure it out whilst saving him)- that or his being Azor Azhai just keeps him from dying... I don't see any reason that Azor Azhai reborn needs to be a Targaryen.

I've not really discussed this with people, never heard the Rhaegar + Lyanna = Jon Snow but that makes a lot of sense. I guess I just didn't really care that much, I read Dance with Dragons right away when it came out and before that it'd been 4.5 years since I last read any of the others. Unlike all these preppy new kids, I started reading the series in like 2000!
