ASOIAF / Game of Thrones (SPOILERS INSIDE)

[Rogean]

Jon is no longer an acceptable name in this thread. He shall now be referred to as Aegon. AeJon is also acceptable.

That is all.

Also dumb. Rhaegar marries Elia, they have 2 children named Rhaenys and Aegon. Rhaegar meets Lyanna at the tourney at Harrenhall, within 12 months Rhaegar then secretly annuls his marriage to Elia, absconds with Lyanna then travels roughly 2,000 miles south to the northern part of Dorne, then marries Lyanna. Then Rickard and Brandon Stark are killed by the Mad King, Robert's Rebellion breaks out, and Rhaegar believes he can kill Robert and end the war. So Rhaegar leaves preggo Lyanna at the Tower of Joy with Ser Arthur Dayne (literally the greatest fighter in the history of Westeros), and rides off to fight Robert. As you all know, Rhaegar dies. Then Tywin sacks the city, Robert & Ned arrive at KL, and the corpses of Rhaenys and Aegon are presented to Robert as proof of Tywin's loyalty. Robert is wounded at this point, and so Ned travels without him to lift the siege at Storm's End (rescuing Stannis), and then travels down to the Tower of Joy, has a 7 vs 3 mortal kombat with the King's Guard, runs inside the tower, and finds Lyanna lying in a bed of blood asking Ned to keep a promise. Lyanna was hidden away at the Tower of Joy, and since everyone knew Rhaegar was not there, there's no point to send a raven to the ToJ, furthermore, no one from Robert's side would have sent a raven to a supposed Targaryen held location with updates. And I'm suppose to believe that Lyanna said "fuck Elia, fuck baby Aegon, and fuck Rhaegar. I'm naming him Aegon cause I want to". I just don't buy it. I suspect they are going to merge some Young Griff story into Jon, or, they are just giving the finger to book readers on this one. In the book, I still expect his name to be Aemon for a few different reasons.

It showed Sansa thinking for her self, the Stark family resolve, and the satisfaction of vengeance for dead Ned. Those kids are tight and only have themselves.

lol no. Sansa and Arya's fued was very real. there's a deleted scene of Sansa going to Bran and asking for help, and Bran taps into wierwood.net to tell her all of Baelish's fuckery. It had absolutely nothing to do with Sansa thinking for herself, and everything to do with Sansa having an omniscient demigod-like little brother. Arya and Sansa have never, ever been "tight" with each other.

Heard the Night King is going to be played by a new actor in Season 8. confirm?

doesn't matter, they've already replaced him once in the past, and still haven't replaced him more times than the actor(s) playing Gregor Clegane.

@Sirken

I've not read the entire book series however from what I have read and little tidbits online; Layanna and Rhaegar according to the books didn't have a child. And, Layanna died in the tower after suffering some type of wounds and catching a fever. What the hell am I missing?

Is the child (*Jon Snow) only introduced in the TV series, or do I need to read the books and save face?

I'm satisfied... I try to remember this is just a TV show, that has been trying to wrap itself up. It can't possibly go into everything I would like it to. The only thing I'm really mad about is having to wait 2 years to see the ending.
