Cersei deserves the mother of the year award.
Incest with her entire family then raises psycho children! YES.

better late than never!

i have a buddy thats convinced Stannis is still azor azai. personally i believe Stannis will become the 1000th lord commander of the nights watch.

nissa nissa = ygritte? i dunno about that. John didnt kill Ygritte, nor did he sacrifice her. if John is AA, then i could see nissa nissa being Arya. if Stannis is AA, then nissa nissa could be stannis' wife or daughter.

that being said, im starting to believe Aegon is the mummers dragon that was prophesied to Dany. im also thinking Aegon is a Blackfyre, although theres not much concrete evidence to support that.

RE:AA We know that Dany is the front-runner for AA. She killed Drogo, the thing she loved the most, and used the power of his and Mirri Maz Duur's sacrifices to quicken Lightbringer, the dragons. Jon would have to be a blindside from a heretofore unknown evidence line. The others that could have some validity to them other than Dany would be Davos Seaworth, and (a very weak chance imo) Bran Stark.

-Davos was reborn amidst the Battle of the Blackwater, salt and smoke, under the Red Comet. He also loves his remaining son immensely and may be in a position to sacrifice him to R'hllor, being in and around that particular religious cult.

-When you read about Bran's emergence from the Winterell catacombs after the Ironmen and then Ramsay Bolton had destroyed it, there is a metaphor, supposedly about the ashes and smoke, regarding a dragon taking flight. A dragon under Winterfell. Could this have something to do with the source of the hot waters and springs in and under the castle? In any case, he is reborn amidst salt and smoke; Ironmen (this was also used in Bran's prophetic vision, drowning in the salt water) and renegade northmen have destroyed Winterfell.

Aegon cannot be true if Tyrion is a Targaryen. There is enough evidence for that scenario in my mind, and enough for Aegon to be false, ie mummer's dragon among others (Dunk and Egg), that I think we can discount Aegon being a Targaryen. The dragon always has three heads. Jon, Dany, Tyrion. Being a Blackfyre would be interesting. If the Targaryens were extinguished, wouldn't that still make him the "true" heir to the throne, according to the oldest houses who derive their power from the Targaryens? Dany is not immortal and GRRM has a great predilection for chaos, blood, and twists. But really what I think is that Dorne will declare for Aegon and they will war with what remains of the military of the Kingdom on the Iron Throne. They will fight each other to a bloody, attritional standstill while Winter falls and the Others begin their march south from the shattered Wall and Jon Connington turns to stone, and the religious orders divide and destroy the realm from within.

GRRM has the last books written and will parcel them out; until at his deathbed, he will release the final chapter in which every character dies, and new, unrelated stories begin.

As I've said earlier in the thread I am in the Aegon is a Blackfyre camp, which by extension could imply that Varys is a Blackfyre rather than a Targaryen as you have suggest earlier in the thread. I have my doubts that Illyrio and Varys' end game focuses around Dany; it would have required some incredible foresight regarding Viserys' death and Dany's rise to power, and even if they were originally planning on using Viserys as a puppet figurehead the appearance of Aegon changes (for us) what appears to be the focus of their end game. Although if Varys is a powerful magic user of some variety (and your points on this have made me think in this direction) maybe he did know. Certainly destabilisation of the realm was their long term goal, from the conversation Arya overhead in GoT, although whether it may be in aid of the Others (speculation) or simply creating the right conditions for their own chance to take over remains to be seen.

Also a fan of Tyrion being a Targaryen.
