Featuring @GreyWasteTim ! Time to go into the mind of the wolf! The wolf dreams that the Starks have are amusing, poignant, psychedelic, and of course laden with symbolism and foreshadowing. Tim and I will read and analyze Bran's wolf dreams here in part one, and then I'll cover Arya and Jon's in part two!

Be careful your not having discussion with other people points of view because while being very to almost exactly the same when one has a thought pulled from within its purely of them & gives you that inner discovery of what is.But to add onto the perspective of another sometimes comes to easy so it lacks that chore foundation where ideas are formulated and that experience is everything a book club discussion is for to help draw such inner thoughts and concept from the depth of your mind.I hope this helps you

A couple realizations: 1. Coldhands is a Stark. Executing deserters is a Stark job: Ned, Arya, Coldhands. 2. Coldhands is the First Ranger. Not just the leader of the Rangers; literally no ranger has come before him. He invented the archetype. We have another parallel to him in Benjen Stark: a First Ranger Stark who disappeared into the Haunted Forest.

In Finnegan's Wake (where the name Riverrun comes from), there is a reference to a tilted 'Tullagrove Pole' which is meant to imply the world tree off it's axis. It's a further call back to a work by Cicero on the cosmic spheres. One Finnegan companion work connects some dots: "Tully is the anglicized name for Marcus Tullius Cicero". Interestingly, Fisher king is also referenced in several places throughout Finnegan's Wake in the context of hanged god's. Odin reference?

@DavidLightbringer 10 ай бұрын

there's no question Martin has read it. Have you watched the Livestream called "We Should Start Back"? it's a forwards / backwards reading of the AGOT prologue and it seems to tell the whole story in a way. I hadn't heard about the Tullagrove pole but that makes it a good fit for the Weirwood symbolism. All the fish stuff the Tully's do is related to the green sea / Greenseer metaphor, so it makes sense that they're named after a world tree from Finnegan's Wake. great find

My theory is that ghost can’t talk because Bloodraven hodored him. But more realistically not having a voice can be a metaphor for unspoken truths as well as a lack of agency. So his lack of a voice may be connected to the secret of Jon’s parentage. Maybe even referring to the fact that it’s a secret that we may discover but may never become revealed to the characters of the story if Ghost were to never find its voice so to speak.

random thing I learned in my first year in Japan: Quaithe IS wearing a weirwood mask. It is described as a red, wooden lacquer mask. I happened to see an urushi craftsman at work, from harvesting the tree sap, to layering it on a beautiful piece of wood from a fallen limb from a sacred Tsugi tree. Quaithe's mask has red laquer. That doesn't just imply weirwood sap. IT IS weirwood sap. Please look up urushi lacquer craft and you will lose all doubt. She is a wandering heart tree (at least symbolically) She wears an actual heart tree face, covered in red weirwood blood. Good to see you are doing well, David.

"... a carrack called the Santa Maria was sailing across the Atlantic Ocean, accompanied by two smaller caravels. On board was the explorer Christopher Columbus. The Aztecs knew no more about those three ships than the enormous Pterodactyl Quetzalcoatlus knew about the asteroid that had once sped steadily toward the Gulf of Mexico. But as a light once again appeared in the sky over Central America, that blazing, blood-red comet, a new threat just as deadly was speeding their way, one that would take them completely by surprise and change their world forever."

Apologies if this was already mentioned during a Dunk and Egg stream: Grey Waste’s comment about John & Hodor being Bran’s legs pinged that moment where Egg’s father snarks about the realm needing Dunk’s foot-as his descendant, Hodor’s figuratively one of Dunk’s feet (or hands, if you wanna get weirwood-y, since Dunk’d be a root of the family line).

We get a lot of foreshadowing in these wolf dreams for the stone kings in the crypts. Some people like to theorise that they will literally get up and move around at the end of the story, what if that is too literal of an interpretation of the foreshadowing? Maybe what we will see is dead Stark greenseers called back from the crypts to aid Bran in some final spiritual battle against the Others in the astral realm?

Bran describes Shaggydog as, “moving through the trees almost as quietly as another brother he remembered. The one with the white fur and eyes of blood.” This other brother is obviously ghost, but it’s interesting that George uses the same language when talking about the others moving silently through the woods as he does for Ghost moving through the woods. The others are described as ghosts multiple times but I think it’s more likely that George is using this language so we associate Jon and Ghost with the others.

Draught is a variant spelling of draft and is normally pronounced the same way, as [draft] or [drahft] or with a vowel somewhere between [a] and [ah]. A pronunciation [drawt] is sometimes heard for draught, perhaps because -aught is frequently pronounced [-awt] elsewhere, as in caught and taught.

It's not exactly a wolf dream but in GoT, Sansa III, after fighting with Arya about ruining her dress. The Sansa in a fit of anger rips off all her ruined clothes and cries herself to sleep. She then dreams of Lady and they are running together even though Lady is already dead. This is while Robert is out hunting. The very next chapter Littlefinger tells Ned some wolves got to the white hart before Robert's hunting party and there was barely anything left. Most of the party returned but the king went on in search of a boar. So Sansa can warg too. I just think its much harder that she doesn't have Lady to practice.

Jojen's line about "... controlling every beast that flies, crawls, or swims" could be taken as confirmation of not only Farwynd skin changing but also Greyjoy skin changing, i.e. Euron and Theon. The most significant implication of the suggestion that the Farwynds have skin changer magic is that it establishes precedent for Ironborne skin changers. And as the Greyjoys are the only Ironborne house central to the plot, it stands to reason that if we see any Ironborne skin changing it will be Greyjoys doing it. And Euron and Theon are the strongest candidates in my view. Euron is already established as a proficient magic user. And Theon is in the midst of forming a firm connection to the old gods.

@DavidLightbringer 10 ай бұрын

you raise a good point. Theon never had an animal to develop a bond with, but he's hearing the weirwood. And Euron as a failed Bloodraven pupil, that's a very old and clearly plausible theory.

About Hodor and Bran getting inside his head without his consent, I wonder if we'll ever see Hodor get angry with Bran over this and frighten him to the point Summer will feel the need to protect Bran from him, maybe hurting Hodor in the process. That could also make Bran realise he should not warg people. Then he stops doing it until the hold the door incident where he'd have no choice.

She's been around and old for a very long time. She got knocked down the stone stairs at an old age by Theon and bounced back with no serious injuries or disabilities. Her body was never found after the sacking of Winterfell. There's other clues as well, including the CotF admitting they've been infiltrating the realms of men and watching the Brann Starks specifically.

Not wolf dream related but I had to chime in on the Dany endgame stuff. I didn’t enjoy D&D’s take on her at the end and I believe she will be a savior who dies sacrificing herself in some way, but I also think grrm has laid a bit of groundwork for her to do something drastic and out of character. Or at least he wants us to think it’s a real possibility. Could very easily see one of her most important moments in the future taking place in someone else’s pov chapter and George hoping to have readers as unsure of Dany as the pov character. Targaryen madness is a thing but so are Targs having moments of complete shifts in attitude and desires. Always an explanation but seems random to outside observers.
