thing is, its not, bad story telling would be here is a hero (Jon) here is the prophecy (azor Ahai) oh it happened, what a shock, thats bad storytelling, in the very story the prophecy is in they also warn you not to trust in prophecy. in the first book the prophecy of Rhaego (Dany's son the stallion that will mount the world ) was a thing, but it didn't come true did it?. its good story telling because you had so many choices about who azor ahai could be, but is it actually clear what he will do? what is lightbringer? (i think lightbringer is Arya btw, Jon gave her her first weapon) the part about plunging a weapon into his lovers heart wasn't about the weapon but about bringing the dawn itself (killing Dany)

That's the thing, they were just theories and not really in line with the show. More so in line with the books as possibilities. Then again, if a theory is too detailed it is most likely never to come true for fans who hope it might be. I figure by now that people will just give up that the show went a different direction than the books are going a different direction. A no need to compare them anymore. But also that D&D seemed to be real lazy with this season and last (in my opinion) season. They lost their passion and care they once had.

@marleymarss 4 жыл бұрын

@@M7md_n29er Yes, the main story from the show was indeed mostly about Danny and Jon. They were the ones for the most part driving the story forward. But I have to be completely honest, Jon was my least favorite and never understood why so many fans liked him. But hey, that's just me. And yes, all that character development (for 8 years) we have followed these two all these years, feels wasted and all logic out of the window. I can understand Danny's arc from naive young woman to being a villain. It makes sense, but how D&D approached her character journey, the development (transforming) of how she got there, didn't make sense and rushed. Same with Jon's journey as well. I do feel like D&D knew where they were going with the story and knew how they wanted to end the show. It's good to know when show runners know the end to the story and a direction, but even show runners have changed their endings because of the writing process changing and so much more. And based on the writing from S7 and S8, feels like D&D were tired and really wanting to work on different projects. Understandably being a show runner takes a toll on anyone, but there is a thing called passion. D&D didn't seem to feel as passionate than they were in the beginning or excited. Which is why all the characters' endings felt abrupt and many of us are like "What?"

He doesn't link to any characters, he isn't related to any clues, he's just a random character that is convicted at the end of the story. That is how the show felt when it ended.

Rhaegar is Azor Ahai. The way that story paints the picture of him, he would have been the greatest king the realm had ever seen. He was kind and learned, but at the same time, he was fiercely strong. But he died before he ever became king, forever a prince. The Prince who was Promised. And Lightbringer isn't so much a sword but it's still quite the powerful weapon. Lightbringer is Jon. Lightbringer was said to be attempted to be forged twice before it was successfully forged. Just like Rhaenys and Aegon before Jon. Jon was also born of the death of Lyanna, just as Lightbringer was born of the death of Nissa Nissa.

Was just about to mention this too. In the show you see Ned place Arthur Dayne's sword Dawn at the foot of the bed when Jon is being born. The camera also focuses on it for a second, I think to show its importance. They didn't have to show the camera angle of Ned placing it down, but they did. Dawn is also forged from a fallen star, so a sort of "bleeding star" (since the trail would give the impression of it "bleeding"). You could also have Lyanna bleeding after birth, so a quite literal "bleeding".

This scene is in the books and the show, and yes there is a ham in the show. Plus the red star bleeds is not the red comet. That is a comet, not a star. The red star is the sigil of House Martell, and that star bleeding is Oberyn getting killed by the Mountain. Plus darkness gathering is Bran meeting the 3 eyed crow. Yes, Bran is most likely the bad guy (hence why he is always cloaked in darkness in his dreams) and Jaime is the savior of humanity. That's why he's always shining golden.

He also had to sacrifice his love, Ygritte, so he has that too. The only thing he's really missing is the dragon, but as the guy said, the dragon is a bit iffy. It's a connection, not a known sign.

Just as Melisandre "guaranteed" his victory at Blackwater. I don't know if Stannis would have sacrificed Shireen simply to melt the snow and have a _chance_ at victory. Because you have to remember, it's not like it's giving Stannis and advantage while the Boltons remain disadvantaged. The Boltons reap the rewards of the sacrifice also. Now, when fighting against white walkers on the other hand, sure, snow melting and a heat wave would seem to definitely be an advantage to the humans, while being a disadvantage to the white walkers.

@mikeplaysit 8 жыл бұрын

***** Though, in these times, I don't think it would be considered that Stannis had an heir. Well, in the traditional sense, to carry on the Baratheon name. Because when a woman gets married (not always during modern times, I don't know if it's common or even allowed in mideval/fantasy game of thrones times) she takes the last name of the groom and is no longer carries her last name. So she wouldn't be Shireen Baratheon, she would be, let's say, Shireen Stark. So Stannis' name doesn't carry on. Either way, sacrificing any children, whether they have the means to carry on the family legacy or not seems, a bit much.

It would feel a little cheap to me if Dany swooped in to be the saviour, personally.

@princessshei9171 Жыл бұрын

Jon is the red herring here, not Dany. A Game of Thrones starts with The Others and ends with Azor Ahai, Dany and the dragons are the fire that will destroy the ice. She completes the entire Azor Ahai/Lightbringer ritual in the first book before the prophecy is even introduced in A Clash of Kings, which is classic George to give us the answer before asking the question. She is the first and only POV character to witness the comet in the first book, she places Drogon's egg under Drogo's left arm to be nearest to his heart so she pulls Lightbringer from her lovers heart just as Azor Ahai did to Nissa Nissa, she walks into the flames herself and is reborn amidst salt and smoke, she wakes dragons from stone, and her chapters are the only ones to mention "the song of ice and fire". Xaro calls the dragons "a flaming sword above the world" and they are described as "fire made flesh and warm to the touch" just as Lightbringer was a flaming sword that was warm as Nissa Nisaa had been warm. Nissa Nissa’s dying screams as Lightbringer was forged left a crack across the moon, this calls back to Doreah's story of the sun (Drogo) wandering too close to the moon (Dany) and it cracking bringing forth dragons. There's also Dany's "slayer of lies" prophecy where she sees "glowing like sunset, a red sword was raised in the hand of a blue eyed King who cast no shadow". The vision acknowledges Stannis as a king so the only lie left to slay about him is his claim to Azor Ahai. The sword is described as glowing vs burning. When Jon is fighting at the wall he wishes for "a dragon or three", I think his purpose is to forewarn and assist in the Battle for the Dawn vs being the main hero. His entire story is built around him embracing the Stark identity he so craves and he's heavily tied with the magic of the Old Gods rather than the magic of R'hollor. I think he's a head of the dragon but not Azor Ahai. He's the result of Rhaegar doing the one thing you're not supposed to do with prophecy; guess it/induce it unnaturally. Dany, as of the end of the books, still has no idea who Azor Ahai is but she is a perfect subversion of the prophecy.

The more I think about this prophecy the more I believe it is not one single person. Why does it have to be Jon or Dany or Bran. If you look at LOTR yes Frodo was the chosen one to carry the ring but he wouldn't have succeeded without the help of his friends. Dany and her dragons are going to help burn those wights but she is not going to win the final battle without Jon's help who is going to rally the ground forces and Bran too with his immense magical powers will play a huge part. A thought for Hodor he held the fucking door he too was a chosen one, sacrificing his life and sanity for Bran he is just as special as any of them. It is never one person who saves the world ultimately, Bran will be leading the magical forces, Dany the aerial forces with her dragons, and Jon the ground forces with his Valyrian sword and Jon might as well be the last one standing fighting the last WW but it will be a combination effort by everyone.

I personally find the theory that Rhaegar is Azor Ahai and Jon is his sword, the lightbringer, to be far more interesting. That his whole reason for starting the war by running off with Lyanna was to fulfill the prophecy and possibly visions he was having. Knowingly condemning thousands to their deaths all to bring about the man that would save the world. Daenerys fits a lot more of the criteria, but I don't see her path following that of a savior and hero, but more of a mad tyrant like her father. Of course the show portrays this awfully and nonsensically, but Martin has said that D&D were aware of the true ending. I don't think they displayed it even close to properly and most likely changed a lot about it to fit it into a couple episodes, but Daenerys going mad in the end is probably true. Especially when considering how much more brutal and cutthroat she is becoming during her rule. Regardless I just hope that Martin finishes ASOIAF before he dies.

Then, the last chapter is titled "The Prince that was Promised" and will be from Rhaegar's PoV as he rides off to the battle of the trident to be killed by Robert Baratheon (implying that his death then doomed the rest of the world to eternal winter).

djj 125 the hero must have a hero's blade ... like none that had ever been ... plunged into water ... captured a lion ... he knew what he must do ... know that I love you best of all that is in this world ... he thrust the smoking sword through her living heart ... her blood and her soul and her strength and her courage all went into the steel ... What's the fastest route from Slaver's Bay to Westeros? The Smoking Sea. What's in the Smoking Sea? Smoke and salt, of course. What else is in the Smoking Sea? Brightroar, a super badass Valyrian sword that was plunged into the water. Why hasn't it been recovered? Most sailors fear the Smoking Sea and avoid it. Who are the bravest sailors in the world? The Ironborn. Where are they? On their way to pick up Dany and take her back to Westeros. Would Victarion want to prove that he's Euron's equal by sailing the Smoking Sea? You bet. Will Dany be keen to take a shortcut to get there faster when she hears that a fake Targaryen is stealing her birthright? Absolutely. Who did Dany promise to give a super badass Valyrian sword to as soon as she has one? Jorah. Who captured a lion? Jorah. Who loves a woman more deeply and passionately than anyone else in the series? Jorah. Who's going mad and may have to be killed by someone in her inner circle? Daenerys. What character could be killed to give a sword maximum power against the Others? Daenerys. What's the worst thing GRRM could do to Jorah? Make him kill Daenerys. What is now branded into Jorah's face? A demon mask. Brightroar is done being tempered in the water. It will be pulled from the smoke and salt and presented to Demon Jorah. He will kill Daenerys in the most powerful act of blood magic possible. When he removes the sword, it will be covered in fire and blood. He will take the black, as was his father's dying wish. He will be the 1000th Lord Commander. He will drive back the darkness. Demon Jorah is Azor Ahai reborn.

dany was born in dragonstone. An island hence the salt and there is a active volcano, dragonmont, hence the smoke. She had "stone" dragon eggs that came to life in drogo's funeral pyre under the bleeding star which is kind of a rebirth.

Tyrion just freed the Dragons from their bunker (out of stone). He has a lot of salt and I don't have to tell you about his flaming sword (probably syphilis).

The Dragons are Azor Ahai. three heads of the dragons waking from stone under a bleeding red comet, amidst salt and smoke with a flaming sword (dragon fire) that brings light. they are prince/princesses being the children of a queen. and maester aemon said that dragons have no gender which explains the whole prince/princess confusion.and they are the "stallions that mount the world" since daenerys has almost exclusively conquered everyone using her dragons as predicted by the dosh khaleen. and being daenerys' "children" means that the ghost of high heart was right to predict rhaella and aerys grandchildren to be the prince that was promised. they LITERALLY have dragon blood because theyre dragons. they fit literally every criteria for being AA. my guess is that dany will be nissa nissa and will somehow die to save them.

Ooooo that's really interesting, bravo. I'm too uninformed to comment on it (so far I've just seen the show and a bunch of KZfaq videos both official GoT HBO ones and this type, so I still need to read the books) except that it sounds like it fits very well.

Another point to this is that G.R.R.Martin has said that the ending will be bittersweet, perhaps the dragons will end the long night and slay the white walkers, but leave the land burning in their wake. The seven kingdoms are destroyed and the noble houses ruined, and as the dawn rises the survivors look to see the end of the song, with the ice melting and the fire going out leaving only ash.

I love going back to your old videos and listen to them cause it gets me reconsidering some things. A thought I just had that I haven't heard yet, is the ides that Mel may turn around and burn Stannis for King's Blood when she realizes Jon is likely Azor Ahai. And how fitting would that be? The very thing that has driven Stannis to appalling actions and questionable choices is the very thing turns on him and becomes his undoing.

Fan-f#*king-tastic. No beating around the bush. As straight forward as you can get. There are still some holes, but as you said, there are still 2 books left. I like that you don't try to explain how it will end but just give us what has been written. I have enjoyed your other videos but this is the one that got me to subscribe. Will you be addessing the "house with the red door?" I don't see alot of people talking about this. It is hard to believe that this place or memory is from Bravos, because of the whole lemon tree debate. I would love to hear what you might have to say about this. Looking forward to more videos. And again great work.
