![]() What will happen if he learns of Jon Snow’s parentage? Will he still think Dany is the best choice for the realm? Reddit user John-on-gliding doesn’t think so, noting that Jon is a leader, a peacekeeper, and perhaps most crucially, “free of Dany Targaryen’s fiery temper, her foreign army, and her two destructive dragons.” Varys could definitely pull off such a betrayal-he’s got the guts (or shifting morals, whatever works for you) and the know-how. I'll give 5/10 each for Dany and Jon, 10/10 meows for Ser Pounce.YouTube Icon YouTube Icon Varys betrays Daenerys when he discovers Jon's true parentage.Įarly in season 7, Varys says that he serves the best interest of the people, and that as it stands, the people have no better choice than Daenerys. This is all only if Ser Pounce isn't found, of course. I know it's obvious, but like R+L=J, sometimes the most obvious theory turns out to be true. My money is on Dany or Jon, or both of them. Jenna: Azor Ahai is a thing in both the show and the books, so I feel like it's got to be confirmed at some point that SOMEONE is the prince that was promised. ![]() ![]() My choice is Jaime, since I could see Lightbringer coming from him killing Cersei under the red star in the throne room. I don’t think Melisandre is suddenly going to be right this time around, since she’s blinded by her faith. Jon Snow is the obvious choice, (we did get that lingering shot of a “bleeding star” at his birth), but he’s a little too obvious. A number of people are suspected to be candidates for the second coming for Azor Ahai, including Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, Gendry, Davos Seaworth, Danaerys Targaryen, Jorah Mormont, and even Ser Pounce.Īndy: This is definitely happening, it's just a question of who it'll be. The theory: At some point, the hero Azor Ahai will be reborn “amidst smoke and salt” and wielding the flaming sword Lightbringer to defend the world from the “Other.” This may include plunging a sword into the heart of a loved one, to parallel the original legend. I'm hoping they're just delaying the inevitable, rather than going down an entirely different path. I'm not 100% convinced the show will go there, though - the fact Jaime STILL seems to be standing by Cersei's side, even after she's unleashed wildfire on King's Landing, makes me worry. He is Cersei's younger brother, and it would be the ultimate emotion-packed climax to their story. Jenna: OK, I do not think Jaime is Azor Ahai, but I DO think he is the Valonqar. Also, I’m one of those nuts who thinks that Jaime is Azor Ahai, so I’m putting all my eggs in this basket. This would really bring things full circle for Jaime in his Kingslayer role. Tyrion being the one to kill Cersei is too obvious, and it feels a little messy to interpret Valonqar to mean the younger sibling in any other family (i.e. Since Jaime was born just slightly after Cersei, he’s technically younger.Īndy: I’m fully on board with this. The theory: When she was a young girl, Cersei Lannister received a prophecy that she would die at the hands of the “Valonqar,” which translates roughly to “younger brother” (or perhaps just “younger sibling”) in High Valyrian. Bran's got to become the hero at some point, right? 3/10 Plus it would weaken the impact of Hodor's plot, and suggest Bran didn't learn anything from that horrific incident. I don't think Aerys needed any help from Bran to get there. ![]() The fact that he wanted to be reborn as a dragon from the flames of wildfire is the extreme version of Dany's thinking and actions. Jenna: I think Aerys' madness had more to do with the Targaryen inbreeding. I’m just wondering why it would need to happen, unless it’s going to be part of a series of Bran continuously fucking up the past. The Hodor moment played so amazingly well, and we saw young Ned Stark turn around, so this could happen. The theory: During his viewings of the past, Bran will call out to Aerys II, causing him to hear whispers and eventually go mad.Īndy: I don’t think that Game of Thrones is going to continue to do a lot of wibbley-wobbley timey-wimey stuff, but I do think this has been set up. ![]()
