  1. If the Mad King took Joanna's virginity (plausible) he couldn't have gotten her pregnant with Tyrion. Cersei & Jamie are older than Tyrion. Tyrion is the 3rd child from Joanna and caused her death, you can't have another kid if you're dead so… Cersei/Jamie came first. The twins incestuous relationship would make a lot more sense because Targaryens have a history of that. It's much easier to sell the theory that Jame & Cersei are Aery's bastards than Tyrion. Unless I'm completely missing something?

  2. I believe it is possible for Jamie Lanister to be Azor Ahai. The Spider talks about when the mountain Killed Obrians sister and killed her children a daughter and Son. The spider said he switched the son i believe it could in turn be Jamie the prince who was promised. Hear me out. Jamie is the greatest sword fighter in the realm, This season he will receive Widows Wail the sword forge from Ice. I believe Jamie will turn on Cersi after she find out of the White walkers and wants to use them to destroy her enemies Jamie will be baffled. Cersi will then tell him she is going to marry Euron Greyjoy. Jamie will stab her in the back like the mad king the sword will be forged in Lions blood aka House Lanester and she is his lover. A bleeding star Obrian's house sidule is a Sun when he was killed he bled. Jamie is one of the most humble men left and always tries to use reason. tThough he has not always chose the light he has come a long way loosing his hand humbled him (almost as a reborn like the bath scene with breann) and one of the last scene he bicker with Frey about honor. I thought about the scene where Joffery made fun of Jamie about his history in the books and about his one hand. Jamie has blond hair but jon is star and has black so… I believe Jamie would be a great twist he has come a long way from the beginning but I could be wrong and Dont get me wrong Jon Snow is the man and Danny is a beast. Just so you know The red lady Melasandra is heading south where Jamie is, if Jamie is the lost son of Raygar he would have more claim to the throne than jon and danny. I do want to go back to the dance of dragons cause i believe there is something im missing about the dragon riders but If im right that would be a great twist. Let me know what you think… (sorry if i butcher names lol)

  3. Well guys, I have my own interpretation of who Azor Ahai is. Actually,
    no one is Azor Ahai and Azor Ahai wont be 'reborn'. Read this closely.
    For me, Azor Ahai means the chosen one who will unite the world against
    the Others. Which means, I dont see Azor Ahai as a reborn man, but a
    title bestowed to a great hero. And that hero could very well be Stannis
    Baratheon. Its no wonder why George put him in the north.

    Stannis Baratheon is a man of duty. He knows and he cares. His character
    changes completely after Blackwater bay. As stated in the books, ' I
    was trying to win the throne to save the kingdom, when I should have
    been trying to save the kingdom to win the throne.'
    After BW'bay, he realized the importance of the doom that is the Others.
    He went straight to the north and saved the night's watch for the time
    being.

    Now lets see about what Melisandre saw there and lets interpret it. "I
    pray for a glimpse of Azor Ahai, and R'hllor shows me only snow". in my
    eyes and understanding, this hasn't got anything to do with Azor Ahai.
    Why ? It became pretty obvious to me what R'hllor wants to show/tell
    Melisandre. And that my friends is the Others and the doom that they
    bring with them ! The title of the next book is Winds of Winter ( I see
    it as if the Others will come further south and a great war will begin
    ). George said that in the next book, he will take us even further
    north, which means that many things could happen about uncovering
    secrets and other stuff.
    But lets try to understand it like this; why would R'hllor show
    Melisandre "only snow". Is it because of Jon Snow OR is he actually
    trying to warn her about the Others and the impending doom ?

    And back to Azor Ahai. This is not biased but as far as I can tell,
    Stannis is the only one at the moment with probably the best experience
    and skill on how to fight an enemy.
    Jon and Dany are both 16 years old in the books now and while they have
    experience, I wouldn't compare them to Stannis. And the kingdom needs
    now more than ever, a leader who will unite them and will lead them in
    the war to come and Stannis might be the perfect man for the job. I dont
    see 'Azor Ahai' as I person, but more of a title and ill be glad to see
    Stannis leading the living against the dead in this time ( A song of
    Ice and Fire ).

    2:12 Wrong. Daenerys was born among salt on a fleet. Then reborn on the pyre among smoke.

    My theory on Melisandre is that she is in part telling the truth. She doesn't know any better. Her lord is leading her the way he is to get her to Jon, but she herself was not aware of it.
