  1. "It is our believe, that conspiracy A was caused by conspiracy B, which according to our believe was through conspiracy C which to our believe was connected to conspiracy D that proves to our believe conspiracy E. To prove that, we talk about conspiracy F, that is to our believe the prove of every conspiracy that ever existed. Because circular arguments are awesome! We dont need any evidence whatsoever as long as we can include every conclusion in another premise! Dont worry if you left this video with thousands questions marks over your head. That just means we are SO much smarter than you are. So better trust us! Why? Because it is our believe…"

  3. I think the hightowers were trying to find a link to North of the wall..bear island great start for that plan.a cute hightower lass jorah de andal just couldnt resist..bri gs the families together and the hightowers have family bond allies with a far north family..they need information from beyond the wall

  5. Anyone know when Shiera Seastar died?? i just wanna say that she was born somewhere between 178 and 184 AC so say she could bare a child until the age of 40. Then according to you Varys is somewhat upwards to 80 years old ….i'm sorry but months is not what gets in the way of this theory…years do….

  6. @ The Order of the Green Hand …is there a chance that varys is a child of Jaehaerys II… we don't exactly know how old Varys is but my guess is in his late 40's early 50's …also he is (willingly??) bald.
    Also Jaehaerys II died (mystyriously) complaining about a shortness of breath(could be some sort of poison) (maybe a Tyrell , see Luthor Tyrell / or maybe Celia Tully (who knows why women hold a grudge…and i say women because poison is a woman's weapon))
    so after Jaehaerys' II mysterious death perhaps someone thought it be best if he hid his son(Varys) across the Narrow Sea.
    which is what Varys says that he did later on for Aegon (Young Griff) who according to you is "TOJ AEGON" so basically he did not do it… but the best lie is the closest thing to the truth and it might be something that was done to him and he is using it with aegon…
    i would really like to hear how far off you think i am (on a scale of 1-10)…i know i am a bit crazy but with ASOIAF aren't we all??

  12. I'm so ready for new book. It's hard to believe that the last book ended with Jon's death!! Do u think Tyrion isa Targaryen? I do. I need to read the parts about Barbry Dustin again. And who was blowing horns outside WINTETFELL? I'm confused. Maybe if I read it again I can guess better. I've read all the books a few times. Now I'm going back and reading certain parts. What r your thoughts??

  14. Varys pretends to be other people.
    So I don’t believe his back story.
    I think he is a Blackfire and a woman.
    I also think he is Illyrio Mopatis’s supposedly dead wife.
    That is why Varys flirts with the male characters.
    If Varys isn’t a Blackfire, she is related to Agon somehow.

  21. Your part about them being soldiers, and knowing to take the high ground, "Ser Arthur Dayne could take fifty soldiers in the narrow confines of a staircase alone", is a fallacy and you should have trusted Ser Arthur Dayne's instinct, as a soldier, in not confining himself to a "narrow staircase". Ser Arthur Dayne wields, "Dawn", a two-handed great sword, which would me made worthless if used in the scenario you suggest.

    The Tower of Joy is not at the head of one, of the two, trails that lead into Dorne, but, is located between both roads. One would have to go out of their way to make it to the Tower of Joy.

    Why would Lyanna be hidden in Dorne, where Rhaegar's closest friend, Ser Arthur Dayne, was from? As your own reply intimates, "It makes no sense", is proof positive evidence this would be a magnificent spot to keep her hidden. "The closer we are to danger, the farther we are from harm."

  24. I've only recently came across this wonderful channel. After watching a couple different playlist I'm now working thru the "recommended order playlist" so forgive me if you've address this question elsewhere..
    Seeing as how we've now see the tower of joy thru Bran, do you guys still think see Arthur Dane is alive and is mance?

  27. Perhaps the three kingsguard drew their swords under orders from Rheagar to protect the next king of westeros?

    Also, you say you are bringing clarity to the story, but you are actually just creating ALOT more questions, that is not a bad thing, just an odd thing to say I think.

  29. i wish i could transfer all of your knowledge into my brain! you guys do such an outstanding job with your videos. the information you share is worth reading a dozen books. I wish you great fortune in the wars to come! 🙂

  30. Wow Arthur Dayne is king beyond the wall, Mance Rayder?  That is… far fetched but not out of the realm of possibilities.  I guess the biggest clue would be, 'I wish you good fortune in the wars to come.' So it is possible that the same man said it in multiple events. It could be a common phrase used by knights.

    Let's back up.  Dayne was probably one of the most honorable knights.  Like Ned, Dayne's word is his bond.  To to say he would just abandon the kingsguard, become a member of the Night's Watch, betray them too just to forge an alliance with wildlings?  Only a king can release a knight from his vow.  Is it possible for Rhaegar to have included Dayne in his prophecy?  Maybe.  Is it enough to forge an elaborate scheme of this magnitude?  Unlikely.

  40. This channel is the an absolute masterpiece of binge channels… I love drinking while listening to your theories and argumentations…. Big thumbs up, you've won a subscriber

    P.S. The best part is that you are refering to the books and not to the shitty show

  42. So are we saying that Lyanna is dead but some kind of Ice Queen waiting for her child. The Night King and white walkers have been bringing her babies in the meantime because she died and never left the North. She is North of the wall sending out her troops the White Walkers to get her son- Jon Snow.
