Exactly what I was giggling about to myself. FarPoint Jun 2016 #230

There are Dornish ships in that fleet as well DemonGoddess Jun 2016 #189

Why would the Dornish fleet sail all the way to Mireen just to sail back to Westeros? Yavin4 Jun 2016 #200

Maybe to help get all the Dothraki over WolverineDG Jun 2016 #207

When we see the fleet at the end DemonGoddess Jun 2016 #221

Yes possibly. Details are left to be discovered. Kablooie Jun 2016 #211

I'm no expect on Medieval rites of ascension NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #217

There you go. Dany is likely to have an unwanted comeuppance before the end of the show. Kablooie Jun 2016 #222

well, it also depends NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #223

Thinking as a writer it makes a much more interesting and dramatic situation if Jon is legitimate. Kablooie Jun 2016 #225

Could have definitely used dragons in the Battle of the Bastards. nt BainsBane Jun 2016 #233

The rite of ascension in Westeros is very simple: might makes rite. n/t PoliticAverse Jun 2016 #226

Why isn't Jon blonde then? BainsBane Jun 2016 #232

On the show NewJeffCT Jun 2016 #234

I know that about genetics BainsBane Jun 2016 #250

Question. Was she stabbed in that scene or was it a bad birth complication? Hassin Bin Sober Jun 2016 #210
