Tbh I'd barely noticed the dude until this latest ep.

Same here - couldn't have put the face with the name before now.

What are the rules of the Lord of Light/re-animator stuff? These people are, like, DEAD dead, right? We're not looking at any Starkzombies in Season 4, are we?

Also, trying to work out at what point Lord Bolton was supposed to have been tapped up by the Lannisters. Sometime around that scene when he released Jaime and Brienne?

why did nobody mention this kinda weird act? like robb practically disowned his own mother for releasing jaime and then when baldy did it he was just what, too busy to care?

I don't think Robb even knew about it.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 10:26 (ten years ago) link

I guess he never found out Jaime was recaptured. Though he would have done from that bearded guy who severed the hand.

the bearded guy is one of roose's men

it does seem weird that not a soul would have told robb, or that we didn't even have a scene of roose telling people to be quiet on it.

well, someone would have had to send a raven, so maybe they're v strictly controlled? or all dead like in winterfell.

Robb didn't appear to know that his sister had been married off to a Lannister either. He wasn't really that up on several things.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:08 (ten years ago) link

no twitter

max, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:08 (ten years ago) link

maybe the ravens were down

... (LocalGarda), Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:09 (ten years ago) link

just like twitter last night, same shit different ravens imo

... (LocalGarda), Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:09 (ten years ago) link

you can't get the ravens these days!

... (LocalGarda), Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:09 (ten years ago) link

a few months ago on reddit there was some "i am a historian, ask me anything!" thread and loads of people were like "how did they get ravens to carry messages in the middle ages???" because apparently GoT is a documentary

A modern communications strategy is useless without both ravens *and* a network of brothels.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:17 (ten years ago) link

pigeon messengers go back to the middle ages in this realm but ravens are just classier eh

nashwan, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:22 (ten years ago) link

pigeons, being inherently magical creates, were wiped out by the doom of valyria

Roberto Spiralli, Tuesday, 4 June 2013 11:29 (ten years ago) link

anyway, yes, i can imagine it wasn't entirely clear but everyone involved in the jamie/briene stuff were roose's men and they were apart from the rest of the northern folks. i think you were supposed to infer that this was going on without robb or anyone else's knowledge from the lack of conversation/shitstorm about it. and as for robb and crew finding out about sansa's wedding, i imagine there is no one left in the capital with sufficient sympathy and resources to get a message to them in the required time.

Harper Voyager (Martin's publishers) have uploaded the Red Wedding chapter to share. In case anyone is interested: http://cdn1.vnetrix.com/A.Storm.of.Swords-Catelyn.pdf
