  • In today's video I do a quick breakdown of the Night King's message, how it reveals his target, and how it relates to the Prince That Was Promised, the Wheel, and the philosophical question of waging was as a means to achieve peace.

    He followed Bran all the way to that cave though....seems like he's after Bran

    • @ShanghaiRooster
      @ShanghaiRooster 5 років тому +4

      No, he was after the three-eyed raven, who is the one to provide the information that can stop him. Bloodraven knew that, and also knew it was only a matter of time before the Night King found a way to enter his cave, hence his search for someone to succeed him who wasn't bound to the tree in that cave.

    I like your videos because they think through them like I do when I have the time to do so on a subject I really love. Not all your predictions were true but all your thinking has meaning and I think that is what is most valuable on your videos, as the search for meaning is inherently the most human and important thing we produce as a species.

  • @JosephSchneider26
    @JosephSchneider26 5 років тому +3

    Let me just say that I would have disagreed even if I hadn't known the ending:
    We know that long before Dany and Jon meet up the NK has risen, even long before the dragons are born. I know that this child-murder would fit into your mirror-narrative about the NK very well, but I think if we assume that Rhaegar was actually the prince who was promised and Jon, a child deprived of his mother, was Lightbringer (the sword in the darkness), it's also very fitting to assume that his birth let the Others rise again. Or, on a greater scale: the whole civil war was. How many children have been killed by someone who wants to secure his or her power?
    So... what if there is only one true god - the god of death, who both made the Others rise again and guided Bran?
    PS: Btw I love your approach. It is as intelligent as GRRMs story deserves it.

    You have amazing unique points of views and interpretations. I however am not sure Jon was represented by spiral patterns during battle of bastards. It was kinda important in your argument. I tend to agree with your final conclusion. PtP is probably their child.

  • @PeterPhillipsVaycent
    @PeterPhillipsVaycent 5 років тому +1

    I definitely think in the books this might be much more accurate. It seems like good analysis, despite the direction the show ended up taking the series.

  • @thisisboxingproductions6894
    @thisisboxingproductions6894 5 років тому

    Plot Twist: Prince/ss that was promised is Cercei's child. That is why we can't see night king at the end of episode 2, he is off to King's Landing :)

  • @ShanghaiRooster
    @ShanghaiRooster 5 років тому +1

    Good explanation. Dany is still the target though. Without her, the prince who was promised can not be born. The Ghost of High Heart said he would be born of the line of Aerys and Rhaella, and Dany is the only one directly of that line (Jon is only indirectly of the line).
    The Night King is Mirri Maz Duur, basically (not the same person, obviously!)

    • @carriezen8499
      @carriezen8499 5 років тому

      Jon is the son of Rhaegar so he therefore still considered to be from A & R line paternally. Dany is of course. Their child is also therefore descended from A & R line. Martin has used Jon (nephew) - Dany (aunt) much in the same way as King Arthur (half-brother) - Morgaine (half-sister) being brought back together to mate during Beltane without knowing they are related after being separated in early childhood.
