Screw the Targaryens....what do we need to do to get Brynden Tully on the throne? Blackfish FTMFW.
About the only great House I don't actively dislike (or hasn't been wiped out) at this point is the Tyrells. Let's take a step back for a minute and look at our protagonists - The Starks. Look at history and ask yourself what we have here; you know they're pretty much just warring tribesman, right? Like, Icelandic Vikings. They have no business ruling a Continent. The Arryns are largely career second fiddles. Baratheon doesn't exist anymore as there are no male heirs (and maybe Shireen will also die in the books). Bolton and Frey...yeah. The Greyjoys are essentially mad Scotsmen, are they not? Dorne is literally a different country.
Isn't Willas seen as largely good people? Why shouldn't I be rooting for The Tyrell's to win this thing somehow and for Willas to take over? Because I can't bring myself to root for the emo zombie or the entitled tween with the genocidal family background and a refusal to acknowledge the scoreboard. [Reply]

God i hope Margaery doesn't become a Sparrow. I have this sickening feeling that she's going to be converted though. Im sure her character will meet a tragic demise of some sort. [Reply]

Yup, the Isles was my first thought as well. All the wet, dreary country and the reaving along misc. ports.
Seemed straight out of the Scottish Highlands.
Sorry Listo, but I'm gonna say that disqualifies them from ruling, all due respect to your ancestors of course... [Reply]

One of the things I love about this series is that there is no "good guy". Have you heard of the Grand Tyrell Conspiracy? [Reply]
