The third installment of our TWoW Primer is all about the Riverlands and the PoV characters we’ll see there– Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth. We recap where their AFfC/ADwD arcs left them and explore what might be happening with them in TWoW. We also discuss predictions for the prologue chapter, what role Lady Stoneheart will play in the novel, and much more!

Our series recapping all the arcs, threads, and theories of what will be happening in the beginning of TWoW continues with a look at some characters we expect to be making Journeys in TWoW. We begin with Bran, north of the Wall, then visit Arya in Braavos and Sansa in the Vale, and conclude with Davos and Rickon. Along the way we address who is Coldhands, why Arya will need yet another new identity early in TWoW, a tourney in the Vale, and why fans are convinced Davos and Rickon are on Skagos. All this and more, as we refresh our view of what’s going on with the Stark siblings.

Looking at Arya Stark in The Winds of Winter, yolkboy and Lady Gwyn analyse Arya in her new role with Izembaro. The recent gift chapter reveals themes of sexuality, identity and (as the chapter title indicates) mercy. Using specially arranged readings to present key sections, we discuss Arya’s identity, the role she plays in “The Bloody Hand” and why we think Needle makes an appearance late in the chapter. We also offer our unique speculation about Arya’s future and a new role her Faceless Men training could be preparing her for.
