Gosh, I Really Empathize With Jeyne Westerling. Lady-> Queen-> Lady. You Had To Deal With The Immediate

Gosh, I really empathize with Jeyne Westerling. Lady-> Queen-> Lady. You had to deal with the immediate expectation of PREGANCY and CHILDREN then your new war boyfriend gets brutally murdered by a conspiracy involving your mom.

Like. That’s rough girl, you aren’t old enough for this shit.

Blackwater by Amok

Could the fall of the wall be a little more… wet?

The wall in asoiaf is made of ice. When it’s hot it is described as “weeping” with melted parts flowing down the ice. Is it possible that when (if) the wall falls in story instead of being like a brick wall caving in it could be more like a Great Flood?

After all the easiest way to make all that ice go away is to let it run away on its own i.e. turn it into a giant wave! “Waking giants from the earth” could be earthquake but think back to the hammer of the waters or the creation of the neck. Both involved enormous amounts of water flooding after an earthquake. Maybe the fall of the wall could be the same, except being a land based tsunami post earthquake. (Meta narratively drawing upon the Great Flood myth GRRM might’ve learned about as a Catholic child)

Then the Others will surf all the way down to the God’s Eye and marry Jon snow at Harrenhal!

or something
