GAME OF THRONES #6 :-BEYOND THE WALL--Season 7 EPISODE #66

he turns the flying ravens with a glance so hes got multiple powers

I just rewatched the scene. No gold goes over his nose or mouth (or even his eyes), and it's pretty obvious he's screaming from the pain of the intense heat. It probably melts his skull and cooks his brain or something. Anyway, I'm pretty sure Dany's fire immunity is meant to be unique to her. I don't know that any other Targaryens were known to be immune to fire. Also, I think in the books it was just a one-time thing, not a permanent immunity, but I'm not sure..

I thought the killing of Viserion was a statement that Only the Rightful Tragaryan heir has the Fire Immunity required to hatch a dragons egg, Viserion wanted a gold crown but wasn't worthy, Dany who was previously discounted proved her worthiness.

do the books say anything about the first Targaryan and the first Mother of Dragons? May only one gets to hatch an egg, but the others get to ride them due to common blood

Of copurse that means that if Jon isn't fireproof he isn't the true Dragon Heir either

Yes, there's that as well. He seems to be able to interfere with Bran's warging. I wonder if his ability to do that is tied in with the fact that he marked Bran or not.

This is what GRRM had to say about it back in 1999: "TARGARYENS ARE NOT IMMUNE TO FIRE! The birth of Dany's dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived. But her brother sure as hell wasn't immune to that molten gold."

While Dany is clearly permanently immune to fire (and hot water) on the show, it would still appear to be a thing that's unique to her, rather than to Targaryens.

Oh, and of course the Night King just happened to have some ice javelins on hand ... as if he was expecting dragons to show up. (Or was he going to chuck them at Bran's ravens the next time they fly past?)

They looked like lances rather than javelins, which would make sense as a choice of weapon for a horse rider. The fact that they could be thrown effectively is the fortuitous coincidence.

Javelin, lance, spear ... whatever. I still think he came prepared for dragons.

 

[smbakeresq]

It becomes way more believable if they just switch out every mentioning of "sending a raven" with "making a cellphone call".

Seriously, this sets the new gold standard for teleporting in GoT. The season so far was heavy of it, but Gendry's world-record breaking run to the wall, the supersonic flight of the raven from Eastwatch to Dragonstone, the supersonic flight of the dragons from Dragonstone to the lake beyond the wall - just wow

I wonder where they happened to find about 1500m (at least) of marine industrial chain with hook links to drag the dragon out of the lake.

Home depot? Duh

 

[wicked cool]

night king must have knowledge of future events and that's why he has spears along with the chains. the whole event including the wall last night seems well planned (opposite power of Brans).

 

[smbakeresq]

Yeah they do have everything there. The Night King will probably return the chains for a refund even though they are used. He looks like the type that would do that.

How would he make it? That sort of stuff wouldn't just be lying around.
