It will be interesting to see how they are going to be able to repel the Others after they have all but wiped each other out.My theory is the book is centering around magic coming back into the world: The Others, Dany & the dragons, Bran and other events.GRRM has crafted an excellent set of books that have a lot of threads going through it. So many that I am not sure if a thread is dangling because I have not made a connection or because he just has not gotten back to it.For example: Arya stumbles upon a conversation while climbing around one of the towers- the nature of the conversation was pretty ominous, but those speaking were never identified. What I think it comes down to is I need to take notes next time I read the book. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I would agree Tyrion is probably the hardest character to peg. Even though he is a pov character- trying to understand his motivation is difficult at best. It would not suprise me if he met up with Dany. That would work out well since she is not very tactful. heh. She could use the political edge. Sansa is my other choice for a hard to peg character. Not because of what has happened to her, but how she ends up in the end is a mystery. I could see her being a major villian/hero/side note. She has the Stark strength, but has finally stopped hiding behind the shadows of her little girl dreams to find it.Back onto heroes- iirc, one of Dany's visions is about three people riding the dragons. I suspect these will be the three big heroes of the series.Who will the riders be? Dany is an obvious choice. Jon is another good bet (I also have a side theory that he and Dany are related and will end up married- GRRM hammers the knowledge that the Targaeryen's often married blood.) The third rider is up in the air, but considering his physical limitations- Tyrion may be a good choice.SD</blockquote>
