@theweirdinggay@RaspberryFngers People kill themselves for reasons that make no sense to others all the time. "They had so much to live for". This why I think GRRM's toxic butterfly post was so ham-fisted and ill-judged.
@theweirdinggay I think 8 episodes is fine. My biggest concern is that the story somewhat lacks spectacle after Dragonstone. Something for Ryan Condal to take into account as he won't want a badly received finale.
@Targ_Loyalist I can't help but wonder if she cannot die... is she immune to dragon fire ? If not, will she desire a release from life by dragon fire ?
@Macavit25431185 Also Ulf is on his own now. He has done his sleeping through the battle bit, but he can't now go drinking with a Green commander. So all that is left is for him to be assassinated by poison in a random tavern. Maybe even in S4 ep1 to tie up his loose end.
@Macavit25431185 I am confident as well. My only worry is whether they can give the final episode enough spectacle for the audience. That is a problem for Ryan Condal to resolve - he must have considered moving the dragonstone end game to episode 8.
@meleysjj@Targ_Loyalist Yes, because it is totally possible to believe that dragons are magical creatures which can breath fire but impossible to believe they can go into a magical stasis to heal non-catastrophic injuries. Lol.
@WeThrones I am not reading asoiaf until GRRM finishes the story. ie probably never. This means my only "canon" is the TV shows GOT and HOTD ( and I suppose AKOTSK which barely interests me). And I am very happy with that.
