Official Game of Thrones Series and Book Thread of Fire, Ice, and CURSE YOU MARTIN

I'm pretty sure the North seceded from the Seven Kingdoms and proclaimed Robb their King, making him King of the North. I may be spewing BS though. It's just what I deducted from the whole "*spit on the floor* at their kingship" comments and claiming that Robb be the only King they'll bend the knee for.

And yes, I'm also pretty sure it's 'King of the North'.

He is the king of the north, but in the books and the series, they refer to him as King In The North

[Squirly]

In the series as well. It's King in the North. Seriously, I checked.

Episode 2 wasn't bad - nothing mind-blowing yet except for the end there. So, am I right in assuming that the old fart who marries his daughters is handing off his sons to the wildlings? It was late, I was tired and the end sorta threw me. Am I wrong?

[Kharrak]

Squirly, the Old Fart IS a wildling :P

He's the head of a Wildling villiage.

[Zoop]

I think you're confusing wildlings with whatever those blue-eyed monstrosities are called again. :P

Nope you are wrong. Something much more menacing :D

White Walkers

They're called White walkers.

To be clear, wildlings are basically anyone who lives north of the wall, which is where Snow is busy exploring, pushing further north. So any people they encounter are wildlings.

Was wondering if they'd do this with season 3.

[Squirly]

I think I have to rewatch the whole first season again. Probably should have done that before the second season started but that's just something I'll have to get done during the week now.

Sigh. Rewatching GoT Season 1 is such a chore.....

Without that ";)" I'd have dropped you to the bottom of my "cool list".

Wait, you mean I'm actually on the 'cool list'? This isn't like Top Gear's cool list, is it?

[Zoop]

Wait, we have cool lists now?

I'm in HEAVEN! :D It's high school all over again!

Anyway, I'm going to rewatch S1 sometime. Just need to make time for it.

[Toxxyc]

LOL. Anyway, back to topic - just finished the first episode of Season 2. It's epic. Honestly, it just reset my faith in the series (not that it had much reason to dwindle, just saying). Can't wait to get into episode 2 now! :D

Ah that pirate dude was hilarious, didn't quite catch his name though but potential new favourite character right there

He's called Salador Saan (or Sann, I'm not sure), and yes, he's favorite character material.

[Toxxyc]

Also enjoyed the pirate.

I see not how Robb is keeping his cool with Jamie though, I'd have had the bastard tortured many eons ago. I hate his guts and love his armor. I want his guts out of his armor. And I want the wolf to munch him.

Also noticed that the series is starting to play a lot on morals. Duty vs. honor vs. willpower. Babies being killed or handed to white walkers. Familial bonds and traitory are weighed against each other. Love, hate and backstabbing. This is a joy to watch. More characters, more lovable characters and the hated ones hated more. I genuinely want to see the Baratheon bastard becoming something. He's already smart, loyal and strong, good King material. Let's just hope he doesn't come into trouble with Robb. I do love Robb.

[Xperimance]

Just watched Episode 2 now. Nothing new and exciting but I'm eager to see what happens when Jon gets knocked out and taken hostage by that old guy at the end of the episode.

[pArkEr]

The last episode was fantastic! Loved Arya's scene at the end, it's amazing how they manage to humanise even the most masculine of characters, so I was actually saddened to see Yoran go.

[Zoop]

The Imp's ruse was pretty awesome, although I cottoned on immediately when I noticed him saying different things to the different advisers. I kinda expected it to be the Eunuch, though. Hate that guy.
