Sounds pretty ridiculous. first men and the children fought a war children lost the war children create walkers as a weapon of last resort walkers overwhelm the children AND first men, and they form an alliance to defeat them apparently at least one of them (night king) survived north of the wall, and slowly regenerated his walker army with the babies of wildlings --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

i'm not sure exactly how often the war of man vs children is mentioned on the show but the books drill it in only the show explicitly reveals the children created the walkers the legend of the long night mentions man and children fighting the walkers off --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

(and the only reason Gendry can possibly still exist as a character) They're setting it up pretty poorly, then. Not even attempting to display his skill as a blacksmith. And if they go the direction you're saying, they'll have to be even more gratuitous with the amount of time it takes to do stuff.

However, he cannot pass the wall, as he's blocked by the same magic that the walkers and wights are. He wasn't sure why he was still alive, and probably saw rescuing Jon as his reason for living.

i forgot to bitch about this before
but if benjen died there that was the shittiest death ever and speaking of shitty deaths where the hell were the redshirts coming from? it's westeros seven anytime there is character interaction but if someone has to die all of a sudden there are random wildlings/watchmen/whatever who are getting killed even late in the ice lake fight --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

there is nothing to suggest that dragon glass has anything at all to do with the forging of Valyrian steel. all that we know concretely about it is that it is spellforged in dragonfire. it would be incredibly unrealistic if the show chose to claim that all it needs is some molten obsidian to be mixed in with the molten steel. there is no way that and dragonfire would be all that it takes to make the steel come out impossibly lighter, impossibly stronger and perpetually sharp. realistically if you tried to combine molten rock with steel, you'd ruin the metal and wouldn't even be able to make anything out of it. rock just does not have any physical characteristics that would be relevant or positive in forging a metal blade. i am not disagreeing with you, but the show is likely to handwave it all as "valyrian steel works because it haz dragonglass in it!" simply because the writers are backed into a corner with the choices they have made. that or the night king just crushes everyone, really. dragonglass isn't especially useful against wights, since it shatters on impact (see sam fighting wight in book 3 after killing a walker with dragonglass), so weapons made of that aren't gonna turn the horde of wights back, just kill the walkers. and now that they've invented magic instakill spears to make dragons non-viable as a weapon against them, there's basically no useful weapon against the army of the dead, now complete with wall-melting dragon as far as the 'lost spellforge methods' we've got two characters loaded up with forbidden/lost knowledge (bran/sam) and at least one person adept in fire magic (melisandre) so it seems likely that the secrets will be revealed. valyrian steel is a pretty clear chekov's gun for the story. --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

yeah to be clear i am speaking only of the show. i don't even recall valyrian steel having been shown to have unique effects against walkers in the books (doing some research apparently 'dragonsteel'--strongly hinted to be valyrian steel--is written of in the archives as being lethal to them) --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

The whole set-up of this was really weird and lame. It made the White Walker army look pretty pathetic just standing around and staring. Not one of them had a ranged weapon? Oh wait the King guy had an icicle spear he didn't bother to use until the dragons came. They weren't even paying attention to the ice freezing over. Who knows how long they were waiting for no reason.
The set-up would have worked better if they were hiding behind enemy lines barely surviving or something. --- Kind Regards, Darmik ... Copied to Clipboard!
