Forge Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 4 minutes ago, Leader said: Has it been prophesied that either Jaime/Tyrion take out Cersei? Yes, by maggy the frog. Though again, it could be misinterpreted. It's just the younger brother...so technically, it could be any younger brother, not her own. The main theory is that it'll be one of her own two brothers, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Season 5 episode 1 is when Cersei talked to Maggie the Frog. I cant recall if the younger brother thing was mentioned in the show or not. But know the episode it happened.

So that could be something they change after all, I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to check that out. Sounds like a fairytale character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Cersei mentions the prophecy of a witch she'd been told years ago: "She promised me three children . . . she promised me they'd die," she says, and of course, it wasn't all that long ago that we actually saw this scene on the show; it happens in the season five premiere where a young Cersei visits Maggy the frog, the fortune teller in question......" The character name went right passed me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marrying the king, not the prince. Being cast down by a younger queen and the prophecy about her children. But in the book there is an additional part of the prophecy that indicates she will be killed by the Valonqar; the show does not mention that specific part of the prophecy, though.

You're right, the little bit of additional digging I did the Valonqar part of the prophecy is NOT included in the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikeManDan Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 IMO then since the Valonqar prophecy was withheld from the show it would've been more fitting, again IMO, to have Arya kill Cersei due to her list and Jon kill the NK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"In the books, Maggy concludes: “And when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you.” Valonqar means “little brother” in High Valyrian, and in the books Cersei assumes it's Tyrion who will kill her (hence her intense hatred of him)" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard I might as well wait until GRRM finishes them or not even bother if he can't finish them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which means hes on the final stage of WOW being released and the book is done. Its WELL worth jumping into. The characters and their build is incredible. If it never finishes, still worth it to me.

They're so damn good that the frustration on waiting (if they ever even happen) is maddening. Until you know the book 7 release date, I'd hold off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
