I think LS will just simply be merged with Arya.

 

[Iceman]

She comes back and goes around hanging anyone remotely involved with the Red Wedding. Still is.

Oh, didn't expect her to still be around! I can't imagine her being afraid of White Walkers in the end game.

 

[Roose Bolton]

She was about to hang a few major characters last time we saw her. One of them was confirmed to be alive, but the others might be dead.

 

[Reek]

Tell us the one word, Unicorn Roose

 

[Roose Bolton]

"Superman"

How would that work?

Who?!!

And she sounds like quite an important character to cut altogether if she's been gallivanting (Theon ) all over the place in the last couple of books. I had thought it was a one-off revenge mission to settle the scores for her remaining children and then die or vanish with the mission complete. Was she resurrected in the same way as the Brotherhood guys? I thought it was going to be like a divine bargain so she would have to die when the goal was achieved.

 

[Reek]

How would that work?

Just her basically getting the revenge Stoneheart is getting. Not the undead aspect or anything really to do with stoneheart, just the revenge.

For the show it would seem weird to have both Arya and Stoneheart with a 'list' so to speak, so i expect them to just be 'merged' in a way.

 

[Reek]

I'm reading the whole new Aeron chapter... goddamn this book needs to come out

Pod and a book only character, though it's possible they're still alive.

Basically, she was ressurected the same way as Beric, or rather Beric gave up his life to ressurect her. But she had been dead for days and didn't come back the same. She's basically been haunting the the Riverlands since the end of ASOS. I don't think there's any real mechanics to it, she's just a reanimated corpse obsessed with revenge and nothing larger.

Oh ok. I thought she was going to kill everyone on her list in the books too and LS was just going on a murderous rampage of everyone else. I'll catch up on the last 3 books after this season ends and I'm sure everything will be clearer.

I thought it was [BLACKOUT]Brienne[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Roose Bolton]

I thought it was [BLACKOUT]Brienne[/BLACKOUT]

She shows up in ADWD, talked her way out of it.

I'm reading the whole new Aeron chapter... goddamn this book needs to come out

Ramsay needs to meet Euron

 

[Reek]

He may as well in the show too... I'm not sure they have made Ramsay evil enough yet

 

[Marvolo]

Oh ok. I thought she was going to kill everyone on her list in the books too and LS was just going on a murderous rampage of everyone else. I'll catch up on the last 3 books after this season ends and I'm sure everything will be clearer.

Spoiler

LS doesnt believe Brienne is looking for Sansa and thinks Brienne is working with Lannisters. Just before Brienne is hanged she is given a choice: sword or noose. Kill Jaime and prove her loyalty or her and her companions hang. She refuses to chose. As Pod is being hanged and choking she yells out "sword!" and LS gives her a reprieve.

Oh that sounds pretty creepy haha, even for her kids. I guess she would recognise and be cool with them? Although if she's going for Pod of all people who knows lol.

ah, i was using the wiki to refresh and it just said

A Feast for Crows

While leading the brotherhood, Stoneheart's outlaws come upon a small party led by Brienne of Tarth, who informs her that she is searching for Sansa at the behest of Jaime Lannister. Stoneheart says that Brienne has turned traitor, as she carries Oathkeeper, a Lannister sword forged from the Stark Valyrian steel blade, Ice. Brienne swears she is still faithful but Stoneheart insists she must prove it by killing Jaime. Brienne refuses, stating that Jaime has changed. Stoneheart says she must choose, either kill Jaime or be hanged. Brienne refuses to choose. Just before she is executed however, she shouts out a word.

didn't have ADwD... so now i have to find that instead of looking up dirty things.

Bloody hell! There's a cliffhanger ending for an episode.

It should be noted that Pod is just a boy in the novels, he's not a teenager. So Stoneheart being prepared to kill him shows how far she's come compared to the woman she was. It's really hard to say what she'd do if she met her kids, she can't even speak properly so it's hard to get a read on any real depth of her thoughts.

I see. Sounds crazy. Alright thanks for that.

Well like they say, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

 

[Roose Bolton]

I heard a theory a while back that she might run into Sansa at some point and ultimately kill Littlefinger for her. But honestly with how far gone her mind is I'm not sure if she'd even comprehend who Sansa or any of her kids are. I think Robb was the main one she remembers and...yeah

 

[Reek]

Robb is still on his horse somewhere...

 

[Iceman]

Well like they say, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

She was more brutally murdered along with her first born and his wife and her grandkid rather than... "scorned". t:

I remember reading a theory that LS is heading North to crown Jon with Robb's crown.
