Yeah , used . That is why they are telling you now we have been there , that was stupid , we are not coming back and neither should you . Maybe learn from the mistakes of other people ? P . S HMQkV 5 cTuoY <| sep |> Fucking heartbreaking story . Anyone who hasn ' t seen it ought to watch The Internet ' s Own Boy <| sep |> My personal theory is that Jon will become the Nights King as a way to stop the others . I feel as though the others are way too strong to be believably beaten , even if they manage to reforge Valyrian Steel . So after a long battle Jon will sacrifice himself as a peace offering , this will be accepted due to his Stark , Targ and First Men blood and will create a new pact of ice and fire . I also think this would fit the bittersweet ending grrm has planned . To me it definitely seems more likely than the generic Jon and Dany rule westeros together with Tyrion as hand fairytale ending .
