Best 9 . 510 only thing is you ' re a tad too skinny and it ' s psyche me out <| sep |> No . They didn ' t . postingno 3 m i l l i o n u n d o c u m entedimmigrantsdidnotvote The candidates this year were horrible and I wouldn ' t have been happy with either . But misinformation and lies spread by fanatical media outlets and people like you who eat that shit up are what got Trump elected . Even though he IS losing the popular vote by more than 2 million . <| sep |> Well Mel wouldn ' t because iirc , she was sold into slavery and then bought by the Red Priests . So she was not raised in the traditions of her origin . Hence , no mask . In fairness , we don ' t fully know what the details of Mel ' s flashback are . Was she seeing herself , as a child , sold into slavery or was she seeing her daughter sold into slavery ? Could it be something completely different than either of those things ? As far as Asshai , since there are no children , I would assume that it is a place adults go to finish trainingstudy more . We do know that Quaithe , Mirri Maz , Marwyn and Melisandre have all studied in Asshai with the former and latter being actual shadowbinders . Mel , not wearing a mask and most likely being glamoured herself I think are subtle hints that Quaithe ' s mask is concealing her identity since we first meet her Qarth . Just my thoughts , though ! There is a difference between having Targ blood in your family and tinfoil theories that someone is secretly a royal Targ . Totally agree ! JamieCersei or Tyrion actually being fathered by Aerys and not Tywin for example . In fairness to those theories , GRRM has dropped some breadcrumbs that lead people to those conclusions . They could just be red herrings or they could bear fruit . And while it is so obvious that Jon is Lyanna and Rhaegar ' s son , it has yet to be textually confirmed . So technically it is still a theory until stated as fact . Also agree here but , in fairness , the show confirmed it and while they are definitely different mediums , the textual evidence is there in book one . When the story was created as a trilogy , all the clues in A Game of Thrones point to RLJ and DD had to guess and they guessed correctly . Young Griff counts as a secret Targ to at least in universe characters not in the know very few . Though the better question is if he is a Targ through being Rhaegar ' s son or through actually being a Blackfyre . That is a question more so for us , the readers . Also mostly agree here . From what I read on forums , most people seem to have this idea that any drop of Targ blood automatically makes someone a secret Targ . That was all I was correcting since Targ blood is in many , many characters . Also , if he ' s a Blackfyre he ' s not really a secret Targ at all but just has Targ blood . Young Griff believes himself to be the son of Rhaegar and Jon Connington believes it as well . So , yeah , the fact that he potentially survived is a secret but not his lineage and not to the reader sort of . And I thought the thing about Brienne was that she was a decedent of Sir Duncan the Tall , not a Targ . She might have Targ blood in her , but that is somewhat irrelevant . The Dunk as an ancestor is what connects this story to Dunk and Egg short stories . Both are true . She is a descendant of Dunk and also one of Egg ' s sisters most likely Daella . Martin confirmed that Dunk and either Daella or Rhae had a child or children . The full details on this are still a secret . Was it before he became one of the Kingsguard ? Did they have an affair ? Were they married ? We don ' t know just yet . All we know is Brienne comes from that pairing . So I fully understand the history of this world and find that comment a bit insulting . I didn ' t mean it to sound insulting so I apologize if it came across that way . My point was that many characters can and do have Targ blood in their veins . Brown Ben Plumm is another example . Obviously Robert , Renly Stannis as well and , by extension , Shireen and Gendry and Mya Stone and Edric Storm and all of Robert ' s other bastards . Both of Egg ' s sisters married and had children one of them being an ancestor of Brienne as we already talked about . The other sister ' s children have yet to be revealed but that line is also out there . Pretty much all of House Longwaters has Targ blood as well . And I already brought up the Martell ' s earlier . If we go back down the Targ tree , I ' m sure there are a lot more bastards and true born children .
