TWOT: Who is Jain Farstrider?

Jain, Mat and Thom

Jain Charin aka Noal aka Jain Farstrider – author of several books among those are “The Travels of Jain Farstrider” and “Voyages Among the Sea Folk”

The books are enjoyed by mostly everyone because of its adventures.

He disappeared in 981 NE after a trip into the Great Blight.

Noal saved Mat’s life during the gholam attack and then was invited to join the Band of the Red Hand.  We learned later that Noal was supposedly misused by Ishamael who said he turned him to the shadow making him a darkfriend.  It is theorized that he was sent to spy on Mat.

“The old man tapped a gnarled finger against the side of his beak of a nose. Both looked to have been broken several times. “Not a man to bother unless you must, and then I’d think three times.”

“Who is this man with two names?” Tuon asked. “Only great men are spoken of so, and you speak as if everyone should know him.”

“He was a fool,” Noal said grimly before Mat could open his mouth, though Olver did get his open, and left it gaping while the old man continued. “He went gallivanting about the world and left a good and loving wife to die of a fever without him there to hold her hand while she died. He let himself be made into a tool by—” Abruptly Noal’s face went blank. Staring through Mat, he rubbed at his forehead as though attempting to recall something.

“Jain Farstrider was a great man,” Olver said fiercely. His hands curled into small fists, as though he was ready to fight for his hero. “He fought Trollocs and Myrddraal, and he had more adventures than anyone else in the whole world! Even Mat! He captured Cowin Gemallan after Gemallan betrayed Malkier to the Shadow!”

Noal came to himself with a start and patted Olver’s shoulder. “He did that, boy. That much is to his credit. But what adventure is worth leaving your wife to die alone?” He sounded sad enough to die on the spot himself.”

“A figure joined him at the fire. Lanky and bony, Noal looked like a scarecrow who had dusted himself off and decided to go to town. Despite his white hair and leathery face, Noal was as spry as men half his age. When he was handling a weapon, anyway. Other times he seemed as clumsy as a mule in a dining parlor.

"You're quite the notable man," Noal said to Mat, holding out his palms to the fire. "When you stumbled across me in Ebou Dar, I had no idea what illustrious company I'd find myself in. Give this a few more months and you'll be more famous than Jain Farstrider."

Mat hunkered down farther into his chair.

"Men always think it would be a grand to be known in every tavern and every city," Noal said softly. "But burn me if it isn't just a headache."

"What do you know of it?"

"Jain complained about it," Noal said softly.”

“Mat," Noal called, glancing over his shoulder.

Mat waved Thom on, but hesitated, looking back.

"If you ever meet a Malkieri," Noal said, "you tell him Jain Farstrider died clean."

"I will, Jain," Mat said. "May the light hold you.”

In the end Noal sacrificed his own life to save Mat, Thom and Moiraine.  He died a hero.

ASOIAF: Who is Lomas Longstrider?

Lomas Longstrider travelled the world and wrote two famous books, “Wonders” and “Wonders Made by Man.”  Wonders recorded the seven natural wonders of the known world.  Wonders Made by Man recorded the nine man-made wonders of the known world.

“Come moonrise, they were back in their saddles, trotting eastward under a mantle of stars. The old Valyrian road glimmered ahead of them like a long silver ribbon winding through wood and dale. For a little while Tyrion Lannister felt almost at peace. “Lomas Longstrider told it true. The road’s a wonder.”

“Lomas Longstrider?” asked Duck.

“A scribe, long dead,” said Haldon. “He spent his life traveling the world and writing about the lands he visited in two books he called Wonders and Wonders Made by Man.”

“An uncle of mine gave them to me when I was just a boy,” said Tyrion. “I read them until they fell to pieces.”

There is only one person to me that fits Noal’s description who could have been Lomas Longstrider IMO.  That person is Bronn.

Bronn

Bronn saved Tyrion's life by becoming his champion to defeating Ser Vardis Egen in a trial by battle in the Eyrie.  Later they both meet up with the Vale Mountain Clans among them Timett, who was a given the title red hand, after he put out his own eye out during his rite of manhood into the clan.  This to me symbolizes Tyrion's Band of the Red Hand.

Bronn has been beyond the Wall. When asked why he was there, he bluntly answers that he was "working".

He was “working” was only mentioned on the TV show.  The show has introduced clues not mentioned in the books. Could he also have been misused by the bad guys who I believe are the Children of the Forest?

The show has also told us that Bronn's nose has been broken 3 times:

“Will he, my lord?” Catelyn said coolly. “I wonder.” She had seen Bronn fight on the high road; it was no accident that he had survived the journey while other men had died. He moved like a panther, and that ugly sword of his seemed a part of his arm.”

“Bronn rose, cat-quick and cat-graceful, turning his sword in his hand. “You’ll have me beside you in the battle, dwarf.”

“Bronn laughed. “Reading books again? Books will ruin your sword eye, boy. I see a skull too. A black banner.”  - This quote was spoken to Podrick Payne, Tyrion’s squire, by Bronn.  It reminded me of Noal speaking to Olver who was like a squire of sorts to Mat.  Where Olver was very talkative and into everything Podrick was just the opposite.

Summary:

I don't know if Bronn is Lomas Longstrider or not. I only know that there are two famous book writers with very similar names in both series. Both wrote books that were very popular with the general populace.  Both did not seem to look at to be such formidable warriors but were extremely deadly when it came to battle.  Both joined up with the who I consider to be the same characters in both books Mat/Tyrion to become part of the Band of the Red Hand by saving that persons life. Both have been beyond where most travelers venture, Noal the Great Blight and Bronn beyond the Wall.  Did the COTF send Bronn out scouting the Others and could he have been the one who woke them from what seems to have been an 8,000 year slumber?  Did he have to fight his way back fighting both Others and wights similar to Jain fighting Myrddraal and Trollocs?  I know that some will say that Bronn's age doesn't fit that of Lomas Longstrider.  To those I can only say remember the glamor that Melisandre placed on Mance Rayder. A glamor is represented by the Mask of Mirrors in TWOT.  Also remember that Melisandre in the books seems to be much older than what her physical appearance would indicate.
