The Wheel of Time: The
Prophecy
“And it shall come to pass that what men made
shall be shattered,’ ” Moiraine whispered. “ ‘The Shadow shall lie
across the Pattern
of the Age, and the Dark One shall
once more lay his hand upon the world of man. Women shall weep and men quail as
the nations of the earth are rent like rotting cloth. Neither shall anything
stand nor abide.’ ”

“ ‘Yet one shall be born to face the Shadow,’
”
“Moiraine said more loudly. “
‘Born once more as he was born before and shall be born again, time without
end! The Dragon shall be Reborn, and there shall be wailing and gnashing of
teeth at his rebirth. In sackcloth and ashes shall he clothe the people, and he
shall break the world again by his coming, tearing apart all ties that bind!
“ ‘Like the unfettered dawn
shall he blind us, and burn us, yet shall the Dragon Reborn confront the Shadow
at the Last
Battle, and his blood shall give us the Light. Let tears
flow, O ye people of the world. Weep for your salvation!’ ”
Artist rendition of where the Last Battle was fought Would you say it looks like an arrowhead? |
Like I keep saying Rand – the Dragon
Reborn was too large a character to be given to one character in ASOIAF so he
was broken up between Jon Snow, Daenerys and
now Bran.

A Song of Ice and Fire:
And it shall come to pass that
what men made shall be shattered – This is the Wall plain and simple.
Everyone knew it was coming down they have foreshadowed it:
The Wall - Eastwatch by the Sea |
This is exactly what is going to happen |
But not this time! |
The Shadow shall lie across
the Pattern of the Age, and the Dark One shall once more lay his hand upon the
world of man – This is the Night King with his Army
of the Dead crossing the barrier that stood to protect
the realms of me. For those of you who
have been paying attention the Hound told
you that they will pass the wall because he saw it himself.
Night King |
Army of the Dead |
Tormond Giantsbane is screwed |
Past tense. They are marching past the Wall |
Women shall weep and men quail
as the nations of the earth are rent like rotting cloth – This is the people
learning the truth that has been hidden for so long
Yet one shall be born to face
the Shadow – This is both Jon Snow and Daenerys who represent the Dragon Reborn
in ASOIAF - When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor
Ahai shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake
dragons out of stone.
Born once more as he was born
before and shall be born again, time without end! The Dragon shall be Reborn,
and there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth at his rebirth. In sackcloth
and ashes shall he clothe the people, and he shall break the world again by his
coming, tearing apart all ties that bind
Like the unfettered dawn shall
he blind us, and burn us, yet shall the Dragon Reborn confront the Shadow at
the Last Battle, and his blood shall give us the Light
Doesn't this look like TWOT mountain where the Last Battle was fought? Part of the Battle in ASOIAF has been fought here. |
Same mountain before it was covered with snow |
What it means that Bran was touched by the Night King
I have never thought Dany
would live or her dragons when all was said and done. I still feel that her and Jon will come to
see things differently and they will end up on opposite sides when all is said
and done.
Why I believe Daenerys is “Breaking Bad
I believe we also have been
shown Jon Snow’s path when everything is said and done:
The time has come for you to become me
Let tears flow, O ye people of
the world. Weep for your salvation! – GRRM isn’t going to be as nice as Robert
Jordan so with that said will the peoples of this world survive when it’s all
over?
Will it really? Read my comments in What it means that Bran was touched by the Night King
It may not be the case

Comments encouraged. Love to hear the
ideas of others. Most believe that since I present my idea’s as “fact
like” I’m not open to change my viewpoints which is far from the truth. I
simply look at the information presented and go from there. If you can
shine a light on another way of thinking that opens the door to debate.
