Spoilers Below
I keep telling everyone that
similarities between The Wheel of Time (TWOT) and A Song of Ice and Fire
(ASOIAF) are vast even if there are those out there that say otherwise. It seems at most every major story arc we get a 180-degree change to make it unique. I for one hope this one is not. In the Wheel of Time when the Horn of Valere
is blown the dead who rise from their graves will only fight for the Light. But with this being the Game of Thrones who
knows. Tyrion who is my favorite
character is based upon Mat who is also my favorite character within the Wheel
of Time. You will notice that Mat is one
of the first people that the dead approach when the Horn of Valere is blown
during the Last Battle. Tyrion is in the crypts; if the Starks rise from their crypts for which side will they fight?
The Wheel of Time: Who do the
Heroes of the Horn of Valere follow?
A figure rode through the mists at the front of the heroes. Tall and
imperious, with a nose like a beak, Artur Hawkwing carried Justice, his sword,
on his shoulder as he rode. Though the rest of the hundred-odd heroes followed
Hawkwing, one broke off in a streak of mist, galloping away. Mat didn’t get a
good look at the rider. Who had it been, and where was he going so quickly?
Mat pulled his hat on tighter, nudging Pips forward to meet the ancient
king. I suppose
I’ll know which side summoned him, Mat thought,if he tries to kill me. Mat lifted the ashandarei across his saddle. Could he fight
Artur Hawkwing? Light, could anyone beat one of the heroes of the Horn?
“Hello, Hawkwing,” Mat called.
“Gambler,”
Hawkwing replied. “Do take better care of what has been allotted you. Almost, I
worried we would not be summoned for this fight.” Mat let out
a relaxing breath. “Bloody ashes, Hawkwing! You needn’t have drawn it out like
that, you bloody goat-kisser. So you fight for us?
Of course
we fight for the Light,” Hawkwing said. “We would never fight for the Shadow.”
“But I was told—” Mat began.
“You were
told wrong,” Hawkwing
said.
“Besides,” Hend said, laughing. “If the other side had been able to summon us, you’d be dead
by now!”
Comments encouraged. Love to hear the idea’s 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.
