We've tamed larger animals just fine. It's just dogs are smart and really useful, so we had more reasons to domesticate them. It's not that we couldn't get larger animals, just there was no point. Do you think a bear is smart enough to be taught (relatively easily) to fetch something, or to herd animals? The dragons obey her because she has dragon blood in her, or something along those lines from what I can tell. | ||

I thought was to be taken for granted. | ||

You can tame them, same with lions to some degree, but you can't truly domesticate them. They will still be really dangerous and difficult to handle. This does not have so much to do with the intelligence of the animal as with how they communicate with other animals and how their social structure is. It also depends on its agressiveness and other factors. | ||

I don't think it's gonna be that simple. So far in the series we've seen that fighting over power is more important than anything else for most guys, except for the Wall people. | ||

I certainly think that kingdoms would only unit against the white walker if they already killed a lot of people and destroyed most of the north. And even than I'm not too sure all would get onboard. | ||

I think the wall is crucial if it falls the whole of Westeros falls the white walkers have to be stopped before they pass it. I mean look at how much time they spend on just the wall itself and how big and amazing it is. It gets mroe screen time than most characters so it has to mean something right? | ||

How did you know the white walkers would come back?! Maybe because they were in the prologue to Episode 1 of Season 1? Be careful what you say about what is obvious and what isn't...remember this is GRRM we're talking about here. | ||

I really miss Eddard Stark as this was a great character. Hopefully the girl with the dragoons gets more screen time and is put as the lead character. | ||
