Ned dies! Robb dies! Joffrey dies! Catelyn's a zombie and the Mountain's a frankenstein! Feels good to get that out of my system. modedit: same deal as above, just to be safe | ||

King Joffrey dies too. And then Cersei acts as regent for King Tommen, de facto queen, but winds up in jail along with Margaery Tyrell, first Renly's then Joff's then Tommen's wife. I wonder if Kevan accepts being the new regent for Tommen or how the succession continues in ADwD. modedit: last one | ||

She's described as "the thing that was Catelyn Stark" so I think zombie is a fair assessment. | ||

In what way is Catelyn a "Zombie"? I know she is referred to as Stoneheart, but is she still there in the head? Does she still think how she once did, or is she literally just a zombie? she basically revived after being killed but her wounds didnt heal so she cant talk anymore cause she got a columbian necktie | ||

She gets killed in the Red Wedding and then resurrected by Thoros of Myr. But since they cut deep into her throat to kill her, her vocal chords are severed and she can't speak once resurrected. So that effect plus her grim nature and seemingly 'cold' hearted nature towards anyone or anything not aligned with her vengeance-trip contributes to her new epithet. | ||

My Personal theory is that you lose a part of your 'humanity' after resurrection i.e. its impossible to be 100% 'restored'. I also think you lose more the longer you are dead. Catelyn was dead for several days at least, maybe even a week (I'm going off memory). So there's not a whole lot of 'Catelyn' left, she only lives for revenge on the people who made the red wedding. | ||

I dont think they are going to kill the king next episode, but as im re-reading book 1 I am surprised how fast the banners went up and all that fighting happened, they have a LOT of stuff to cover in the rest of this series, I honestly cant wait. Also, I have really warmed to Ser Barristan in the series, ill be so sad when he is forcibly retired and the kingsguard laugh at him  | ||

Is the part about the Mountain actually confirmed in the book? I can see it going that way, but was it actually written in Feast for Crows? I've just finished the 4th book 2 months ago and already I feel like I should go read everything again T_T | ||

I always blamed Sansa. If she hadn't went and told Cersei that they were leaving King's Landing, I think they could have all gotten away. And the story would be completely different. Can you imagine if Ned was around? How many people would rally behind him instead of the Lannisters. | ||
