I think Ned wouldn't break his vow, but to keep a promise to his sister and protect his nephew, he would let the world believe he had. I ALSO saw an interesting theory about that tourney--the unknown knight that defeated the knights who'd picked on Howland Reed? That KNIGHT may have been Liana, and Rhaegar figured it out, thus honoring her as the queen of joy and beauty (or whatever the title was).<br /><br />As to Azor Ahai... THERE I'm not sure. There are contradicting things I keep getting stuck on. I think the PROPHECY fits Dany best: reborn of salt and fire at the appearance of the bleeding star? Absolutely her. But then Melisandre says she keeps praying for a vision of Azor Ahai but all she sees is snow. And then I keep coming back to the dragon having three heads... I think these are two of them, but I don't know which would be Azor Ahai... I DO think Jon will come back--I think Melisandre may revive him like Thoros revived Beric Dondarion. Maybe his death brings a vision of all the world ending because he isn't there to save it or something...

Took me a minute to calm down and keep reading LOL. Jon is my favorite character of the bunch. <br /><br />I love the R+L=J theories and hope that they are correct. The hints in the book make it very likely to me, especially the Kingsguard at the Tower of Joy. <br /><br />Totally bummed the season is coming to an end and I'll probably end up re-reading the books, especially now that I love Oberyn even more than I did before after watching Pedro Pascal's awesome portrayal.
