Could Jaqen H'ghar be the night king? They’ve never been in the same scene.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I agree. The point is he has to be dead first and his face has to removed by one of the Faceless Men. If Arya doesn't kill him what other Faceless Man will? or will any fresh corpse that they had no hand in killing do? When she killed Walder Frey, she wore the face of some servant girl. How/where did she acquire that? Arya might be an assassin, stone cold killer, but so far she's only killed people whom have in someway caused her or her family harm. She also had the bag of faces. She didn't leave Bravos with them, and unless she killed a person or two off screen, where/how did she get them (Walder Freys sons, posssibly)? |

I was just thinking a couple weeks back about how Jaime is supposed to be an elite fighter and how them chopping off his hand ruined any good fight scenes involving him. I think leaving him whole to kick some ass later on would have been better for the story than whatever making him handicapped added, especially where we’re at in the story now. Jaime riding north with both his hands and his valyrian steel sword to help kick some white walker ass would be much more appealing than left handed Jaime.
On a side note, who is going to end up swinging Sam’s family sword? They had him take it for a reason and It sure as hell wont be him. |

That video yesterday got me thinking.
Arya and the Hound will charge the Mountain and Cersei. Arya will slide under the Mountains legs and stab Cersei in the eye with Brans dagger. When the Mountain turns around to kill Arya, the Hound will collect his fucking head. Bank on it.

Arguably she (symbolically) killed him already. He just happened to be rescued and “reborn”. His “rebirth” (going from bad to not-so-bad) mirrors the “rebirth” of Gregor as Strong (bad to really-fucking-bad). One is reborn in light (by the monks), while the other is reborn in darkness. Martin loves this kind of symmetry. There is a good chance they kill each other. The idea of Arya giving the Gift to a fully redeemed Sandor isn’t bad either. Valar fucking morghulis. Similarly, the kingsguard who is also a kingslayer will die protecting a regent (which one remains to be seen). That’s my prediction and I’m sticking with it. |

Arya had the chance to kill the hound once, but instead left him to suffer and die (or so she thought) slowly. I think she WILL HAVE to kill him in season 8; not out of spite, but out of mercy. I have a theory that The Hound will go through fire to save Arya from The Mountain in some way...and then Arya will have to put the dog down to ease his suffering. Quote HistoryQuoted:

His whole identity was the Alpha-Warrior who could do what he wanted without consequences. Losing his hand would be like Tom Brady being forced to retire after his first Superbowl. His whole identity was built into the godlike swordsman. After he is crippled, he finally realizes he is merely human and starts to empathize with others around him, such as Brienne, which causes him to develop actual humanity and begin to question the stupid shit his sister has been doing. Without losing the hand, Jamie never abandons Cersei.
