There's an interesting parallel between Ramsay's jealousy and Arianne's. He's Roose's legitimised firstborn son and wedded to a Stark in Winterfell - it's quite likely genuinely Roose's plan for Ramsay to be the new Warden of the North, while Walda's baby will "merely" inherit the Dreadfort. But Ramsay can't shake the feeling that the Dreadfort - with its *de facto* proof of his legitimate Bolton status meaning more to him than a paper one - is the more important prize, and he'll gladly ruin Roose's plans (and probably kill him) to get it. (The parallel being that Arianne rebelled against her father after learning that he intended for Quentyn to inherit Sunspear, not realising he had much bigger plans for her.)

would also explain Walda's fear. Specifically fear, rather than 'shock'. You'd expect her to be shocked at learning Ramsay murdered Walder, but she's AFRAID. Why? Because for the first time she realises Ramsay's plan. Roose presumably told his wife he'd legitimise Ramsay, and that Walda's son wouldn't rule the North. She'd got used to that, content that at least her child would get the House seat, itself a considerable fief. Now she knows Ramsay won't even let that happen. Her child, if it's a son, is as good as dead before it's even born.

One thing you missed is Ramsay's falchion. He was brandishing it frequently in an earlier chapter and even used it to cut his pie but when it came to put Luton out of his misery Ramsay grabs a pike from a nearby soldier to do it. The only reason Ramsay wouldn't go for the sword he loves brandishing so much is that he couldn't and the only reason he couldn't is because it could implicate him. Perhaps it was still covered in blood from the murder.

The collapsing stable and poorly constructed roof, were because Ramsey burned down Winterfell, and when the invited all the Northern houses to Winterfell, they hastily made all new wood structures. They also commented that the front gate was poorly constructed as well.

Why doesn't Ramsay just send 20 good men to do the job in the books like he did in the show? Poor George getting caught up in all of these small details. Doesn't he know the fans want to get to the ball numbing action as quickly as possible so we can be SHOCKED ™ (SHOCKED ™ is a registered trademark of D&D LLC a subsidiary of HBO)? Who cares about intricate plot when you can experience DRAMA™. He needs to wrap up these boring side stories and get to the fire dragons fighting ice zombies already! Doesn't he understand that he is just Tolkein 2.0 and has to give the fans the fantasy epic they all want?! Anyway, I think Preston is reading a bit too much into this. It's not like George has decades of experience writing crazy, conspiracy-laden, nuanced science fiction under his belt. He's obviously spending 25 years writing a run of the mill fantasy story that relies on all the tropes we've come to expect from the genre. Good thing I figured this all out by reading the GOT wiki and watching the HBO series otherwise I'd spend all my time reading into things.

@briangriffin9793

None of those are particularly brilliant and are actually problems. The miller boys were a short term solution that is causing more trouble than it solved. Destroying Ser Roderyk, at that moment, caused his father to need to make moves to say it was Ironmen. One of major reasons Little Walder had to die (and Big Walder needs to follow) is because they know it was Dreadfort men that burnt Winterfell. Back to Ser Roderyk...not hard to destroy an army that believes you are there to help them instead. Lady Hornwood...sloppy does not begin to describe that blunder. It nearly cost him his life, the only saving factor was that he was so baseborn that he could swap with Reek. Even then, Preston rightly points out, Lady Hornwood was loved and had many suitors...her former men are likely to slip a knife in Ramsay's back. Ramsay is only still in the game because his father covered for him and the Northerners were busy in the South.

I enjoy reading the lengthy sub plot stuff. In case you haven't noticed real life is pretty much the same but with different context: I could write a story about you, when you get up and do whatever it is you do but that story becomes WAY more interesting when we add in family members and friends with their own ambitions, thoughts, actions and motivations. Then to make it more interesting we form close relationships with some characters and distant relationships with others and see how your perspective and opinion on each other causes you to act in various ways, causing ripple effects that border on literary genius yet is just normal when dealing with human interaction.

So for better or worse Ramsey is Roose’s only heir which is why Roose tolerates Ramsey’s insanity and scheming.

Housework is no longer a chore, with Preston Jacobs on in the background.

You are my light in the darkness preston :)

The intro just puts a smile on my face!

Re-watching these theory videos just makes me all the more eager for the next chapter in Sweetrobins's Winds of Winter.

Perhaps the reason Ramsay is putting on his sword belt when coming into the hall is evidence that Ramsay changed his clothes.

The battle of Ice at Wintefell is the event I look most forward to if TWOW is ever released. I appreciate this series you're doung.

How much detail can one man fit in a work of fiction! Jesus Christ!!!!

It would be interesting if Stannis's plan involves him taking the North and leaving a minimal army outside of Winterfell to ensure no travel in and out. He'd be laying siege without attacking the castle, it would be a nice parallel between now and the siege of Storm's End. He could take the North and the Bolton's wouldn't be able to stop him. It would also mean all this inner turmoil within Winterfell would be more important in the long run, since they can't get out and their food is being exhausted and people are dying, tensions would rise. Through winter they would turn on each other, and the horror that is the Bolton's could be expanded into outright cannibalism to survive, showing us firsthand how monstrous and depraved they can be. A truly terrifying sight as a climax for this plotline, instead of a typical battle in the snow, it would be the winds of winter taking hold as the literally eat each other alive.

Preston if he had sent manderlys and umbers outside to fight and both were in fact plotting they would just join up with Stannis. By sending the Freys and Manderlys together the Manderlys are deterred from crossing to Stannis. And by keeping the umbers inside he also maintains them in line. actually the move that made sense was ejecting one force with questionable loyalty and one loyal, this way he makes sure no one crosses over.

PRESTON MY MAN! Honestly this is the best analysis/crackpot theory you have ever done. I am wholly convinced; everything adds up and whilst being complex, the schemes are not over the top. It reveals that all parties are independent actors and work for their own goals. And that Ramsay is a schemer and not stupid at all was proven a number of times through his actions. Your work here actually convinced me to patreonize for the first time. Keep it up! Greetings from Austria

Perhaps he was yawning *because* he'd been awake for hours. We don't just yawn when we wake up. In fact, I find myself yawning *more* when I've been up for hours, but am tired, rather than yawning a lot when I've *just* woken up (though I acknowledge I'm not everyone).

Preston, your theories are objectively best!

I do believe Ramsay killed Little Walder but after LW somehow referred him as a bastard

I've been watching Preston for years now and always am pumped when I get that notification. he's my favorite ASoIaF KZreadr by far the best

Ejecting the Freys would make the battle begin outside Winterfell. While ejecting northern men would cross over to Stannis.

Preston: "... that Bran and Rickon are alive." My brain: *plays the Quentyn is alive theme*

Thanks for these videos Preston, eye opening as always

The theory sounds solid but there's a few lingering questions... Why is Big Walder still alive? To blame the Manderly? They would be blamed either way... Why not kill them both? Why did Big Walder go along with this? As you pointed out in the last video, he could die... So he risks death and most likely sacrifice hundreds/thousand of frey men in exchange of? Removing the 38th heir to the twins? What's in it for him? Or was it just the threats? So can we assume he told someone later on (a frey)? And most importantly, why is Luton dead? To silence him? If he had to talk wouldn't it be done already? I mean, if commit murder and want to silence a witness, you have to do it BEFORE he's in contact with everyone you do not want him to talk to, right? But Luton was with everyone for at least a few minutes. If he didn't split the beans to Roose now, why would he do it later on? This is an extremely important matter. He would speak to Roose right away, or not at all, wouldn't he? From Ramsay's perspective, either he's 100% loyal to him, or he isn't. If he is 100% loyal, why kill him? If he is not, why allow him to be with Roose, even if only a few minutes? That's incredibly stupid. Not to say that Ramsay is clever, but if he planned all this, why have Luton killed there and not kill him after Little Walder? And then kill Big Walder as well? 2 freys and a bolton dead, this REALLY points to the manderly (or any northern house, so it works). Allowing Big Walder to speak in front of everyone, and giving 5 minutes to Luton to speak to Roose - had he been disloyal to Ramsay - seems an unnecessary risk. And Luton didn't talk to Roose, so why kill him, now rather than with Little Walder? Something seems off.

@victormello5536

7 жыл бұрын

This is what I think: Allowing Big Walder to live makes it easier to throw the Manderlys and Freys against each other. If psycho Ramsay gave Hosteen his nephew's corpse and was like "the Manderlys did it", Hosteen probably wouldn't have bought it. Hosteen believes Big Walder not only because of his hatred for Wyman and the other Manderlys, but also because the accusations are coming from another Frey (Big Walder). As for what's in it for Big Walder, I'm guessing after he witnessed his much stronger and imposing cousin get butchered by Ramsay, he thought it would be in his best interest to stay alive and not get murdered as well. It was probably the threats. Also, sacrificing Freys might also be in his best interest, given they could also be ahead of him in the line of succession. He probably didn't tell anyone [if he did, the person he told this to would have probably refused to go out there (for good reason) and stirred up some undesired shit]. Luton being killed in the same place and at the same time as Little Walder would have been very suspicious, maybe even for a dumbass like Hosteen. Ramsay needed an excuse to kill Luton. Luton being fatally wounded in a heated scuffle isn't nearly as suspicious to the people watching, I believe, and it serves as an excuse. Why let him be around other people? Necessary risk? He probably threatened him as well, so he was probably pretty confident it would have taken him more than five minutes to tell someone. That's what I think, anyway.

I am not convinced about Luton being responsible either (though not convinced that it wasn't him either). But I do think that Ramsay giving the order makes sense. Wanting the Dreadfort is not only a practical matter for him. He obviously has some deep issues about his illegitimacy, and a fixation with wanting to be the official heir. I don't know if he plans to usurp his father yet, but I am certain than he plans to get rid of Fat Walda's child. Considering that the Freys support Roose through Fat Walda, they would obviously be opposed to that and pose a huge problem. It makes sense for him to try to get rid of them, or at least to strain their loyalty to his father and Fat Walda as much as possible.

For Luton. I think it could be the case that he's the one that tattled on Ramsey. Roose stated a belief that Ramsey's bastards aren't really his men. Ramsey did a stupid thing by killing Walder. Luton told Roose. Thus the argument. Ramsey instigates the fight. Gets Luton in the middle of it for revenge. Sends a message to his father.

Preston, a question about the North: Wouldn't it be more fitting for GRRM to make all the squabble about "who's ruling the north" to be irrelevant. They barely have any food at all and they're in for the winter of winters. There won't be anyone left if they stay. Thus it's an irrelevant question to ask, whom rules.

Joe Hunter fair point. I went back and listened to some, and it was really cool to hear P.J. thinking in real time. And the Red Team guy really isn't bad at all, he's just more animated than I'd like from my typical GoT pundits. He's like the wacky morning DJ on Rockin' Hot Kiss 99.8 Hot Kiss FM, whereas Preston is straight fuckin' business.

nice video love the intro song!

Finally. Thanks Preston

Hell of a fight scene

God damn that intro is so great

*sees Preston theory upload*

Just the video to get me through a hospital stay.

eyyy I appreciate I know it's hard to come up with good ideas. good looks on doing those podcast

Regarding Roose sending out the Freys and the Manderlys, I wouldn't say he's "ejecting" them from Winterfell and hoping they all die in the snow. His priority is still Stannis, so he should be sending them out with the intent of defeating the Baratheon forces. I get that his hands are somewhat tied by Ramsay's murderous subplot, but if his closest allies the Freys have to get out there, and their obvious sworn enemies the Manderlys also have to get out there - why not send other houses too, or his own men? He needs to assure that Stannis is crushed, and also to keep the Freys from being backstabbed by the Manderlys... but he's doing neither! It's kind of telegraphed that the Manderlys will switch sides, assuring Stannis's victory at the lake, and destroying the Frey forces. Why would Roose ever risk such a disastrous outcome? Ramsay murdering Little Walder hasn't tied his hands _that_ badly.

Thanks Preston!

With most of GRRM's characters representing something: a struggle, a passion, etc. What do you think GRRM intends with Stannis?

"Stannis is pure iron, black and hard and strong, yes, but brittle, the way iron gets. He'll break before he bends." A clue, perhaps...

Part of Stannis' arc is Donal Noye was wrong in the 'metal' assessment. Robert was actually iron and rusted when he wasn't beaten into a plow, to mix metaphors..

Stannis is sneakier than an old stump like Noye can imagine.

He might have been right about Renly, the least developed Baratheon, though

@@MRCKify The least developed - yet likely the best ruler of the bushel.

Ramsay wants the Dreadfort for the same reason that Theon wanted Winterfell. It was what he could never have, and he felt it was owed to him.

I dozed off halfway through, then Frey in the Snow Part 1 played right after, woke up 5 minutes into that and didn't notice for a while hahaha.

You do such get work, love the videos(even if I may not agree with 100% of what you believe) I believe if even if I personally do not believe it, hearing other sides to something is always great(especially when the person is so knowledgeable.)

Its less about belief and than keeping an open mind while theorizing analytically about subtle relationships between overlooked details and anticipating twists on the horizon of the narrative with context to see the stories within the story below the surface.

Max Power Most of the time when I watch a Preston video I'm waiting for him to say something completely.oulandish and I just ditch the theory by then. But some theories of his, like this one, work extremely well within what's written. As an example I can point out the Dornish master plan series. I stopped watching after he started spouting the glass candle shit, but the stuff before it was pretty great.

Every genius has a little madness in them...lol That's why I said I don't always agree with what is said, but it's cool to hear theories I would never think of.

Some explanations are quite difficult to believe. First, make the great hall roof colapse is far more difficult do the same in the stable because of the height and the number of people 24/7 inside the great hall. Secondly, missing swords just mean that "someone" removed them. Not Bran and his brother. Moreover, 2 soldiers were with Lady Dustin when she went to the crypt (and therefore know where the entrance is). Apart from that, it's seems obvious that Ramsay kill the Frey. He is the only one with a real reason to do so. (Sorry for bad english)

i honestly doubt that the northern lords would fight alongside the Frey's even if it was to dispose of the Boltons. but otherwise great video

Thank You Preston

That intro is godly

man that sucks. I was hoping this would be a longer set of videos. the northern plots are by far the best stories in ADwD. great job as always though.

Why would they need an excuse to send them out, it's Roose's right to send them out to battle. Also it doesn't take long for snow to melt, the time from the Maester's tower to the Hall should do it
