It would be like Tywin to refuse to admit to anyone that he was cuckolded.

It would be like anyone near him to never admit that they were raped.  He would be the type to blame the victim.

It's actually likely that Euron Greyjoy had sailed that way.
I always assumed he had, until I reread the fourth book recently. Now that I think about it, it may have been Damphair at the kingsmoot that said that. Anyway, everyone there seemed think he had sailed east.

I found this speculative article about Robb's potential heir to be an interesting read :

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Is there any indication that Jeyne Westerling was aware that her mother was giving her a contraceptive and managed to avoid drinking it. Jayne is obviously loyal to Robb, her parents less so. The westerling boy also released greywind at the twins. So the squire and the young queen might still stay loyal to the north.

I just want to see if anybody bothers to ressurect robb while greywind's head is stitched onto his.

In more serious speculation (not my rather improbably Rhaegar=Mance speculation), What are the odds that Jon dies and is resurrected by Melisandre freeing him from his oath to the nights watch?

QuoteNight gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I really suspect someone to impregnate Jayne.
Probally not Robb, but someone, and say Robb did it.

A great episode, and I had to laugh during the medieval manscaping, but really Robb?

Really Robb? The Westerosi cities aren't walled?

He said towns.  I presume not every village is walled.

The cities are certainly walled.  But the majority of the population and, of course, the overwhelming number of farmers don't live in walled areas.
