GOT 4


Bran has a dream that he can walk again, causing him much more despair once he awaken and realizes he is still paralyzed. Within his dream he sees yet another crow but this time the crow has 3 eyes instead of one. The crow is a warning of something coming but we still aren’t sure what exactly is coming yet and the three eyes are still a mystery. Perhaps there is a foreshadow when Bran visits the wall where he is given a sketch by Tyrion. This shows the theme of cruelty towards those who are weak being broken. As Tyrion is a dwarf himself he normally is blunt and honest, which comes off as harsh. Yet with this photo Robb doesn’t understand why anyone would be nice to the King’s cripple son. This theme is also apparent when Viserys is invited to dine with his sister Dany. Realizing he can’t fight the Dothraki he takes it out on her, utterly forgetting that she is now one of them too. He calls her vulgar names and claims she’s awoken the dragon, then slaps her. Taking advantage of the “weak” since she is his younger sister. Finally Dany stands up for herself and hits him in the face with a belt, exclaiming, "The next time you raise a hand to me will be the last time you have hands," leaving Viserys in shock. It is then she realizes her brother will never be able to take back the seven kingdoms and is never able to lead an army. This reverses the role of the weak and puts Dany on top.
