The Blood Wedding has been discussed many times, and leaving aside the political factors and conspiracies behind it, the bloody massacre established the fact that George W. Bush was the only one who had been murdered. R· R. Martin is indeed a master at manipulating the feelings of his readers. Among those who died, perhaps the most lamentable is the "Young Wolf Lord" Robb Stark (although there is an element of his own death), and today I intend to talk about a few sadistic truths about him from another perspective.
Note: The content discussed in this article is mainly based on the work of George W. Bush. R· R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series of novels and his public remarks are somewhat different from HBO's television series.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" > Robb may have survived in the gray wind for some time through the wolf spirit</h1>
Wolf spirits (also translated as "shape-shifters") are humans who are able to invade the consciousness of animals or other people and control their behavior. This ability is mainly reflected in Bran Stark in the series, but this does not mean that this is a unique ability of Bran, and many ancestors who believe in the Old God have this ability (such as Orel, the wild man who controls the eagle in the series).
It's just that people south of the Great Wall are accustomed to settled farming and no longer need to deal with wild animals all day, so wolf spirits are naturally relatively rare. Of course, the Stark kids who spend all day with the Ice Wolves are a very rare exception.
The author has previously written an article to analyze the reasons why these wolf cubs were "accidentally" found, interested friends can go to see, here will not be repeated.
In short, the appearance of wolf spirits in the Stark family with ancestor blood is not a rare thing (their ancestors have produced several wolf spirits), Bran is not the only one among several children, the original book at least depicts Arya and Jon Snow doing "wolf dreams", and Jon even directly through the perspective of white spirits to secretly spy on the movements of the savage team.
The same thing happened to Robb Stark: it was through Grey Wind's reconnaissance that Robb was able to lead his cavalry to avoid the Lannisters' raid on Rush City and successfully capture Jaime Lannister in the Whispering Forest. Moreover, when Robb suppresses his subordinates or shows his strength to the outside world, the gray wind can also roar and clench his teeth just right, which has long exceeded the tacit understanding between ordinary pets and owners, so Robb is undoubtedly a wolf spirit.
Let's look at what happens if a wolf spirit dies when it is attached to an animal. Or the example of oryel the wildling, who was using his eagle to scout the night's watchman rangers. In order to protect his brothers in the Night's Watch, Jon Snow had no choice but to kill the other party. At this time, Orel's residual consciousness in the eagle's body made it have a strong hatred for Snow, and it constantly attacked Snow and left several scars on his face with its claws. It can be seen that the wolf spirit can indeed live in some way through the body of its own possessed animal after death, so Robb Stark also has a good chance to do so, right?
At the Blood Wedding, Robb Stark was stabbed in the heart with a dagger by Luce Bolton, and the last words he shouted before he died were only two words, "Gray Wind." Not his own mother Caitlin, not his new wife Jenny, but "Gray Wind", which is strange in itself, isn't it? Before a person dies, he thinks not of the people closest to him but of his own pets, unless he has a special reason: to be possessed by Gray Wind, to return to the wedding scene and kill all Frey and Bolton, and to avenge his family. But unfortunately, the grey wind tied to the stable did not cause more damage before it was killed by the soldiers of the Frey family, so did Robb die twice?
If the words Robb shouted before he died are not conclusive evidence, let's look at the death of Jon Snow. He was also betrayed and stabbed in the key part, and at the moment of his fall, Jon's last words were "Ghost". Although Jon is not yet resurrected in the original book, no matter how he returns to this world, many details suggest that Snow will live in Bai Ling's body for at least a period of time until his body is ready to re-accept him.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="26" > Sir Robert Sturgeon</h1>
But dying twice wasn't what Robb Stark was most lamented about, and another theory about him might have been even more debilitating: Robb's corpse (or rather, a skull) could have been used by Coburn on the Magic Mountain.
I believe that the "Magic Mountain" Sir Gregor Clegane does not need too much introduction, and it is similar to the episode, "Magic Mountain" was seriously injured by the opponent's poisoned spear in the competition with the "Red Viper" Oberon Martell. Soon after, Coburn was licensed to experiment with his body, creating the walking dead-like Sir Ser Robert Strong.
The other members of the Imperial Guard claimed that their new brother did not eat or drink, did not need to sleep or even go to the toilet. He never took off his armor, and no one saw him take off his mask. He never spoke, according to Coburn, because he made a silent oath before God that he would never speak unless Queen Cersei's grievances were clarified and there was no more sin in Westeros.
At first, I wondered why the resurrected "Magic Mountain" was named "Robert". The names Robb and Robert are cognate, the former can be seen as shorthand for the latter, and Robb was named by Ned after Robert Baratheon during the Usurper War, so the two are basically the same name.
This actually involves a difference between the original and the series. In the original book, in order to appease the emotions of the Dornes, Tywin Lannister sent the heads of the murderers of Ilia Martell and Oberon Martell, the "Magic Mountain", to Yangji City, and this plot in the episode was completely omitted.
Although many fans believe that the huge head sent by Tywin may not belong to the "Magic Mountain", the Dorne people are not fools and can fool around with a fake head. In addition, for Tywin, the "Magic Mountain" is just one of his many thugs, and he has long been seriously injured, and there is no need for him to risk further offending Dorne for a useless vassal.
So, if the head of the Magic Mountain had been sent to Yang Ji City, where did the head under Sir Robert Schung's helmet come from? Among the many "traitors" in King's Landing whose heads have been cut off, who can shock and humiliate their opponents to the greatest extent, so that all the princes can remember the phrase "Lannisters must pay their debts"? Who else but Robb Stark, the former "King of the North"?
Ned Stark's bones were ordered back to Runaways when Tyrion Lannister was the Hand of the King, and after the Blood Wedding, King Joffrey explicitly ordered Frey to send Robb's head to King's Landing (Tywin also needed to confirm Robb's death), so Arya would see the terrible scene of Frey tying Grey Wind's head to Robb's body.
Well, the interpretation of Robb Stark currently thinks so much, there is a chance to add, if you have different opinions welcome to give me @ Prancing Horse Tavern Small Hospitality Message, thanks for reading!
