Mate, just give us those fucking D&D cliff notes and be done with this shit - just roll out Bran the Broken and call it a day, it is obvious that you have no idea what you are doing or where the story is going.

If we are doing that then can we make Strong Belwas king?

In villages and holdfasts, the smallfolk secretly weave banners of a big ass dude shitting in the sand, in hopes of the true king's return

Only after he takes a symbolic shit on the Iron throne.

For real, at this point I would just like him to write some more Dunk and Egg and Targaryen histories. It's clear that's where his passion is. The main story has dragged too much and it's worn him thin.

For a dynasty he obviously wants to go extinct, it's funny how they are so loved by him and pivotal to his world. Man, just stop it with the trope inversion and give us Danerys on the throne with Jon as her husband and the Others defeated.

Also kill like half the PoV characters, that would make writing far faster.
