A Storm of Swords * 23. Arya IV *Discuss only this chapter and anything prior

A lot of these chapters have too many songs in them. Not my cup of tea really.

The songs are funny. Lol

Hahaha, yes really!

I enjoyed some of them!

thoughts while reading:

I kind of like hearing all these ways that Lord Beric almost died.
"I dreamt I saw a shadow with a burning heart butchering a golden stag, aye." < Renly and Stannis!
"I dreamt of a man without a face, waiting on a bridge that swayed and swung. On his shoulder perched a drowned crow with seaweed hanging from his wings." < not so sure about this one...
"I dreamt of a roaring river and a woman that was a fish. Dead she drifted, with red tears on her cheeks, but when her eyes did open, oh, I woke from terror." < not sure of this one either...

It would have been nice to see one of Arya's wolf dreams on the show..

Brianna about the 2nd and 3rd quote, you will find out where they refer to towards the end of the book.

(view spoiler)[I assume the first quote is about Balon and the other one about Catelyn (aka Lady Stoneheart), but I wonder who the drowned crow is. (hide spoiler)]

I went back again to the quote it says, a man without a face, this strongly hints on the faceless man so

Please open the spoiler only if you have watched season 6..

(view spoiler)[Balon Greyjoy as shown in season 6 dies on the bridge swaying and swinging but he is pushed by Euron Greyjoy, though they don't mention in the book, I assume that Euron Greyjoy hired faceless men to do the deed. About the crow, Euron is also known as Crow's eye, looked it up on the wiki :) (hide spoiler)]

I was thinking of it being a faceless man as well and in regards to your spoiler→ definitely makes sense!
