- She then says, Nope, I'm keeping my troops here to consolidate my hold on the South as soon as the Golden Company arrives.
I genuinely can't see a logical thread, but rather than just bashing the writing, I'll give the collective shadow writers here a chance to make sense of it.
And if you can do that, we can move on to the entire Sansa & Arya plotline, which has me similarly baffled. |
You are like the Sansa from earlier seasons. I'm happy for you that you haven't acquired much personal experience with very selfish and manipulative people in highly political situations.
All makes perfect sense to me though...
