[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remember how when the night King touched Bran and that allowed the king to enter the cave of the three eyed Raven? Does this mean that when Bran crosses the wall the night King will be able to pass?[/quote]

Oooooooo, hadn't thought of this.  I did ponder how they will get past the wall when Benjen left Meera and Bran at the tree and talked to them about how the dead could not pass the Wall, but didn't think of this loophole.[/quote]

It kind of bugs me that this didn't come up earlier.  I mean, the children of the forest should've known that (as well as the former three-eyed raven).

They should've told Bran about being touched by the dude.  It seems like a vital piece of information to leave out.

I think the entire children of the forest/bran story line is the one filled with the most holes.  I mean, if the dead can't get past the wall, then there never was a problem.  But now there is?  I mean, Bran's visions led him beyond the wall, but if his going beyond the wall and getting touched by the night king is what enables the army of the dead to invade, then Bran isn't the solution and wasn't all along.  He's the problem.

Unless the three-eyed raven and children of the forest wanted him to come out there because they want the night king to get beyond the wall.  But that doesn't add up either.

If the night kind knows bran going south of the wall will enable his army to go through it, then he wouldn't have come after bran -- unless he was driving him toward the wall.

I don't know.  There are too many holes with that story line.  It's the most irritating part of the series.[/quote]

In the books (which, let's face it, are the only thing that have internal logic, the show is great but whew, it goes off the rails a lot), there's a "Horn of Winter" that supposedly will bring the wall down if it's blown. There's a lot of fan speculation that it's the little, nondescript horn that the crows found near the fist of the First Men north of the wall (in the second season/second book). In the books, Mance claimed to have it, and it was supposedly burned with "his" body (Rattleshirt). But I think that was a red herring. There's also another fancy-dancy horn called Dragonbinder that Victarion has on his ship that he thinks will bind Dany's dragons but that COULD be the Horn of Winter.

[i]The Winds of Winter[/i] book has a picture of a horn on it, so I think it's pretty likely this is going to be a plot point soon.[/quote]
