Ok, I have a question. What rendition of events are we running in here? I'm just curious since I've been pulling a lot of my information from the ASOIAF book rendition, but it was said earlier that Theon made the journey to Torrhen's square with one ship, which is the show version of events. In the books, Theon sends Dagmer Cleftjaw with all but one of his ships to Torrhen's Square while he sails one to Winterfell. My information that it would not take so long to make the journey, but obviously it's different for different renditions. it would be worth noting that in this version of events, Theon's Ironborn destroys the Wild Hares, a group of Northern lancers, at Torrhen's Square, and also slays Benfred Tallhart.

[@agentmanatee] you mentioned earlier that you didn't like the Bear Island slaughter. Do you mind telling me what about it you didn't like? I am not particularly happy with the writing in that post, and criticism is more than welcome in order to help improve my writing. If it's the way it was done that you don't like, then I have done my job. It was not meant to be glorious or honourable, it was meant to be swift and brutal. The Mormonts were caught off-guard and severely outnumbered; there wouldn't have been a whole lot they could have done differently. Still, comments are more than welcome and I am happy to change my post to suit what people want.

One a side note, I found out last night that there are two Valyrian steel swords in the Iron Islands. Nightfall is in the possession of House Harlaw, while Red Rain is in the possession of House Drumm. Who would have thought, eh? But it raised the question, what about the other Valyrian Steel weapons in Westeros that have been lost? Is there any chance of them having been found in the last 200 years? I mean, swords like Brightroar, Truth, Vigilance, Dark Sister and Lamentation have been lost for a long time, but it's not entirely impossible that they could have been found in the last 200 years.
