I think a bigger issue is rising here and that's just the one of where the GM involvement ends and the player freedom begins. What we have to realize is that even though it's a sandbox game it has to have a precedent set that determines the end point of the story in the novels and HBO series that way we can move on and direct a new plot line in the 'modern day' if you will. I believe that [@MrDidact] chose to begin the roleplay in such a political state with only the best interests of the players and the game as a whole at heart. The only reason I suggest Shireen remain dead is because of the thematic importance of her death in the overall narrative. It shows the desperation of defeating the long night and that nobody is safe from the cruelty perpetrated by mankind. Keeping her alive would really take away from the overall impact of death in the story in my opinion. However I think a resurrection would also be thematically appropriate because it would be a testament to the fortitude and spirit and the righteousness of those who stood against the white walkers. I was suggested she be sacrificed and then resurrected shortly after, not well into her adulthood. More as something that could be used as a part of the characters distant history that would no doubt influence her way of thinking and others perception of her. Anyway I hope there's no tension here and I hate to see someone turn away interest :( in the end it is Didact's call, but I think resurrection is the best route. I hope something can be worked out to get you to stay, [@Gowi].
