But the point is, they were introduced at least, and not brought in from left field. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 19/08/2011 11:36:41 AM
seriously how much input did we have on Bloodraven prior to the Dunk and Egg novels and ASoS?

Same thing with the tale of Bale the Bard, which was relevant for Bale was a hint on Abel.

I could also make the same point of one of the sand snakes.


That's the problem I have with Aegon's story. THAT seems completely unanticipated or unforeshadowed, and not the way the introduction of other new elements has been handled.

As it is, there WERE details given and set up established to give Bloodraven a place in the SoI&F world, rather than make him a completely new character or additional element.

Bran didn't recognize him because his face is always covered - 18/08/2011 04:28:55 AM 1405 Views
If his face is always covered, how can you say you know who he is? - 18/08/2011 12:14:18 PM 1323 Views
I don't think anyone's saying they know who he is. - 18/08/2011 02:42:32 PM 1346 Views

Well, it was sort of foreshadowed (in hindsight). - 19/08/2011 01:29:48 PM 1432 Views
