Would the name of that meteor be heart failure and nebraska  is code for GRRM?

[Loud Whispers]

Yes, one of Theon's uncles is raiding shit there. Brandon 'the Shipwright' Stark led a fleet there, but never returned, which made his son and successor burn all the remaining ships in his grief, hence the North not having a fleet.

Victarion went East to Essos to burnraidpillage and form the Protestant reformed Drowned-fire God church.

This suggests that there is a whole lot more North, like an Antartica of North, a whole lot more Essos to Essos and if there is a West, it's too far away for their galleys to reach. Possible flat world. Or turtle.

Though then again, it could just be that in all these hundreds of years Bran found a giant continent and built the united states of Branmerica, biding his time to rain glorious freedom on the Westerosi people.

There is stuff to the East not shown in the maps, which only goes as far as Qarth I think. The places are only mentioned as the origin of exotic stuff though.

Melisandre would never forsake Stannis, she firmly believes Stannis to be the hero.

In all sadness, it's much more likely that Stannis is the Great Other and Jon Snow is the prophesied Hero [though I personally still support the theory of three Targy heroes]

I like Stannis a lot tbh. I'd like him to get a badass heroic out in the end- I dont think an outright happy ending is possible for him, but a bittersweet one should be.

The most complete official map can be found in The Lands of Ice and Fire. The scans online aren't that clear, but there are clearer maps based on it. So we can see a little further than Qarth.

While we're at maps, I'm just going to post those twos.

I really like the Westeros one. ,Been my constant companion while reading the book.

Funnily enough I almost posted that world map. They were originally uploaded onto deviant art under the name Other-in-Law, but since then the account has been deleted and Other-in-Law had them taken down from a few other sites. I managed, I think, to track down high resolution copies of everything, but it's a real shame nothing new will be released; Most of the major cities have maps save notably for Winterfell. I could upload them if there is interest?

[Sheb]

Please do.

[Max White]

If you do, and they are reasonable in size, I will use them for the first post image for the remaining weeks. 

[Vattic]

Here you go. Oh and be warned: there are spoilers on the maps, but you might not know what you're looking at until you've read / watched far enough.

[Sheb]

Thank you, they'll accompany me on my readings.

Reaction video of the first person to READ the Red Wedding.

I would have experienced this is 2005, but I was recommended the series by my writing group, and they were specifically looking for my reaction to it...

[XXSockXX]

I've seen a clip of GRRM watching reaction clips from show viewers and saying "So this is why your nerd friends were upset 13 years ago." 

[Sheb]

Ahah, my reading finally caught up with the show! I'll spoil you all! Alll! Tyrion dies in the next episode! Sandor Clegane marry Arya! Jon Snow decide fighting is too hard and become an innkeeps! Bran actually do something worth watching! Mouahahahaha! All of you, all of you I will spoil! 

[XXSockXX]

Liar! Everyone died early in Book 4 and it's only descriptions of desolate corpse-ridden landscapes since then. Eh, oops, spoilers...
