History WMG / ASongOfIceAndFireCross

And so the cycle repeats itself, and once again humanity will have a serious choice to make: link the fire one more time, thus postponing the Age of Dark, or giving in to the Night King, who acts out in the name of the Furtive Pygmy. Only difference is, now the Dark Soul has assumed the form of cold for some reason. This might seem like a flaw in the theory, but maybe not. Maybe this is what happens when the Dark Soul also loses its strength, its true essence. Just like the Light Soul becomes dim and weak, the Dark Soul grows colder and colder until the Abyss is not a sea of shadows anymore, but of ice. Or maybe this was its true nature all along, and now Humanity is more powerful than ever.

* Daenerys dragons awoke because the Lord Souls are failing again, and you know Everlasting sons of guns love that;

* Some undead humans figured out a way brand people they deem worthy of immortality with the Dark Sign, or whom may need it at a certain point for important roles, like what Thoros did with Beric (and Mel to Jon in the series);

Much like how the conquest is based around William the Conqueror, the Dance of the Dragons is based on the Anarchy and of course the current set of books is the War of the Roses, the next detailed point in history will be inspired from the various revolutions and questioning of the monarch itself. Mainly the French and American Revolution. The Americas would be represented by "Northyros", and the religious reformation will be the basis for a lot of the stories between it and A Song Of Ice And Fire.

[[WMG: George R. R. Martian does NOT hate his characters and his fans. He's an obsessive fan of ''Literature/TheArtOfWar'']]

[[OvertookTheManga George knew the show would wrap up before he's finished]], and reveal one of the biggest secrets-the parentage of Jon Snow. Unless he hasn't even decided it for himself, he's at risk of Jon Snow's parentage being a CaptainObviousReveal. And if he changes it to be a case of NotHisSled, it'll come off as a ShockingSwerve instead. [[TakeAThirdOption He found two alternatives]]. The first is that the it won't be focused on the reveal [[spoiler:that Jon is Lyanna and Rhaegar's son]], but instead the outcome. To keep readers on their toes and because of how the two continuities have diverged, it'll go in a completely different route with how the reveal affects everyone. Other alternative? Jon's parents will be different in the books than in the show. If the other popular theory that Ned and Ashara are Jon's parents is true, then it could mean [[AdaptedOut Ashara's omission]] and the Daynes being much less involved in the show might be intentional to conceal that secret.

He will reveal himself to the few main surviving characters at the end, and that he orchestrated their entire world to be as interesting as possible for an unseen audience not knowing that what they're reading about is actually happening. Obviously, these characters are freaked out by this revelation as they're forced to board Varys's helicopter that takes them back to Earth. Perhaps there's another Westeros for the TV show, where everything is recorded and broadcast, like The Hunger Games.

[[WMG: ''TheRoad'' is a distant future sequel to A Song of Ice and Fire.]]

[[WMG: Sam is an {{Expy}} of George R.R. Martin]]

* Sam seems more like an Expy of [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Samwise Gamgee]] than anything.

** Unlikely, given that GRRM has a pretty obvious Arthur {{Expy}} in Ser Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning.

[[WMG: Dolorous Edd is an alternate universe [[SayonaraZetsubouSensei Nozomu Itoshiki]]]]

The One Ring = The Iron Throne

[[WMG: At the end of the series, Khaleesi will marry Jack Sparrow from ''PiratesOfTheCaribbean.'']]

Nazghuls = Dragons\\

Winter is satire, but again slightly different than our definition, it isn't funny but rather social critique, like dystopian stories where you can mock the social order but have no real chance of defeating it. Which doesn't bode well for book 6.

!! These are Wild Mass Guesses for ''ASongOfIceAndFire'' which cover meta-theories and theories about crossovers with other works of fiction or mythology

* George was searching for historical mercenary groups and came upon the janisseries. He took the most famous, Gjergj Kastriot and Vlad Tepes and mashed them. Kastrot by the way wore a goat head helmet and his traditional garb was incorporated with a link of coins. He rode under false pretenses in a castle and took control of it. The castle was atop the peak of a mountain above the "vale" next to a stream said to be the tears of a maiden, but that's another thing.

* Sam seems more like an Expy of [[Literature/LordOfTheRings Samwise Gamgee]] than anything.

[[WMG: There is a world in which [[DowntonAbbey Violet Crawley]] and Olenna Redwyn-Tyrell have met.]]

[[WMG: Several Series/HarryPotter and Series/DowntonAbbey characters ended up in Westeros after the series ended]]

* ...by a kindergarten teacher in modern-day America named Edward Snow. In his classroom, he has this really comfortable armchair that all his students love. That day, a whole bunch of kids want to sit there at the same time. Edward explains that they have to take turns, but the kids refuse, and the whole thing devolves into a mess of hitting, shoving, yelling, crying, and screaming. That night, exhausted from the armchair mess, Edward dreams about it--except now all the kids who wanted to sit in the armchair are grown lords and ladies claiming to be the heirs to an Iron Throne in a fantasy land called Westeros. The last chapter will be Edward's POV, and he will wake up to his alarm, mutter "What a weird dream," get out of bed, and proceed with his morning. The last sentence will be something like, "He got in his car and readied himself for another day of armchair-wanting madness."

* The landmasses are bigger because the gourmet meteor hit earth and started growing around it. The sunset lands are the gourmet world. Did you think the long-winded description of food was was a coincidence!? This would make the Others evil ice cream.

* Theon will tell how he escaped by summoning a shadow baby that opened the gates of Winterfell like he used to open the bodices of poor serving wenches with a cry of arrivedeci, the shadow is called Missing Sticky Fingers. Meanwhile at the wall Mel will don a top hat made of patchface's erm face and teach Jon how to use the power of the ultimate fire, the sun, to face the Others by sending ripples throw his kingsblood. At the same time Jon and Jojen start to show a star birthmark on the shoulder.

* It's actually the 629th layer of the Abyss, which explains the [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CrapsackWorld a lot about the setting]].
