Game of Thrones Chapter 34 (Eddard) Summary

Ned finds Littlefinger in a brothel. He sends Jory to fetch the horses while he speaks to Littlefinger. They leave the brothel and ride through the streets of King's landing. Suddenly, they are encountered by Jaime Lannister and several of his men. They surround Ned and Jaime tells Ned that he is looking for his brother. Ned openly reveals to Jaime that he had his brother taken to answer for his crimes. At first, Jaime allows Littlefinger to leave while he prepares to fight Ned, but then he decides to have Ned's men killed as a response to Ned arresting his brother. Ned attempts to save his men but is unsuccessful, and is injured in the fight. Ned returns to the castle with Littlefinger. This chapter is important to the story because it shows Jaime Lannister's reaction to his brother's arrest, and his emotions toward Ned. I chose this chapter because I really liked the drama of the fight that occurred, and I'm excited to find out what happens next.

Dany 409-419
In this chapter Dany eats a stallion heart, symbolic of the Dotharki to conceiving a boy. Dany prepares for this ceremony which shows she's taken this culture as her own. There's nothing she desires more than their approval. The ritual is finished the feast begins. Viserys barges in and insults the Dotharki. The khal tells him he will give him his crown of gold, the throws his madelion belt into a melting pot and pours the molten gold on the head of Viserys. Deny doesn't regard him as her brother, instead she refers to him as the boy who had been her brother. The Khal kills him and there is no bloodshed.

Catelyn

In this part of the book Catelyn has discovered that Tywin has an army at Casterly Rock. Also, at this part Catelyn is trying to get her sister to try to stop the trial by combat because he is more useful with his life put on trial instead of combat. Catelyn is getting tired of her sister being the way that she is. Tyrion does escape with his life with someone coming to his aide.

I feel like this is important due to the fact that Tyrion escapes with his life in this chapter. Also another important thing was that Tyrion gains another companion that helps him along his path. Without this companion he would most likely die by people or the elements. We also see further distance between the sisters starting to fight and disagree.

Eddard X

During this chapter, Ned is dreaming of a "showdown" 7 against 3. Everyone ends up dying but Ned and Reed. Ned then awakes from his dream when he was making a promise to his dying sister Lyanna after the battle. King Robert demands that Ned sees him the moment he wakes up. Ned complains that he is too weak from being asleep the past 6 days and says he'll be pleased if the King would join him in his room. Catelyn had taken over the role of the hand of King for Ned since he has been in bed the past 6 days. The King also slaps Cersi and tells her she should be happy to wear the mark that he has left upon her face. I feel like this Chapter is important because it shows some of the power and characteristics of the King.

Daenerys (489-500)

     Daenerys is faced with the task of eating a raw horse heart at the Dathraki ceremony that will determine her babies future. She successfully eats the heart, and names her SON Rhaego. It was prophecied that her son will be the stallion that mounts the world, and bring all the khalsars together. In the midst of the celebration, Viserys threatens to cut out Daenerys child. Drogo didn't appreciate that at all, but as promised gives Viserys his "crown of gold"; dumping a heaping pot of molten hold onto his head and thus killing him! 

      I like this chapter because we see Daenerys becoming even more of a queen, as she blessed the Khal with a son. We also see her and Drogo falling in LOVE! So sweet. And finally, I was quite pleased that Viserys died. He was terrible. 

      The importance on this chapter is undeniable. Viserys is now gone, making Daenerys son the next in line to overthrow the 7 kingdoms. If the prophesy is true, than Rhaego will be a great ruler and his enemies will tremble. So look out 7 kingdoms! 

Tyrion

In his cell which only has three walls and a side that opens up to a 600 foot drop that has a slight downward slope towards the cliff, tyrion is continuously torments by Mord. Tyrion keeps thinking about how he wished he didn't have such a loud mouth. Tyrion then thinks that since his loud mouth got him in the dungeon that surly it could also get him out. Tyrion then bribes Mord by telling him that he will share some gold with him, to go to Lysa and tell her that Tyrion would like to confes for his crimes which is exactly what Lysa wanted. Lysa is then pissed because Tyrion is confessing to little things such as whoring and then demands for a trial. Lysa then asks if tyrion has someone who will step up in his behalf. Bronn then comes forwards and says that he will stand infront of tyrion. This chapter brings numerous questions to the surface. Why did Lysa claim that tyrion was HER  prisoner and that he will not be harmed? Also I wondered about the importance of the Blue Sky, I think the writing was about the cliff and the blue sky you would be falling through but why did the author emphasize the BLUE? Also why did Bronn stand for Tyrion?

Eddard's Chapter(480)

In this chapter Ned is still healing from his broken leg. Littlefinger visits him in his bedchamber. The book that Jon Arryn was reading gets mentioned and then meets Cersei at the gods wood. He then calls her out by confirming that her children are by Jaime. He discovers that's why Bran got pushed out the window. He then tells her to leave for the free cities with her family because he plans to tell Robert.

I feel this is an important chapter because for one it uncovers a lot of information that was unknown to the readers up until now. Also she says "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die." This feels ominous to me so I feel like something will probably happen later on but to who is uncertian.
