Why is RICKON STARK such an IMPORTANT CHARACTER in the books 

Jon is undoubtedly the more sound choice, but I don‘t think the Starks will wage a civil war against themselves. Even if Jon found out about the fact that Robb made him next in line, he‘s not going to raise a claim against his own brother. At least, the Jon we know about won‘t do that.

The interesting thing is that in the show Rickon is 100% a warg. Or a greenseer at least. He has a dream about Ned's death in season one. In fact his gift is even stronger than Bran's at least in season one and sinse in the first seasons D&D cared about George's plan it makes me wander what it means

People tend to write him off because of his direwolfs name, but I’ve always believed he is the most important character in the north post Red wedding, he is the only stark who can continue the family even if he is the youngest, also his upbringing so far means that he will definitely be a formidable warrior, much like his uncle Brandon especially once you factor in the wolf’s blood which he seems to have the most of. If he doesn’t die in the long night which I don’t think he will since he’s too young to do any fighting, he will definitely be part of the stabilization of the realm afterwards, basically whatever war is fight for the throne after the whites are gone

He’s the last able bodied, true-born son of ned stark. If bran stays north of the wall or dies, then he stands to succeed his brother as king/warden of the north, especially if jon is confirmed as a secret targ and is revived.

Rickon is one of the characters with the most potential.

Rikkon , the boy left by his mother and sisters at 3. Was essentially raised by his wolf. Then killed as a hostage. Truly the saddest character.

as someone who started out as a show watcher, reading how the northern lords were handled in the books was a massive W. in the show alot of them seemed done with house stark so the book surprised me with this big northern conspicy plot

Technically, Jon could be recognized as King in the North, while Rickon still could become Lord of Winterfell.

The single most important Argument against the Northern Civil War in the Books is the Stark Children themself. Who we have left are Jon, Sansa, Arya, Bran and Rikkon. Bran will become a Godking of the Old Gods, so very unlikely that he will return in Person. Jon will most likely survive his assassination attempt by his Brothers. I know, I know his Injuries are proof against it, but we have Bran who survived a Fall from a very high Tower, which he shouldn't have by any means, not to forget that we don't hear that he had a Tube in his Mouth during his Coma, so the fluids which Maester Luwin and Catelyn forced down his Throat should have ended, at least partially, in his Lungs; which would have killed him. So if we can throw out scientific and medical Reasons with Bran at the very start of the Story, we can throw them out of the window with Jon. Don't let me start with Jaime and the loss of his Hand, seriously that Man should be Dead and not depressed! So don't tell me about Jon being Dead, the fact is: if we follow Scientific Reason then Bran should have died in Book One, Catelyn Stark would still be dead, Jaime would be dead, etc. So until we see a Corpse, Jon is alive. Seriously injured and probably in a Coma, but alive! Sansa will flee from the Vale and return to the North, probably to the Wall, because she knows Jon is there. Arya will return to the North probably after she encounters her Undead Mother in the Riverlands. AND Rikkon will return with Davos. But how will they recognize each other? Sansa will probably cut her Hair (GRRM has a thing with female Characters losing their Hair when they lose the protection of the Patriarchy) and has still dark Hair when she arrives in Castle Black, furthermore, she will be fourteen. Girls that Age change rapidly so it is unlikely that Jon, Rikkon or Arya will recognize her at first. Arya is probably Eleven or older when she returns, but she was nine when she left Winterfell, same Problem as Sansa she will have changed a lot! And now Rikkon was 3 at the start of this Series, THREE and is now FIVE. He won't have any Memories, aside from some very vague ideas, of his Family. He probably will know that his Mother had Red Hair and Blue Eyes, why? Because that's what everyone told him and us about her. He will know that his Father has grey Eyes, long dark brown Hair and a Long face, why? Again because that's what we and he are most likely hear from EVERYBODY when they describe Eddard Stark. And now Question: Who fits these Descriptions too? Jon Snow and Sansa Stark! Rikkon has no other Memories of his Family, other than probably Bran, than what EVERYBODY tells everybody about these Characters. And Rikkon is an abandoned Child, all he wants is his Family back, a Family he doesn't even remember. Even if he has Visions, that doesn't mean he remembers anyone of them. But shaggy Dog will remember them, because of Ghost. So Rikkon will trust his Direwolf and accept Jon and Sansa, when he reunites with his oldest Siblings, I think Sansa's red Hair will have partially grown back and the Color she used to dye her Hair will be outwashed at least partially. So even if some Lords want to honor Robbs Will, the siblings won't let them do that. By that Time Jon was nearly assassinated by his Nightswatch Borthers, Sansa was used, abused and forced to marry an enemy of her Family and not to mention that her Mothers Family was abusing her too, so none of these 3 will even think of doing something similar to their Siblings. Rikkon as Heir will probably threaten to behead everyone who even thinks of beheading Jon for Deserting the Nightswatch. Also the Nightswatch Brother will most likely tell everyone who wants to hear it that Jon was killed by them and resurrected by the Red Woman, why? It should be obvious they don't want him as their Lord Commander, for goodness sake, they tried to assassinate him, so telling everyone his Watch has ended is the easiest way out for everyone. Also as the Big Brother of the Warden of the North, who will most likely rule in the Wardens Name, they have someone who can help them more, than brooding Lord Commander Jon Snow. So Civil War in the North? Unlikely because of the Siblings desire to find their Home again, their safe and happy Place, which was their childhoodhome at Winterfell. All they want is going back to that Place, which is impossible, but they will find a new Home and start again, with each other.

Another interesting hint from the author: We never got to see the world from Robb Stark's POV. Also, we never got to see the world from Rickon Stark's POV. Arya, Sansa, Jon Snow and Brandon, we have their POVs, but never Robb's or Rickon's... Having read the first five books, I learnt one thing about the Song of Ice and Fire: NOTHING is a coincidence ;)

What’s different about Rifkin, is that he’s the only Stark child who lost both parents while very young, and never had their guidance and influence. He also experienced a lot of trauma, fear, & loss, & is essentially somewhat “wild” having been away from people, hiding with his wolf. He would be a different kind of Stark as he grew into a man. Would he be a good king? Or would he be so scarred & lacking in guidance and learning, that he would not? Jon would not attempt yo take the crown from Rickon, were it to come to that. He wouldn’t consider it honorable

That might've just been more a childs thinking, but Rickon said to Bran when he refused to say goodbye to Robb that "Noone comes back". Or it could be him having greenseer abilities as he hasn't seen any of his family members again.

I would think anything they do with him would be better than what the TV show did with him.

I'll never forgive D&D for what they did with the "Grand Northern conspiracy" plotline. 🤦🏾‍♂️ It was one of the most interesting things that happened in ADwD and it's probably gonna big for WoW too 🤔

HE IS GONNA BE REALLY IMPORTANT AND DIFERENT ON THE BOOKS

I feel like Arya's personality changes in seasons 7-8 is because she was portraying Rickon too

If he survives the conspiracy I think he might become the ‘evil’ Stark. Like he won’t play ball with Jon, Bran, Arya and/or Sansa. He (and his dire wolf which reflects him as a warg) is constantly described as wild and dangerous; plus the whole pack surviving winter when it sticks together is something he never had time to learn since his family basically abandoned him.

Wow. I didn't know this! Thanks for sharing and uploading such a beautiful rendering of the Starks!

Bro, Rickon is literally 5 years old at this point in the book. All these theories I hear about Rickon fighting or uniting the north are really dumb. He can only be a symbol to rally around at 5 years old. Do you know many 5 or 6 year olds? Most of them can't even speak a full sentence without stuttering their words 20x over. I seriously think people with these kind of theories have only seen the TV show and think Rickon is like 11years old. Also a Stark civil war is even dumber than Rickon fighting along side his wolf on a battlefield. If you think Jon would allow this then you clearly haven't been actually reading the books and don't know Jon at all.

I do like the civil war idea. Rickon being the most wolfish of the siblings lends credence to the idea that his cause would be just as wrathful. If Jon becomes the leader they would most likely fall under the rule of Stannis or Danny depending on where it happens in the timeline. This civil war not only being a battle of true blood vs the wishes of their king but it’s a battle for complete independence or safety in peace won at any cost. It’s so sad this story has a genuine chance of never being completed :(

The more I learn about how great the books are and what plans there were for Rickon the angrier I get as to how D &. D produced the tv show and how great it could’ve been. I’m interested in buying and reading the books but I’m not going to read them until the author finishes the last book.

Oh man! Just found your channel and love the name! Excited to catch up on your asoiaf content!

I'll meet you half way. The will legitimizes Jon. However, it doesn't name an heir, it designates Catelyn to choose an heir. Making Jon legit forces him into the line before going outside the immediate descendants of Ned. This is why her character needed to return. It's not just revenge, she has unfinished business. This is also why she wants Arya or Sansa. Rickon's narrative is foreshadowed in Sam's backstory by Dickon. It's either brilliant or clumsy, we'll see. To pull from real history, I would suggest a foundation in the Prince John and King Richard of Robinhood. Theon's narrative may also be dropping clues to the basic bones of Rickon's arc. Theon and Jaime have a weird parallel going on in the bones of their narratives. But it basically revolves around a unrecognizable heir showing up. Age rather than disfigurement will underpin it and why Shaggy needs to be there. The veiw of Jon by most readers is clouded by their expectations. I don't believe most grasp his real role, they just see a cliche hero. But he's a John not a Richard.

He is an important character in TV show as well but Dumb and Dumber know nothing about succession or hostages. He is the legit heir of house Stark. Not a cripple, not a bastard and not a girl. House Umber giving him the Boltons is stupidest thing ever written. They could easily betroth him with one of the Umber girl and rise against Boltons. They have a legit Stark heir. And Ramsey killing him, instead of holding as a trump card is even dumber idea. Don't forget his stupid death. No negotiation, no deal and Stupid Sansa easily gave up his brother make me hate her even more.

I’m ready for some Rickon POV chapters

I see two potential problems with this. First is that Rickon is like what? 4-5 years old? Even if he is crowned King he will need someone to take care of his realm before he can rule. In this case, if we also consider how unstable North is right now, there might be space for manipulation of the child. The second one is that there are still characters alive that have witnessed Robb choosing Jon as his heir. These character are also unaware of the fact that Rickon lives so there might actually be two different conspiracies in the North once Jon is resurrected in the books and returns South. One group wants Rickon the other Jon. There might be unwanted clash between them....unwanted, I mean for anyone who loves Starks as much as I do lol :D Regardless, I remember I once read that Dumb and Dumber wanted to exclude Rickon while writing the script for the first season but GRRM told them he had plans for Rickon. So he's definitely important.

I had the same thought about there being a northern civil war between Jon and Rickon, but it's hard to imagine Jon taking up and against his cousins. There's also the Flint who encountered Bran on his way north, who may be with Stannis' army now--even if a lord ignored Jon being legitimized, it'd be hard to ignore Bran, as he is older than Rickon. I don't see Rickon himself being critical to fighting the Others--he's just too young. But his tale may end up being a shaggy dog story--a long and winding take that leads nowhere. I suspect he'll play the role of a bit of a red herring for the northern lords and there will be some other resolution to the Northern conspiracies. Your video made me realize that there can't be a single grand northern conspiracy--because Manderly is supporting Rickon and the lords present for the reading of Robb's will would support Jon. Thus Manderly can't be conspiring with the Mormonts et al, because he hasn't been informed of Robb's will.

So tired of people thinking Rickon would have survived if he zigzagged. Sansa said it herself. He was dead the moment Ramsey got his hands on him. He was toying with Jon.

The sad thing is we will never know since GRRM is never going to finish the next book.

While the last few seasons of the show weren't as good as the early ones, I think Rickon's story ending abruptly may have been a note from George. A shaggydog story is a long winding tale that ultimately amounts to nothing, and George names Rickon's wolf this within a few pages of the old "wolf killed by a stag" foreshadowing that was very on the nose.

Dannerys has the dragons nukes but with warging they can control them

There's still his wolfs name lurking over his fate, though I hope it doesn't mean he just gets unceremoniously killed. And more smth like that he just doesn't become the Lord/King of Winterfell.

I think it’s relevant that you omitted that Jon was revealed a warg in Bran 1 when the fire wolves are found.

To paraphrase something Ayra said; "Dan and Dave are idiots !".

I cling into the hope that Rickon would be an Aegon V the Unlikely equivalant for the Starks.

When the show runners ran out of book material they really showed how bad they are at writing.

Pointed something else out. The wolf will prove the boys identity. Meanwhile sansas wolf is dead and her identity is in question and aryas wolf if wild and she doesn't know who she is...

What do you think of the Direwolf name theory? where the names of the Direwolves foreshadow the future of their owners. Rickon's Direwolf is named Shaggydog and I have heard that it may be tied into a Shaggydog story, or a story with an underwhelming ending... like the show.

Him dying cuz he wasn’t able to zig zag took me out😭😂

The fate of each Stark is tied to the name if their wolf. Sansa will be Lady of Winterfell. Arya is a warrior. Jon died and became a Ghost. Bran will bring the end of Winter. Robb was like a wind. And Rickon's story is much ado about nothing, a shaggy dog story.

I don't know if the title of the books is actually referring solely to the dragons. I would argue that it may be about the Lord of Light and the White Walkers, especially with the resurrection of Catelyn Stark, aka Lady Stoneheart, the rise of Stannis Baratheon, and the rise of dragons in the world all happening as the long winter begins.

Don't forget Sansa has a claim to Winterfell as well which could cause a war between the Vale and the North

no mention of the unicorns?

Rickon is there, Sansa is as well nearly in North, Arya is alive, Bran is alive. Jon is legit king made by Robb. Will there be war between Stark kids?

When the iron born attacked winterfell the obvious conclusion everyone came to was to split the blood line..take bran twards the wall and recon to the sea..if that was the safest way for the bloood line to live why was danny and her brother not split? If one person attacked both would die...maybe dannys brother was a fake because everytime a dornish bore a targareyn son thry had black hair..the only thing that makes me doubt griffs claim is the word play behind his name..

John renounced all future titles when he took the black. The only way this releases is if the wall comes down, and then he is destined to be king of the seven kingdoms, and Bran is next in line in the north. Rickon is destined to become the most powerful greenseer, akin to Garth the Green, and that is why he is on Skagoes to learn the magic that even Bloodraven does not know.

If you look up with a “shaggy dog” story is, and then look up the name of Rickon’s dire wolf, you’ll realize that Rickon will never be a king or even lord in this story.

Maybe he can be the northern version of Aegon V, the unlikely, but he will be traumatized like Aegon III... At this moment, his mother is Osha. If it wasn't her, he will be alone in the world. If he will Lord of Winterfell, just with a passage of time.

lil bro was slashing full grown Freys just because they wouldn’t leave him alone in book 2.

I agree that Rickon is the rallying figurehead for the North. BUT he is a child - five or six years old? He would have no memories of his family, who all changed beyond simple recognition. We don't actually know how much more 'free folk' he is, and how much he was told about his origins. It is possible he had to use a fake name all this time and might not even recognise being 'Rickon Stark'. Shaggydog is absolutely vital in proving his identity and claim. Otherwise we have another 'Young Griff' mistery in our hands. I also doubt he would play a role in actual war and battles considering he is itty bitty. He might act as a symbol but I cannot see him riding into battle on Shaggy or something. And I doubt Jon would ever go against his siblings. Especially after refusing Stannis' offer of being Lord Stark. And if he wants the North lead by a adult man to organise defences against the Walkers, he might agree a compromise and become King Regent or Lord Protector. It happened in real history, when there was a boy-king or a Queen, someone would be named Lord Protector to act as the military leader. If anything, I would sooner bet on Littlefinger using Sansa to claim the North "on Rickon's behalf" and then try to drive a wedge between the siblings. Maybe pushing for Sansa to be the Regent and then trying to takeover? I would really lough if the 3 sibilings found themselves in cross fire of plots and schemes and agreed without others input to make things work. Rickon would be King in the North. He is Robb's true born brother and if Robb had known he was alive he would've named Rickon his heir ahead of Jon. Jon becomes the Lord Protector and has point in war matters. Sansa takes on the title of Lady of Winterfell. She runs point in management and organisation of the Castle. Together they act as Rickon's co-regents? Of course, there is still room for a strife. Lords who plotted to put Rickon on the throne might want a Regency Council, so they have more power and say. What's the point of a boy-king if you cannot mold him? And there is still the matter of succession. Who is Rickon's heir? He is a boy and it will be many years before he can even try to sire children. Robb wanted to explicitly disinherit Sansa. But things are different now. So, does she come next? Or Jon? And how Arya fits into this?

Wyman Manderly needs to get way more love than he receives.

All I have to say is that the theory about Rickon just being a ‘shaggy dog’ story (as is potentially signalled by his direwolf’s name) better NOT be true 😒 please, *anything* but that ignominious end to his storyline

Ummm he is clearly the Prince that was Promised

Oh, sweet summer child: GRRM will *never* finish the books!

If onion knight found him and rise him he becomes stannis supporter

They really did Rickon dirty on the show.

Now i know its better to read the Book than the actual show that didn't follow whats in the book.

I believe he's going to be John's vessel. Bran can possesse people why can't John?

Rickon is the strongest contender, if a couple of things happen. One, Rob's wife, Jeyne Westerling isn't pregnant (remember, she didn't die in the books and George does nothing coincidentally). Two, the will gets North and is rejected by other Northern lords( Unfortunately, bastards are frowned upon in Westeros). Three, Jon survived, is still human and refuses to dispossess his cousins( Book Jon desires to be lord of Winterfell but doesn't want to take it from Sansa. However lords loyal to Rob's will might push him to). Four, Sansa survives little finger but isn't going along with his plans to marry Harry the heir to make him lord of Winterfell. Five, Bran is found, but has ascended into godhood and has lost all interest in rulling. Six, Stannis doesn't suddenly decide he'd rather be king of the North. My guess is, Rickon will complicate the succession for a while, but he will ultimately die a glorious death. I believe the show succession will be the book succession. Sansa will rule the North, either as regent or in her own right, kinda like Elizabeth 1. Either way, the courtly games have moved North. I can't wait to see it play out in the books, because it's deliciously complicated and full of potential plots and conspiracies.

What if he becomes 2nd Theon Stark when he comes to age and support stannis claim after his death and help stannis daughter or die in that attempt by jon snow it will be great

No one ever wants a child king. If they had any sense they’d back Jon, regardless of Robby’s wishes. But in any case, it’s all a moot point as we’ll never see the book published.

I think the name of Rickon’s direwolf says it all.

what about the "shaggy dog" trope? his direwolf is literally named shaggydog and the direwolves represent the character and fate of their owners. lady was killed even though she was just chilling the entire time, which represents what happened to sansa's innocence and childhood upon realizing who the lannisters really are. ghost literally foreshadowed jon getting killed. nymeria was named after the warrior-queen who pretty much built house martell, and this is a direct contrast to the "elegant" direwolf lady, and sansa and arya are pretty obviously projecting their own personalities in their direwolves' names. summer is bran's direwolf, because he is a sweet summer child, and summer ends / dies to make way for (drumroll) "winter" because winter is freaking coming. grey wind, the fiercest and bravest of them all, who is the direwolf of the young king of the north himself robb stark. too bad the bleak name could also be a foreshadowing of robb's death. and then we get to shaggydog. just fyi, the "shaggy dog" trope is about a character whose arc goes all over, but actually ending in an anti-climax. why would george name rickon's direwolf with such a trope if rickon's arc isn't going to end in a bitter anti-climax? i think rickon's arc would appear to be promising but it'll likely end in a bitter and sad way because george doesn't really do happy endings. edit: shaggydog could also mean that rickon is pretty much a feral child, and that he might end up with the wildlings or somewhere deeper in the wild north. that could be his ultimate fate. a sad fate for a stark, out there where nobody knows what happened to him. not unlike benjen stark. also, the previously planned title of book 7 before it was changed to "a dream of spring" was "a time for wolves". this could also suggest a truly bittersweet ending for the remaining stark children. nymeria's pack of wolves and dogs are going to war, possibly reuniting with arya. ghost might actually guide jon's lost "soul" as he gets "resurrected" or however that actually plays out in the books. we already know that summer and hodor get sacrificed for bran, as confirmed by george himself with the real origin of hodor's name 😭. and finally with rickon, i think shaggydog will really live up to the name and would have an arc that involves going quite feral warg or getting lost somewhere in the wild. but definitely, there's no plain vanilla happy ending for the starks and their direwolves.

Catelyn hates Jon because she thinks he is Ned's son and she knows that Robb is not Ned's but is Brandon's son. Her first born son with Ned is Bran. That is why he is her favorite and most protected by her. Jon is a threat to Bran's claim to be the head of House Stark to her. With Bran hanging out in a tree, Rickon becomes the heir. But there is still Jon in her mind as Ned's first born son. Really pay attention to the wording she uses in her head when thinking about Robb and his relationship to Ned.

Is it too on the nose to think that because of brans path to becoming one eyed raven, Summer will die.. and that’ll signify that winter is finally here. The end game so to speak

Well, we will have the Dreadfort empty if northern conspiracy succeeds as no one will leave the Bolton blood passing on and someone can take the fort. They can make Rickon Stark Lord of Dreadfort - a perfect irony and Jon Snow (IF he is resurrected back to life AND is not a son of Rhaegar and Lyanna but really Eddard's bastard) to be the Lord of Winterfell and King in the North. Else, northerners can simply exchange the holdings and titles of Jon and Rickon

I remember see him after so many season and I totally forgot about Rickon like they push him aside and only brought him back to kill him off and you tell me not only he was the heir to the north that in the book he had power like Brian to and I have no doubt that if Rickon knew Jon was alive he won't wage war on him, he actually Jon as brother so he won't care about the crown and catelyn oh course her bitch ass don't want Jon those I have no doubt if she was with Rickon, she would tell him fight Jon for the crew but know Jon he would give up his heir cause he don't want fight his brother

If the importance of a character goes unnoticed and requires subsequent media treatment to point it out - either it was actually not so important to the main storyline after all, or only important in a limited way or someone simply didn’t do their job of communicating it properly in the first place. Further: what goes unnoticed cannot create a mystery, because, tadaah, it went unnoticed. If you look back and in retrospect wonder why something was even there in the first place, that’s not a story mystery, that’s just wondering what the fuck went wrong for the writer in terms of meaningfully using what was laid out on the table for storytelling or at least communicating some sense of how the apparent lack of significance might be the key to something bigger.

Jon could become his regent and hand

i keep saying it but Benjen Stark is a better candidate as his heir. everone forgets about him like Prince Rickon.

You say all Stark kids warg into Direwolves... Sansa? Please elaborate.

What if like aegon and rhaenyra had a ‘dance of the dragons’ .. rickon and Jon have a ‘dance old the wolves’ in a civil war for the north? 😂😂😂😂 just a funny thought

He said one eyed crow and I can't say he is wrong. Come on bran, dont

Who will finish the books for George?

Rickon's name is shaggydog, which means a long complicated story with an unimportant anticlimatic end. Rickon is going to die, and Davos will live. (Davos has a tendency to survive impossible things)

the dire wolf died by the stag. The stag didnt kill the entire family tho.... big mistake. The surviving wolves were able to take vengence. tada.. the entire show in a nutshell. I must read the books .... I need the richness of the charaters.

One eyed crow??

god, when i read the books, i mustve read them with my ass or some shit, bc i legit cant remember some of these important events. oh well, time to pick em up again i suppose!

Rickon Stark was wasted in the television series, and he deserved better and such a shame he was killed off. Something could have gone on between Rickon and Osha. I believe Rickon's death at the hands of Ramsay Bolton was done to motivate dumb Jon Snow to fight back against Ramsay Bolton. If Rickon hadn't died and if Jon Snow had been exposed as a Targaryen, Rickon could have challenged him as King of the North.

Reckon is too young to be king and Jon is into fight a war against his baby brother to rules the north

I think his death was pretty climactic

Rickon is as important as nipples in an armour

Speaking way to close to mic

Um, it's possible that Rickon will become a very important character in the books, but I don't see any real signs in the text that this will happen. What we're shown is that Rickon was growing increasingly feral and less socialized as time went on... not traits that lead to someone becoming a good ruler. And he seems to be getting progressively less important to the plot as time goes on. not more important. Not hatin', just sayin'. Of course, this assumes that ASOIAF will ever be finished, which seems unlikely now.

his Direwolf's name means he's not important. His story will just be a "better nate than lever" joke similar to Quentyn Martell. I'm sorry you've put so much effort into something that seems already settled.

He's important because you want him to be lol

How is Rickon going to unite the north or help against the others? Dude's like 4 years old...🤣🤣🤣

My theory on Rickon is this: he will die, soon. (Nothing new). But his link with his wolf is the important think to be aware. The name of the wolf only points the fate of the owner. Rickon will die, but he will warg into his wolf. In his wolf’s body will be were Rikkon will be esencial. If you tel me. I would revive Jon but kill Ghost, I would keep Rickon dead but Shaggy Dog alive, beside Jon. That would be EPIC.

he is nothing, his dire wolf shaggy dog refers to story char who mean nothing

I feel like you didn’t say anything insightful or thought provoking. Rickon has a dire wolf. That’s all?

He’s not important…. At all in the show at least lol

Aww. Youre new to this. Rickon is going no where. & for yet another bafoon, zig zagging was not going to save rickon!

Sansa doesn't have warg abilities that ive ever read
