Ever since I read that GRRM said that there is a 'method to his madness' in terms of the names he gave certain chapters in AFFC and ADwD, it's bene driving me nuts. I feel like there's some sort of clue in the names, and I was hoping we could try figure it out.
Here are the names:
The Prophet
The Captain Of Guards
The Kraken's Daughter
The Soiled Knight
The Iron Captain
The Drowned Man
The Queenmaker
The Reaver
Cat Of The Canals
The Princess In The Tower
The Merchant's Man
The Lost Lord
The Windblown
The Wayward Bride
The Prince of Winterfell
The Watcher
The Turncloak
The King's Prize
The Blind Girl
A Ghost in Winterfell
The Queensguard
The Iron Suitor
The Discarded Knight
The Spurned Suitor
The Griffin Reborn
The Sacrifice
The Ugly Little Girl
The Kingbreaker
The Dragontamer
The Queen's Hand
What's interesting to me is the following chapter names:
The Prophet
The Captain Of Guards
The Soiled Knight
The Queenmaker
The Princess In The Tower
The Wayward Bride
The Prince of Winterfell
The Sacrifice
The Kingbreaker
The Queen's Hand
All of these invoke the Rhaegar/Prophecy/Lyanna/Rebellion/Aerys story to me:
The Prophet
- Rhaegar/The Ghost of High Heart
The Captain Of Guards
- Gerold Hightower
The Soiled Knight
- any number of candidates here; some have stated that Arys Oakheart's story can link perhaps to Arthur Dayne - they could have both become soiled knights in Dorne.
The Queenmaker
- whoever is involved with Daenarys/Rhaella's story?
The Princess In The Tower
- Ashara, perhaps even Lyanna
The Wayward Bride
- Lyanna, failing to honour her marriage agreement
The Prince of Winterfell
- Brandon Stark?
The Sacrifice
- any number of ideas apply here - especially if you consider that Summerhall and the tower of joy could have been the site of a potential prophetic sacrifice.
The Kingbreaker
- Robert, or Jaime?
The Queen's Hand
- perhaps Willem Darry? Or Bonifer Hasty?
Could it be that there's a story being told by these chapter names? More than one story?
Your opinions on the chapter names?
