I thought it odd that the covers on top of Lyanna were soaked in blood. There should be lots under and surrounding her.The child is in clean swaddles, the blanket with the afterbirth was in the floor. Why are her ribs bleeding?

Tell me, why did you choose Deem for that unhappy task?” “A good commander knows his men, Tyrion. Some are good for one job, some for another. Doing for a babe, and her still on the tit, that takes a certain sort. Not every man’d do it. Even if it was only some whore and her whelp.”
Why must I always be the isle of crazy alone in an ocean of sensibility? The should to everybody else’s shouldn’t? The I-will to their better-nots?
