Re: The Official Game of Thrones [A Song of Ice and Fire] Thread
No, he didn't. I was referring to the part of your post where you said "all we've seen them do with adults is kill them." Well, here was one Walker who actually married a grown man. Or so we are led to believe.
You know, old George is really setting this thing as some complex struggle between various deities and factions and he's only sort of hinted at the back story. I REALLY hope it isn't just a giant troll and the Walkers, in fact, are just a LOTR Orc like race, bent only on destruction because they are orcs. He's set this up that these things either were created by someone/something with more of a purpose or reason for what they do, or themselves as free-thinking beings have more of a purpose/reason for what they do.
To ultimately reveal they are just his version of orcs would be disappointing at this point.
Did he become one, though? I can't recall.
