Yet another trailer and possible spoilers for the S2 timeline
Season 2 Trailer: Price For Our Sins
HBO has released yet another trailer for Game of Thrones S2... the time is near! You can spot Brienne towards the end in what looks like Renly's tent.
Even more relevant to our interests, though, is this post at shadowlocked.com about the most anticipated moments in GoT S2 - they seem to be in the know rather than simply speculating, anyway, here is what they have to say about Jaime and Brienne.
10: The Caged Lion
A lot of people have spent season one hating Jaime Lannister for stabbing Jory Cassel through the eye and generally being a bit mean to Ned. Currently held captive by Robb and Catelyn Stark, the Kingslayer has some time to reflect on his bad behavior. In the books, Jaime spends an entire book held as a prisoner of the Starks, and the exchange between he and Catelyn Stark that occurred in season one of A Game of Thrones doesn’t come until the end of the second book. Obviously it isn’t the most exciting plot-line for a character to be kept prisoner for an entire season, so Jaime’s story is being put on fast-track. Expect this to mean copious usage of the word “wench”, quite a bit of swordplay and a thoroughly unexpected character arc. Jaime is one of the many characters that undergoes a large personal change throughout the events of the series, but few are as sharp as the Kingslayer’s. Along the way we’ll get to meet the Brave Companions led by slobber-mouth Vargo Hoat and his merry band of rapers and pillagers.
9: The Maid of Tarth
Brienne of Tarth is described mockingly as “a beauty” throughout the series, as she’s generally considered ugly and man-ish in every way. Full of idealistic notions about knighthood and honour despite the brutal world she lives in, Brienne is a tough-as-nails fighter who could hold her own against veteran knights, but possess a naivete that often makes her seem out of her depth. She’s head-over-heels for Renly Baratheon, but is wise enough to know nothing will ever come of it. Throughout the series Brienne’s importance grows and fans can certainly expect to see her have some great interaction with a few unlikely characters throughout the second season.
So... it really seems that, like many of us had already speculated (especially after those comments about canoeing XD) we will indeed get the first part of Jaime and Brienne's journey together - I don't know about you but I think that they'll probably leave us with a cliffhanger about Jaime's fate with the arakh going down and OMG THE VIEWERS WILL THINK THEY'RE CUTTING HIS HEAD or something. (lol no)
Thoughts?
