Game of Thrones - safe characters to care about?
So, I recently started watching the Game of Thrones TV series with my roommate, and I was wondering - which characters are safe to care about? :)
We're on the second season second episode right now, just after Theon returns to the Iron Islands. I've only read the first book, and that was 15 years ago, so we're past the point where I know for sure what's coming. That said, I've picked up bits and pieces over the years. And so, for example, I know what's just happened on the TV series, and it doesn't surprise me in the least that such a thing would happen. :/
Anyway, I'm looking for a short list of likeable characters who live, and who are predicted to continue to live, and who don't have horrible soul-shattering things happen to them? Right now I'm betting on Jon, Arya, Tyrion, and Daenerys. They seem to be the center of long-running plotlines that would be utterly pointless if they suddenly died. Does that seem reasonable? Anyone have other suggestions? :)
