I’m sorry, but a man who STARTS OFF his rise to power and eventual reign of terror by killing a twelve-year-old boy to lure his father out and shoot him, and THEN murdering another twelve-year-old boy when those two are dead…is nothing but shit. We called that wrong when it was done to the medics in World War II, and it’s wrong in Westeros, too.

Bloodraven never regretted anything – I don’t care what he says to an eight-year-old boy to seduce him to the Weirwood Cause. He was a fucking amoral sociopath and his getting to be a kewl immortal and Lord Commander (with a 200-strong honor guard that PROBABLY GOT HIM ELECTED) is a reward, not a punishment.
