Could The Fall Of The Wall Be A Little More Wet?

Could the fall of the wall be a little more… wet?

The wall in asoiaf is made of ice. When it’s hot it is described as “weeping” with melted parts flowing down the ice. Is it possible that when (if) the wall falls in story instead of being like a brick wall caving in it could be more like a Great Flood?

After all the easiest way to make all that ice go away is to let it run away on its own i.e. turn it into a giant wave! “Waking giants from the earth” could be earthquake but think back to the hammer of the waters or the creation of the neck. Both involved enormous amounts of water flooding after an earthquake. Maybe the fall of the wall could be the same, except being a land based tsunami post earthquake. (Meta narratively drawing upon the Great Flood myth GRRM might’ve learned about as a Catholic child)

Then the Others will surf all the way down to the God’s Eye and marry Jon snow at Harrenhal!

I also could be completely wrong. But it’s a fun idea!

Fascinated by Stannis as this play on a legendary king, prophesied and aided by a witch, who like the culture heroes of the past, made up a character of himself through bravery of deed and illusions of magic. We see Joffrey’s court in his pageantry, associating his image with the wealth and prosperity of the realm, but it was interesting to see an older style of king. Balancing the fact that in this world magic is real, but that there is also a technological aspect to the establishment of his power—Stannis is the Prince That Was Promised, but only through Melisandre’s chemical and theatrical direction. So here is Stannis with his magic sword, blazing like a firework with Melisandre’s powders. A character loved by many not because he was destined, but because he did what needed to be done in spite of diminishing circumstances.

Three hundred sets of eyes looked on as Prince Daemon Targaryen placed the Old Kings crown on the head of his wife, proclaiming her Rhaenyra of House Targaryen, First of Her Name, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men.
