The red sun bleeding could be the murder of Elia Martell during sacking of King's Landing, but it could also refer to Oberyn Martell, whose death had a direct impact on Jaime's family since it led to Tyrion being forced to flee from Westeros after being found guilty of Joffrey's death. Blogger Dorian the Historian pointed out that the red star of the prophecy need not be literal, either it could refer to the sigil of House Martell, which is a red sun. For example, his near death experience in the lake (if he survives) could be his rebirth amidst smoke and salt - the smoke of Drogon's fire and the salt of the water. In the show, it seems like most of the evidence linking Jaime to Azor Ahai is still to come. That sacrifice is a part of his story that might come into play when considering which of the current characters is the Prince That Was Promised. In A Storm of Swords, she offered up some of the key markers that can be used to identify the second coming of Azor Ahai: "When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor Ahai shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake dragons out of stone."Īzor Ahai also possessed a flaming sword called Lightbringer that he forged by sacrificing his wife Nissa Nissa: its power was gained in part due to him stabbing her directly in the heart with it. Also called the Prince That Was Promised, he's an important figure in the religion of R'hllor, which is why Melisandre brings him up most often. ![]() Let's pause a moment for a quick reminder: Azor Ahai was a warrior who fought thousands of years ago in Westeros to end the Long Night and defeat the White Walkers. That begs the question: is Jaime Lannister Azor Ahai on Game of Thrones? To survive he'd have to be someone very special - like a legendary warrior who hasn't yet fulfilled his destiny. ![]() Weighted down by his armor and his golden hand, Jaime may have sunk to the bottom before he had a chance to save himself, switching out one awful death for another. ![]() In the fourth episode of Game of Thrones Season 7, "The Spoils of War," Jaime Lannister took a plunge headfirst into a lake to avoid becoming the pièce de résistance at Daenerys' welcome home barbecue.
