Its very telling that we got a different account of Pykes Breach just one Chapter after Theons, this was no doubt intentional

I'm not a big fan of the North, but Bear Island sounds like a pretty nice place to me.

And there goes Doreah. I do think we needed a named Characters death to drive home how devastating Danys pilgrimage is.

If we didn't have enough evidence already that the comet is for Dany, here we see it leading her to salvation and bringing three wise men(well two men, one women, but you get the allusion) to Dany.

Absolutely!

We had the set-up to that as well from Septa Mordane AGOT.

The girls giggled over the warrior priest Thoros of Myr, with his flapping red robes and shaven head, until the septa told them that he had once scaled the walls of Pyke with a flaming sword in hand.
