"Is a GoT prophecy messed up?" Topic

Specifically the prophecy Maggy the Frog gives to Cersei.
She says she will have three children who will all die before her.
Yet, she had a baby with Robert who died as an infant.
Is this one if those tricky things where you have to diagram sentences?

I think it would be great if ALL the prophecies were wrong in major ways.

Messed up…
Title correction request submitted.

Can't see Tommen lasting much longer …

according to Preston Jacobs, all GRR Martin's prophesies are BS.
It's a unifying theme in all of his writings.

Well infant, joffrey and the daughter.
There's three.
Crone doesn't have to tell her she'll actually have four kids and one will survive.
Because she's a witch and they like to mess with you.

Robert died as an infant?

Maggy: Oh, aye. Six-and-ten for him, and three for you. Gold shall be their crowns and gold their shrouds, she said. And when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you.

I do not believe the first baby was a blond.

Of course to muddy the waters this was the answer to the question:

"Will the King and I have Children?"

Of course the king and her only had one child.

Muddying the waters is the best way to get around prophecies.

The first baby had the black Baratheon hair.

The first baby's father wasn't Jaime. The prophesies are always meant as riddles and don't necessarily come true. After all, Dany's baby was "The Stallion the Mounts the World". Of course that baby is dead but maybe you can devise a chain of events (depending on future events) where Dany draws inspiration from her dead son (after all in the episode SPOILER ALERT where she burns the Dosh Khaleen she make a point of telling the Khals that she has been there before and it is where the prophesy was announced. Prophesies in GoT seem to be like fortune cookie fortunes, you won't truly know until after the event has happened. But yes, at the moment it seems like a problem in continuity.

I suspect that Danny's child may be a reference yo her being the Mother of Dragons. Those dragons look like they could certainly mount the world – or at least frack it up.

EVERYTHING in GOT is messed up. Anyone for a great Khal barbecue?

Dany gas just now given birth to the Stallion that mounts the world.

Just waiting for Winter. Thus far it is the only original part of GoT…and the only prophecy worth anything. But, let us ignore that and write a few more bad books and produce a few more seasons of the humanistic drek we know and love. I tried throwing last seasons blu-ray set outside during a blizzard, but it did not work. The prophecy was broken and we got no Winter just more sputum. Maybe if I throw GRRM outside during a blizzard we can move the story along.
