A song of Ice and fire discussion (spoilers incl A Dance with Dragons)

[Farseer]

True, true...and I can't help but wonder (hope?) that Nymeria's position may one day prove prophetic as far as Arya is concerned.

I have some theories to share and questions to ask but this is possibly the most important: I seem to recall it being said here somewhere long ago that GRRM has some ASoIaF-related short stories about the place (similar to RotE). Can anyone please confirm? I'm thinking that there might be something in Legends so will try and dig that out in the meantime...
