Rob Stark and Theon Greyjoy

When you will describe these two characters you will obviously notice a great difference in both of them. One is: one of the friends is loyal to another one but another one is disloyal. It’s similar to saying that a Wolf’s in a Sheep’s clothing.
George R. R. Martin is very creative in portraying the betrayal of Theon Greyjoy, the only living true son of Baelon Greyjoy of the Iron Islands, to his best friend Robb Stark. Robb Stark and Theon Greyjoy both were grown together in the Winterfell. Theon was brought by Ned Stark to Winterfell after the Robert’s army killed every living son of Baelon Greyjoy. Robb was pre-destined to be the Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North while Theon would only serve Robb as a loyal companion.
Further, as the story progressed Ned Stark was kept as a captive for being a traitor on a false charge of committing crime against the crown. Robb Stark got angry about the news. He remembered how his Grandfather and Uncle were burned by the Mad King when they entered King’s Landing. Robb blindly declared war against the crown declaring himself ‘the King’ with the help of his loyal companion, one of whom was Theon, and named himself as the King in the North. Later on, during the war preparation Robb sends Theon to Iron Islands where he could request his real father to assist Robb for the war against the Crown. Instead, under the command of his father Theon captures Winterfell for the Iron-Borne. To gain power Theon even executes Ser Rodrick infront of the acting Lord of Winterfell Brandon Stark. Anyway Theon learns his lesson when he couldn’t defend Winterfell from Boltons, long time enemy of the House Stark.

In this way, we can recapitulate the betrayal of one character to another. So, we should learn to chose our friends wisely.

Tormund, often called Tormund Giantsbane, is a renowned leader and raider among the Free Folk and one of the key leaders behind Mance Rayder.

But as time passes and Mance is killed on the orders of Stannis Baratheon, he believes the prophesied warrior is his enemy-turned-friend Jon Snow.
