I'm just not sure how Arthur Dayne fits in and whether his death is like a kinslaying. "Now it begins.... now it ends" or the alpha and the omega or the dragon swallowing it's own tail. I don't know; it's still confusing. It's a reboot in some way. An idea briefly popped into my mind about the Daynes and whether or not they were trying to usher in the end of days. As with most of my great ideas though, the thought was interrupted and I can't remember the context or where I was going with it.

Random musing on the 3 heads of the dragon....
Again, what is represented by the ToJ? Three knights against seven guarding a tower (or a castle in chess). Could the 3 knights represent 3 heads of the fire dragon, in this case Aerys? In opposition to the 7 kingdoms represented by Ned? The last play is to tear down the tower. It's curious that there is a lot of blood red imagery associated with Kingslanding in Ned's POV.
This is the beginning and the ending... could it be that the dragons won out the first time in the battle for the dawn. Is it an inversion with the 3 heads of the ice dragon coming into play now?
The sword, shield and horse of Aerys and now the sword, shield and horn on the Wall the original castle being the Night Fort?
