ah, indeed.
All that Val storyline was thrown out the window... "the blood of the king beyond the wall" would have fit nicely into Melisandre's plan... now, Stannis "is dead", as well as his daughter... so... no king's blood around for the fire witch to play with... :þ
And the "singer" that should have gone to Winterfell, with a few girls, to help with the wedding party...?
That never happened... me haz sad.
