    Even thought Melisandre uses tricks to tame the flames, she is still REALLY old. So something is keeping her alive. The part about Manse Rader is interesting. It makes me wonder who's skin Melisandre is wearing, and who is she really? Great video.

    The "Bag of fingerbones" line has always stuck out to me like crazy. Only because we do have a bag of fingers bones in our story that has gone missing. They also belong to a character thought by everyone to be dead, and will almost certainly be missing for a while since he's gunna be adventuring in Skagos. I can't imagine how or why they would be used, but it's just such a specific reference.

      In Cressen's chapter, before he goes to the feast, he goes to sleep with his poisons on the table beside him. The junior Maester under him doesn't wake him as he usually did. It is quite possible that he saw the poison when he came to his room and told Melisandre or maybe someone else did. Remember, Dragonstone is literally crawling with people who are loyal to Melisandre. Religious nutjobs.
      Or maybe it was her Ruby. In Essos there are rubies who can protect people from poison. As you said.

    I do not know about the books, but the show had the Gem in Melisandre’s necklace/collar start to pulse with light after she drank the poison, and you'll also note she became her true self after taking the necklace/collar off. It would seem the show implies there is power in that Gem that gives Melisandre more powers than a typical Red Priestess.

    Is it possible Melissandre is a wildling? Remember her dream/memory of Hardhome when it was still a seaport and trading slaves? She must have been taken to Essos as a child. Its tin-foil possible the NK is after her, since her dreams and visions seem to be tied to the others in a way.

    Great video...maybe thats why in the show they really killed off mance rayder...instead of the glamour she did with rattleshirt they killed mance with mel burning him but jon giving him a quick death with the arrow....maybe she isnt going to be an old crone in the books...maybe she really looks like how she looks or close to it...i dont know....its just thought...if so looking back now after show has ended....it shows the short cuts dan and dave were veering toward rushing the story when they showed us old crone mel at the end of the season 6 premiere...ironically titled the red woman if my memory is correct...wow i wish i had realized this back then...id say a lot of us do....ill admit i liked season 6...loved battle of the bastards...loved the hold the door episode i think called the door...was really glad to see jon back and reunite with sansa...not my favorite season finale(season 2)...but yet season 6s finale the winds of winter was very good in my opinion....i even enjoyed when jon...sansa...and davos went around the north trying to get support...enjoyed the riverrun mini arc...where we got to see the blackfish(he shoulda escaped like in the books but guess with GOT only about half dozen characters was ever safe...GOT not ASOIAF)...i thought thr actor playing the blackfish was great in the part...i liked reveal that benjen was alive...well sort of....ive always suspected that the character in ASOIAF coldhands was benjen stark...and in the episodes post episode thing dan and dave always did...1 of them called him benjen coldhands...so my opinion looking back now...starting really with hardhome....despite it still being my 2nd favorite behind battle of the bastards....of all time....it didnt happen in ASOIAF....ill always allow that creative liberty they took with that epispodes....

      Do you really think Jon Snow is going to revive in the books? My brother once told me leaving Jon dead was GRRM style. That would make a shift so big in the books ann the series that they couldn't be related any more. Sure that would imply another story to write (if GRRM is really writing what we think he is writing, if he is writing at all lol), and as we have seen each book has been more complex that the one before, killing Jon Snow could mean much more time to write; time GRRM does not poses you know, hes old after all. How wolud that version be?

    I think her main power is based on belief and illusions. And she feed on that to affect people and grow her power. In many ways her appearing young is changing the perception people have of her. I believe that some of the things she sees in the flame is really questionable and people see what they want to see. I don't think Rob, the greyjoy and Joffrey died because of the leeches. But it's enough to mesmerizes Stannis. In the case of Jon Snow, I think he may have been between life and death and their belief that she could bring him back did the trick(don't forget that the Starks may have magic in them too). Sometime it's the usual illusions(sees in fire), sometime it's bigger illusions(her appearing young). I think that Beric comes back to life but it's one particular incantation and may have nothing to do with the Lord of light.

      As another person commented: "
      It says in the book how Melisandre survives the poison; it's the jewel on her throat. In somebody else's chapter (one of Danerys's I think) that there exist red jewels that can protect from poison"

      I was just reading this chapter ( The first chapter of “A Clash of Kings”) it says that :- “The ruby on her neck glowed brighter than ever when she drank the poison” or something like that. So maybe it is the ruby which prevented her from succumbing to the poison given by Maester Cresson.
