Eventually everybody will come to accept the only legitimate and true King - Stannis Baratheon.

EDIT: I hope this doesn't count as a spoiler but in the book please tell me this fight was from Obreyn's POV? Somehow I can only picture it written that way.

quote:

Like an avalanche made of steel The Mountain came at Oberyn. Ducking nimbly under the slashing blade he struck once, twice, three times in the weak points of the armor. The Mountain staggered back and Oberyn stepping in closely and thrust his spear under the Mountain's gorget. Coughing up blood, the Mountain crashed backwards and lay still, dead for all time.

The gathered crowd was silent for an eternal moment and then burst into cheers and joyous tears. Lord Tywin stood up from his seat and waved his hands for silence.

"Prince Oberyn, you have shown true grace and courage in this fight today. I hereby proclaim Tyrion innocent of all wrongdoing and promote him to Heir of Casterly Rock. For your services, I name you Prince Totally Awesome, Protector of the Realm. You are hereby granted unlimited whoring rights within the Seven Kingdoms and get a really neat badge to wear. As for you, Cersei, you will take the black and gently caress off to parts unknown for the rest of your days. Oh, and Jaime, I just talked to the Maesters and since magic is back, you get a new hand. Now, let's dance!"

Anyway for anyone mad about them killing off Obreyn, at least look at the bright side: This was probably the very best role for his career he could ask for. I suspect you're going to see him in more stuff in the near future with how impressive he was.

Hate to break it to y'all but my donation created the Oberyn character and GRRM even let me pick his exact grisly death for an extra 5k.
