In scenarios where natives share with others, the Native does not care if the person is a family member or not. Taking this into account the generally accepted way of doing this in a Christian setting could easily be considered alms.

I’ve thought a lot about this topic, and here’s where I stand: upon his inevitable resurrection, Jon will certainly experience rage and trauma regarding the assassination, but that might actually be the least of the changes he undergoes in The Winds of Winter. There are two major and intertwined shifts on his story’s horizon, one existential and one in terms of genre, that will largely supersede any lust for Bowen Marsh’s blood (or Ramsay’s, for that matter; in my Stannis-fanboy fantasies, Jon’s king cuts down the Bastard of Bolton before the now-former Lord Commander even returns to his body). I’ll tackle the latter first. Jon’s story changes genre with each successive book, in a manner that both reflects and contributes to his increasing

In “Hamlet” a tragedy written by William Shakespeare, the death of a character is an occurring event. William Shakespeare uses imagery and allusion to demonstrate the result of manipulation from other characters upon Ophelia, daughter of Polonius, and leading up to her death. Her death was not the consequence of disgraceful actions of her own, but rather by the involvement of others and their influence on her life. Hamlet’s apparent rejection of her love and her father’s personal vindictive leads up to her simple-minded state, entering a world of madness. She has now gone mad, singings nonsense songs and giving people flowers that she has picked from the garden.
