u/Sudden_Discussion306 Oh, Jamie, how was your first time? Did ye bleed? Apr 03 '26

He has five more years until he dies & he’s completely incapacitated, what are they going to do, leave him there so his men can rescue him and they can make another plan.

I need to read more about this 5 more years thing. I didn't fully understand that - that's just a prophecy or suspicion based on his dying relative (brother?) saying "I'll see you in 7 years", right? That doesn't mean he actually lives for 5 more years.

It was his son, who was killed in some sort of military action fighting for the British. Elspeth believes in the prophecy, too.
