The Lord Commander did send word, in the same scene where he gave Jon the sword he said that he had sent Ser Alliser Thorne(who had goaded Jon into attacking him earlier), bringing with him the hand Ghost tore off, to King’s Landing.
You’re actually wrong on this one. Mormont sent Thorne (Jon’s tormentor) to King’s Landing with the hand from one of the zombies. I don’t recall him saying it, but I assume it was a still-moving hand, since he expected it to generate some attention for the Night’s Watch.

I wouldn’t put much stock in what Jon Snow does. He knows nothing.
I missed out on posting before the episode, ooops, so here’s my post-mortem:
Jon surprised me, and I gained a little bit of respect for him. I thought he was going to be halfway to the army by now, but he turned back! Bide your time and become the kind of man your Wall-brothers want to follow, Jon!
Was also not expecting Jorah to just let Danys go into the fire. Was also surprised the witchcraft worked that way. I did spoiler myself that Drogo died, but not how. I thought interrupting the ritual would make it so that whatever was going to make Drogo survive would save the baby instead.
I want to make a prediction about Littlefinger, but he’s just such a maze it’s hard to. It’s just speculation. Plus I think I consider him more important of a character than he actually is. We know he wants Cat, and Cat is conveniently the mother of the King of the North. He might be in it for the long con. He holds influence behind the scenes. I think he might use that to get one of the Stark kids out of a pickle, after which Cat is indebted to him. He leverages that to obtain her affections, and then maneuvers Robb onto the throne. Controlling a king might be as satisfying to him as being king. And if you aren’t actually king, it’s a hell of a lot easier to get away when shit hits the fan!
ok so this is what i think’s gonna happen (well what i want to happen)
Joffrey does something to really piss off Tyrion, and then to top it off the father kills his woman: Tyrion defects to the Starks (who will likely be somehow allied with the rightful heir, the brother, whatever his name is). This will be the reason the starks beat the hell outta the lannisters. Why do I think this? Despite being a jerk, Tyrion is a good guy, he’s not like the rest of his family. I don’t know why anyone hasn’t mentioned this, maybe I’m nuts but I think the signs have always been there.
Arya ends up killing Joffrey - it has to happen. Maybe he kills her with a cheap shot, but there’s definitely gonna be a showdown.
Arya and Tyrion, and the sword teacher are my favorite characters … i hope the sword dude is somehow still alive, however i know this story tends to have the goal of disappointing you
-these are the 2 that i really think are gonna happen
now for my wild speculations:
lannisters get the s*** kicked out of them… starks are gonna have to cede a lot of power to facilitate this getting allies, starks are gonna be thinned through this process. i hope jamie gets tied to the posts on the beach like they were talking about, that’s be a good one, his sister, don’t really care i can rest easy knowing that something awesomely terrible will happen to her, father lannister, gonna croak on the battlefield of a heart attack,
most of the starks die-robb is definitely doomed-the hound will prob kill him, dunno about the rest, lannisters will be long gone,
Jon and robert’s bastard are going to team up and be bastards together, jon’s going to die doing something heroic in a corny moment: he was doomed to this fate from the beginning. Who cares about the other bastard, his helmet will definitely save his life at one point. Sam is of course gonna get f’d up, but no clue how; speculations are endless and immensely fun to ponder. Maybe he picks up the helmet off the dead bastard and kills something with the horn, in his one moment of non-cowardness before he gets f’d up.
Bran and winterfell? that’s really hard to predict, one thing i really don’t have the slightest clue about… maybe he has some kind of mind powers that can keep that place safe from zombies? doubt it…
it really makes me mad that littlefinger is a littleb**ch…thomas carcetti shouldn’t be a traitor, it is what it his, i think that robb’s old ho who’s master ho is gonna end up killing him…maybe
The sister with the kid who’s like 12 and still breastfeeds’ castle is going to be the first place to fall to the zombies- that’s gonna show everyone how serious this stuff is. -The kid’s gonna end up “flying” he has to.
long battle is ultimately coming between the 7 kingdoms and zombies (the nuts in the north will team up with them, eventually)-obviously, i know… starks and lannisters are gone except maybe tyrion and bran then when the dragons are ready, the hottie blonde will come and deal with them… she’ll take over, the white dude who was the slave trader (i’m bad with names) is gonna be her right hand, NOT HER LOVER, i think they want you to think this will happen, but it wont, i’m pretty sure about this one
from there i think the story’s kinda over, that’s prob the end of where book 3 would be and he just kept going because he liked all the cash he was taking in. in short, that’s prob when i’ll stop watching … but i guess prob the daphraki or wtf they’re called will ride in on cthulu and destroy all the kingdoms
think that covers it all … i hate when i watch 11 episodes of something in 3 days to catch up and it’s over, i needed to let that all out
