Oh man. Burden of Dreams or Hearts of Darkness would be great candidates.

Alas, this isn't right. (General Slot is, though.)
Are we SURE that this is the Mountain? We didn't see his face!
She has seen visions where she walks on the walls of Winterfell, and she knows that Shireen's death was instrumental to that happening. Maybe it turns out that she got the details right but not the big picture. Shireen's death is what leads her to the Wall to rehabilitate Jon Snow, who leads the successful attack.

Honestly, Arya could use a little self-abnegation at this point. She's been well on the way to psychopath for two seasons now.
She even subverted the House's language.
Jon Snow rushes with Olly down from his room to meet the wildling who has met Benjen. Struggling past a group of Night's Watch, he is confronted with a cross, black words etched across it.
No way. Season 4 featured Joffrey's wedding and its fallout, Tyrion's sets of trials, Littlefinger scheme-hatching, the death of Tywin Lannister, and shenanigans at the Wall. Not to mention the entirety of the Hound-Arya road trip.
"When you play a game of thrones, you die or you get a haircut."
"Sepinwall also mentions that if Jon dies, the show doesn't have any major character in the Watch right at the time it becomes crucial to the story, after five seasons."
Apparently invincible, in that seemingly most of their troops died despite having vastly superior numbers.
Stannis' arc was important, just turns out he wasn't the important player in it.
Yeah, did anybody really think that these powers of resurrection wouldn't come up in some important way later on in the books?
I'm looking forward to when she finally swears fealty to Pod.
Despite the opening in which all the snow is melting?
I also think it's interesting that both changes in her and Jaime's character arcs were symbolized with haircuts. Some interesting symmetry there.
Also, I'd like to mention that Melisandre's responses to Davos seemed to me disarmingly sincere. I think she's being confronted by the limitations of her powers, and I'm having increasing difficulty discerning to what extent she is a charlatan and to what extent she is devout.
Who had money on Melisandre and Davos being more important in the long run than Stannis? Collect your winnings.
EDIT _ NEVER MIND I THOUGHT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT JON
