I don't even get the attachment of the comet to magic here. The only thing the comet is refereed to specifically is the return of Dragons. That's it.
And the return of the dragons is a sign that magic is stronger.


Which came first, the dragon or the egg...err comet?

It was never explicitly stated. People just sort of made that up. You had people claiming the comet was the return of magic, the return of dragons, the crowning of Joffrey, the killing of Ned, the return of white walkers, the Prince Who Was Promised and a dozen other ideas.
So there weren't dragons born and a return of magic (and other magical creatures)?

This is why I brought up Green Seers though. All the other shit could have a different explanation. But not that.

Dire wolves? Just big wolves.
Wild fire? Chemical reactions.
The wall? Well, technically it's just a wall (ignore the magic)
Valyrian Steel? Just a different ore.

But Green Seers is just some straight up magic, and it's been there since book 1. I also questioned whether warging was a thing or not. Not going to be assed to look that one up.

Not true. It is referenced numerous times as a herald for all sorts of events.

it was. You had numerous wargs (skinchangers) north of the wall living with the Free Folk, Varamyr Sixskins being the greatest.

The Green Seers and The Children of the forest have always been around, pretty much since history was being recorded. Which was before the comet.
And they retreated North of the wall. Magic has been weakened/abscent in Westeros for a long time.

Also you know what orbits and gravity are right? And how a comet can pass a planet more than once?

I mean, true...you had some saying the red comet signifying the red blood of Eddard Stark and such as well and the war of the 5 kings started shortly after it whcih peopel said was the reason. Osha dismissed all of it though and said Dragons and shortly after the dragons were born in the east.

Which now saying that..why is "magic returning" to Westeros tied to the dragons returning when the Dragons are in the east (where magic is everywhere already) up until season 7? How are they related at all?

Also The Lord of Light isn't a new thing either, it's been around for quite some time.

Thinking about it more, one could argue The Wall has been the reason that magic has become more rare south of the wall and the comet has nothing to do with it at all. (which it doesn't anyway)

Children of the forest have been running around South of the wall this whole time? Green seers have been common? Last I remember Bran and Jojen were the first two for quite some time south of the wall

All of Westeros was populated by them until the Andel invasion.Beings of magic. Existing before the comet.

And you know Dragons don't exist right and you can't reanimate the dead with "Cold Science" to fight in your army of conquest...

Personally, the comet was just a happy coincidence with all the other shit that fed into it. Magic is returning to Westeros and whether it's because dragons, eastern immgrants like Melisandre or some Ice Zombies pushing shit south, it doesn't really matter. It was there before and now it's there more.

No. I believe there was a quick mention from Jenny Oldstones about her friend being a child of the forest south of the wall, but thats it.

Yes. But clearly that was incorrect...
