So you don't think The Others will ever get south of the wall? It's just an ominous distraction in the background?
I think both Martin and HBO have invested way, way too much of story in the Others for it to be only that.
No...I mean they may get south of the wall...in fact I'm sure the battle for the north will involve them at some point...I just don't think they ever conquer Westeros....
one possible scenario where they might though is - if they do conquer westeros, only then are defeated and driven back by Dany and her forces and Dragons. that I could see.
I'm just saying the end game cannot be the Others win.
