A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Confirms Popular Game of Thrones Theory

28 years ago in 1998, George R.R. Martin released the first novella in The Tales of Dunk and Egg series, The Hedge Knight. The Hedge Knight follows Ser Duncan the Tall as he meets his squire Egg and takes part in the Tourney at Ashford Meadow following the death of the knight he was squired to, Ser Arlan of Pennyworth. A major theory with A Song of Ice and Fire fans since The Hedge Knight came out was the idea that Ser Arlan never actually knighted Dunk, and that Dunk is lying about his knighthood throughout the series.
