Actually, warning bells have been ringing since last season and beyond. This particular plot twist began when Roose Bolton sent his "bastard" to retake Winterfell from the Ironmen during season two.

The name of the third book is "A Storm of Swords", folks. Think about it. It has double meaning, just like all of the titles. I think it is a reference to the Unsullied in the east, and something in the West that I'm not going to mention, yet. Because I really don't know. ;)
