Editing Mandon Moore/Theories (section)

==[[Joffrey Baratheon]]==
===Supporting evidence===
* For the king, a knight of the Kingsguard would be the natural choice as a hitman  to be sent against an enemy of him.
* Mandon appears to be very loyal to King Joffrey and prone to obeying without questions.{{Ref|ACOK|2}}{{Ref|ACOK|41}}
* In ''[[The Climb]]'', sixth episode of the third season of the TV series ''[[Game of Thrones]]'', it is implied that Joffrey ordered Mandon to kill Tyrion.

===Evidence  against===
* In theory Mandon could report to Cersei of her son's order.
* On the previous occasion when Joffrey had ordered an assassination, the attempted murder of [[Bran Stark]], he had preferred to hire a commoner as a [[catspaw]].{{Ref|ASOS|60}}
* ''[[Game of Thrones]]'' is not [[Help: Referencing and Canon|book canon]]; in this regard, it shoud be noted that the television adaptation did not confirm Joffrey was the instigator of the catspaw who tried to kill Bran.
