Kindness is a Virtue

Compassion
“Scrub him and dress him and carry him to Kingspyre, if need be,” Qyburn said. “Lord Bolton insists he will sup with him tonight. The time is growing short.”
“Bring me clean garb for him,” Brienne said, “I’ll see that he’s washed and dressed.”
The others were all too glad to give her the task.

So much truth in this post. Brienne really does treat Jaime with kindness and dignity way before he's earned that from her.

Definitely and its not little things she does either, she takes care of him when he is basically useless to take care of himself.

this!

in fact, i credit brienne's actions as one of the strongest catalysts for jaime's redemption. it is impossible to ignore her shining example of compassion, courage, loyalty and dignity.

Yes I think her example helped Jaime on his path to trying to redeem himself as well.

Had to stop reading after the word "maimed", haha, but I love this. I read a few chapters in AGoT today so I plan to be flying through the books soon!
