George R.R. Martin is apparently a fan of H.P. Lovecraft's work, especially the Cthulhu mythos. Theon Greyjoy's people, the Ironborn, worship a resurrected figure called the Drowned God. Their prayers during religious rituals begin with "what is dead may never die," which echoes the prayer in Lovecraft's work, "that is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die." Cthulhu is also a squid-like monster, and the symbol of House Greyjoy is the Kraken, which is itself a squid-like monster. -
