I very much agree, but this faceless man is on Westeros for a mission, so he's rather miffed at not being able to complete it.
Is is it to Robb's advantage to do so? An ironic thing is that Sansa is probably safer with the Lannisters than with Stannis, Melisandre is likely to convince him to burn her at the stake. Plus, Stannis is actually a better military commander than Tywin, and Melisandre's skills make his camp better equipped to handle Robb's force powers than the others, Stannis is the bigger threat, not the Lannisters.
The secret passage is a show only thing, doesn't exist here. And Jaime is what keeps Sansa alive, so the people at Casterly Rock will just calle his bluff.
(google translation) Ela também tem nove anos, e acho que isso é algo que as pessoas não consideram muito
Don't think of them as Sansa chapters. Sansa is like a narrative tool for me, instead of making 3-4 POVs in one chapter to explain anything, I get to use her new powers as an excuse to basically give you a "hey, so this is what's currently happening in Kingslanding" and then move on.
I agree, actually it's something I wanted to adress further in this story as to the existence of "force sensitives" within andal lands. But that doesn't really change my point, the oldest ruling house at the moment are the Starks.
For the first time in a long while, Sansa glimpses a glimmer of her brother's old smiles on his face. "There is much hidden within our bloodline, Sansa." He says. "We come from the oldest line of the first men alive, our ancestors worshipped the Old Gods who were a Living Force on their own, and granted us gifts that are finally resurfacing after thousands of years. The Direwolves, Sansa, the Direwolves were a sign."

Completely Agree.
Even so, she vowed to come back whenever she can to try, for her family, for her daughters, Catelyn Stark would do the unthinkable.

What I'm trying to argue is that she's not actually stupid, just emotional, those are two different things.

She actually makes a lot of smart decisions, and if Robb took her advice a lot of bad things could have been evaded, she's honestly over-hated in my opinion. This is books catelyn, mind you. In the books, she advises Robb to choose Roose Bolton as a commander to lead the decoy infantry against Tywin instead of Greatjon, which works, as Roose is naturally cautious and calculating and would have lesser casualties. She vehemently counsels against sending Theon back to the iron islands, since Robb at the time didn't expect an attack from the Iron Islands, and if he listened then that whole debacle could have been evaded. She counsels against his marriage with Jeyne Westerling, thinking that it would offend the Freys. And as Lady Stoneheart, she leads a bunch of Outlaws quite efficiently and kills a bunch of freys before going back north. Looking at her track record, it is clear that she's smart and quite clever when her emotions aren't involved, for all intents and purposes, her advice is logical, but it's only when her family is involved that she turns batshit insane and just does anything that would seemingly help them, even if it's absolutely stupid, and it just turns out that those were her most important decisions. Honestly, it's something to at least respect, even if you don't like it.
Even so, she vowed to come back whenever she can to try, for her family, for her daughters, Catelyn Stark would do the unthinkable.
