The head of gytian need help from the bears to fight with Gobblers, who stole Gyptian's children. The head of Iorek Byrnison wants his armor back from Gobblers and he needs help from gyptian because they knew well about the Gobblers then him. So the prediction that I made was the gyptian and the head of the bear will be fight together against Gobblers. Also, I think that Lyra will find his father, Lord Asriel; however, the bear armors did not notice Lyra so she has to fight with bears. The ending of this book will be happy ending I guess. So Lyra's parents will be met together, the gyptian found their children, and the head of bear found his armors. I made the prediction what Lyra will do; however, I think the some of the prediction will be true so I want to find out while reading this
