“I think a writer, even a fantasy writer, has an obligation to tell the truth and the truth is, as we say in ‘Game of Thrones,’ all men must die,” Martin said in a 2016 interview. “We’ve all read this story a million times when a bunch of heroes set out on adventure and it’s the hero and his best friend and his girlfriend and they go through amazing hair-raising adventures and none of them die. The only ones who die are extras. That’s such a cheat. It doesn’t happen that way.
Gwendoline Christie as Brienne. Theon Greyjoy Theon and Sansa Stark had a moving reunion in Winterfell, coming after he helped her escape that walking nightmare, Ramsay Bolton. What’s more, Theon pledged to guard Bran Stark, protector of history and human Night King-bait. “I took this castle from you,” he tells Bran. “Let me defend you now.”
Arya Stark Arya is expecting to die like so many other characters, so she spent her final hours doing the deed with Gendry. Just in terms of shock value, Arya dying in next Sunday’s episode would be more devastating than previous Stark deaths; she’s been around longer, endured more and is a more beloved character than the now-deceased Starks. Killing her off would no doubt spark a huge emotional reaction among viewers, so that makes her chances of survival slim.
Sam Tarly, who saved Jorah from greyscale, also gifted him the Tarly family Valyrian steel sword Heartsbane, which is capable of taking out White Walkers. That sets us up to see Jorah engage in some intense fighting. Maybe he’ll have a chance to repay Sam for saving his life?
