Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that... For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

Not sure if it would have transferred to an IRL "W" for Arya, but it may not have been as far out as I initially thought. |

GRR spends 500 boring pages on the politics of the iron island selecting a new leader. They are the worst books. |

They don't have to follow the book on how Cersei dies, but it will for sure be Jamie or Tyrion killing her in the book, or possibly the Hound. Without going into painful detail, that's just how prophecies work in GRRM's world. Since every single other thing Maggie the Frog predicted to Cersei has been correct, there is pretty much a 100% chance that her prediction of Cersei being killed by a little brother will also come true. That rules out Arya, but not the Hound perhaps since he is a little brother. |

Haha, the Hound is not a Lannister. But he is a little brother...to Gregor. The prophecy from Maggy the Frog said "And when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you."
By using "the valonqar" instead of "your valonqar" when talking to Cersei, she leaves open the possibility that its not Cersei's little brother, but just a little brother. So it won't be Arya that kills her (in the books at least), but it could very well be the Hound. However, that part of the prophecy was not shown on the TV show, so they are not tied down by that restraint on the show. |

It'll probably be Arya wearing Jamie's face for the most epic valonqarness.
