If they don’t make it out alive, Bran Stark’s ravens will swiftly be able to alert everyone that the Great War is truly and finally here. Tormund Giantsbane and Beric Dondarrion, who stayed at the Wall while everyone else made their way to King’s Landing, watched in horror before directing everyone to run. Viserion looked ever the worse for wear, just like steeds ridden by the Night King’s White Walkers, but he was more powerful than ever as he attacked the Wall with nonstop blue flames. After standing the test of time and enemies both human and supernatural for 8,000 years, the Wall finally came down.Įastwatch-by-the-Sea fell with ice and fire as the Night King -now riding an undead Viserion -directed his newly acquired dragon to just burn the whole thing down. Game of Thrones Season 8 premieres April 14 on HBO.Warning: This article contains spoilers from the Game of Thrones season 7 finale, “The Dragon and the Wolf.” That’s probably not the outcome you were hoping for, but this is Game of Thrones, there was probably never going to be a happy ending. So maybe the Night King’s plan is to wait until Dany gives birth before killing her and turning her baby into the ultimate White Walker. ![]() ![]() U/marisaann26 speculates that the Night King’s target could be Dany, but rather than kill her he may turn the Mother of Dragons into the “Night Queen.” This would explain the wizard’s promise that she would be with her “dragons through winter, summer, then winter again,” especially if the Night King manages to kill the remaining two during the Battle of Winterfell.īut here’s another theory: What if the Night King isn’t after Dany but her undead child? As a pure Targaryen, this unborn (and unconfirmed) baby could be the true heir to the Iron Throne. This also lines up with a recent interview with Night King actor Vladimir Furdik, where he hinted that we’ll finally learn what the Night King is after in Season 8, suggesting his target could be one specific character. Fans have speculated that Daenerys could be pregnant with Jon Snow’s child, so maybe that’s how the showrunners plan to fullfill this part of her Season 2 vision. And as we saw at the end of Season 7, it’s already begun to snow in King’s Landing.īut what about her baby? We don’t expect to see Khal Drogo make a comeback in Game of Thrones Season 8, but maybe there’s another explanation. The screams of her baby dragons in that vision also echo the wail of Viserion when he was killed by the Night King, only to be resurrected as an undead ice dragon. “Dany was going to go attack King’s Landing and take the throne by force,” they write, “but she was told Jon and company beyond The Wall need rescuing – goes beyond the wall.” There’s a lot to unpack here in light of the last seven seasons of Game of Thrones and everything we know about Season 8, but as u/marisaann26 explains, much of what we saw in that vision has now happened on the actual series. She seems to consider staying with them, but ultimately leaves, returning to her actual location in Essos where the wizard tells her, “You’ll be with your dragons through winter, summer, then winter again.” Finally, she enters a tent where her dead husband Khal Drogo is waiting with their unborn baby. Then she hears the sounds of her dragons crying and walks out of the room, where she’s suddenly transported to the Wall and the snowy wilderness beyond. During that attempt, she experiences a vision that transports her to the throne room in King’s Landing, except the ceiling is destroyed and it’s snowing. It takes place at the end of Season 2, when Dany has to rescue her baby dragons from an evil wizard. The scene in question was recently resurfaced by redditor u/marisaann26. Warning: Possible spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 8 ahead. In short: Dany may get what she’s always wanted in the worst way possible. ![]() One vision in particular, which Daenerys Targaryen experiences in Season 2, may include a big spoiler about how the Mother of Dragons’ final showdown with the Night King could play out. But now that the end is upon is, it’s worth re-examining some of those weird Game of Thrones moments to see what they could reveal about Season 8. Throughout the history of Game of Thrones there have been a handful of visions and prophecies that didn’t really make any sense at the time. ![]()
