Howay 12496 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) Aye, I agree with the theory of her booting off after they beat the Night King. They’ve dropped hints over the last season or so she’s a bit tyrannical, and as DK and others have pointed out the scenes where Jon told her about his real parents, and Sansa pushed for the north to remain separate showed her being clearly a bit pissed off at both. I’d say it could be a bit of a red herring but Martin did say the ending would be bittersweet, which having one of people’s favorite characters going mental and having to be stopped before another favorite took the throne definitely would be. The only thing that seems a bit off for me for the ideas that this is it for the Night King storyline is that the menace of the White Walkers and the Night King has been building since the start, for it all to be wrapped up and done with in a big fight would seem a bit quick. I suppose it’s not like a typical enemy where they could be pushed back before another fight. I would have almost preferred it to have focused on that conflict for this whole season before having a final season focusing on the fight over the throne.

The Fish 11647 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I think they'll repel the army of the undead by killing the majority of the White Walkers and thus flipping the switch that controls much of the horde or injuring the Night King who will flee back North. Then some of the living will stay to go after Cersei and the others will go North to end the Night King forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynb 3962 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Most interesting guess I've heard is the Night King isn't with those mounting in the north but that he, his undead dragon and a part of the white walkers army have fucked off to Kingslanding where he will slay Cersei and her armies. This will add 20000 plus to his forces and they will be unstoppable. Winter has arrived. Obviously that's not how it's going to go down but the person that suggested it based their guess on the fact the Night King wasn't in the front line in the final scene of S8E2, when they were gathering.

NJS 4813 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Yeah but he'd be riding the dragon rather than a horse surely? (Of course they didn't show the dragon so you could still be right). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 25038 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) I did ponder it would be really easy to just go round winterfell. How do zombies cope in the sun without SF50 though? Edited April 25, 2019 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 34984 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I think the point is kinda that they bring winter with them wherever they go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GoT world is a planet with an irregular elipitical orbit, which explains the unpredictable winters. The long winter facilitates dead, not the other way round.

Renton 25038 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I'm not, as even the most cursory Google will tell you. Winter causes white walkers, not the other way round. So there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1480 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 In the books it's often mentioned that it gets much colder when the white walkers arrive. And in the show at the end of season 2/start of season 3 when they appear at the fist of the first men, the cold certainly appears to come with them. I think they seem to hibernate in the summer/less severe winters, but come out when it gets bad, but they seem to make it worse too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 25038 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Rather than some crazy belief that the zombies can control the climate, "ewerk", why don't you engage with some proper science? https://io9.gizmodo.com/5-scientific-explanations-for-game-of-thrones-messed-up-5906300 No apologies necessary, I'm entirely magnanimous.

The Fish 11647 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 The Dead walking past Winterfell to Kings Landing doesn't make sense because; they're already at Winterfell, why would they allow themselves to face enemies from both sides? their whole thing has been to sweep south, swelling their numbers as they go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer me that, you pair of bitches iirc Emilia Clarke (and maybe a few others) had it written in their contract not to show any Cheb. I hope Arya did too as frankly I don’t want to see anymore of that, I know she’s 22 but it all seemed very Adam Johnson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
