And now our 'Game Of Thrones & # 39; Season 8 Death Watch begins

Again and again, Game of Thrones tells us that all men must die. (The jury excludes women.) And, in season 8, it seems that they will do it all.

The second episode of the last season was a farewell wave for many characters we know and love before they inevitably bow to the Battle of Winterfell. Really, no one is safe. When asked repeatedly whether the crypts of the castle were a good place – as we have been told repeatedly in the show -, writer Bryan Cogman responded to HuffPost: "No comment. "That being said, here are the people most likely to be at risk in episode 3:

WhyJorah received Valyrian Heartsbane steel sword from Samwell Tarly (John Bradley) in Episode 2, which means he could face White Walkers soon enough.

Crushing estimate: Sam to Jorah: "I'll see you when it's over."

Early Obit: The road was long for Jorah l'Andal. Prior to the start of the series, he sold poachers to slavers and escaped from Westeros to avoid being beheaded. He then spied for Varys (Conleth Hill), was discovered and banned by Daenerys (Emilia Clarke), contracted in grayscale, found a cure and eventually returned to Dany's inner circle as king of the Friendzone, giving him some last?) Tips. He has already lost the honor of carrying his family's sword and, having received the sword from Sam's family, his story seems to be ending.

Chances of dying: Khal is more than maybe.

Why: Theon returned to Winterfell to fight again for the Starks after betraying their confidence and invading their home on behalf of the Greyjoys in season 2.

Crushing estimateTheon to Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead Wright): "I took this castle. Let me defend you now.

Early ObitAfter being raised alongside Stark's children in Winterfell, Theon decided to side with his father and betray the king of the North, Robb (Richard Madden). He invaded Winterfell and burned alive two innocent children, claiming to be Bran and Rickon (Art Parkinson), before Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) eventually took him prisoner – causing him to become "Reek". Following verbal and physical torture at Ramsay's hands, Theon understood the real weight of what he had done and later helped Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) escape the clutches of Bolton's bastard. He fought alongside his sister, Yara (Gemma Whelan), for a few seasons, but soon understood his roots Stark and Ironborn. He is now in the North, ready to fight once again for the Starks. This bow alone is sufficient evidence that Theon will die protecting the three-eyed crow, aka Bran, in a battle against the king of nights and his army.

Chances of dying: "That which is dead will never die." That being said, R.I.P., Theon.

Why: Jaime got permission to fight for life in Winterfell and even made the knight Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie), reinforcing his hard-fought title as a man of honor … who will probably die .

Crushing estimate: Jaime Brienne: "I'm no longer the fighter I was, but I would be honored to serve under you if you had me."

Early Obit: At the beginning of the series, Jaime was definitely not a virtuous man. He was famous for stabbing crazy King Aerys Targaryen in the back after swearing to protect him, and then pushed Bran, 10, out of a window, leaving him paralyzed. But above all thanks to a long trip with Brienne, Jaime ends up becoming a better man, a person who really understands what loyalty means. He finally decided to leave his sister and lover Cersei (Lena Headey) in the dust and fight for the survival of Westeros alongside his former opponents. And it's important.

Chances of dying: Bran told Jaime that he did not know if there would be an "after".

Why: If you book your Carnival cruise at the beach before the big battle, chances are you will not be able to do it.

Overpowering Quotes: Missandei: "I'd like to see the beaches again."

Greyhound: "So I'll take you there."

Early obits: Gray Worm and Missandei came on the scene in season 3, following Dany's dismissal of Astapor, and have since become two of his most trusted advisors. Despite the fact that Gray Worm is spotless – part of a group of warrior eunuchs – the couple also found love in a hopeless place. To be honest, everything is just as well happy. Nobody should be so happy about "Game of Thrones", and that's why their journey can end.

Chances of dying: Do not make any non-refundable payments on this vacay yet.

Why: After waiting for years to feel respected and respected, Brienne is knighted by Jaime at a moving ceremony in episode 2 – making his death seem inevitable.

Crushing estimate: Jaime in Brienne: "Arise, Brienne de Tarth, a knight of the seven kingdoms."

Early Obit: In Game of Thrones, Brienne is one of the only characters ever to be loyal, first to Renly Baratheon (Gethin Anthony), then to Catelyn Stark (Michelle Fairley) and now to Sansa, as honor demanded . She is a warrior like no other in Westeros – do you remember when she beat the mouth of the Dog (Rory McCann) ?! – and will probably defend those she loves.

Chances of dying: "In the name of the warrior, I charge you to show courage."

Why: There has been a lot of talk about crypts in the last two episodes. All of this seems to hint at the idea that something big is about to come down below Winterfell – potentially involving a lot of dead Starks.

Crushing estimate[s]: Gendry (Joe Dempsie) to Arya (Maisie Williams): "It will be safer in the crypt, you know?"

Gilly (Hannah Murray) to the little girl from the North: "I'm going to be in the crypt with my son and I would feel much better with you to protect us."

Jon Snow (Harington Kit) in Bran: "We will put you in the crypt where he is the safest."

Dany to Tyrion (Peter Dinklage): "Ser Davos (Liam Cunningham) is perfectly capable of brandishing a torch alone. You will be in the crypt … you are here because of your spirit. If we survive, I will need it. "

Sam about Gilly and little Sam: "They'll be safe, in the crypt."

Jorah to Lyanna Mormont (Bella Ramsey): "You will be safer in the crypt. We are fighting against these things … "

Early Obit: Tyrion. Sansa. Varied. Gilly. Little Missandei Sam. Unless these characters find a way to save not only children, but themselves, the destruction of White Walker will be much greater than expected. Think about it: the corpses of the Starks of the past equal more body for the army of the king of the night. We do not think the Starks will necessarily be so friendly this time …

Chances of dying: While the girl from the North says to Davos, "All right, I'll defend the crypt then." So maybe everyone will come out alive. Or not. Probably. May be?

WhyHe has just slept with his old friend, Arya. So, of course, he will die.

Crushing estimate: Gendry about White Walkers: "Want to know what they look like? Death. That's what they look like. "

Early Obit: Gendry is the black bastard son of the late King Robert Baratheon (Mark Addy). After receiving a leech therapy from Melisandre (Carice van Houten) – the blood of a king is magical, of course – Gendry finally made his way home to King's Landing before being summoned by Davos to fight the dead beyond the wall. (Instead of fighting, he has run a lot, but you understand it.) Now, he makes weapons to allow the North to defend the whole of humanity – and he will fight alongside his new love, Arya .

Chances of dying"We're probably going to die soon," Arya told him, so 10/10.

Why: Beric is mainly used as a secondary character nowadays, so it seems that his fiery sword is about to extinguish.

Crushing estimate: Beric: "The Lord of Light has brought us all together. It's his moment. "

Early Obit: Beric ran the Brotherhood without banners in the first seasons of the series, ending up on Arya's list at some point after selling her friend Gendry to Melisandre. His most notable contribution proved to us that the people of "Game of Thrones" can come back from the dead, since he was resurrected six times by Thoros of Myr (Paul Kaye). Thoros being out of the game in season 7, there will probably be no resurrections this time around.

Chances of dyingIf the warriors do not have it, the Dog will throw it over the wall of the castle.

Why: When you notice that you and your friends are among the last left of the night watch, and that your friends are both waaay more popular than you, you can probably bet that you are the next to leave.

Daming quote: Edd: "The last man is gone, burn the rest of us."

Early Obit: Eddison, aka Dolorous Edd, is a brother of Night's Watch and a friend of Sam Tarly and Jon Snow. He became aware of it from the beginning, taking command of the wall during the Battle of Castle Black and going to Hardhome with Jon. Edd took command of Night's Watch after Jon's resurrection. He went to the Battle of Winterfell, where he probably will not get away.

Chances of dying: And now his watch is over.

Why: You can not sing a song as sad and beautiful on a montage of characters (possibly) who will die and hope to come out alive.

Crushing estimate: Sing "never wanted to leave" a million times.

Early Obit: Podrick began as Tyrion's squire during the Five Kings War, saving even his life during the Battle of Blackwater. As a gift, Tyrion took him to a brothel where the employees apparently loved him so much that they did not want him to pay for his time. (This is precisely why one of the greatest mysteries of the series remains.) Later, he joined the Brienne service, learning to fight under his command and showing himself a faithful companion. However, as Brienne noted, he still had much to learn before the Battle of Winterfell.

Chances of dying: It seems that we will never know why women love so much Pod …

Why: She will definitely hunt down the biggest White Walker she can find.

Crushing estimate: "I will not hide in the ground. I am committed to fighting for the North and I will do it.

Early Obit: The head of Mormont House came into our lives in Season 6 and definitely found a place in our hearts after declaring Jon Snow King in the north. Since then, she has been telling adults what to do, and she will continue to be the fan favorite from that day to her last day.

Chances of dying: We may have a last Lyanna speech before it's done.

Why: He's been dealing with Giant's Milk too long already.

Crushing estimate: "We will all die, but at least we will die together."

Early Obit: Tormund, once a Wildling on the murder of Night's Watch members, has since become a strong supporter and friend of Jon Snow, former commander of Night's Watch. He would have had his name after being fed for three months in a giant's pacifier. In addition, he is a supposed bear enthusiast.

Chances of dying: Brienne is more likely to have romantic feelings for Tormund than for him coming out of the Battle of Winterfell.
