Game of Thrones Season 8 marks the end of a journey that began many, many years ago. Decades for the original fans of George R.R. Martin A song of ice and fire . And as Game Of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. At the end of their match, we decided to give our best guess as to who would live and who would die during the last season.
Do not forget, valar morghulis .
Jon Snow (Harington Kit)
Prediction: Dies
We begin this article by acknowledging that our beloved King of the North will join the last Stark to hold such a title in the crypts under Winterfell . This is not an easy prediction because Jon Snow has become the type of highly imaginary hero we can all claim … and that is why he is doomed. The fiction of George R.R. Martin is based on the sad reality that life does not work like in storybooks and songs. Aragorn might have married the love of his life and dominated at the end of Lord Of The Rings but that is why Jon Snow will never do it. The happy ending, of course, is for Jon Snow to marry his Aunt Daenerys and restore peace to the kingdom by uniting the lords of North and Southron, fire and ice. But every time a Stark heads south, it always ends in a disaster. Jon's real name might be Aegon Targaryen, but it's a stark end-to-end (just ask his black brothers who stuck it to the wall). His place is north, which is why his story could never be happy as a king of the seven kingdoms alongside his lover. Jorah Mormont might have predicted that Jon Snow would have children and grandchildren in season seven, but Beric Dondarrion in the same episode reminded Jon that they were about to borrow. As men who have deceived death, the happiness of the world does not belong to them. Once Jon Snow's job is done to stop the White Walkers, the god of death will have his due and the crows will feast.
Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke)
Prediction: Lives
Still, I do not believe that a song is as painful as that which is prescribed for Ice and Fire will die in despair. There must be hope for the future, and this destiny will manifest itself is the face of the monarch most equipped to reign. All that Daenerys Targaryen and her legion of titles have endured in the past seven seasons has prepared her to become the rare thing: a Just Queen. As a woman who gained hard-won wisdom during her victories on the battlefield in Essos, she went from bottom to top while seeing the price badociated with that and every presumed triumph.
She will be able to unite what remains of Westeros once all this is over, which would seem like an order. I also think that she is the only woman equipped to see the situation as a whole. She promised to break the wheel, and if she does not have any human children (or even if she does it from a father who, like Rhagear Targaryen, will not know his final offspring), she may realize that the future is better built queens, but a form of rudimentary democracy. Tyrion Lannister alluded to this for her in Season Seven by asking her to think of the Kingsmoot on the Iron Islands and how the Wall selects the new Lord Commanders. She will encourage the revival of Westeros by forming a parliamentary system and will rule without a husband, like Elizabeth, at least at the end of the final credits. After all, it is partly inspired by Henry VII, the Tudor king who ended the Hundred Years War and whose granddaughter Elizabeth ushered in the golden age of Britain .
Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner)
Prediction: Lives
How can she not? Sansa Stark may have suffered more than any other character and emerged stronger on the other side. She also carries power much more comfortably than her stepbrother / cousin Jon Snow. After Jon's fall, there must be a Stark in Winterfell, and neither Arya nor Bran seem to be equipped or interested in running their childhood home. As Arya says, the title of Lady of Winterfell suits Sansa. Similar to Daenerys, Sansa's long and cruel road has prepared her not only to survive but also to thrive on this ruthless land, turning her from a naive girl to a young woman who may be too cynical but crafty . She will master Petyr Baelish and make sure that his family and all that remains of Winterfell remain in the next generation.
She would also make an excellent Guardian of the North.
Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) [19659016] Prediction: Lives
George RR Martin admitted that his wife had told him that he should kill Arya Stark, she would divorce her. We believe it too, because we would be as angry as she is. Arya Stark, alongside Tyrion Lannister, could be the best protagonist in the series and deserves better than the death or servitude of feudal standards based on gender.
For this reason, we believe that once the wars are over, she will do what she intended to do season six while he was running away from home Blacks and Whites: she will charter a ship, now endowed with the money and influence of Stark, and will sail westward to this great skyline. Like a Christopher Columbus of Westerosi, she will look for an unknown country. In our leading cannon, they could even name what she will find like Aryica or Aryiana … In any case, her fate is not to be the lady of one. castle or the mother of an attached son. It is not she She will follow the rhythm of her own drum after knowing that Sansa and Winterfell were safe and would someday be a conquering hero, we are sure. The god of death will inevitably have business with her, but as she will tell her at her time in season eight, this case is no longer today.
Stark Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright)
Prediction: Lives
Bran Stark is about to become the new three-eyed Raven. His bow will not be complete until he uses his powerful super powers to prove a few points: to prove that Jon Snow is really a half-Targaryen to the whole world, to rush into frozen Viserion to prevent him from completely decimating Winterfell, and fight in the big final battle. Bran is rather safe since it is meant to replace the three-eyed crow as an old man from the heart tree.
Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage)
Prediction: Dies
In my dream scenario, Tyrion lives beyond this story and becomes the equivalent of the first Daenerys prime minister. But deep inside me, I do not foresee that Tyrion Lannister gets his happiness after all, which is the power and the respect of his capacities. Indeed, he has had both these past seasons and has treated badly to the chagrin of Dany. This may be due in part to the fact that he is more suited as a Queen's hand in peacetime rather than wartime, or perhaps simply because he fists when his opponents are bound by the blood. Anyway, this constant failure will probably be fatal in the last episodes of Game Of Thrones when the real enemy pbades from the status of ice king with the frost in his veins to a Queen of ice with figuratively cold arteries.
He seems destined to make an error which, just like his historical counterpart in Richard III, will unfairly turn him into a total monster by history after an ignominious end. This death, perhaps even more than the second lived by Jon Snow, will be the one that will truly break the audience, like a skull against the hands of the mountain.
Varys (Conleth Hill)
Prediction: Dies 19659002] Part of me would like to imagine the pleasure of surviving Varys after serving Daenerys as Whispers' everlasting master. He survived the fall of his father and the fact that he plotted against her while being indebted to the man who usurped his family and that he has now persevered, too, in front of his suspicions. However, the red woman said that they were both destined to die in this foreign land, and I believed it.
Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie)
Prediction: Lives
Brienne of Tarth is this mythical thing completely foreign to Westeros: a perfect knight. She is still faithful to her oaths and loyalty, and she completed what seemed impossible when both Sansa and Arya returned to Winterfell. She will also survive the onslaught of the upcoming zombie ice, as Sansa will need strong and trustworthy women to defend Winterfell when spring is finally blooming. I do not expect Brienne to have the romanticism that so many fans dream for her, but she will continue to live, which is a source of satisfaction.
Podrick Payne (Daniel Portman)
Prediction: Lives
Nothing better than Podrick. Nothing!
Lyanna Mormont (Bella Ramsey)
Prediction: Lives
Lady Lyanna Mormont … dies? On Game Of Thrones ?! Pfft, it's more likely that she's on the iron throne before the final than she's in the ground. And she will do everything with her Fightin 62 too!
Ser Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham)
Prediction: Murder
The grounds of Winterfell will be littered with corpses of beloved characters after the third episode. And then there is yet another more mysterious battle to come in the fifth episode. Ser Davos Seaworth does not seem to have to survive as a man more prepared for life at sea than with a sword in his hand. His disappearance would also be an ideal opportunity to dread the fright of the spectators.
Tormund Giantsbane (Kristofer Hivju)
Prediction: Dies
Like Davos, Tormund went as far as his bow needs. For fear that there is still a great romance between him and Brienne (improbable), his trip was to make peace with the Northerners south of the Wall and give Jon Snow a reason to trust the wild beasts and fight it. There are only a few rare savages left after Hardhome has found an ally of King Stark-King.
I suppose Tormund will arrive at the fifth episode when wars focus us from north to south. It is also likely that he will fortuitously avoid most of the Winterfell conflict during the third episode, and it would be a show for a savage to experience the magnitude and decadence of King & # 39; 39; s Landing. I do not think he'll be okay.
Beric Dondarrion (Richard Dormer)
Prediction: Dies
As Beric had told Jon Snow in Season Seven, this world was not meant for them, men who cheated the death. Plus, there is the fact that he's already dead, dead (and forever) in the books.
The Hunting Dog (Rory McCann)
Prediction: Murder
The Hunting Dog is a man who yearns for a good death with the corpses of one hundred enemies, preferably desecrated, around him . He will have it too, although these corspes may be alive. As a man who despises shooting, he will find himself in a precarious situation, where fire is his best defense against an Army of the Dead. Yet, it is as useful in a world of peace as a battle hammer. Whatever the world to come, it will not be up to him to do it, and the emotional trauma of seeing the dying Dog back on the side of a hill, this time for real while the young Arya eve , is too heartbreaking not to be exploited.
Ser Jorah Mormont (Iain Glen)
Prediction: Death
Ser Jorah is ready to die of a happy man. Just last season, he sacrificed all his life to defeat Greyscale and return to Daenerys. A hug from the queen that he once coveted would be enough for all his desires and now, he engages in his protection until the end. And it will be very bitter since the trailer of the eight season of Game of Thrones shows Jorah at the horesback leading the first wave of defenses against the White Walkers. It is unlikely that his death will be pleasant.
Missandei (Nathalie Emmanuel)
Prediction: Lives
If my speculations deprive Daenerys of his new love and his most reliable adviser, then surely in this scenario at least his other closest confidant and the best must live … no?
Gray Worm (Jacob Anderson)
Prediction: Dies
On the other hand, there will still be a tragedy to go around. The cutworm, like old Ser Jorah, seems to be at the head of Winterfell's defenses in the battle against the dead. I do not like his chances.
Samwell Tarly (John Bradley)
Prediction: Lives
Samwell Tarly must live if nothing else but to show all these old masters in Oldtown by writing the definitive story of their time: A game of thrones . See what they have put up there? Plus, he is likely to be pardoned and made Lord Horn Hill now that his brother and father are dusty in the wind.
Gilly (Hannah Murray)
Prediction: Lives
Why do they kill Gilly? It would be too cruel. She will make a charming lady from Horn Hill!
Gendry (Joe Dempsie)
Prediction: Lives
Not only will Gendry live, but the boy will prosper, damn it! He will bear the name of Baratheon after Daenerys or Jon has granted him all rights and he will seize Storm's End with a hammer in his hand, while the ghost of old Bobby Baratheon will amuse himself, somewhere in the ether.
Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen)
Prediction: Dies
This is really the only way to redeem yourself at this point, right? He betrayed the Starks, a fact that Jon Snow said in season seven will never be really forgiven, and he dropped the only person apart perhaps Sansa who cares to know if he lives or dies , his sister Yara. To save her, Yara will be Theon's last act and penance for a life wasted hopefully.
Yara Greyjoy (Gemma Whelan)
Prediction: Lives
Theon is lost and fears that the Greyjoy lineage will be too, Yara will live to bend the knee to Daenerys and save the reputation of his miserable family.
Euron Greyjoy (Pilou Asbæk)
Prediction: Dies
You really think it's coming out of season eight
Dolor Edd (Ben Crompton)
Prediction: Lives
Now that we know the White Walkers, they chose to head south via Eastwatch-by-the-sea, unlike Castle Black, I suspect Dolorous Edd is safe enough. He and Night's Watch will likely be crucial as last-minute saviors at the dawn battle in Winterfell. When the smoke clears, a person close to our hearts must lead the observers. Dolorous is the only one left and he did not survive the battle of the wall to be defeated by a bloody bloody!
Meera Reed (Ellie Kendrick)
Prediction: Lives
Not only will she live, but she will not be slanted in season eight, which is odd because I suppose that She has a much more important role to play in books where her father is alive and well, and can prove that Jon Snow is really Rhaegar and Lyanna's son
Ser Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau )
Prediction: Murder
The fate of Jaime Lannister seems destined to be tragic. The fact that he rides north alone shows how precarious his place in the world has become. Eager to finally respect his optimism and his ideals, he got rid of the love of a sister who also holds the power of her home and lands. Now he will lead the good fight, but far from anyone cares to know if he lives or dies in this fight, with the exception of Brienne.
Shippers hope this will be enough for both of them, but I believe like all other Lannisters, Jaime is on the road to one-way perdition. Whether he's involved in Cersei's death or not, I guess both will leave the world at about the same time, just as they enter the world.
Queen Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey)
Prediction: Murder [19659002] The god of death with multiple faces has long been a life of the red dungeon and, in the eighth season, he will collect. Indeed, Cersei Lannister has appeared doomed to failure for several seasons now. In the last season alone, Benioff and Weiss had to bend over logic to survive as long as she could with her enemies south of Highgarden and Dorne, strangely and suddenly, defenseless. However, she has all the weight of the North and the conquest of the Queen Dragon against her, as well as the Army of the Dead on the verge of wreaking havoc in the south. She also proved to be a poor monarch, winning her crown by blowing up thousands of her subjects. She also seems doomed to a bloody end, just like the last crazy king to rule the Seven Kingdoms.
The question is not so much whether she will meet her failure in the eighth season, but how. Cersei has always feared Tyrion Lannister to be his loss, as Maggy the Frog, a witch whom she visited as a girl, hinted that she would be strangled by her "valonqar" (Valyrian for little brother) . However, Jaime is also younger than herself, even for a few minutes. Like many fans, I suspect that his death could be in the hands of his lover who will duplicate his act of mercy for King's Landing when he killed Aerys II, except that in this case he would follow the rule of law. Another side suicidal. After all, he would murder the mother of his children
. Other scenarios include his fear that a younger queen would be lost to Margaery, the real threat she faced was from the East in the form of Queen Daenerys. There is also the funny idea that it is given to White Walkers, as to all those who deny the natural forces beyond their control. Cersei has a lot of satisfying ways to face his fate, but it will probably be a surprising and depressing one, in keeping with George R.R. Martin's monkey paw story. Whatever it is, one thing is clear: Cersei Lannister must die.
Ser Bronn of Blackwater (1965) Prediction: Lives
Like any good badroach, Bronn will survive us
Ser Gregor Clegane (Hafor Julius Bjornsson)
Prediction: Dies ( still?)
Does this really matter because he's already pbaded the long way to the beginning of season five? Yes, the Red Viper made sure that even if he did not win their duel – although he did not technically lose before deciding to show the spotlight – the mountain would not recover from his injuries . Nevertheless, Clegane has returned from the death of a Franken-Mountain monster. I suppose that he will kill many, many, many enemies of Cersei before putting it back permanently in the ground.
Qyburn (Anton Lesser)
Prediction: Murder
Whoever stays alive when all is over will no longer want that madman. His destiny is linked to that of Cersei, and well …
Edmure Tully (Tobias Menzies)
Prediction: Lives
If we see him again in season eight, this poor and anemic lord will live on. Someone must continue to act as the owner of the riparian lands and, for better or for worse, they are stuck with Edmure since all the other Tully (and all Freys are blessed) are dead. We could see Sansa or Jon pronounce a word just for him so that some form of the old world remains in the new.
Melisandre (Carice van Houten)
Prediction: Dies
How easy it would be to forget it. But yes, Melisandre still has a role to play in this story. The fate of Melisandre worries me. She could be left until season eight like so many others. After all, she has survived everything else for more decades (or centuries) than any of us have realized before! But I am brought back to the nightmarish vision of Arya by Melisandre. She knows that Arya could come and hit her ticket one day. And the Stark girl will be more than likely. Ser Davos is also going for the Red Witch. If their path were to converge towards the end of the season (and they will), Melisandre's fate will probably be as cold as that of her inflamed poor and gentle Shireen. [19659007] Drogon and Rhaegal
Prediction: Dies
For there to be peace, the dragons must leave this world again. While the majestic beasts that gave the Targaryen uncontrolled power 300 years ago have finally disappeared, Drogon and Rhaegal are likely to die this season, leaving Westeros once again a country ruled by men rather than magic. These could also be the most painful deaths to watch if losing Viserion was an indication.
The King of the Night
Prediction: Lives
Some think that the show will end with the king of the night. to rise to his rightful place on the iron throne, how far will there finally be peace. It's a very humorous idea, but too ugly and nasty even for George R.R. Martin. That said, I do not believe that this icy lord can truly be destroyed. Like all the acts of nature, he can be endured, survived, even thwarted, but he will come back someday. It may not be before 8000 years, but it will retire to the country of the always winter … and will come down again. Someone would do better to start repairing this wall now.
Season 8 of Game Of Thrones begins on HBO in the United States on Sunday, April 14 and on Sky Atlantic here in the UK on Monday, April 15
