This new picture of the season 8 of "Game of Thrones" has an important clue to a theory of opening credits

In case you're wondering, yes, Bran Stark, aka the three-eyed crow, will do a lot more watching this season. This was revealed in the photos of episode 2 of Game of thrones Season 8 published on Wednesday, April 17th. But that's what he looks who counts. It seems that the new Eu the photos include a major clue to a theory of opening credits it has something to do with Weirwood trees.

While these last images of the final season reveal that Jaime Lannister will present himself to the Starks and that Jon Snow could prepare himself for the fight. Seriously, look at Lyanna Mormont's armor! But Bran, well, he's more focused on the Winterfell weirwood tree.

With its white bark and red leaves, it's hard to look away and, in the photo below, Bran certainly can not. His back is turned towards the viewer, which means that his facial expression is unclear. As are the reasons he trails near this tree. Does he wait for someone? Does he smell something in this tree? Can he enter this weirwood?

Of course, we have no idea, this photo does not answer unfortunately. But what's clear is that it's fine now that we need to start talking about Weirwood trees and their role in Euthe last season.

Look at the opening credits of this season and you'll see at the 30-second mark, a weirwood tree grows in Winterfell. It is the largest flowering we have seen of this tree, also called heart tree, because its sap is red like blood. Not to mention that one of these trees was used by the children of the forest to create the first white walker.

As Bran learned during Season 6, the forest kids stabbed a human with an obsidian blade in the heart in the hope of making this ice monster an ally. . They wanted the White Walker to help them kill the First Men before they killed all their trees. Obviously, it did not work.

But beyond being his point of creation, Thrillist noted that there was a meaning between the White Walkers, the Weirwoods and the Spiral ones. After the creation of the first White Walker, a spiral pattern appeared and the walkers recreated these swirls again and again. More particularly, during the first episode when the wilding body parts are scattered in this spiral formation. They are linked to these trees in a way that we still do not understand.

As The Verge points out, weirwood has the power to remove revived bodies or bodies. Like dragonglass, could weirwood bark be used to kill them? Could the key to eliminate the king of the night and his dead army be attached to these trees? Is this what Bran discovers in this picture?

Or, as Mashable asks, is it the Bran link to the tree of wood that we should examine? It was beyond the wall that Bran met the children of the forest and had learned the creation of the White Walkers. Now that he is in Winterfell, is he the reason why he is so flowery?

For now, we do not know what Bran's interest is for this wood grain or its connection to it. But, we can assume that when it comes to these trees, there is more than what we see. And it is possible that the three-eyed crow is the only one who can see it.
