Littlefinger’s scheming earned him no rewards in season seven. He plotted lớn turn Sansa và Arya against one another, encouraging Sansa lớn see her little sister as a threat, & leading Arya lớn believe Sansa was a Lannister sympathiser who wanted to usurp Jon’s crown. With Bran’s help though, the sisters saw through Baelish’s plot & turned the tables by executing hyên for the murder of their aunt. Littlefinger’s throat was cut by Arya using the very dagger with which Bran was almost killed. Despite Littlefinger’s machinations, the Stark siblings ended the season united, recognising that “the lone wolf dies but the pachồng survives.”
Arya’s kill-danh mục, which currently features: Cersei Lannister, Gregor Clegane, Ilyn Payne, Melisandre, and Beric Dondarrion, was what brought her baông xã to lớn Westeros. In the season seven premiere, she used her Faceless Men magic khổng lồ disguise herself as the deceased Walder Frey & fatally poison his entire family in revenge for their collusion with the Lannisters at the Red Wedding. She left only Frey’s young bride to lớn tell the tale, telling her to lớn spread the message “the North remembers.”
Next on Arya’s to-murder các mục was Queen Cersei, but on hearing (from Hot Pie! Hot Pie lives!) that Jon had reclaimed Winterfell from the Boltons, she diverted her journey lớn King’s Landing và instead headed North. On her way home page, Arya encountered her direwolf Nymeria, who’d been living wild since being sent away to protect her from Cersei’s wrath in season one. They had a moment, và went their separate ways. Once at Winterfell, Brienne of Tarth agreed to train with Arya, clearly impressed by her proficiency with a sword.
Oh, and Ed Sheeran was in it. He sang a tuy vậy.
Someone whose name Arya struông xã off her danh sách without killing, Sandor Clegane aka The Hound, continued his search for redemption with the Brotherhood Without Banners. Returning to lớn the cottage of a farmer and his daughter the Hound had robbed in season four only to lớn find them dead, he buried the corpses in atonement for his earlier crime. At the cottage, Sandor had a vision in the flames of the Night King’s army, which pushed the group khổng lồ continue their journey North.
Bran, whose warging & greenseeing powers had enabled hlặng khổng lồ use ravens lớn spy on the Night King’s army throughout the season, also learned some game-changing info about Jon Snow. Bran already knew that Jon wasn’t Ned Stark’s bastard, thinking hyên ổn the love child of Prince Rhaegar Targaryen & Ned’s sister Lyanmãng cầu. Not quite. Thanks to lớn Gilly reading through some old manuscripts at the Citadel, Samwell Tarly learned that Rhaegar had his marriage to lớn Elia Martell annulled, then remarried in secret. Jon’s true name is Aegon Targaryen và he’s therefore no bastard but a legitimate heir to lớn the Iron Throne. Game-changer.
Samwell spent the first half of the season training khổng lồ be a maester at the Citadel in Old Town under the tutelage of Archmaester Ebrose (Jim Broadbent). A frustrating time, Sam was mostly given grunt work and forbidden access lớn the texts he’d come there khổng lồ study in order to learn how lớn defeat the White Walkers. He did however, learn that a vast seam of Dragonglass, a material able to lớn kill White Walkers và Wights, was located underneath Dragonstone. He wrote to lớn Jon about his discovery, which helped to lớn convince Jon lớn accept an invitation to lớn Daenerys’ Westerođắm say base camp.
Sam rebelled against the archmaester’s rules by carrying out an experimental medical procedure on Ser Jorah Mormont, who’d come to lớn the Citadel in search of a cure for his greyscale. In an especially gross sequence, Sam cured Ser Jorah, who then travelled khổng lồ Dragonstone khổng lồ serve Dany.
After the Citadel’s maesters refused to lớn act on Bran Stark’s warning to the Seven Kingdoms about the impending threat from the Night King, either believing it a fantasy or trusting in the impregnability of the Wall, Sam stole some restricted books, took Gilly và Little Sam, và headed North. There he met with Bran, where he learned of Jon’s true parentage and shared his knowledge of Jon’s father’s secret marriage.
Daenerys, meanwhile, had mix up siêu thị at her birthplace of Dragonstone (trang chính khổng lồ the Targaryens before Stannis Baratheon lived there) with a band of allies against Cersei, which included Tyrion, Varys, Yara and Theon Greyjoy, Olenmãng cầu Tyrell and Dornish leader Ellaria Svà. Instead of flying her dragons straight lớn King’s Landing & setting the place on fire like she wanted, Tyrion advised Dany to lớn avoid slaughtering civilians và instead target Lannister family seat Casterly Rock. While the Greyjoy fleet would sail lớn Dorne to mobilise Ellaria’s Dornish troops, the Unsullied would take the Lannister castle.
At least, that was the plan. What actually transpired was that Euron Greyjoy attacked his niece và nephew’s fleet en-route, killing two Sandsnakes and capturing Tyene and Ellaria Svà và Yara Greyjoy. Theon bottled the chance khổng lồ fight lớn save Yara & literally jumped ship before being rescued by the last surviving Greyjoy ship.
Theon và his Ironborn men returned to lớn Dragonstone, where Jon Snow first threatened, then forgave Theon for betraying the Starks at Winterfell. Theon later began to redeem himself when he engaged in a brutal fight with one of Yara’s men who had refused lớn mount a rescue attempt for her. Mid-fight, Theon learned that a weakness can also be a strength when his opponent couldn’t injure him by kicking hyên in the nuts as, well, Ramsay had removed that particular vulnerability.
Speaking of eunuchs và vulnerability, Grey Worm & Missandei shared a thắm thiết scene in which he declared that he now had an unprecedented weakness—her. They shared a night of passion before he went off lớn battle.
Missandei, it’s worth mentioning, had earlier raised an important nerdy translator point about Melisandre’s much-discussed prophecy about Azor Anhì ‘the prince that was promised’ who was destined khổng lồ bring an over to lớn the impending darkness. In the original High Valyrian, ‘prince’ is genderless & could refer lớn either a man or a woman, i.e. Dany is now very much a front runner for the position.
When the Unsullied arrived at Casterly Rock & found it all but undefended, it was clear they’d also been had. Anticipating his younger brother’s military tactics, Jaime Lannister had sacrificed the family seat in order khổng lồ lure the Unsullied fleet lớn a vulnerable position where Euron Greyjoy could destroy it. The Unsullied were thus stranded and preoccupied while the Lannister and Tarly armies sacked the Tyrell castle of Highgarden. Jaime’s plan seemed lớn go off without a hitch, and he killed Lady Olenmãng cầu by making her drink poisoned wine. Before she died, Olenmãng cầu confessed that it was her và not Tyrion who poisoned Jaime and Cersei’s son Joffrey at his wedding. Before she died, she wanted Cersei khổng lồ know that.
Victorious from their defeat of Highgarden, with wagons of Tyrell gold safely transported to King’s Landing ready to lớn pay off the substantial Lannister debt to lớn the Iron Bank of Braavos, the Lannister & Tarly armies then suffered a surprise counter-attaông xã by Dany, Drogon, và the Dothraki. Jaime’s army was routed & he nearly died trying to lớn kill Dany, but Bronn stopped hlặng at the last moment và saved his life.
Meanwhile, invited there by old pal Tyrion, Jon Snow và Davos travelled to Dragonstone to lớn entreat Dany to lớn help fight the Night King. She was sceptical about his claims of an undead army marching South & demanded instead that he pledge his allegiance to lớn her. Like Mance Rayder before hyên ổn, Jon Snow refused lớn bend the knee, saying his Northern people would never accept her as their Queen because of the Targaryen family history. Dany more or less took Jon and Davos prisoner at Dragonstone, but humoured them by allowing them khổng lồ mine the Dragonglass they wanted to lớn fight the Night King.
Jon Snow having banished her in season six, his arrival at Dragonstone meant Melisandre left for Volantis lớn stay out of his way, but not before she and Varys had a frosty conversation in which she told him that both of them, Essosay mê by birth, were fated khổng lồ die in Westeros.
Once hostilities had thawed và Jon and Davos were allowed khổng lồ leave sầu Dragonstone, Davos took advantage of being down South to go to King’s Landing and retrieve royal Baratheon heir Gendry, who’d been working as a smith in Flea Bottom ever since Davos rescued hyên ổn from Melisandre’s clutches và sent hyên on his way in a little row boat. Gendry now carries a war-hammer, just lượt thích his father King Robert, and he knows how to use it.
During his time on Dragonstone, Jon became a more & more trusted advisor to lớn Dany, and her dragons even allowed hyên ổn to lớn stroke them (perhaps recognising his true Targaryen nature). Dany listened lớn him when he told her not to burn Euron Greyjoy’s ships in retaliation for his attaông chồng so that the people wouldn’t see her as just another tyrant.
Earlier in the season, Tyrion & Varys had discussed concerns that Dany’s habit of burning people alive sầu with her dragons might turn her into lớn her despised father, the Mad King. Dany, in turn, expressed concern over Tyrion and Varys’ loyalty to her. Things all got a bit testy.
It was Tyrion who noted that Jon was the latest heroic man khổng lồ fall in love with Dany, an observation she scoffed at until she realised it was true & she và Jon got hot & heavy in the chambers of her ship. Tyrion saw Jon enter Dany’s private quarters (stop tittering at the back) và foresaw trouble from their relationship. It was Jon who questioned Dany’s belief that she was unable to bear children following the witch’s curse in season one. Witches aren’t the most reliable of sources, he sensibly told her.

Dany & Jon’s steamy session came after she’d had flown her dragons to his rescue beyond the Wall. To convince sceptical Southerners of the Night King’s existence, Tyrion came up with the plan of bringing one of the White Walkers’ soldiers khổng lồ show-and-tell, so Jon, Ser Jorah, Gendry, và the Brotherhood Without Banners (incl. the Hound, Ser Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr) volunteered for the job. Things got sticky, however, when they were attacked by a Wight-polar bear then surrounded by an army of Wights and stranded on a roông xã in a patch of ice for days.
