Wth only one more episode I hope no more trial.

It will be the Starks vs Dany now. Bit of hope that Bran will do something this time lol maybe warg into Drogon and start talking to Dany 'but moooom!'

Was the iron throne burned? Maybe no one will sit...all cities will be separated and have their own leaders and have a summit once a year or something.

Well the ending is already leaked and the leaks have been 100% accurate so the fandom are treating them as fact. I really hope the most recent leaks aren’t 100%.

When Benjin Stark last spoke to Brandon Stark, he told him that he would know what to do when the time comes. I assumed that meant the night king, but perhaps its got to do with this?

Where are the leaks???

What are they saying???

I didn't know about the leaks but after checking online I found the following:

• Jon kills Dany, Drogon will carry her body and fly off
• Bran will be the new King with Tyrion by his side
• Jon will go back to the wall

@Invidia said:

Thanks for listing the LEAKS!

From the PREVIEW it's easy enough to see Dany and JON have a falling out.

And I also PREDICTED JON would go back to the WALL area again.

But having BRAN as the NEW KING doesn't work for me. Because he's way too ALOOF and doesn't really interact with other people very well, which is also what a KING would need to do.

He'd be better off being some kind of a PREACHER or a RELIGIOUS LEADER or a SAGE or FORTUNE TELLER.

Tyrion would be a much better KING, because he's also interested in READING about the PAST and has a better grip on how to interact and deal with other people.

And what would give Bran more right to the throne than TYRION???

With Dany dead and Jon gone, wouldn't Tyrion be the next one in line with rights to sit on it???

If you want to look at an order of succession according to the rules of the realm, assuming there still is an iron throne, then Tyrion has no claim. The iron throne was controlled by House Baratheon, not Lannister. Cercei technically had no claim either after the deaths of her children. Gendry, as the last surviving Baratheon, would be next in line. Yes, he is a bastard, but he was given a noble title by Dany so I think becomes eligible. He then marries Sansa or Arya to ensure the loyalty of the north.

@Invidia said:

Thanks for the clarification JB.

Was Dany aware of what she was doing when she declared him to no longer be ineligible to sit on the throne???

So if BRAN ends up sitting on it he would also have no right to do so???

Not by right of descent. Maybe they decide to choose a leader by consensus. In that case it could be anyone.

I don't think Dany was consciously making Gendry legit to put him in the line of succession. She gains his loyalty. Or so she thinks. She doesn't know about his tryst with Arya.

@Invidia said:

Thanks again for all of your replies which have been very helpful in understanding things JB!!!

Yes DANY thinks she's being VERY CLEVER with the way she does things, but she's also stabbing herself in the back by making that character have a LEGIT right to the THRONE that she herself wants so badly.

If they decide to chose a RULER by CONSENSUS, that would probably also PISS her OFF enough to try to DESTROY still another KINGDOM.

Thank you, I love to talk about this stuff.

Just really stoked to see on how it will end, good or bad lol

No way they will "find democracy" over night.

More likely they will find religion.

@Invidia said:

I predict it will end with the people being FED UP with EGOMANIACS like CERSEI and DANY who want to RULE the KINGDOMS, and with an ISSUE of something like the DECLARATION of INDEPENDENCE which states they will ELECT their own RULER from that point forwards.

And If the THRONE has been DESTROYED and reduced to ASHES, that could also be what motivates people to REFUSE to allow anyone else to try to CREATE another NEW THRONE for someone else to sit on.

In other words, THE GAME of THRONES ends with NO more THRONE to SIT UPON.

Naw they’re not gonna have a collective epiphany and discover democracy.

Truly this is this decades "Lost"! If the ending is a non-ending with no one on the throne or in a position of leadership... the screams of fans will surely reach the Gods!!

Hey,maybe those crows sent by Bran mid-night battle were to other allies too far for the fight and telling them of the mad queen? What if Sansa and the new Iron Fleet attack Dany and her troops, manage to neutralize the dragon (dragons can be poisoned), and win the throne??

The dragon is the issue. She never apparently needed three she only needed one well trained dragon. We do not know how much time passed between the ambush and the sacking so I imagine Dany spent hours training Drogon to dart, advert, become a harder target to hit

Her troops barely did anything but pillage and kill after the surrender. Just a girl and her dragon! So she needs no troops as long as she has the dragon. Without it... she is defenseless. I never recall her ever fighting with a sword or crossbow or anything Her only invulnerability is fire The Unsullied and Dothracki have seen her walk through flames but no one in the north has. She could set something ablaze with her inside and maybe an assembly like the Dothracki counsel in it too; and emerge unscathed; making her a God in the eyes of the remaining people.

Dunno... tomorrow ought to be the greatest finale in TV history or another too fast quick ending.

As for the probably right spoiler ending... another piss of everyone ending. And Bran on the throne is nonsense as others have said. Sansa would be best, or the last Baratheon, or even Tyrion with Sansa as his queen uniting the north and south. BUT this is the season of quick not always good tying of loose ends.

Why is there a need for a wall when the dead have been destroyed and the wildlings are pals now??

@Invidia said:

Didn't CERSEI already BLOW UP and GET RID of the RELIGIOUS FANATICS by using that GREEN FIRE stuff???

Since someone compared their Civilization to being like ours during the MIDDLE AGES, wouldn't it also be time for THE ENLIGHTENMENT phase where SCIENCE begins to challenge what RELIGION has to say the same way as GALILEO did when he pointed out how the EARTH goes around the SUN and that it wasn't the other way the way the POPES insisted it was???

So with the FANATICS out of the way one would also think they might be ready to try another NEWER, DIFFERENT, and BETTER way of life???

Before the DECLARATION of INDEPENDENCE THE VIKINGS also had and used a DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM of GOVERNMENT where they voted for their RULERS in what they would call THE THING.

And in the US the NATIVE AMERICANS also had a FEDERALIST form of GOVERNMENT that we've copied where they also had a more DEMOCRATIC way of life.

So after all they've been through with having MAD KINGS and QUEENS in POWER (DANY'S FATHER/ DANY/ CERSEI/ her SON Geofrrey, etc.) it wouldn't be UNHEARD OF for them to decide to CHANGE their form of GOVERNMENT.

That whole evolution of medieval to renaissance world took centuries of city states fighting each other and evolving into nation states fighting each other, of which religion was a part as was politics of the Spanish inquisition etc and I can't stress's this enough many many many wars .

I'll stand by my theory which I posted recently.We will end with a bunch of guys sitting around a board game,and one of the guys says "The end." Then everybody will realize that everything that has happened in this show is just a story told by a bunch of guys playing a "Dungeons and Dragons" type game.

After reading some spoilers for the ep from a fairly accurate so far site I'd rather have your ending than the yawn-fest we may get tonight. OR everyone sitting around a round table eating to a medieval band paying Journey's "Don't Stop Believing"!!
