It could just be that the path of her story is very different but she ends up in the same place as the TV series.

Spoiler:

Or maybe she'll find out that he was actually behind everything that started the war and because of that alot of her family dying? That would probably have a similar effect on how she'd end up hating him

I'm wondering will Tyrion end up riding a dragon alongside Dany, that'd be pretty cool, also

Maybe spoiler, theory

Spoiler:

I think the theory about him being the Mad Kings son instead of Tywin might be right, the dragon having three heads being him, Jon and Dany

It's an interesting theory and one that I think will likely be correct.

I wish we could see Selwyn Tarth next season

I definitely think the last scene of the last episode will be the White Walkers breaking through the wall and killing the Night's Watch and Bran will be to blame since I think that if he passes through the wall the Night's King will be able to as well due to Bran being marked by him. We'll see glimpses of the White Walkers as usual throughout the series but the next series is going to be focused primarily on the Battle of the Queens.

Melisandre's going to end up on Cersei's side albeit temporarily I think, if they plan on Dany v Cersei being a season long arc then they need to give Cersei something that could allow her to hold off Dany. I did have an interesting thought about Cersei in Season 8, she'll lose the throne by the end of S7 but I actually think she could end up involved with the White Walkers after she's deposed and on the run. I've got a feeling she'll end up running straight into the White Walkers and will be turned into a WW, becoming the new Night's Queen in the process. Of course I don't know how but that's my thoughts.

Stoneheart's never appearing but I do think that Arya could play her role, she'll get entangled with the Brothers without Banners and she'll use them in a similar fashion that Stoneheart did.

Euron will be offed quickly I think, I think his role in the TV series was just to force Yara and Theon into taking their ships to Dany. I can't see him being kept around for very long.

Jaime will kill Cersei and then himself in time for Tyrion to get back and see them both dead. I just hope Jon and Dany don't just team up and fight the white walkers and create a democracy or God forbid get married, because that would be too fairy tale for my liking.

The witch's prophesy to Cersei was that she would have three children who would all die, and that she would be killed by "the little brother" - part of why she has always hated / distrusted Tyrion. But it's looking more likely that the prophesy is referring to Jaime (who is the younger twin, Cersei born first) and that he will be the one to kill her. Especially as she seems to be going full on Dark Side whereas he's shown constantly struggling with his morality. He claimed this season that him and Cersei are all that matters, but in a way that made it obvious that it's not true. I'm not sure that Jaime will kill himself... possibly will be killed by The Mountain (e.g. Mountain will be trying to get to Cersei to protect her, Jaime will succeed in killing her just as The Mountain bursts in...)

I think a Dany / Jon alliance is inevitable to be honest. They both have the same basic principles so there's no basis for conflict, plus Tyrion knows both of them so it wouldn't arise from "confusion", he'd just be like "Hey you two will probs get along". Most likely they will require their combined armies to take on the White Walkers (Dany will lose a chunk of hers taking Kings Landing) but I don't think that means "fairytale"... I suspect there's a whole lot more to the Night King's army than has even been hinted at so far. I'm envisioning a "dead as far as the eye can see" scenario there. I doubt both will make it to the end of the series alive.

S7 predictions

Daenerys will spend half the season on a boat
Arya will kill Melisandre
Littlefinger will die
Sansa will die
Bran will accidentally cause the fall of the wall
Bran will reunite with Jon/Sansa
Dany will take the iron throne with no issues

[Tom4784]

Spoiler for the next seasons perhaps?

Spoiler:

Lena Headey's contract has been extended until Season 8 so I don't think she's going to lose King's Landing quickly and she won't die when she does lose the throne. Makes sense if Season 7 is all about wrapping up the power struggles to leave everyone vs the White Walkers for Season 8.

If Daenerys spends half the season on a boat I will rage. I definitely think Sansa and LF will die though.

[Shaun]

...there's a season eight?

[Glenn.]

Spoiler:

is Dany actually heading for Kings Landing? I assume she's going to stop off somewhere?

yeah, 7 eps next season then 6 after

Apparently S7 is 7 eps long and S8 is 6 eps.

[Shaun]

oh. how pointless

Spoiler:

I'd imagine Jamie kills Cersei for what she's done to Tommen but that'll be the end of season 7. Most of that season Daenerys won't be there yet or she'll be arriving at somewhere a little far off from Kings Landing. Either way I CAN DO WITHOUT THAT TIRED BITCH.

So I guess they'll wrap up all of the North stuff in s7:

- Littlefinger will probably end up trying to oust Jon or something, kill off that little breastfed child and blackmail Sansa into at least letting him live up to his nickname.
- Arya will continue her reign of terror. I THINK this would be the only opportunity for Stoneheart to appear, to show up and appeal to Arya's new dark side and end up POSSIBLY killing Brienne for failing her? Otherwise Arya will probably just off a few loose ends.
- The Hound... I really can't call where he'll go. Everyone's hyping CleganeBowl but I can't see how that would happen / why Sandor would want to go to Kings Landing. The Brotherhood without Banners, idk, I just don't see their direction atm.
- Bran... I really don't care, babes. And all of his revelations, finding out Jon is a Targaryen, etc etc - I don't understand how that's going to have any weight, I don't know why anyone would believe a cripple in a tree. I can't see him being kept around for long other than for refreshing the viewers' memories about the show history. Can see Meera getting killed.
- And of course the Walkers will arrive... not sure how they'll deal with them really since the only one to my knowledge with a Valeryian Steel sword is Sam and he's pissed off to run a library with it. Dickhead.

Outsider shots: I'll hope for a check-in with Jorah (maybe Lady Mormont can send him a nice gift basket to deal with his inevitable death), maybe even a little shot of Gendry sailing in the background. "IS THIS WINTERFELL?" "NAH LOVE FIFTY MILES NORTH." And as long as the glimpses of Daenerys dealing with seasickness don't include any dialogue from the ****ing Martells I'm happy.

I would assume she's headed for Dorne, to be joined by the Martells, and then work her way up towards King's Landing picking up the Tyrells along the way. That would be a huge attacking force... however, I have a theory that they're going to run into Euron Greyjoy half way and there will be a sea battle, Dany obvz winning but losing ships (and some of her army) along the way. Like this: (caution: awesome grafixes)

[Tom4784]

I do think Euron will be Dany's first hurdle but I can see them bumping him off quick, he's served his purpose and I think they'll want to focus more time on Dany vs Cersei since that's more compelling. I doubt she'll be on the boat for any longer than an episode especially if there's gonna be less episodes per season.

Next series is going to have a rapid pace, I think.

[Shaun]

Would be quite fitting if they just had one of the smaller dragons fly back to the fleet and drop Euron's head onto the deck out of nowhere really, he's that little compelling an antagonist.

Here for this tbh.

[Scarlett.]

Honestly I wish he'd have actually drowned in that ceremony from when he became King, would have been hilarious.

She already has the Martells. Their sigil was on some of the boats, which explains Varys being on Danys ship.

[Glenn.]

Or whoever has the sun spear as their sigil I don't know.

[Glenn.]

I'm presuming Dorne? If that's so then she's got to be nearly at Kings Landing according to that map yes?

[Scarlett.]

I think the Tyrell ships were also in the fleet.

It is, yeah, but surely it wouldn't make sense to send all of the armies from Dorne along with the ships... For one, Varys originally went to get ships to bring Dany's armies to Westeros, they didn't have the Iron Island ships or slavers ships when he left (so they would need to go there empty) and for another it wouldn't make sense to send them on a long sea journey there just to bring them back... Which would weaken them slightly. So if Dorne is sending men as well as ships it would make more sense for them to come back via Dorne to "merge". Maybe the writers don't think about it in such detail though
