Tremendous end to a tremendous season.
Thoughts:
- Poor Tommen
- Oh Margaery!
- Septon Unella
- High Sparrow
- Lancel Lannister and Loras Tyrell.. I finally won't need to tell people that they're two different characters..
- Finally a reason to love the sand snakes and their bitch queen.
- Finally Jon Snow parentage confirmed, but on that the questions become:
* Who else knows? We had a hint last season that Petyr Baelish knows. Possibly Benjen too?
* Does the parentage thing matter in the context of the conflicts for power? A bastard is a bastard, he was born out of wedlock and by the rules of Westeros he has no claim on anything no matter who his parents were.
- The King in The North scene is ominous IMO, for Robb Stark reasons.
- Petyr Baelish has it in for Jon now, not good, very not good.
- With the Frey family dead, who rules Riverrun? Should we assume Arya freed Edmund Tully? But he's wimpy and cannot be trusted to pledge allegiance to Jon Snow, I'm gonna go ahead and assume he pledges to Cersei.
- Melisandre will probably hook up with the Brotherhood Without Banners and.. I don't care enough about that story line to think about it, yet.
- Finally we know Petyr Baelish's endgame for sure, it could have been obvious but it always seemed like there could be more to it.
- I feel like it's way too soon for Daenerys Targaryen to start the invasion, story-wise, with all the unresolved conflicts still going on in Westeros, I'll post more on this point separately.
