So as we now know, Arya and Sansa know who Jon really is and even before Bran told them we saw them being against Daenerys as their queen and that they don’t trust her.
Now, this is something I realized at the very end of the episode when Daenerys and a small group of her people were standing infront of Cersei and her little henchmen. I might be wrong but I noticed something in Danys eyes.
Her eyes are green (at least according to Google because it says Emilias eyes are green) and Melisandre told Arya she would close brown, blue and green eyes forever.
As we already know, she killed Walder Frey (brown eyes) and the Night King (blue eyes).
Now, a lot of people think green eyes mean she will kill Cersei but after watching this episode I have a different theory.
We saw many people questioning Daenerys decisions this episode and I myself thought for a moment “Damn, slow down mad queen”.
Of course, Dany has been through A LOT. She lost her best friend and most trusted advisor, Jorah, lost thousands of loyal soldiers and the man she loves has a better claim to the thrones than she does. Most of her actions are justified. She is hurt and deserves justice, especially now that another one of her children is dead AND her best friend, Missandei.
But still, the Stark girls are not very fond of their queen.
Maybe, it won’t be Cersei’s green eyes Arya will shut forever but Daenerys’.
Maybe she (Dany) will turn mad and do something reckless or maybe it’s just an act of treason by Arya.
It may seem a little far fetched but with what happend this episode, people questioning their loyalty, Daenerys showing a darker side, maybe Arya will think it has to be done.
(I still hope Cersei dies too but that’s a job that can be done by Jaime too)
Before giving feedback:
I know it probably won’t happen. It’s just something I thought of while watching and it would be an unexpected twist but the theory is probably full of flaws anyways.
So I really really loved this episode! Probably one of my favs.
I have to admit the whole episode was a bit dark. I had to roll down my blinds so that my room was pitch black and even then some scenes were hard to see, but that’s what made me feel like I was there - the characters had no idea what was going on and neither had we!
The episode started out great - everyone’s quiet and preparing for battle.
When all the Dothraki started charging at the army of the dead and the light of their swords slowly faded had me shocked. I mean, I was expecting them to be at a disadvantage but losing so fast? Holy shit.
The whole fighting kept me at the edge of my seat but mostly because I was scared for Brianne and Jaime - love them.
Also, Theon. I had my problems with Theon but started to love him again and now… I still don’t want to believe he’s dead. What about Sansa? They had great chemistry and I was rooting for them even though I expected him to die - fighting and protecting Bran.
So, I’m not the biggest Arya fan but she was KILLING it this episode - literally. Did not expect her to kill the Night King. But is he really dead tho? It seemed a little… easy.
Also, I love Sansa and Tyrion - as team and as individuals. Like Sansa said, he really was the best husband. I know they didn’t/don’t love each other like that but at least he didn’t abuse her.
Before I say nothing about Dany and Jon. I was worried they’d be tension between those two but in the end they fought side by side and Dany even saved Jon when he was surrounded by wights. Furthermore, I’m happy no more dragons died. And ghost is alive too!!!
To sum up, I loved the episode. I see people complain about it being to dark but that’s just how it is. The fight took place during night and with limited light available and it gave us this mysterious setting. I cried a few times a lot and can’t wait how they are gonna take on Cersei!
