I sure hope the woman who wrote a Mary Sue fic about Gregor Clegane writes a romantic epic about Rorge next. Though, that would be a betrayal cos everyone KNOWS that Biter is his one true love. Maybe Vargo Hoat then? Or Shagwell?

Prince Oberyn, ~42, called “The Red Viper”. A renowned warrior and a tall and athletic man “quick as a water snake”. Decided to become Tyrion Lannister’s champion in the Trial by Combat which is to determine the man’s guilt or innocence in the murder of King Joffrey. Did so to avenge the murder of his sister Elia and her children by the hands of Ser Gregor and to hear the man confess these deeds. Poisoned the tip of his spear.

Ser Gregor, –35, called “The Mountain (That Rides)”. A giant of 8feet in height, known for his prowess in battle, for his cruelty and strength. Wields a two-handed sword with only one hand and is clad in an armor too heavy for any other man to wear.

Prince Josua, ~40, called “Lackhand” for the loss of his right hand in a skirmish. A tall and slender man, who has been wandering through the wild for a month with a small party of survivors in search of a place of safety. Beaten bloody by his captor, Thane Fikolmij, the day before for ‘stealing his daughter’. Forced to fight for the lives of his companions, his own and that of his mistress Vorzheva (Fikolmij’s daughter) and their unborn child. Fighting with a sword named ‘Naidel’.

Utvart, ~35, a member of Clan Mehrdon of the High Thrithings. Known for his cruelty and to be a pedophile. Was promised the hand of his Thane’s daughter Vorzheva, which caused her to run from her clan by help of Prince Josua some years ago.

man I really loved tonights episode

that scene where Jaime kills Cersei in the throne room with his Ned’s Valyrian steel, claiming justice on behalf of the Starks and fulfilling Maggy the Frog’s prophecy? or when Cersei stabbed him with a knife and he staggered forward and collapsed on the Iron Throne, mirroring when he killed the Mad King? i especially loved when Daenerys walks in and sees his corpse sitting there and understands what he did.

and the part where Sandor cuts of the Mountain’s head and leaves his body burning? talk about symbolism! i’m especially glad that they didn’t kill Sandor off unnecessarily. i also really liked how he lost his eye in the fight and used the strip of cloth to bind it and how it made him look just like Beric.

that part where Grey Worm stopped the Northmen from killing the unarmed Lannister soldiers was really cool too. you could see how conflicted he was about it, but he knew he couldn’t lose himself to hate. i knew he wouldn’t betray Missandei’s memory.

i was certainly concerned about Daenerys throughout the episode, but she really came through in the end. when she realized that Cersei had hidden casks of wildfire around the city and knew that she couldn’t risk the lives of the civilians with her dragonfire. and how she instead flew straight to the Red Keep to take the fight directly to Cersei? really really good.

when Arya saw Gendry across the battlefield and tried to maker it to him but was being held back by the crowds? that was incredible. and how he could hear her scream his name over the noise of the battle and ran towards her voice even when he couldn’t see her? i can’t wait to see them reunite in the next episode.

I read this damn post back when GOT was ending and thought all was well, since I hadn’t been able to finish the show just yet.

Cersei seemed half a child herself beside Ser Gregor. In his armor, the Mountain looked bigger than any man had any right to be. (…)

“You are going to fight that? ” Ellaria Sand said in a hushed voice.

“I am going to kill that,” her lover replied carelessly
