If Jon makes it to the throne that is the exact and only thing he would do. I don’t know if he’ll even get to that point, but he would be out of there before the seat had even cooled from Cersei.
Yeah true...though again I do think there's a lot of Ned/Stannis in him where he might feel like it's his "duty" to do it whether he wants to or not, or at the very least he could be talked into doing his duty by Sansa/Arya/Bran/Sam.
Jon, Tyrion, Robyn, Gendry, Dorne, Yara, Edmure? Kind of a flaccid ending to give power to two people who suck and one that we don't even know the name of.
Sansa has the North, Vale, and Riverlands. Cersei has Kings Landing and the West Dany has the Storm Lands, Iron Islands, and Dragonstone Dorne is up in the air. The Highgarden area too. Thats ten so clearly i dont even know what the seven kingdoms ARE
I def think Dany should have put some armour on her dragons after the Battle of Winterfell. Only, I am not sure they would still be able to fly wearing any kind of armour that would stop those INSANELY POWERFUL ballista thingies Euron was shooting at them. Also, those things made quick work of ships too so I'm not sure why they didn't just make them in the first place.
Either Varys or Tyrion mentioned last night that “the new Prince Of Dorne” has pledged his support to Dany
The “Seven Kingdoms” were the original distinct kingdoms that Aegon I conquered when he came over to Westeros. (1) North (2) [Casterly] Rock (3) Stormlands (4) Isles and Rivers (Iron Islands and Riverlands in one) (5) Reach (Highgarden) (6) Vale (7) Dorne (was not conquered but centuries later peacefully joined)
North, Riverlands, Storm Lands, Lannisters, Tyrells, Dorne, Iron Islands Okay i think thats it. So Sansa has two. Dany has three. Cersei has one. I think Sam ends up with Highgarden when its all said and done.
Starks, Baratheons, Greyjoys, Tyrells, Arryns, Martells, and Tully...those are the “seven” that the Targs conquered to give that name, right? Edit: shit, forgot the Lannisters
The seven kingdoms was a thing but then Aegon the conqueror came united everything and then divided it in to nine areas.
I can’t believe they’re introducing a new character with two episodes left. Also I have absolutely no idea who would actually be left in charge. I’m sure Jon would run screaming for the hills at even the thought of running the north at this point. He’s going back to that cave to live with Porgs.
Yep, the Iron Islands became distinct from the Riverlands, and they cut out an area to make the Crownlands (ie King’s Landing)
I doubt we'll ever see this dornish prince. I think he's just there as a plot device to remind everyone the rest of the world's still ticking. Who are the current "leaders" of each region? North: Starks Iron Islands: Greyjoys Stormlands: Gendry Whatever the actual name of where Casterly Rock is: Lanniesters Crownlands: Lanniesters Dorne: new dornish prince Vale: ??? Riverlands: ??? Reach: ???
Yeah the storm Kong’s of old were the Durridans I believe. If I remember my lore correctly, the original 7 Kingdoms were North, Vale, Stormlands, Reach, Dorne, Westerlands, and Iron Islands. The riverlands were just an area of land always trading hands between the Storm Kings, Kings of the Rock, and the Iron Islanders. When Aegon came, it was under control of the Iron Ilanders. He melted Harren the Black and all of his heirs in harrenhall, and then raised a new Lord of the Trident at Riverrun. Now we’ve got our “make the 8” with the 7 Kingdoms and the Riverlands. Then he carved out a piece of the Stormlands and the Riverlands for the crown and called it the Crownlands, so that’s 9. Then there’s Dragonstone and all the other islands that I think technically are also under the catagory of Crownlands.
They cast someone to play him at least. Hard to say if we ever actually see him though Actor is Toby Osmond supposedly
interesting. if the kingdom does wind up getting split up, we could definitely see him at the end as part of a council scene. Or just have him there for a coronation. Either way, I doubt he'll be there for you to care about just to help complete the puzzle.
My one gripe about the storyline is that I wish they expanded upon TPTWP storyline or Azor Ahai, they could have easily made this season about WW/Cersei and the next season about whichever one wasn't touched upon. I feel like it's being rushed too much and so much fast travel is involved. The one thing about GoT was the journey. Travelling companions and prisoners coming upon towns/soldiers and the interactions were great but they've lost that recently and it's such a shame. I know this was based on a GRRM outline but I figure they had a good few seasons left if they'd just taken the time to expand.
It was me! First watch through I couldn’t stand the actress’ voice and I was impatient during their story. After binging she grew on me and I didn’t mind seeing her after that.
