Cersei is the wild card—her paranoia and love for her children might be her undoing. Many believe she’ll die by Jaqen H’ghar’s hand (the Many-Faced God’s assassin) or be betrayed by Jaime, the one person she trusts. Cultural reference check: Think Shakespearean tragedy—the doomed lovers trope, like Romeo and Juliet, but with more incest and wildfire.
For Jaime, a redemptive death alongside Brienne of Tarth would satisfy fans, but showrunners love subverting expectations. He might kill Cersei to save King’s Landing, then die in her arms. Easy-going tip: Don’t get too attached to any fan theory—Martin and the showrunners are masters of the double bluff.
How Does 'Game Of Thrones' End? A Breakdown Of The Series Finale
The North Remembers, But Does It Survive?
The Starks are the heart of the story, and their survival feels crucial. Sansa might become Queen in the North, ruling independently, while Arya could vanish into the west of Westeros (a nod to the “what’s west of Westeros” meme). Jon? He might end up beyond the Wall, where he truly belongs.
But here’s the twist: Bran Stark, the Three-Eyed Raven, might be the ultimate winner—a semi-immortal being who sees all time. That would be a very Game of Thrones ending: the weird kid in a wheelchair becomes king. Fun fact: Bran’s actor, Isaac Hempstead Wright, was told the ending in a secret meeting—and he cried. That’s either sweet or devastating.
