Game Of Thrones Season 8: 12 Huge Questions 'The Last Of The Starks' Leaves Behind

9. What Happens In The North Now?

After three and a half episodes where the focus was very much on the North, with almost everything happening at Winterfell, the action has shifted south. The story now turns to the battle between Cersei and Daenerys, but what does that mean for the North?

Sansa is still holding Winterfell, Bran is still there, and there are a handful of other characters around but, for now, they seem largely distant from the story, almost like a direct reversal of the earlier episodes.

Will the North come back into it once the fighting is over and the future of Westeros is to be decided? Or could Sansa have a bigger role in the conflict than appears?
