10 Game Of Thrones Characters We Never Saw Die
7. Ellaria Sand
Last Seen:
In exactly the same scene as the last entry, chained up on the other side of the dungeon, watching her daughter be poisoned.
Could She Still Be Alive?
Technically, she probably still is. Cersei's plan for Ellaria was a particularly long and drawn-out slow revenge. While Tyene was poisoned, Ellaria was just left there in the dungeon, forced to watch her daughter die and be helpless to prevent it. Cersei even promised to have Ellaria force fed to make her live long enough to see her daughter's corpse rot away. That could take months or years. So, yeah, Tyene probably is dead by now, but her mother not so much.
What that means is that, should Cersei lose in the coming war and an army of living people seize control of King's Landing at any point, Ellaria's erstwhile allies may well find her still alive in her cell, glaring angrily at her dead daughter's remains and plotting what she might do should somebody ever let her out.
The whole thrust of the Oberyn/Ellaria/Dorne storyline has been a story of how vengeance begets vengeance and ends in a brutal, violent end for everyone. What if there's still one more twist to come in that arc between the two surviving vengeance-hungry grieving mothers?
