7. Bran And Rickon Assumed To Be Dead

Theon killed the farmer's boys in Season 2 after being tricked into thinking Bran and Rickon had escaped, but Season 3 offers a defining moment for the boys, their guardians, and their storylines.

Bran, Hodor, Meera and Jojen split from Rickon and Osha. We haven't seen Rickon since, though he could still have a major role to play. This is where Bran's powers slowly begin to make an impact, and that story is still rumbling on today with Season 6 looming.

It's also incredibly easy to forget Sam crossed paths with Bran at the Wall. Could that come back to relevance in the future? Everyone assumes Bran and Rickon are dead, but Sam knows the truth. He's one of a select few, and that knowledge could be priceless.
