Religion is a massive deal in Westeros, but is there one true religion, multiple, or none at all? It's a minefield trying to extract evidence for each one but the main deities include: The Old Gods (the North), the Faith of the Seven (King's Landing and the majority of Westeros), the Drowned God (the Ironborn), and R'hllor a.k.a. Lord of Light (Melisandre & Co). Each could point to certain moments that would prove their credibility, but it's still unclear. The most intriguing of all is Melisandre's Lord of Light. She clearly harbours great power, as proven by her 'Shadow Baby' but she was let down badly as Stannis' claim crumbled to a horrendous defeat. She will play a massive role in Season 6, but how will her faith be shaken by Stannis' death?
