Game Of Thrones: 10 Things That Must Happen Before The End

Game Of Thrones has sure put fans through the ringer these past six seasons. They’ve witnessed beloved characters die horribly, old enemies becoming allies, and an elaborate game of musical chairs regarding who sits on the Iron Throne.

It’s addictive drama like no other, but just like finishing a marmite and pineapple pizza, all good things must come to a close. With the season six finale the pieces are in place for an epic climax, with all the warring factions headed for a collision course with each other. With only thirteen episodes before the end, speculation is rife about how events will play out, and there’s no shortage of theories for fans to subscribe too.

Setting those theories aside, there are certain things that must happen in the final two seasons. Major storylines and character arcs that have to be paid off before the credits roll for the last time, and here are ten events that need to occur for fans to be satisfied.

Winter has been coming for a bloody long time, but it finally arrived in season six. the White Walkers are on their way, and they’ll likely cause a lot of trouble for Westeros, what with the whole spreading death thing.

They have a literal wall to climb first, meaning it must come down for them to succeed. The Wall is one of the most iconic elements of the show, so seeing it collapse and the White Walkers pass through is going to be a major moment. The only question is how exactly will it come down?

All signs point to poor Bran playing an unwitting part since the Night King touched him. This previously allowed him to defy the magic warding him away from the Three-Eyed Raven’s cave, and since the Wall uses the same magic – and Bran is set to travel beyond it – it looks like he’s part of the King’s plan to pass through.
