Game Of Thrones: 15 Early Predictions For Season 8

10. Qyburn Tries To Make A Wight

Looking back at Qyburn's reaction to the wight at the Dragonpit definitely seems to suggest that Westeros' chief mad scientist had his attention pricked by the magic. Everyone else who hadn't witnessed the weird, terrifying spectacle of the undead had been rightly scared, byt Qyburn might as well have been sporting a semi-on.

He definitely has big plans for that wight, as Anton Lesser - the actor behind the creepiness - "That's where his head is, you know, the world could end in five minutes, but he is absolutely focused on: 'I have never seen this before, this is amazing I could really do things with this.'"

There are two schools of thought here: either that Qyburn will discover some fundamentally useful trick to dealing with the wights that will help end the war, or that he'll try and harness the magic himself to aid Cersei's cause. In both cases, it's quite likely that Qyburn will try and extract whatever magical source is in the wights, which makes it quite likely that he'll then try it out on someone to see if it works. Because he's precisely that sort of guy.
