Game Of Thrones: 8 Moments That Foreshadowed SPOILER'S Death

3. Bran's Vision

Going back to the Night King more specifically, and we have Bran's vision from Season 6, which shows the Children of the Forest turning someone into the Night King.

There's a lot of focus on who that is - he's probably not a Targaryen - but the more important thing is the how.

As we see through Bran's vision, the Night King is made by the Children stabbing him with a piece of dragonglass. It's this connection that then allows dragonglass to kill White Walkers. It was being stabbed with a dragonglass shard that started the Night King. Being stabbed, in the same place, by a Valyrian steel dagger (a metal that seemingly has some kind of link to dragonglass, since both can kill a Walker), kills the Night King.
