Game Of Thrones Ending: 12 Disturbing Implications You Probably Missed

7. Sam And The Citadel

The Ending

Despite having once turned his back on the Citadel because of its anti-progressive stance and the stuffiness he faced there, Samwell Tarly ends up being their official representative in Bran's Small Council as he's appointed to the position of Grandmaester of King's Landing.

He's then free to resume his maester work, helping his boss come up with the title for the Seven Kingdoms' history and wearing robes that look like he's fallen into his dirty laundry basket.

But Wait...

Won't the archmaester have something to say when they realise that Sam is literally the worst maester of all time on top of him being the worst Night's Watchman? In order to do both, you have to take a vow of celibacy and Sam's been shagging Gilly all over Westeros for a few years now and revelling in telling Jon Snow about it.

He might be booksmart and he might have peeled Ser Jorah back to health, but Sam is not the archmaester's type of people and him finding out about Sam being in a relationship is surely going to cause friction. And on top of that, anyone seen to be breaking vows in this world never ends well.
