Game Of Thrones Season 6: 10 Things You Can Expect To Happen

8. Arya Will Return To Westeros

Arya's storyline stalled in Season 5. The House of Black and White offered much, but only delivered a few dimly-lit sequences where questions are asked and answered in cryptic riddles. The back-end of the season did kick up a notch, and Arya was left on a great cliffhanger, but I wouldn't be best-pleased if I were forced to sit through a similar grim thread in Season 6. That way of thinking has led many to expect Arya will return to relevance very soon, and that would mean returning to Westeros.

It might not happen because... Arya is blind, she has not completed her training, she has no means of travelling back to her native continent, and she's likely to be pursued by the Faceless Men on the return journey. I certainly feel like Arya has to return to Westeros as soon as possible, but the youngest Stark girl has not become 'no-one' yet, meaning there are still plenty of loose ends she must tie up in Braavos before hopping onto a ship.
