Game Of Thrones Season 6: 11 Things You Missed In The New Trailer

2. Or Most Of It, Anyway

Game of Thrones battle House Umber
HBO

Well, turns out maybe some people are immune to the charms of Ser Davos Seaworth. The heartless monsters. 

This shot appears to be of the Bolton archers, you can just about make out their sigil, and to the right of the image there's another banner - that of House Umber. 

The Umbers have appeared in the series previously, with Greatjon Umber a fiercely loyal supporter of Robb Stark. You would've imagined that would still be the case now, but it appears that they have instead turned to House Bolton. With Smalljon Umber set to assume power in the house it may be his personal option, and probably a tactical one in return for some greater powers or reward from Roose Bolton. 

There's also the fact that Robb has been dead a while now, and the Boltons have consolidated the North, even if it is through force and fear, so some houses are still going to support them, especially after they easily defeated Stannis' army. 

Where this really gets interesting is the fact that, back in Season 3, Rickon and Osha headed for none other than Last Hearth, aka the seat of House Umber. I speculated earlier that the "little man" Ramsay is talking to is Rickon, and with the Umbers on his side, it seems they are delivering the youngest Stark to the Boltons.
