Game Of Thrones Season 6: 8 Things You Might've Missed In 'Blood Of My Blood'

2. The Starks And R+L=J

Game of Thrones Bran's visions lyanna ned R+L=J
HBO

Continuing with the other grouped together parts of Bran's vision, which are much more Northern in nature.

We see a few repeated shots of the White Walkers, such as from Hardhome and the previous episode when the Night King grabbed Bran. He also gets to see just how they create White Walkers, seeing the baby being turned, and that the Night King raises the dead, which is probably handy knowledge to have about your enemies.

He also gets to see the deaths of his father, mother, and brother, something he hadn't had the pleasure of before. More pertinent, though, is the presence of young Ned at the Tower of Joy, asking "where's my sister?" This is followed with a shot of a bloody hand, with another hand next to it, and it seems very likely (just look at the sleeves) that this is Ned and Lyanna, meaning we are going to go inside the Tower and get the truth about R+L=J.

Warning: the next entry contains book spoilers!
