Game Of Thrones Season 7: 12 Big Questions After 'Stormborn'

3. Who Wins The Battle Of The Rock?

This week gave us the first battle sequence of the new season, and the hits are only going to keep on coming. As we see Tyrion outline here, and has been shown in the various trailers (for both the season and the next episode specifically), we're going to get a big fight at Casterly Rock between the Unsullied and the Lannisters.

It looks like an exciting, frenetic battle, and the Unsullied have the element of surprise on their side. Tyrion was previous in charge of the sewers at the Rock, and it looks as though he helps Grey Worm and a few others sneak in, thus allowing more Unsullied in by opening the gate. That said, we've also seen a few Unsullied lying dead too, so they're not going to have it all their own way.

Cersei has struck the first blow this year, so this would even the scorecard for Daenerys, but will she actually succeed in taking the Rock? It'd be a big victory, in terms of both symbolism (as it's the seat of House Lannister) and politically, given it's a very well defended castle, and would make for a great gift to reward loyalty.

Then there's the Grey Worm scene with Missandei. That lovely moment of happiness basically screams Grey Worm is about to die, and he's in danger at Casterly Rock. If he were to fall, that would be a defeat for Daenerys, even if she did take the Rock.
