Game Of Thrones Season 7: Everything We Know So Far

2. Daenerys At Dragonstone

Game Of Thrones Season 7

Speaking of the new teaser, it does confirm what was previously only a rumour: that Daenerys will be making Dragonstone her base when she does eventually arrive in Westeros.

That makes a lot of sense, because Dragonstone - first created as the Westernmost outpost of the Valyrian Freehold, long before the Doom - became the original seat of House Targaryen when they settled in Westeros.

It's a heavily fortified castle, with stone carved to look like dragons. It passed to Stannis Baratheon after Robert's Rebellion (not that he was all that happy about it), but given he abandoned it to head North, there's a vacancy that Dany is coming home to fill.

The teaser gives us our first look at the castle's Throne Room, something the Mannis never had much use for, and it certainly looks impressive. Still, she'll have her eyes on a different Throne in a different room as the season progresses.
