Game Of Thrones Season 7 Finale: 7 Things You Might've Missed In 'The Dragon And The Wolf'

4. The Ravens Knew

One thing some fans have been speculating on over the past few weeks is the sound of ravens whenever Littlefinger is on screen, as detailed on Reddit here:

His death in this episode, and Bran's part in his downfall, does seemingly confirm that the Three-Eyed Raven was keeping close tabs on Petyr Baelish at Winterfell. His death scene also refers to a lot of Littlefinger's most memorable acts: his killing Lysa Arryn occurred in Season 4's Mockingbird, the same episode she says she killed for Petyr, which was a reference to the murder of Jon Arryn. The other events outlined, such as Baelish conspiring with Cersei or holding a knife to Ned's throat, took place in Season 1's You Win Or You Die.
