Game Of Thrones Season 8: 10 Huge Questions 'A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms' Leaves Behind

5. How Many Three-Eyed Ravens Have There Been?

Bran reveals that, as expected, he is the Night King's target, because he's gone after "many" Three-Eyed Ravens in the past. That all makes sense and, wait a minute, MANY Three-Eyed Ravens?

While we know there have been two - Bran and, before him, Brynden Rivers - it's very interesting to hear that there have been enough of them to qualify as being 'many'. We know relatively very little about the Three-Eyed Raven(s), but given the Children of the Forest refer to them as the last greenseer, it's possible the title, as it were, dates back thousands of years, and is passed along every so often.

Quite how the Raven came to be, who was the original Raven, and how many there might've been, all feel like questions the prequel series will get to answering.
