Game Of Thrones Season 8 Trailer: 6 Big Hints (& 7 Questions We Have)

8. The Conflict Between Arya Stark And No One

Game of Thrones Season 8 Trailer
HBO

A girl may be Arya Stark, but No One clearly still exists within her too. Arya has returned home to Winterfell, but this trailer makes it clear that there's still something of an inner conflict as to who she really is and what her mission is. The girl who opens up the trailer is very much Arya, but the one we get here, holding dragonglass and talking about death, is much more like the one we know from her Faceless Man training.

Arya wants to be a Stark again. She wants to be with her family and protect them. But she also wants to complete her list, with Cersei at the very top of it. We've seen her faced with this kind of choice before in Season 7, but it seems she's still struggling with it, and Season 8 will have her attempting to find an equilibrium between the two halves of herself.
