Game Of Thrones Theories: 13 Epic Season 6 Moments Still To Come

12. Arya Goes Home

She's already on the way home after cutting off the Waif's head and for some reason completely forgiving Jaqen H'ghar, but that doesn't mean Arya's emotional reunion with her home (and her family) isn't going to be incredible. If we're lucky, we'll see it before the credits role on episode 10.

It's probably fairly unlikely, but if Arya arrives at Winterfell moments after the death of the rest of her family (just as she witnessed her father's death helplessly and then almost stumbled on the Red Wedding), it will be an absolute killer.

Likelihood: 5/10

Right now, the series could actually be done with Arya already. Her tiresome arc with Jaqen (with its improbabe finale) is over and she's on the move: strictly speaking she doesn't even need to make it back to Winterfell until episode one of season 7.

But then again, after the relentless murder-fest of season 6, having a happy ending reunion for the surviving Starks, and the formation of a new powerful trio would be perfect.
