Game Of Thrones: 7 Best Moments From 'The Lion And The Rose'

3. Bran's Vision

Bran and company are now firmly on the path beyond the Wall to look for the Three-Eyed Raven. When we meet up with them this episode, they aren€™t exactly sure where they are going. They are cold, tired, and hungry, which causes Bran to spend more and more time warging into his direwolf Summer. Jojen and Meera insist that he needs to stop, as he risks losing himself. Basically, their situation isn€™t exactly one of comfort. They finally make a breakthrough when Summer alerts them to a weirwood tree. Bran wargs with it and suddenly gets barraged with images of both the past and the future. He sees flashes of ravens and White Walkers; of a snow covered Iron Throne and a dragon flying over King€™s Landing. He even sees his father Ned, and his falling from the tower Jaime pushed him out of, a memory he couldn€™t recall before. But most important to Bran is the image of the giant weirwood tree accompanied by a voice. €œLook for me beneath the tree,€ it calls to him. This is the Three-Eyed Raven, and it is telling Bran where to find him. Of course, it is done so in an overly cryptic way natural to prophetic visions, but at least Bran now knows what he is looking for. Of all the plot lines at the moment, Bran€™s quest is the most steeped in magic, which is where most of the interest in his storyline lies. Who is this Three-Eyed Raven, and what does he want with Bran? He sounds like an old man, but just how human is he, if at all? How does this all relate to the Old Gods, the White Walkers, and the coming winter? A lot of answers to these intriguing questions lie ahead, and it is up to Bran to find them.
