Episode 1 - Two Swords
The first episode of the fourth season, Two Swords, refers to the reforging of Eddard Starks greatsword, Ice (a House Stark heirloom), by Tywin Lannister. The valyrian steel that the sword is made of - a priceless, finite resource of exceptional quality - is forged into two smaller swords, one of which Tywin gives to his son Jaime. The scene seems to symbolize the defeat of the Starks and the lack of a threat they now pose to the Lannisters, at least for the foreseeable future, as well as the leadership previously offered by Ned Stark now being replaced by a divided and weaker version. The title may also allude to Aryas sword, Needle, which is returned to her in this episode; possibly highlighting that the Starks are not as entirely defeated as Tywin may think.
