Wait… what happened?!? Who died?!?
Who is the King? Who is the Queen?
The Game of Thrones Season 6 finale answered a number of questions, posed many more and left viewers absolutely reeling.
Here is a look back at the most memorable moments:
1. BOOM Goes Cersei’s Dynamite
Well, not dynamite. Wildfire. But the concept and result were the same: instead of attending her trial, Cersei BLEW UP the Sept, killing everyone inside. This include the High Sparrow and Margaery.
2. This Will Hurt
But that wasn’t enough for Cersei. She also had Septa Unella imprisoned in the Red Keep, giving the Mountain full reign to torture her previous tormenter with the only caveat being that Unella’s death be drawn out a long, long, long time.
3. A Problem with her Plan
After witnessing the carnage created by his mother, Tommen jumped out a window and committed suicide. Cersei has now lost all her children.
4. But Now She’s The Queen of the Seven Kingdoms!
So she has that going for her at least.
5. R+L = FINALLY!
Yes, Jon Snow is the child of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. He has both bloodlines running through him, he has a claim to the throne… and maybe he can even control some dragons.
6. The King of the North!
By the end of the episode, Jon Snow has been properly dubbed the King of the North. (But he best beware of Littlefinger.)
