No doubt that the Games of Thrones, an American television series has continued to warm its ways into the hearts of millions of viewers all over the world.We cant wait to see some of the characters.
The seventh season of medieval
fantasy television series, Game of Thrones, has come to an end and in
its characteristic manner, it wrapped up with a cliffhanger; the fall of
the great wall erected by the men of the Nights Watch.
Rated as one of the biggest productions to air on TV, producers
announced that the next episode, which is said to be the final one, will
air in another 16 months and fans of the show are not too happy about
that. However, some of the characters will not easily leave our memories
because of the fondness we have come to develop for them.
Below are at least five of them:
1. Arya Stark
The last child of Ned Stark (owing to the death of her brother,
Rickon), Arya has been through a lot; arguably more than any of the
Stark kids. After her father was executed by the monster, King Joffrey,
she fled the capital, had run-ins with different gangs, was held in
captivity and ended up with the Faceless Men, a band of executioners who
trained her in their ways. Even though we are thankful that the
adorable Arya can now take care of herself, something about her now
scares us silly. That notwithstanding, we feel we should send her a
thank you note for ridding the world of a treacherous leech like Lord
Petyr Baelish.
2. Jon Snow
Unarguably, Jon Snow is everybody’s hero. He is the one we have all
grown to love. He commanded the men of the Night’s Watch at a very
young age, united the free folks with the other tribes and is
championing the war against Wight Walkers. He has also been named the
King in the North (even though he now pledges allegiance to Daenerys
Targaryen). For what it’s worth, we are interested in knowing how he
will react to the revelation that he is actually a Targaryen, and by
fiat, the original ruler of all seven kingdoms.
3. Daenerys Targaryen
We basically want to see her because we never get tired of her
story; her rising from the ashes of slavery to being the breaker of
chains and the mother of dragons. Her silver hair and beautiful face is
also part of why we want to see her again (and again). Daenerys refuses
to give up her claim to the iron throne, even though she had captured
kingdoms and has already been named queen. We would also love to see how
she reacts to the news that Jon Snow is actually her nephew and the
rightful heir to the throne.
4. Tyrion Lannister
We don’t know what to make of the imp. And even though we can never
get enough of his witty ways and hedonistic lifestyle, some things
about him bother us. For instance, we don’t know what to make of a man
who is in league with an army hell bent on unseating his family from the
Iron Throne. We are eager to see how it plays out between Tyrion and
his evil sister Cersei who wants everybody dead. We also want to know
whose side would come out victorious and what that would portend for
him. We love him though, and we will never forget how he saved King’s
Landing by mobilising the king’s army to decimate Stannis Baratheon’s at
the Battle of Blackwater.
5. Bronn
Foul-mouthed and quick with the sword, Bronn is our favourite
sell-sword who has worked for both Lannister brothers. He doesn’t hide
the fact that he is for the highest bidder. We look forward to seeing
him for two reasons. We would like to know if he eventually gets the
castle Jamie Lannister promised him. We are also interested in knowing
if he caves in and succumb to Tyrion’s offer, keeping in mind the fact
that it was through Tyrion he came to Westeros and had the opportunity
of working in the palace.
6. Ser Jorah Mormont
We know we said five but for kicks, we are particularly interested
in seeing the look on his face when Ser Jorah Mormont discovers that
Snow has been under the sheets with Daenerys Targaryen. Jorah is the
only child of the former Night’s Watch’s Lord Commander, Jeor Mormont,
but he was exiled for dealing in slavery.
His unexpressed romance with the mother of dragons never led
anywhere but she’s glad to have him by her side; lucky even. He had
always expressed his desires to her but for obvious reasons, has not had
a chance to explore. So we want to catch our fun at his expense.
