7 things we learned from the new Game of Thrones trailer

1. John saddles the dragon

Fans have put forward such assumptions for a long time. Daenerys now has two dragons, and in the final battle, one more rider is indispensable. Who can they be if not the Guardian of the North, in which the Targaryen blood flows?

Daenerys always flies on Drogon, so John will get Rhaegal, a dragon named after the Khaleesi's older brother Rhaegar Targaryen and John's real father. Another hint?

2. Gendry will forge the sword of Glory

Some believe that the Valyrian steel blade that Gendry is working on is the legendary sword of the Radiant. It belongs to Azor Ahai, also known as the prince that was promised.

Gendry is the only skilled blacksmith among the main characters of the series, and he is able to forge such a weapon. Very soon we will finally find out who it is meant for and who Azor Ahai really is.

3. Arya will take part in the battle for the first time

The Starks' youngest daughter has a lot of experience in killing people. However, all this time she fought only with individual enemies and did not participate in large battles. In the battle with the army of the King of the Night, the skills of a warrior like Arya will come in very handy.

The girl armed herself with a dagger made of dragon glass and, as we were shown in the trailer, cuts enemies with blows of the sword from a roundabout - a favorite technique of Jon Snow.

4. Cersei is not pregnant

Unlike Jaime, many fans didn't believe that Cersei was expecting a baby. In their opinion, this is just a ploy to make Tyrion think that pregnancy has made her softer and more accommodating.

Judging by the fact that the queen used to refuse wine, and now she does not let go of the glass, this looks like the truth.

5. One more Targaryen will appear among the contenders for the Iron Throne

The man on the ship with the golden cloaks is a real mystery. He is not at all like Euron Greyjoy, who was supposed to deliver the mercenaries to King's Landing. You might think that this blond Jaime, but if you look closely, you can clearly see his unharmed right hand.

According to fan theory, this person could be Aegon Targaryen or Young Vulture - one of the sons of Rhaegar Targaryen, the rightful heir to the throne and John's brother. In the book, he is killed by Grigor Clegane, but some believe that he could somehow survive and is now returning home.

6. Something will really scare Arya

Arya is far from shy, but in the trailer she runs in horror through the crypt, fleeing from some terrible pursuer. With a wight or an ordinary enemy, the girl would surely have entered the battle. This means that something really terrible lurks in the dark depths.

According to fans, this could be the King of the Night himself or one of the dead Starks, whom he brought back to life. Some believe that it could also be Yaken Hgar, who came to punish the girl for betraying the faceless. Although it is possible that Arya does not actually run away, but lures a dangerous enemy into a trap. But who he is is still a mystery.

7. Jaime will die

Cersei is rarely seen crying - the last time she shed tears for the deceased Myrcella. The only one she loves is Jaime. It is possible that in the trailer she mourns him. Unlike her, her brother did not change his promise and went to the North, and it is now very hot there.
