As far as fictional worlds go, the places in ‘Game of Thrones’ seem like horrible places to live.
At least Middle-earth, from Lord of the Rings, has the Shire — all Westeros can offer is deadly weddings, human sacrifices, King’s Landing probably smells putrid (there’s literally a place called Pisswater Bend), and oh yeah, now there’s fire-breathing (ice and regular) dragons roaming the skies.
No wonder everyone in the first batch of promo photos from the final season of Game of Thrones appears to be depressed. And frankly, worried. Can you blame them? Season eight is going to be “bloodier” and have “more death… than all the years before,” according to Sophie Turner, and there’s a good chance that many (most?) of our favorite characters won’t survive. So, based on the photos provided by HBO (theories and interviews were not considered), let’s rank them, from least to most worried-looking.
Daenerys Targaryen
HBO
Dany’s had a rough go of it, what with the whole “creepy brother forcing her to marry Aquaman” thing and all the assassination attempts, but she looks mighty chipper now. Maybe it’s because she finally found a lover worthy of the Mother of Dragons, or… nah, it’s not that. Daenerys is probably playing nice to the fine folks of Winterfell — but when she discovers that she and Jon are, oops, related and have committed incest (happens), she’ll have more to look worried about.
Tyrion Lannister
HBO
Tyrion is THIS CLOSE to revisiting his emo phase. He’s in love, but the object of his affection has found someone else. Also, his sister wants to kill him, he committed patricide via crossbow while his father was on the toilet, and he really needs to comb his hair. Tyrion’s eyes look heavy and sad, and as Varys once said, he’s “one of the few people alive who can make this country a better place.” Characters who can improve Westeros do not have a good track record on Game of Thrones.
Oh, there’s more, much more so read on…..
