Another theory that is bandying about how Tyrion convinced Cersei (since no one knew what happened), was that Tyrion would willingly stand trial after the wars for the murder of his father in exchange.
Saw another theory that he may have told Cersei that her child will be the heir to the throne after Dany revealing to Cersei that Dany can't have children. At least that's what Dany believes and has told him and he has had the succession conversation with her.
IDK about anyone else but I hate this theory. It's utter treachery, and frankly there's no reason why Tyrion's promise would be binding.
I like it a lot more that Tyrion was banking on Dany not having an heir, so he could help implement some democratic institutions to prepare for life after Dany. This fits with Tyrion's general concern over Dany's lack of an heir and his promotion of democracy (w.r.t. the Night's Watch & the Iron Islands)
I don't think Tyrion convinced Cersei of anything. I think her plan all along was to play them into thinking she would pull back and cooperate. She just need it to seem like Tyrion swayed her.

I wonder what the Night King wants. I feel like it's either Jon or Bran. Maybe the whole Stark family for some reason.
I hope we find out the Night King's motivation in the final season.
I know the Children of the Forest created him to fight the First Men a long time ago. But why are they coming back now? _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”
Not oft discussed, but the OST for GOT has been spectacular.
I think "The Truth" is a new piece. I really like it. It's so peaceful and romantic. It sounds like it should play right at the end of the series, with Jon and Dany flying off in the sunset lol

Yes. He needs an Emmy. We've pooped on the last 2 seasons enough but the OST is gd brilliant.
I just don't understand why dany couldn't just have her dragon burn cersei and entourage at their meeting.
Would literally have solved 90% of all problems.
Counter argument she would be seen as a tyrant? Nah. The city is safe. Only the ones at the top are gone. No one else has to burn.......
ah well
I think this goes hand-in-hand with what Jon said about words meaning something. Had she done this she would have broken her word of peace and been just like Cersei. Jon and Tyrion most definitely would not have supported her after that.

The Starks are descendants of the first men so my guess is it has something to do with that. Maybe he has to end that bloodline?

Jaime should get a dragonglass hand and just b***slap the dead
That's a good idea! That gold hand is pretty useless other than preventing a pair of gloves from going to waste.
At least they answered the question I had last week about why Jon's wight-raiding party was fighting them with dragonglass. How did they figure out that dragonglass works on wights when they've only heard it works on white walkers? Prior to that, I don't think anyone besides Sam even used one. They didn't even get to use the dragonglass daggers they found at the Fist of the First Men when they fought at Hardhome.
I was actually thinking about that too, if he could somehow get a blade attached would be even better. _________________ www.lakersbrasil.com

Exactly, I don't really understand it too. It's not like they are a conquering race, or need land to farm or anything like that. They could do just fine living beyond the wall. I really hope they explain this, it just can't be out of "pure evil". _________________ www.lakersbrasil.com

we aint happy until gendry can forge jaime a dragon glass version of one of these things:
Wait, if Jaime looked up to Ser Arthur Dayne and modeled his style after him then why did he not wield 2 swords or at least know how to use both hands? Is this just so there is more significance to him losing the hand?

Well, in Season 6, we were shown that their existence is literally to destroy human kind, due to the CotF. The "absolute evil" interpretation is absolutely an option.
I've been fond of the idea that they exist as counterbalance to Dany's dragons and the reintroduction of magic in Westeros. I guess it's similar to the ending of LOTR, in that I imagine a lot of the magic to fade away? But I don't think there's much merit to that idea.

Playlist of the individual tracks:
Did anyone else go to his concert at the Forum a few many months back!!!???
OMG that was epic!!!
One of my favorite all time concert experiences. Huge screens playing all your favorite scenes plus atmosphere effects!!! Snow, thunder, FIRE! All kinds of crazy GOT lighting ambiance effects.
Djawadi was awesome and gave alot of background and insight into some of the different special instruments he used for different lands, themes and people. I didn't want it to friggin end!
