HBO just released the titles and the synopsis for the first three episodes of "Game of Thrones" Season 7 giving the fans something to speculate on. Although vague as always these descriptions do give us some clue about what we can expect from these episodes. And given the fact that we are all eager to find out anything "Game of Thrones" related these days since we are just 8 days ahead of the new season, this new information couldn't have come at a better moment.
Ever since HBO dropped the Season 7 trailers the speculations have gone wild and it seemed almost as we were lost in all that new stuff that trailers introduced.
Fortunately, the first 3 episodes titles and synopsis do narrow down some possibilities. So without further ado let's jump right into each of them.
Episode 701: 'Dragonstone'
Just by the name, we can tell the main focus on this episode. As we found out from the trailers as well as some of the promotional pictures Dragonstone is going to be at the center of attention when it comes to Daenerys Targaryen's storyline.
HBO also dropped the official synopsis for this episode and it states the following: "Jon organizes the defense of the North. Cersei tries to even the odds. Daenerys comes home," Watchers On The Wall reported.
We also find out that "Game of Thrones" showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss themselves wrote this episode and that director is Jeremy Podeswa.
Although this description doesn't say much at all, we can pretty much tell that the new season is going to pick up right where we left off at the end of season 6. It would be just like previous years where the first episode of each season wrapped things up from the last episodes of the previous seasons.
Episode 702: 'Stormborn'
Given the title, we know that this episode will also revolve around Daenerys Targaryen since "Stormborn" is one of her many nicknames. This episode was written by Bryan Cogman and directed by Mark Mylod and the official synopsis states the following: "Daenerys receives an unexpected visitor. Jon faces a revolt.
Tyrion plans the conquest of Westeros."
This description is more cryptic than the last one and it begs a few questions such as: Who is that visitor? We know from the leaked photos that Jon and Daenerys are going to meet up later in the season. But who can this be? We are just going to have to wait and see.
Episode 703: 'The Queen's Justice'
"Daenerys holds court. Cersei returns a gift. Jaime learns from his mistakes," the official synopsis states and we are left to wonder what does it all mean because we can't really tell much from this one. The episode is directed by Mark Mylod and written by Benioff and Weiss.
"Game of Thrones" season 7 premieres next Sunday, July 16th.
