“Game of Thrones” Season 7 has reunited the Stark siblings – Sansa, Arya, and Bran, not to mention Jon Snow, whom we all know who he is. Everyone’s normal reaction was, of course, happiness because after all the painful events that happened to them, they finally reunited in their home in Winterfell. Bran though has changed a lot and is no longer the goofball kid that he used to be, but he has a crucial role in knowing everything in Westeros. Hopefully, he will see more people reunite soon including Brienne of Tarth and Sansa or even Arya with one person that she hated the most.
Arya to reunite with someone she loathed
Recently, Maisie Williams, who plays the role of Arya Stark, sat down with HBO to discuss “Game of Thrones” and what would be the potential things to happen in Season 8. Williams said that Arya hopes to rub shoulders again with Sandor Clegane or best known as The Hound.
Fans can recall how she hated this former Lannister guard, who killed Mycah, Arya’s friend, kidnapped her and did horrible things to the Starks. Asked how Arya would feel when she meets him again, Williams said that the Stark girl has moved on from it and there may not be any “hard feelings” towards The Hound.
"What Arya experienced in Braavos took a far worse toll on her," she said through the HBO Making “Game of Thrones” blog.
"The feelings she had about The Hound were very immature, and I feel like she's grown up since then. If they met again, she'd hopefully just be an effective killer with him, rather than against him." It can be recalled in Season 7 when The Hound appears to be happy when Brienne told him that Arya Stark is still alive. The girl, in Season 4, left him for dead because of too much hatred towards him for what he did to her family.
Westeros is in imminent danger
When Maisie Williams said that Arya hopes to fight with The Hound in “Game of Thrones” Season 8, it can also mean that she will be part of the people who will fight against the White Walkers. During the Season 7 finale, the ice dragon Viserion managed to destroy one barrier in The Wall. Apparently, the Night King was riding him and in control, which means that he can also set off for a grand tour throughout Westeros.
That said, the entire continent is going to be a scene of carnage especially that the Night King can raise the dead.
What do you reckon about Arya Stark and The Hound’s possible reunion in “Game of Thrones” Season 8? Stay tuned for more updates.
