“Game of Thrones” Season 7 finale left us with so many cliffhangers, and we hope to get some answers once the eighth and final season premieres next year or in 2019 if all else succeed. It has been confirmed that Jon Snow’s real name is Aegon Targaryen, the only son of both Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark.
Apparently, he is not Eddard “Ned” Stark’s bastard but his legitimate nephew, who gave him the name Jon. The Stark siblings have reunited – Sansa, Arya, and Bron, not to mention Jon. Recently, another fan-made theory has surfaced online that suggests Sansa’s death in Season 8, and it is being linked to her direwolf named, Lady.
Will Sansa die in Season 8?
We all know that the Stark children had direwolves given by their Lord father during “Game of Thrones” Season 1. Their direwolves though have died, and some have disappeared. Arya reunited with hers in Season 7 but it was too quick, and she never got the chance to spend time with Nymeria. Sansa’s direwolf Lady was killed by Ned as a punishment when Arya’s direwolf attacked Joffrey Baratheon. Now, a fan suggests that the early death of Lady means that Sansa won’t live that long when Season 8 premieres just like what happened to her direwolf.
In “Game of Thrones,” the direwolves are not normal like any other animals. They are considered as magical as Daenerys Targaryen’s dragons and their destinies are apparently linked to the people who raise them.
In the context of the book that author George R.R. Martin outlined in 1993, the author didn’t have plans for Sansa to live that long. This can also mean that she won’t survive against the White Walkers when Season 8 premieres. She is apparently not a warrior but a fine, intricate young lady of Winterfell, which is opposite to her sister Arya, who is a fighter.
Expect bloodbath in Season 8
We’ve seen the ice dragon Viserion and the Night King managed to destroy one barrier in The Wall during “Game of Thrones” Season 7 finale. Apparently, the army of the dead was already heading south while Jon and Daenerys were still sharing their romance that we know is incest. Will they be able to defend the entire Westeros?
Jon’s younger siblings were in Winterfell, and they will be the next people to face the undead once they are done with The Wall.
Kit Harrington, who plays the role of Jon Snow in “Game of Thrones,” recently warned fans that there would be a lot of the main characters to get killed “very quick” in Season 8. Sansa is possibly one of them. What do you reckon?
