see what was really powerful in this episode was when drogon burned the throne because really that was the symbol of the game of thrones, you see with the death of dany

drogon was so hurt he wanted to stop the game of thrones and thus he burned the throne so that jon would not die in the game of thrones

Fuckin King Bran.

Also lol at the Dothraki just riding off into the sunset and disappearing, Dany randomly becoming WORLD CONQUERER, the forerunner of Parliament,etc.

Also I legitimately thought Brienne was going to write that Jaime killed the mad king to save Kings Landing but that would require D&D to not be poo poo.

Also Drogon burning the Iron Throne was hilarious, but has he ever been shown to be anything but a weapon?

Getting all 4 major characters with missing or nonfunctional dicks in one place proved to be the key to victory.

how is having no heir a good thing

Bran: “Sounds good to me.”

lol I just realized that if the selling point of Bran is that he's the Three Eyed-Raven then surely his successor needs to be trained in his ways too and that means it doesn't matter who they vote for because the person will just have their personality drained away.

Tyrion explained it. He said the high lords will choose future kings in the same way and same place they chose Bran.

Elective monarchies are a classic “seemed like a good idea at the time” thing for feudal societies to do so it’s actually one of the less contrived things in the show. HRE became de facto hereditary to make things simpler but Scandinavia was pretty committed to the concept.

it all makes sense now

ive had my brain unlocked like the four eyed raven

GRRM got addicted to paradox games and told dnd the ending after he played too much EU4 and that's why we have the HRE ending.

I came to that realization too thinking about it. Bran is the ultimate villain of Game of Thrones and he loving won. Dany wouldn't have gone crazy if she didn't know Jon was her nephew and who was the one who insisted Jon be told? Bran.

Bran also told Sansa, who then told Tyrion, who then told Varys, who then told everyone, leading to Dany's sanity slipping to the point where she turned into a villain and killed everyone and told the entire world she was going to kill everyone else too so that Jon could kill her and then become ineligible for the throne himself leading to Bran being chosen as king instead.

And Bran saw all of this happen and engineered it to go the way he needed it to get him on the throne.

Brandon Stark is the biggest monster in the history of Westeros and he now controls the entire continent, save the North, which is loyal to him by default because his sister runs it and she'll defer to him when push comes to shove.

bran time travelled to make sure he would climb up to that window and get pushed out to start the war of the five kings.

he played us like a drat fiddle.
