Have you been following GOT subtleties at all? Just to recap. Most of loyal Stannis' soldiers perished at the Blackwater. Majority of the forces he went up north with are sellswords (bought after Ser Davos got that loan from the Iron Bank of Braavos). You've been saying his men deserted him which is not 'totally' true. The sellsword part of his force deserted him (surprised? not really. That what sellswords do). To further illustrate the point. Go and watch the scene of the fight between Stannis and Ramsey again, you'd see clearly he had more than a thousand men in that fight (which happened after the desertion).

So yes. I still believe a war strategist like Stannis (reputed to be one of the finest commanders in Westeros) wouldn't have left Dragonstone unammned.

I believe Stannis wanted to set up shop north so there wasn't really any reason to leave a garrison at dragonstone since he needed every man he could spare. He didn't plan on returning there for a while so I see no reason to protect it and it didn't seem anyone else was particularly interested in taking it.

seven all season and nobody has been man enough to woo and fork sansa. sansa is too beautiful to have not been forked very hard and fast. well i guess the absence of young sharp guys in the series has made it to be so. They should feature me in just two episode and see if i wont fork sansa over and over again. the writers of the series needs to get her laid.

If Euron has the horn, why would he give it to Cersei though ?

I wonder, and his proposition to Cersei should be scrutinized too. I bet he has the horn and Cersei is the only one he can have as ally. Certainly he cannot go to Jon, and his request to be her husband is just a plot to get rid of her as well whe the time comes.

Well, there is a thing in war they call "tactical retreat" and Dragonstone was the place for Stannis. He also went into Battle of the Blackwater almost certain of victory but when he lost where did he retreated to to re-strategise? As I already mentioned, Stannis is one of the finest commanders in the Kingdom. If he didn't make that mistake during the battle of blackwater (which he was more confident of winning), why would he later (when he was even less confident)?

@Gbola5, thanks for the correction. No horn whatsoever (either Dragonbinder or Joramun's) was mentioned on the show. We only know that there was a horn along with the dragonglass found at the Frostfangs.

Not really feeling this euron character though as a bad guy


But I'm honestly scared about his gift to cercie..... Don't wonna believe the rumour about the dragon horn
Same here, because the will be bad for Khaleesi.

that's the thing about people like him with that kind of character...they always seem unserious and dumb,but its why people underestimate them thinking they are no threats...
see how from exile,he picked the perfect time to come back,even when Jamie criticised him for running away,he retorted by using humour and saying its what ser in motion for his exile and return...

just don't underestimate euron..
and yes I fvcking hope is that dragon horn
I'm certainly not a fan of daenerys
Why don't you like Deanerys, she's almost everyone favorite, I like to see her sit on they Iron throne.

Exactly my thought. It would have made more sense to show a handful of men Stannis left to man the castle (captured and imprisoned by Dany's soldiers prior to her arrival). Considering the importance of Dragonstone to Kings landing (via the Blackwater), it makes no sense that it was empty.
Why will Stannis leave some soldiers behind ? I think the message they are just trying to pass across on that scene is that Deanerys mean business, she didn't talk or smile when they got there and the only thing she said was Shall We Begin, which is more of a suspense and makes fans anticipate for the next episode, because everyone want to see their favorite character talk.... you get ?

Which one of stannis men? The ones that deserted him?
I don't know why people want the Castle to be be vacant when Stannis men deserted him, most of them have moved on with their lives and at least they showed us Stannis Flag which was pulled down by Deanerys herself

When they hear that their leader has died in Battle, what do you expect them to do, still stay there ? and GOT scenes ain't happening in days.... For what we know, Stannis died in Battle like 2 months back, so u expect them to stay in the castle for 2 months eating what ?

In the books, there was a horn Euron had a man blow at the Kingsmoot. A large horn covered with runes that glow red when the horn is blown. I can't remember if it had a name, or any special properties.
The man who blew it died though, had his insides cooked or so.

Edit: Yup, the horn is called Dragonbinder, and it tames dragons.
I just pray this won't happen, it gonna be bad real for we Deanerys core fans.

grin I gave up tryna guess what will happen in GOT after season 3...
Bt I dnt think Arya will kill Cersei...
Looking at it from another Angle, the Dothdraki warriors are good in one on one combat and they have never fought real Battle + I think this battle might be on the sea which I think it's a disadvantage because they are good with their horse and the Unsullied are not that special, they only fight till death, I think the dragons is what's making Deanerys on the winning side and it this Dragon Horn, they are talking about it really true or Dragonbinder as someone called it. Deanerys is in it for a ride undecided

Yes, I'm aware of "Dragonbinder" (but that's because I've read the books. A subject that is, for inexplicable reasons, a taboo here). As far as we (TV viewers) are concerned, the Dragonbinder deosn't exist.
I hope it stays like that.

Pls, is anyone sure if this is the last season?

Cos this one year per season is getting a Lil bit boring and it seems to dry up one's memory of the previous season. They shld be done with d film already.

Boss I dnt think it's bn decades since dragon stone was used...

And yeah d part abt Arya smiling after killing d Freys was so nt cool..Cmon!!!
And I think Sansa gave a smirk too to d camera after killing Ramsay ...

Yea. the Euron scene.. arguably the Best bit of acting 4 episode 1...

Littlefinger is the Mozart of this orchestra called Westeros...
He's always got a trick up his very long sleeves..grin and a spare card to play all the time ..
I jst hope Sansa isn't overplaying hers


Valar Morghulis!!!
And why shouldn't arya smile after the genocide?
Imagine watching your loved ones murdered before you as a kid and memorizing and reciting their names nightly in hope of retribution and finally getting the retribution, i will even have an orchestra performing to the beat of their diminishing heartbeats if it were me! undecided so me, I think the smile is in order

This is not the last season, there is still a 6 episode season 8, which I guess will be final. There might be spin off shows though, to follow up. undecided

I hope it is the Dragon horn!! That'll be the ultimate weapon against Dany and her Dragons cool

She's too untouchable.

Yup.

Full disclosure, I was team Bolton. As in Ramsay not Roose

When he died, I switched to Team High Sparrow.

When he died, I switched to team Cersei.

I can't stand the goody two shoes messianic figures that Jon and Dany seem to be, with literally everything going for them because inexplicably people keep helping them.

Only 2 characters I can countenance as Overlords of Westeros are Cersei and Arya, because unlike all the other contenders on the board, these ones are actually doing stuff and making moves...not having everything fortuitously fall into place for them by lot magic
