Frankly, last week episode of Game of Thrones was one of the best episodes of the series. With the slaying of two power figures (Roose Bolton and Bayon Greyjoy), and the return of Jon Snow, “Home” had quite the action. This weeks episode promises to be just as epic. The episode is titled “Oathbreaker”, which is not to be confused with Oathkeeper, the name of Brienne of Tarth’s sword. My guess, is that the phrase “Oathbreaker” is referring to Jon Snow fulfilling his oath to the Knight’s Watch by dying.
The synopsis for Season 6, Episode 3, “Oathbreaker”:
‘Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) meets her future. Bran meets the past. Tommen confronts the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce). Arya (Maisie Williams) trains to be No One. Varys (Conleth Hill) finds an answer. Ramsay gets a gift.’
My thoughts on what all that means:
– Bran meets the past means that Game Of Thrones is about to finely air one of the most important moments in GoT lore: The Tower of Joy. I won’t drop any spoilers, but if you want, just Google “Tower of Joy”, and you’ll find all the answers you need. I’ll say this: it has A LOT to do with Jon Snow’s true parentage, and is a major event in the Game of Thrones timeline.
– My guess is that the gift Ramsay is getting is going to be the youngest, and long forgotten Stark, Rickon, who has been with the Umbers since we last same him. Rickon being in Ramsay’s possession has many consequences, but I suspect it will be the spark that lights the fire of the upcoming Battle of the Bastards. One of the most satisfying moments of this series is going to be the eventual sword Jon Snow puts through Ramsay Bolton’s heart.
