The title of this episode is "Donghaiwang". Donghaiwang is the easternmost castle on the Great Wall, which can be said to be located in the coastal area.
If you look closely at the title of this episode, you will find one more location. When the location goes north from Winterfell to the Great Wall of Desperation, the camera moves horizontally from Castle Black to the east of the Great Wall. Not only to take care of the title of this episode, I guess this location will also appear in the title of the next episode, because this is the main battlefield of the next episode of the human-ghost battle.
This episode is a transitional episode, following the dragon and lion battle in the previous episode and paving the way for the next episode of the human-ghost battle, but there are still many highlights. You will feel that the rhythm of this episode is a bit fast, because there are too many entanglements between characters: brothers meet, historical reunion, grievances and grievances. The characters don't have many scenes, their expressions flashed by, and there is no more time to show their acting skills. We can't see the complex inner world of the characters for a while. In fact, there should be many wonderful moments.
Sorry, due to the time gap, I have forgotten about the plot of the previous seasons. For Gendry the Bull, The Flash of Brotherhood Without Banners, Thoros, The Bear Jorah Mormont, The Little Devil, The Hound, Day I can't explain exactly what happened between Foss and other characters. I can't tell you exactly what happened. When I finish the second brush in the past few days, I will write another article in detail to talk about the grievances between these people.
In short, when you watch a drama, what others tell you is one thing, and you watch it yourself is another. These are two completely different feelings.
"I will never surrender."
At the end of the last episode, James recklessly rushed to the dragon mother, eager to turn the tide of the battle and end the battle by himself. Just when the giant dragon Drogon was about to spew out raging dragon flames, one person jumped out and pushed James into the In the sea, that man was Bronn.
After the battle, the surviving Jaime and Bronn fled ashore. Bronn is still the real Bronn who told Jaime that he won't allow Jaime to die like this until he gets what he wants. Although Bronn said that money and interests come first, who would give up his life once he encountered a moment of life and death? In the last episode, he had the opportunity to run away desperately. He failed to pick up the money that was scattered all over the floor. I feel sorry for him.
The beginning of this episode is a continuation of the previous episode, with a tragic and heroic scene. If anyone in the Seven Kingdoms regards honor as more important than life, except for Ned, it is Randall Tully. He was not loyal to the lord Tyrell family, but under the instigation of Cersei and the persuasion of James, for the so-called overall situation, he was loyal to Queen Cersei Lannister I, and he could never bow down to other queens again.
The little devil persuaded the stubborn Tully father and son to surrender, and then begged Long Ma to show mercy. For Long Ma, she needs to establish majesty, how can she take back what she said?
Mother Long's practice of burning Tully and his son to death reminded the little devil of the Mad King back then, how he madly executed the Starks and his son in the hall of the Iron Throne, and the little devil couldn't help but go to Varys for a drink. House Targaryens have a tendency to madness in their blood due to intermarriage. Jaehaerys II Targaryen once said: "Whenever a Targaryen is born, the gods toss a coin into the air and choose between madness or greatness." At this time, the dragon mother, as Varys said, she She needs a loyal minister to assist her, but I don't know if Long Ma is still doing this in order to maintain her rule and authority?
There is a saying behind the Onion Knight: "It is better to be a coward in a short time than to die forever." The premise of making a comeback and completing revenge is that your life is still there.
"Now I beg you to trust me as a stranger too."
The ally relationship between Long Ma and Snow seems to be more stable. The most worth mentioning is the interaction between Snow and the giant dragon Drogon, which confirms that Snow has Targaryen blood. I guess Snow will ride on that one. A dragon named after his biological father Rhaegar.
Snow and Long Ma understand each other better. This time, Snow's eyes are a little different, but he still exposes himself, but Snow still hides the fact that he died once. Probably in his eyes, That's not something to brag about either.
After the big bear was cured of grayscale from the Xuecheng, he immediately returned to Longshi Island to meet Long Ma. Big Bear has followed Long Ma all the way from Pantos, and he has witnessed Long Ma grow from a little girl with nothing to a Khaleesi, and then to today's queen. When Long Ma and Big Bear hugged, judging from Jon Snow's eyes, it seemed a little jealous.
Here's an excerpt from the original: "Do you remember Ser Jorah Mormont?" "I'll never forget that fellow in my life," Ned blurted out. The Mormont family of Bear Island has a long, proud and honorable history, but their territory is remote and barren. Ser Jorah intends to sell the captured poachers to slave traders in Tyrosh in order to increase their income. Since Mormont was a vassal of Stark, doing so would tarnish the reputation of the entire North. So Ned traveled thousands of miles west to Bear Island, only to find that Jorah had already absconded on a boat, fleeing to a foreign land beyond the "ice" and the king's legal sanctions. It has been five years since the incident happened.
There is a deep relationship between Jorah Mormont and Jon Snow. Big Bear's father valued Snow very much and trained him as his successor. He gave Snow the long claw that originally belonged to Big Bear. promise. Big Bear was smuggled back then, and Snow's "father" Ned once ordered Big Bear to be wanted; the current lord of Bear Island, Lyanna Mormont, is still a loyal supporter of Snow's. Everything the bear holds dear.
Bran found out that the Night King was approaching the Wall, and he sent a message to Jon on Dragonstone. Snow persuaded Mother Long to let him go to the northern battlefield. The little devil suggested that they could capture the White Walkers and send the corpse to King's Landing, thus persuading Cersei to fight the White Walkers together, and Big Bear also asked to follow Snow to East Seaview.
I feel that from the beginning of this season, in addition to Littlefinger, the IQ of the little devil has plummeted, and the strategy has failed one after another. I don't think it's feasible to convince Cersei. Instead, it gives the enemy a chance to breathe. Cersei's madness is really no worse than that of Long Ma.
Snow Nuo told Long Ma that her departure would make her one less opponent, and Long Ma said to Snow Nuo that she had become accustomed to his presence (the king of the north). He didn't surrender to Long Ma but has lived until now. Snow is also a not simple character, not only as simple as his personal charm, but also because of the protagonist's halo.
"The last time I was here, you killed my father with a crossbow." "The last time I was here, you killed my son with wildfire."
If the Onion Knight didn't say it, we almost forgot that the Onion Knight and the little devil also have a bloody feud. The little devil and the Onion Knight came to King's Landing, the little devil went to see his brother James and proposed a truce, and the Onion Knight went to the blacksmith to see the long-lost bull Gendry. The Onion Knight spoke our thoughts together, and we both thought the missing person Gendry was still rowing at the moment. Frankly, I was blind for a moment and thought Brienne the Beauty's entourage, Pod, was Gendry the Bull.
The Onion Knight told Gendry one second not to mention his illegitimate child identity in front of the King of the North, but the next second Gendry forgot about it and told Jon directly that he was the illegitimate child of the former King Robert.
Snow: You are much thinner than your father. Daniel: You are much shorter than your father.
Gendry talks to Jon about their father, but not Arya. When Daniel picks up the hammer, he looks like Robert when he was young. They will continue the legend of the "fathers" and fight side by side. If Snow knew that his biological father was Rhaegar Targaryen, I don't know how he would feel.
Unexpectedly, these people with all kinds of grievances (Da Niu, Lightning King Dondarrion, Soros, Hound, Big Bear, Tormund, Snow) gathered together to meet the next battle of life and death, which is better than the second It is even more magical to gather Queen of Dorne, Queen of Thorns, and Greyjoy to work together in the Round Table Hall.
"Never betray me again."
It is worth mentioning on the King's Landing side that Cersei is pregnant, and she is going to announce that the child is Jaime's. She mentioned Tywin's motto back then.
"Lions don't care about sheep's thoughts" is still what Tywin said in the seventh episode of the first season to teach James, and now it's like a lifetime in retrospect.
Losing three children in a row is now pregnant again, which evokes the soft side of Cersei's heart, and once this child is lost, then she will go to the abyss of madness and never die. It's just that she doesn't seem to have such deep feelings for James now, and uses James more as a pawn.
"Goodbye, miss."
In this episode, Littlefinger and Erya both played the trick of secret observation. It can be seen that the stable and harmonious Winterfell has made Littlefinger unable to sit still. Only the chaotic situation is the stage where he can show his talents.
Apart from the Tully family, the family that Littlefinger knows best is the Stark family. He has long seen that the relationship between the two sisters was not very good from the beginning, and there were differences in personalities and values.
Sansa was finally reunited with her younger siblings, but the two younger siblings were not worried, one poked at her scars, the other doubted her motives. Then he said, "I still have work to do."
Earlier in the season, Vulcan, the current Maester at Winterfell, told Sansa and Littlefinger that a good habit of Maester Luwin is that he keeps a file of every Raven letter. Littlefinger cleverly revealed Sansa's dark history: after Ned was arrested, Sansa wrote a letter of persuasion to Robb under the coercion and inducement of Cersei and others.
Littlefinger deliberately let Erya see the letter. Erya, who didn't understand what a political struggle was, should have reacted the same way Robb did back then. At that time, Maester Luwin and Aunt Cat knew clearly that it was not Sansa's intention, but Cersei's.
It was mentioned in the original book that it was because Sansa liked Joffrey and confided to Cersei that Cersei would know Ned's intentions, and the tragedy that followed. If Sansa hadn't tipped off, maybe she and her sister would have fled King's Landing and returned to Winterfell.
Littlefinger, who was secretly observing, showed a smug smile. It seems that in addition to the Great Wall of the North, Winterfell will not be peaceful in the next episode.
Xuecheng
The maesters of the Citadel concealed from Sam that Tully and his son were burned to death. Although Randall Tully was ruthless and cruel to Sam, it was Sam's father and brother who died after all.
There is no place for witchcraft, prophecy and glass candles in the world the Citadel is trying to build, let alone dragons. - Marwin
Our understanding of Xuecheng is a bit one-sided. We think it is a group of old antiques who are obsessed with eating and drinking. In fact, they advocate science and oppose magic, so they are not willing to admit the existence of the Three-Eyed Raven, and they do not agree with what Bran has seen and heard. . But just because they don't admit it doesn't mean they don't understand it.
Gilly found a record in the book: Rhaegar Targaryen secretly broke off her marriage with Princess Elia of Dorne and officially married Lyanna Stark, which also explained why the Dawn Excalibur was in those days. The three Kingsguard masters including Rhaegar did not follow Rhaegar to fight, but waited to protect Lyanna, who was pregnant that year, under the Tower of Bliss. This also shows that Jon Snow is not an illegitimate child, but an orthodox true dragon descendant, and the order of inheritance is higher than that of Long Ma. Sam didn't listen to Gilly finish the rest of the story and missed an important message.
Whether it's Snow's true identity or Sansa's dark history, there will always be a moment when it will be revealed, and people will always pay for what they do.
The article was first published on the WeChat public account: Sister Jing said that film and television , more exciting games of power are welcome to pay attention.
