GAMES OF THRONES - MUCH AWAITED SEASON 8’s TRAILER IS OUT


For all the game of thrones lovers, everything came to a standstill when HBO released its teaser a week ago. The teaser does not have any new footage in it still; it has generated anxiety among its viewers.
GAMES OF THRONES - MUCH AWAITED SEASON 8’s TRAILER IS OUT

The teaser begins with frozen mist which is most probably the representative of the Night King and his army of the dead. The frozen mist rises from the North and steadily runs over Aegon the conqueror’s map table at Dragonstonen while covering over the direwolf which indicates House Stark and dragon map marker which indicates House Targaryen.

What follows after this is even more eye captivating as the fire lights up at once and it swallows up the Lannister Lion Marker as it further moves forward to North. It appears that the show makers are trying to showcase the extreme phenomenon of fire and ice. Where ice is illustrative of Night King and his followers, the fire shows Daenerys Targaryen and her living followers. Thus, it is trying to convey to its viewers what they had been waiting for the most- the battle between the dead and alive.
The fire and ice are shown to be clashing at the Trident river. The trident river is the area where Robert Baratheon killed Rhaegar Targaryen — Jon’s father and Daenerys’ brother — at the Ruby Ford during the War of the Usurper. This was a remarkable event in the history of Westerosi. Can something happen again here twice? Can history be repeated in any form or manner? All these are speculations which the viewers are holding and waiting to unfold for.

After the meeting of fire and ice, a rough, uneven and pointed wall emerges from the collision which is from east to west crossing the middle of the continent. Some of the fans are speculating it to be a wall of obsidian that is the wall, which emerges when lava from the volcano cools down rapidly and here, it is representative of dragonglass. This clearly signifies meeting of fire and ice. The following assumption is that it could possibly be a new wall as the old one was damaged by the Night King and his undead dragon mount.
This would give a new outlook to the Westeros as the New North would have an expansion starting from the lands of Alway's river beyond the broken walls which will go down to the Riverlands. This will be the place occupied by Night King and his family for a dwelling.
The South of Westeros would serve as a shelter to the Living. According to this assumption, the Living would give up a huge portion of their land. This also means that the Northern who survived will have to accommodate in the warm weather of the South.  This can also help to overcome extinction. This is because the wall is made of dragonglass which is among one of those rarest things that can kill the White Walker. As a result, the White Walker and their Wights would be prohibited from even daring to cross into the kingdom of the living, again.

Anyways, whatever it is. All these are total speculations that all the viewers have been able to deduce from the teaser. HBO has either tried to make its viewers feel content and proud of themselves that their assumptions are right and they are the real heroes of the show. Or, it could be another way round and just an illusion to the minds of audiences. Whatever it is, the audience has to wait till April 2019 to finally unveil the truth and discover whether the finale of the Watch Games Of Thrones season8 Episode 1 Online has met up to their expectations or not.
