In the game of thrones, you win or you die ... or you just live happily ever after, apparently.

For the final episode of Game of Thrones , the show brought several characters storylines to an abrupt end: Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) becomes King Bran the Broken, Arya (Maisie Williams) sails away on a ship, Sansa (Sophie Turner) is crowned Queen in the North and Jon Snow (Kit Harington), whos rejoined the Nights Watch, goes North with the wildlings.

Its an ending that will supposedly somewhat happen in George R.R. Martin s yet-to-come novels. (Wright confirmed in a recent interview that Martin told the Game of Thrones showrunners that Bran would be king). But with an abbreviated series of only six episodes, the final season came off feeling a bit like Martins CliffsNotes as the show rushed through big moments and completely omitted other, more interesting, aspects of its saga.

Are people actually going to be happy with Bran as king? What will Arya find on her adventures? And where did Drogon take Dany (Emilia Clarke)? If the season wasnt so rushed, maybe we couldve seen that the overlooked storylines were actually dark and full of terrors.

Bran probably knew all those people in Kings Landing would die.
