The story continues from the last season. Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) led her military advisors and the Unsullied army to finally return to the place where it all began, Dragonstone, where she joined her allies. At the suggestion of Tyrion (Peter Dinklage), she sent a pigeon letter to Jon (Kit Harington) far in the north, trying to get his surrender. On the other side, Cersei (Lena Headey)'s arbitrary and cruel behavior has put the country in a situation of besieged on all sides, and only Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) still stands by her. The camera turns to the North, and the differences between Jon and Sansa (Sophie Turner) grow larger and larger. At the same time, he receives a letter from Samwell (John Bradley) in the university town, saying that a huge amount of dragon crystal is buried under Dragonstone, which is the only weapon that can resist the invasion of the White Walkers.
