Following last week’s epic battle episode of Game of Thrones, which saw Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) defeat Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) to retake Winterfall for House Stark, the show’s season 6 finale is now upon us.
The final episode, if the post-battle finales of Seasons 2 and 4 are any indication, will deal with the aftermath of what took place last week, while also tackling plots not addressed in the ninth episode of this season.
It’s been a dense and busy season, the first not directly based on George R. R. Martin’s already-published A Song of Ice and Fire source material. And the final episode will likely expand far beyond Winterfell and Meereen, the only two locations in Episode 9.
HBO has released six photos from Sunday’s episode.
