[@notlisztening9821]

@@SoggyCabbages it was only even possible because plot. Nobody but very few main characters should have survived that overwhelming force - as it was seen in the last couple of shots of episode 3: no soldiers left and sam, jamie, brienne and tormund all dead. Furthermore the night king had no reason to go out at all. He could have just been chilling in a safe hideout somewhere and let someone else go into the keep. Many people seemingly can teleport across the map, but we haven't heard of arya being able to teleport, so she should have been spotted much sooner and killed right then and there

R I liked it. Theon is my favorite character in GOT and I sympathized with him after he helped Sansa escape from winterfell but yes he did need to die as a hero defending his little brother and yes he needed to be told that he was a good man because of the amount of guilt he had for killing the farm boys .

[@flesruoYkcuFoGuoY]

He put up a hell of a fight. His army slaughtered hundreds of thousands and he nearly had open entry to the entire Seven Kingdoms. It is only fitting that of all places, Winterfell would be the last bastion. Winterfell has never fallen to a siege. You can say the Iron Born and the Boltons, but neither of them lead a siege on the city. Theon just kinda took it and Roose Bolton was given Winterfell. The Night King, like many others, tried and failed (though he very nearly succeeded).
