Daenerys meets a strong man. Cersei sees her daughter again.<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Again, none of this will really come as a surprise. HBO has been stubbornly insisting since time began that Jon Snow (Kit Harington) really is dead, even though we still don&#8217;t believe them &#8211; methinks this is a case of them protesting too much. Onto the second point, considering that Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) finishes the season surrounded by a Dothraki horde, it&#8217;s a bit of a no-brainer &#8211; they&#8217;re all pretty strong men. And while Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) will undoubtedly see her daughter Myrcella (Nell Tiger Free) again, it won&#8217;t be alive, considering how she was fatally poisoned by the vengeful Ellaria Sand (Indira Varma), despite her father Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau)&#8217;s attempts to rescue her.<\/p>\n<p>Moving back, the title itself seems to suggest that Melisandre (Carice van Houten) will play a large part in proceedings. Last seen trudging despondently back to Castle Black after her plan to sacrifice Stannis Baratheon&#8217;s (Stephen Dillane) daughter Shireen (Kerry Ingram) backfired, she has been fairly prominent in the trailer alongside the similarly isolated Davos (Liam Cunningham). It&#8217;s also worth mentioning that fellow R&#8217;hllor acolyte Thoros of Myr (Paul Kaye) previously demonstrated the power to resurrect his fallen comrades, but could she do the same?
