A Possible Surprise in Store for Game Of Thrones

The latest theory of the Game of Thrones that is making the rounds surrounds the importance of Bran in the end of the series.

Since returning to Winterfell as the three-eyed raven, Stark has been busy scaring his brothers, but the future of the character in the series may be about to take a turn in the still more absurd with a theory that suggests He Is the terrifying king of the night.

A YouTube video posted by Game of Theories states that an episode to come could see a time-traveling Bran - now the all-seeing Three-Eye Raven - turned to the man who became White's leader Walker Forest Children create the army of the undead.

The theory says that Bran's transition to the Night King could occur when the Forest Children pierced the man's heart with dragonglass leaving Bran inside his body - a theory that seems most likely to check out the season six scene by showing The creation of White Walkers.

At the scene, Bran watches events unfolding from a distance - not warging here - with the YouTube video arguing that his position is directly reflected with the King of the Night, a producers movement that may well have been intentional. To this is added the fact that the King of the Night can touch Bran when he wins.

In addition, Bran's interaction with Leaf could provide theory with some legitimacy; When asked if the Children of the Forest are the ones who created the White Walkers, Leaf says: "We were at war, we were being killed, our sacred trees cut, we needed to defend ourselves".

Bran then asks who, and Leaf responds: "From you."

Perhaps this line could take on a new meaning later on the line.

The last episode of Thrones - titled 'Eastwatch' - was another fast paced tour (read our review here), which saw the stage for what could be the biggest scene of the HBO show so far and the long awaited return of a favorite of the fans.
