ACT ONE<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KINGSROAD – NORTH OF KING\u2019S LANDING – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A thick snow blankets a quiet world. The ROYAL wheelhouse rests on the deserted Kingsroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE MOUNTAIN sits on the driver\u2019s bench, huddled against the cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A wail slices through the chill air. It\u2019s a BABY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

INT. ROYAL WHEELHOUSE – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CERSEI LANNISTER sits, wrapped in furs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A squalling baby wriggles in a basket lined with fur blankets. Cersei eyes the infant with disdain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QYBURN pushes open the carriage door. Giddy, he\u2019s flushed with the cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CERSEI LANNISTER
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You better have good news. That creature is giving me a headache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QYBURN <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I do, Your Grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qyburn offers Cersei his hand, but the queen gets out on her own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KINGSROAD – NORTH OF KING\u2019S LANDING – DAY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qyburn leads Cersei and the Mountain over a rise to show them…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…LIMBS, hundreds of them, mangled and twisted together. Some human, some animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The snow around the limbs is black, soaked with old blood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The twisted line of limbs snakes in a curve, looping and crossing over itself to form an unfinished infinity symbol, an…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…ALPHA symbol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QYBURN
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It took quite a bit of digging, My Queen, but this is the answer. This will draw the Night King to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CERSEI LANNISTER
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you certain? It looks like a pile of mangled scraps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QYBURN
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This one alone, no. But I have sent an envoy ahead to mark our way to the God\u2019s Eye. This will signal the Night King our destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CERSEI LANNISTER <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Supposing your information is accurate, this snow will likely cover it up before he can see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QYBURN
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It needs one final touch. I thought you might want the honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Qyburn offers Cersei a torch, which has been staked in the ground nearby. They need to light this mother up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cersei stands, the corner of her mouth twitching with approval. She nods to the Mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mountain takes the torch from Qyburn. He lowers it to the symbol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The line of limbs catches fire unnaturally quickly. Flames lick up into the air, sending their dark message to the sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. ISLE OF FACES – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A weirwood grove as ancient as Westeros. The milky trunks of the heart trees blend with the snow. Their red leaves contrast with their surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BRANDON STARK sits against the largest, the oldest tree, his hands entwined in the pale branches. Only the whites of his eyes are visible. Blood drips down his face like tears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BRANDON STARK<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He gasps for air as his eyes flick back to their normal dark brown. His chest heaves as SANSA STARK rushes over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SANSA STARK <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you hurt?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BRANDON STARK <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s over. The war is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sansa smiles, relieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SANSA STARK
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

He did it then. Jon killed the Night King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BRANDON STARK
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Daenerys died on the battlefield.
As did Drogon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SANSA STARK
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So the chance to create the weapon we need…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BRANDON STARK <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The smile falls from Sansa\u2019s face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KING\u2019S LANDING – AEGON\u2019S HIGH HILL – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A smoky ruin of King\u2019s Landing. Ash and snow float through the air, coating the city in gray silt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon kneels in the filth, cradling Daenerys\u2019 head in his arms. His eyes are rimmed red, dead with the loss of his queen, his wife, his child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RHAEGAL is curled behind them, keening for his mother and brother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BERIC DONDARRION stands by, battling his own grief as he watches the city reel in the wake of wildfire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beric touches Jon\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BERIC DONDARRION
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a hard loss. But there will be time to mourn later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JON SNOW
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It wasn\u2019t supposed to be like this. I thought your god had a plan. Why did he let her die?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BERIC DONDARRION
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know. We have to get you to safety or we won\u2019t have a chance to find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JON SNOW
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We already don\u2019t have a chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BERIC DONDARRION <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re men who\u2019ve looked death in the face and been brought back. Even in the dark, the light shines. If we stop fighting, fighting to survive, that\u2019s when it\u2019s all lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JON SNOW <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m going to kill him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon looks from Daenerys. King\u2019s Landing is covered in smothering smoke and wailing wounded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The falling snow is particularly thick over Viseyna\u2019s Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KING\u2019S LANDING – VISEYNA\u2019S HILL – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On the scarred mound that used to be the Great Sept of Baelor, the Night King stands, overlooking his destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the city has been leveled. The screams of the survivors are muted here. The cold is so deep it stills the sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He raises his arms. They are starkly light against the black smoke and green fire plaguing the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A crisp sound, clear and loud despite the sounds of the dying capitol. The sound of ice cracking apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Night King\u2019s rallying cry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KING\u2019S LANDING – VARIOUS – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nearby, a blacksmith shop has been destroyed. Flames billow up, larger than any man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A WHITE WALKER LIEUTENANT emerges from behind the fire. He steps through it, flames shrinking from his presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He steps over corpses, leaving fresh wights in his wake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Across the city, the Night King\u2019s LIEUTENANTS appear, shifting rubble away. They look toward Viseyna\u2019s Hill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One by one, they answer their king\u2019s call. Rumblings of the deep cracking of ice echo through the city streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KING\u2019S LANDING – VISEYNA\u2019S HILL – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Night King calls VISERION to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great ice dragon bursts out of the sky, screaming his victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Viserion swoops down before the Night King, lowering a scaly wing to the ground. The Night King climbs up and they take off over the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. SKY – KING\u2019S LANDING – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Night King and Viserion loop around the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As they pass over Aegon\u2019s High Hill, he sees Jon Snow cradling the body of Daenerys Targaryen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hint of a smile cracks across the Night King\u2019s icy face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Night King turns Viserion north. They fly over Flea Bottom, over the Dragonpit, past the Dragon Gate, and disappear from view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXT. KING\u2019S LANDING – AEGON\u2019S HIGH HILL – DAY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Smallfolk shriek as a fresh wave of wights attack. Jon and Beric look out over the city, taking in this hell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A shadow passes over them. They look up, squinting against the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Night King rides Viserion overhead. Jon glares at his enemy, inhuman fury building in his dark eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon shifts Daenerys\u2019 body to Beric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JON SNOW
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I need you to take care of her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BERIC DONDARRION
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Of course. I\u2019ll give my life before letting anything happen to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JON SNOW <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thank you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon nods, mouth set in a grim line. He grasps Beric\u2019s forearm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jon stands and climbs atop Rhaegal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rhaegal gives two mighty beats of his wings and they are aloft, following in the wake of the Night King and Viserion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
