Things were literally smooth sailing when a sudden attack hit them in the night. Yara, Theon and the Dornish leader Ellaria Sand are following orders to hit King’s Landing from the south. With that, a meeting between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen is set in stone after years of anticipation. It isn’t until Jon decrees that he’ll leave Sansa, the last (known) Stark to rule the North in his absence, that the people agree. It becomes clear that a hatred of Targaryens remains within the Northern ranks after Robert’s’ Rebellion. He didn’t even have the support of the young Lady Mormont, who usually convinces people to follow Jon with ease. It takes some convincing of the northerners, though. Dragonstone was built on a mound of dragon glass, one of few substances that can kill a white walker.

Sansa believes it’s a trap, but Ser Davos notes that an ally with fire-breathing dragons is a good friend to have in a war with white walkers. Immediately, her raven doesn’t sit well with Jon and Sansa back in Winterfell. With the plan in motion, she makes one more call, to summon Jon Snow, the King in the North, to come to Dragonstone and bend the knee. As for her foreign army of “savages” that the Lannisters are warning people left and right about, they’ll take the Lannister stronghold of Casterly Rock. The Dornish will go with the Greyjoys south and attack, while the Tyrells attack from the North. Daenerys decides that she’ll send her Westeros armies, The Tyrells and Dornish, to attack King’s Landing so as not to fuel criticism about foreign invaders.
