First leaked by its German TV partner, HBO has confirmed the titles of "Game of Thrones' Season 6 episodes eight to ten and in doing so, the GoT producer also gave credence to the episode spoilers that came with the advanced information.
While GoT Season 6 Episode 8 has been revealed as "No One", the rest of the leaks proved authentic, according to Entertainment Weekly. "HBO.com has confirmed the titles and running time of the final two episodes of Game of Thrones Season 6," the report said.
But first in No One, it was clear in the official trailer provided by HBO that Arya is the central figure of the episode that will air June 12. And the episode synopsis reads: "Arya faces a new test."
Blog site Hello Giggles speculated that Arya survived the Waif attack, perhaps even killed her assassin, that prompted Jaqen H'ghar, ring leader of the Faceless Men, to give her another chance provided he will pass a new challenge. The likelihood is the young Stark will succeed and cross the sea to make her way back to Westeros.
And it will be a tearful Stark reunion that will happen next but the celebration will be short-lived. Jon Snow and Sansa are mustering support to retake Winterfell and put an end to the criminal exploits of Ramsay Bolton. The leaks said that the follow up episode to No One is titled "The Battle of the Bastards" or "Bastard Bowl" as known in numerous GoT forums.
Gizmodo said that to raise the chance of the Starks winning, Sansa will ask Littlefinger for help and her mysterious letter contained the following words: "You [promised] to protect me. Now you have [a chance] to fulfill your promise. [The Knights] of the Vale are under your command. Ride [north] for Winterfell. [Lend] us your aid and I shall see to it that you are [rewarded]."
Most likely, Petyr Baelish hustle up on a rescue mission and to ensue is the most epic battle that GoT fans will ever witness, pitting the resurrected Jon Snow and evil-personified Ramsay Bolton. Per the same Entertainment Weekly report: "The Thrones showrunners have previously told us that season 6 includes the biggest battle in the show's history and it's fair to assume this is it."
But who will emerge the victor? HBO said that the Season 6 finale will be "The Winds of Winter", which suggests that the Night Walkers will breach The Wall and make their south to sow destruction. But Jon Snow will stand in the way, which the Lord Commander can only do by slaying Ramsay first.
HBO said that the June 26 Game of Thrones season finale will be longest GoT episode ever. Fans will be treated to 69 minutes of grand ending, the show expectedly ending in a high note before lapsing into months-long of wait for GoT Season 7.
