There are only three legitimate Starks left to carry on the name - and Sansa and Arya are both women. When Ramsay Bolton shot an arrow through Rickon Stark’s heart, he may have sealed House Stark’s fate. Meanwhile, other once-great houses, like the Tullys, are no longer even houses.Īnd in the most recent episode of Game of Thrones, titled “Battle of the Bastards,” we can now add the Starks to the growing list of endangered houses. Following the death of Ramsay Bolton, the Boltons have been eradicated from the realm. The Tyrells are also in bad shape, with Mace Tyrell’s only son (on the show) being Loras - and it will be a miracle if Loras makes it out of Season 6 alive. Similarly, the Martells are pretty much dead following the assassination of both Doran and his son Trystane by Oberyn’s bastard daughters.
(That, and it won’t be long until Cersei’s last son meets his prophetic end.) In fact, the only Baratheon heir to make it out of the game of thrones alive is Gendry, but he’s an illegitimate bastard. Tommen Baratheon, First of His Name, may sit on the Iron Throne, but we know he’s not King Robert’s legitimate heir. However, the great houses that have ruled over Westeros for thousands of years are growing increasingly thin on Game of Thrones.įor what it’s worth, the Baratheon line is now extinct.
The game of thrones has always been a treacherous game of great power and privilege - one only noblemen dare to play.
