'Game Of Thrones' Season 7 Teases Beric Dondarrion Final Sacrifice To Save Jon Snow; Epic Hound Vs. Mountain Showdown? [VIDEO]
It looks like "Game of Thrones" Season 7 will attempt to outdo the previous season in a truly interesting way. The latest trailer for the HBO series has just been released, promising that Jon Snow's eventual battle against the White Walkers will not be the only major fight this July. Will Beric Dondarrion sacrifice his own life to save the King in the North? Is it finally time for The Hound to face off against the zombified Mountain? The answers may have been revealed in the exciting teaser.
The new "Game of Thrones" Season 7 trailer certainly has a dazzling array of breathtaking scenes, from Daenerys Targaryen tearing down the Baratheon banners in Dragonstone to fire raining down on the Iron Fleet (via YouTube). However, the shot of Beric Dondarrion wielding his flaming sword in preparation for a fight in the snow is the one that stands out more vividly than the extreme close-up of Drogon's teeth. Does this mean the lightning knight and the Brotherhood Without Banners have joined up with Jon Snow to battle with White Walkers?
Beric Dondarrion's alliance with the King in the North could guarantee that the lightning knight is set for his final death in "Game of Thrones" Season 7. But who will he pass the flame of life to? Some believe that Jon Snow might be in trouble again and Dondarrion will make the sacrifice to ensure the possible Azor Ahai gets resurrected.
Beric Dondarrion isn't the only one fighting for Jon Snow to protect The Wall. There is also a glimpse of Sandor Clegane in wildling clothing but that's not the most interesting shot of The Hound in the "Game of Thrones" Season 7 trailer. According to io9, Sandor reappears in what looks like the Dragonpit in King's Landing, where he might face his villainous brother The Mountain in an epic showdown. Fans may have been waiting for Jon Snow to fight the White Walkers, but the duel between the Cleganes is the one brutal thing to look forward to on July 16.
