GoT clue we’ve missed all along

- Lexie Cartwright

WE’RE a matter of weeks away from the premiere of the final season of Game of Thrones, and the fan theories are getting out of control.

With the show’s stars and producers giving us nothing but crumbs, fans have been left to guess how this fantasy epic is going to end.

While some of the theories are pretty outlandish and hard to believe, a Reddit user has pointed out the glaring clue is in the title of the book saga, A Song of Ice and Fire, saying it could mean an actual song is the solution to defeating the White Walkers.

A while ago author George R.R. Martin said the answer to everything had been right under our noses the whole time.

This lends the song theory some serious weight.

“The only confirmed ways to kill the White Walkers involve magic, this includes dragon glass which are magical (confirmed by GRR Martin) used by the Children of the Forest, Valyrian steel which are infused with Valyrian magic, and the fire from the dragons, which are magical creatures,” the thread reads.

“First of all, we know that there is the prophecy of the prince that was promised, which involves a song. This means that there is an actual song, but as to what this song is, we don’t know.

“Perhaps this is where the song comes in, and the person imbued with the blood of fire and the blood of ice who sings this song will destroy the White Walkers finally.”
