For the curious, the Night’s King of the books is the legendary 13th Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch. He fell in love with a mysterious, white-skinned, blue-eyed, ice-cold woman, declared her his queen, and did generally bad things for 13 years in the North before the King in the North and the King Beyond the Wall joined forces to end his reign. While there’s no confirmation that the Night’s King of the book was real or that his bride was a White Walker, that interpretation seems to be the most likely conclusion from the tale.

In the books, then, what is the threat from beyond the wall, just wildlings and random white walkers?
According to George R. R. Martin, the Others "are strange, beautiful… think, oh… the Sidhe made of ice, something like that… a different sort of life… inhuman, elegant, dangerous
ice elves.

They are established as an entire civilization of evil ice Fey, who worship the Great Other

8 years of build up and the whole "Winter is coming" slogan for that? Pretty lackluster and really undercuts the entire series. Total lack of imagination and writing ability.

or just yoink him out of the godswood with the dragon's claws. bring his ass somewhere and torture the fuck out of him and every few hours just cast mass rez until the world is dead. its amazing how they made NK simultansously badass beyond imagination to completely fucking lame and unimportant.

He made a mistake common to clever people, he underestimated his opponents.

Shitty that a lot of these legitimate things will go unanswered since NK's dead and there's no reason to spend time on them now

So people get real mad when you tell them that the show has turned into spectacle and that the writing is halfassed at best since season 6. Still need King Euron to redeem this shit.

My 1st question after the Night King died was Is it now Summer forever? And will the North finally thaw out?
The next GoT show HBO does is going to be about Westerosi Global Warming. #wokeiscoming

People of Braavos start complaining about income inequality and try and seize the assets of the Iron Bank Billionaires?

I had zero issues with it being dark. I thought that was part of what they were selling. The Night Is Dark and Full of Terrors. fast moving dead you could you barely see.

The Golden Company lore has not been introduced into the show. its too late now to do this. they're just mercs here and will do what they are told as long as the gold keeps flowing.

Hard to disagree with you but they have introduced other elements that could be used to accomplish the same means. Bank of Braavos having enough of the Crowns shit. Maybe even Dario contracting the company first, seems like it wouldn't be a giant leap.

the bank of Braavos storyline seems to have died with Stannis the Mannis. now Cersei has a shit ton of money, likely from raiding Highgarden. Dario might pop up, i guess, but the Golden Company would tell him to get a fucking haircut. those guys dont play.
