maybe GrrM thought that 5 kids is better than 4 kids. Well, maybe he will do something before his death. But not every character in the story where you have a hundreds of characters can serve some great purpose. He was there for Bran's character development in S1-3, and I don't know what he will do in S6. I just think that super book fans have great expectations of him, because they created so many theories about him after aDwD. For the majority of show watchers and book readers he is just some random, non important character.

I think most of us are aware of that, but still don't find the notion of it very appealing. I don't get why any author would decide to include something like that. Quite frankly, I find it stupid. But well, it seems as if it is happening. At first I was against his death. But then I realized that I would rather watch Sansa and Jon as rulers of the North, than Rickon, who is not more than an extra.

Is it 100% sure that she will be in Braavos in E8?

But maybe they are BwB. Berick Dondarrion is dead, Thoros is with them, and LSH is cut. And do we know when the acting troupe will appear? They have 3 episodes. Episode 5, 7, and 8 or Episode 5, 7, and 10. So it is not possible to have 5, 8 and 10. If Arya leaves Braavos in E8, how that can happen without the acting troupe in that episode. And if they appear in E8, that means they can't appear in E10.

To be honest, I think that Rickon has to die, because otherwise it will be too easy for Sansa in Jon in S6. Davos and Tormund won't die. We don't care that much about other Northern lords. Or the lords from the Vale. So the only option for impactful death is Rickon. It will be heartbreaking, but on the other hand, he serves no purpose in the story, so he can provide an emotional reaction from the audience without much damage to the plot. I think Tormund is going to die during Snowbowl. But that guy from Reddit told that he survived. How to create a spoiler tag?

If Roose, Ramsay, Littlefinger, Walder, Black Walder, and the rest of the Freys all die in Season 6. That would be the ultimate revenge for the Starks. Worth a dead Rickon. Sorry, that was harsh.

My reasoning for Lf's death is simple. After the Bolton's defeat, the North will need a new antagonists, and WW will fill that role. I think that LF's position in the North is too weak for him to play the main villain role. Sansa and Jon will be reunited, the Starks will return to power, the Starks will be surrounded by their loyalists. I don't think that LF can do much in those circumstances.
And also I don't think that he has a role to play in a war with WW. I can't imagine him in the North, when they come.
For me, LF's position is too weak to buy him as a credible treat for the Starks in S7. And what he would even do then? Sansa and LF will have their private war while Jon and the rest are preparing for the WW's invasion?
LF will die in the moment when he thinks he took everything, that he achieved ultimate victory and then everything will be taken from him. He obviously can't take the IT, so taking WF is the highest point for his character.

Episode 5/6, then probably whenever Arya sails to Westeros, and there's room for one more in Westeros.That was what I was interested in. So I think now that Arya will kill Walder Frey in E10.

“Now it’s about her getting revenge on people who have completely destroyed her life right from the beginning."
That can't be Ramsay. LF is sooooo dead in S6.

It could be Brienne entering an Inn on the way to the Riverlands where the three sympathizers from the casting calls appear. Whoever they might be, they shot the day that photo was taken. I think those sympathizers will give us some exposition about the situation in the Riverlands.

So is it possible that Brienne is still in the North by E5? In which episodes the outlaws will appear? The outlaws spend one episode with Meribald and presumably Sandor. Their other episode is unknown (but it's obviously the RW 2.0, who are we kidding?) Yes. That was what I was thinking. Maybe the outlaws won't be "the bad guys", but the Tully's loyalists? Paul Kaye said in a recent interview that his character is still alive and that he can't tell us if he will appear again. So, I'm sure Thoros will be back. During this season, or season 7. I just think that S6 makes more sense.

I think Brienne will be in the Riverlands in E5. Wherever this is, this photo's apparently from that episode. I think the midseason fits though. This photo was taken in early August which was around when Ian McShane shot his scene as the Meribald/Elder Brother composite character. Hmm. But you can see snow there.

I hope you are right. I would absolutely love that. Well, maybe the details will be different, but we know that Sansa will be with Brienne some time in the first half of the season. We also know that LF will have a scene in the Vale. We know that Sansa will be with Davos and BI, so that means she will go to the Wall. We know that Sansa will arrive with the Vale army at the end of the battle, so that means that she must meet with LF before that. And we know that LF has a scene in the snow (godswood?) where he looks super scared. I think that's the scene where Sansa (in front of the heart tree) tells him everything. The only other person who could scare LF this much is Ramsay, but we know they won't meet before Ramsay's defeat, so it must be Sansa.
