In season 8 what questions do you want answered?
A big question i have right now is....
What happened to Craster's baby that got turned into a White Walker, and why can't the Night king just make any baby a part of the generals in his army? - Why couldn't the Night king make the Umber boy a white walker instead of a wight? Some magic deal/rules involved..... - Why can't Benjen Stark be turned into a wight? He is stuck in some middle ground.
What questions do you have (Show cannon only!)?

Who is running Highgarden with the Tyrells and Tarlys dead? Sam's mother and sister?
Will we see Riverrun again?
Does the Stark crypt have any major role to play other than the place to drop major revelations?

Does the Stark crypt have any major role to play other than the place to drop major revelations? Good one! One thing the show has skipped greatly in Dany's story is how she deals with the aftermath of the battle. There was no hint that she put forth a new Lord of the Reach. Or any strategy to actually hold highgarden/the reach now she has won it. Without a plan the reach will surely supply Cersei with food and not be loyal to their new queen. Unless she left some dothraki/unsullied behind byt it was assumed she took her whole army North. Another good question... now the Freys are dead is nobody asking questions... Edmund Tully was he still alive? I personally think the crypts are tied to ancient magic and they do have some significance. However i am not sure whether they will explore it much on the show. Maybe a good hiding place for the survivors if winter... Perhaps the tombs of the dead Starks can not be reanimated by the Night King. or it holds some secret passage.

Where is Howland Reed?
Anything and everything about the Children of the Forest.

Where is Howland Reed? Anything and everything about the Children of the Forest. writers did an interview saying the Night King puts the bodies in that spiral design to mock the spiral design the Children of the Forest used when they sacrificed him. They likened it to Satan turning the cross upside down, like blasphemy and a big “fuck you” to his creator. So I think they will definitely go further into the children of the forest and the history of the Night King.

So I think they will definitely go further into the children of the forest and the history of the Night King. This is a pet peeve of mine, so mini rant (aimed at the writers, not you ):
The inverted cross is not a Satanic symbol. It has been a Christian symbol since the first century, though the first writing attesting to it is in the 200sAD, after Saint Peter was sentenced to death under the reign of Emperor Nero. Saint Peter was to be crucified to death, like Jesus, but begged that he would be crucified upside down, as he felt unworthy to die in the same manner as Jesus had. From there, the Petrine Cross was born.
That being said, I do hope we get a lot more about the history of the Children!

Biggest most important questions?
Why/how the White Walkers turned on the Children.
Who created the Dragons in the first place (since there's 0% chance those things occurred naturally) and who gave them to the Valyrians? Are the Valyrians themselves the result of the same experiments that created Dragons and that's why they can bond with them. The lore videos mention people from the east being responsible. I wanna know how Valyria fell and whether it's connected to events in the present.
I wanna know why, in a time when magic has since the fall of Valyria been on such a decline, we're seeing a sudden resurgence, with White Walkers/Night King, perhaps the most powerful Greenseer who ever lived in Bran, Dragons, resurrections, fire magic, and all manner of lesser magic. Is this the last burst of magic before it all dies out, or the beginning of a new age of magic?
What did the Warlocks know? They showed Dany visions of the wall, and of the Iron Throne in ruins. Supposedly they could see events yet to happen. What did they see?
Where did Craster's tradition of sacrificing to the Others come from? That's not something he invented, so he has to have learnt it from somewhere, right? How long has this practice been going on? Has the Night King always been watching?
Does R'hollor actually exist? Do any gods exist or are they all misinterpretations of nature and magic?
There are a bunch of questions I want answered that will NEVER be answered, that I know. But in the books and the show, the magical elements have always been my favourite. They cut down on a lot of the magic, so it stands to reason that the stuff they did include (resurrection, blood magic, visions) must be important to the ultimate endgame of the series.

I get it's a sacred symbol, but if that's all it is, I'll be thoroughly disappointed.
