You can also see the writers laying track for Arya’s final moments in the series finale, when she leaves on a ship to discover what’s “west of Westeros.” In season 6, she talks to Lady Crane in Braavos about wanting to do just that. And, as fans know, Arya survives the season. On a show as complicated as Game of Thrones, stories have to be planned out well ahead of time.

Musician Ed Sheeran famously had a cameo appearance in the season 7 premiere of Game of Thrones, playing a Lannister soldier Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) meets on her way to King’s Landing.
