2. Euron Greyjoy: A Dragon’s Appetizer
Okay, so while everyone’s gung-ho and on their way to the Capital, everyone’s favorite creepy uncle, Euron Greyjoy, is probably still building ships back at the Iron Islands. What’s he waiting for… the next Winter? While Euron was “waking up” from his anticlimactic drowning ceremony on his own sweet time, Yara and Theon Greyjoy were already halfway across the world making powerful alliances with Queens who own goddamn dragons! Dragons, Euron… dragons!
Now, let’s not underestimate Euron here. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. I’m sure he’ll pop up somewhere in Season 7 and turn into a distraction for Daenerys and her fleet. He’ll take down a few ships, probably kill a character or two, and stall the Mother of Dragons for a few episodes. I’m guessing either Yara or Theon will not live to see the assault on Cersei’s armies, which is a shame, but if I had to pick one I’d say Theon’s moment of redemption is at hand and since he was such an epic a**hole before, it’s rather him than Yara. Make no mistake about it though… Euron isn’t going to be anything more than a dragon’s breakfast. He’s going down, and fast, but the point is he’ll be a key element in the story that stalls the Khaleesi’s fleet long enough for the story to twist and turn in other directions. It sucks, but it’ll be fun to see him turn into dragon chow that’s for sure!
