Fans Think They Figured Out The Real Meaning Behind Arya's White Horse On 'Game Of Thrones'

Yes, in fact, there will be Game Of Thrones spoilers in this article.

Don't know why you'd put it as a question, Jake, if you know that there's going to be some in the article.

We got deaths galore, baby! Alright, everyone together now, to the tune of "I've Been Everywhere". Ready? I,2,3!

We lost Varys, Euron, Sandor, Gregor, Jamie, Cersei and that's about it. Hm... we'll work on it.

Unnamed extras, but the genocide was there nonetheless.

Yes, it seems our beloved Dany went a little mad queen on us and destroyed King's Landing.

Somewhere Varys is saying "I told you so"

The actress herself took to twitter to express what is probably going through Missandei's head, wherever it is now. No, that's not a beheading joke, I'm talking about the afterlife!

As I mentioned before, we lost both Cleganes, but we finally got to see the two square off.

It was a fitting end for two men whose lives were so filled with violence.

I mean, besides the Cleganes.

Most notably were the Lannister twins, who died via a crumbling ceiling.

Some think it's fitting, some think it's lame.

Some people didn't think it was a fitting end for a villain, but other people thought having a common death just like every other citizen of King's Landing was poetic justice for Cersei Lannister.

Enter Arya, that golden-hearted Stark.

During the burning and sacking of King's Landing, she's running through the streets trying to help people escape the wrath of the last... well, one of the last Targaryens.

At least she tried. Anyways, when the dust was settling, she stood on an empty street... and was confronted by a white horse. She hops on and rides off into the sunset.

I mean, you don't just throw a lone white horse in the middle of nowhere for no reason, it's gotta have some significance.

Huh, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss? What crazy cryptic stuff are you throwing at us now?

They're comparing the scene to one from the Bible, where one of the Horsemen of the apocalypse, specifically Death, rides upon a white horse and brings Hell with him.

Which, is a pretty fitting comparison.

She serves the God Of Death, she killed the Night King which is as close to death as you can get and she does a whole lot of killing.

The white horse of death makes an appearance earlier in the episode — it belongs to the leader of the Golden Company. But that horse definitely, 100% died in this episode, right?

Or maybe it's a sign that the collapsing building actually did take Arya out, and she's riding away on the white horse of literal death.

So many horse theories, so little time. If Arya's yet to complete her prophecy that the Red Woman told her (remember, brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes?) maybe the Lord of Light sent her a special wight horse to save her.

Okay, maybe that's too literal a reading there. But if the Lord of Light wants Arya to take out some green eyes, he definitely could have brought back a horse in a mystical, divine way to help her along.

For the last episode, I mean.

Is she going to come back and kill whoever the main villain might be (gee, I wonder who it's going to be? Maybe the woman who just committed genocide and has madness in her genes?)

He warged in there to save his sister as a horse. But, where is he taking her? Maybe we'll get a scene in the next episode where Arya argues with the horse about going back to battle?

Yes, because this episode came out so close to 'Old Town Road' people are making a bunch of jokes about it.

And in answer to your question, @cliomiso, probably either Lil Nas X or Billy Ray Cyrus. I'm afraid they didn't make it out of King's Landing, either.

Well, in a lot of cultures, the white horse represents fertility.

Maybe she's pregnant? Maybe that little encounter with Gendry ended with a little more than just a rejection and a lordship?

Wouldn't that put Gendry (and therefore the baby, if Arya is pregnant) right in line for the throne if Daenerys is gone?

Green! Green eyes Arya will shut forever! It's all coming together, folks! If Arya kills Dany, who's gone mad and would kind of deserve it, then her boy toy and her baby might end up on the Iron Throne themselves. Arya said she's no lady, but maybe she could be a queen.

Do you think there is any symbolism to this white horse? Is she the embodiment of death?Or do you think a horse is a horse? Well, of course, of course!
