'Game of Thrones' season 5 spoilers: What is Arya Stark doing at the Temple of the Many-Faced God in new teaser?
A new teaser from Three-Eyed Raven, although too short for fans to heave a single much-needed breath, has allowed viewers to take a quick look into what Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) will be up to in the fifth season of the HBO original that swept the world by storm, "Game of Thrones." The ten-second teaser shows Arya transforming into a darker character, IB Times described, as she prepares to enter the House of Black and White. In its limited frames, the teaser plastered a bunch of elements that tells the fate of the character in the new season.
As Independent outlined, brief flashbacks of Arya wielding a bow and one where a dead Polliver (Andy Kellegher) is beneath her are shown before she opens a black and white door. There is also a raven that can be spotted in the short clip, IB Times pointed out. While these are all flashed, the voice of Syrio Forel (Miltos Yerolemou) is very prominent while saying, "There is only one thing we say to the god of death. Not today," a famous line he uttered back in season 1. Radio Timesthen raised the possibility of the Braavos native's return, although he already met death in the first season.
The House of Black and White will only now be introduced to followers of the series although those who tore into each of the "Song of Ice and Fire" novels penned by George R.R. Martin will recognize the place as the Temple of the Many-Faced God, the headquarters of the Faceless Men, in which Arya is initiated in and her comrade Jaqen H'ghar (Tom Wlaschiha), who presented her an iron coin from Braavos, is a member.
With all this revealed in a span of 10 seconds, Radio Times concluded that Arya Stark will be "more deadly" in the upcoming season. However, Express UK also backtracked to Williams' statement last month, hinting that the fifth season will be "the end of Arya, as far as anyone knows." There is only one thing to discover it all though, and that is to wait until April 12 for the premiere of season 5 of "Game of Thrones."
