'Game of Thrones' Already Spoiled the Grim Death of This 'Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Character

Death isn’t exactly a surprise in the world of Westeros. After all the Game of Thrones franchise made its name on the back of its willingness to kill its characters, no matter how heroic, beloved, or otherwise untouchable they might seem. It’s hardly shocking, at this point, to learn that a particular character died an especially brutal, grisly, or violent death. And everyone tuning into spin-offs House of the Dragon and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms probably knows that most of their faves are living on borrowed time. But there's knowing a character will eventually shuffle off this mortal coil, and there's knowing exactly how they died. And since both spin-offs thus far have been prequels, they’ve put viewers in the occasionally awkward position of knowing where the show they’re watching is headed — in a way that goes beyond simply having read the source material.
