Cersei, choosing violence like she loves to do, purged King\u0027s Landing of just about every named character (including, unfortunately, her last remaining child) and ascended to the Iron Throne with Qyburn as her Hand. Meanwhile, Daenerys finally set sail for Westeros, with a larger force than ever now under her control. And on top of that, it was solidified that Arya\u0027s two-season arc over in Braavos was truly over via a throat slit, a gurgle, and some pies, as she returned to Westeros with a new bag of tricks and wiped out the entire Frey male line.
