20	* FamedInStory: Songs are already being sung about the deeds surrounding the events of the War of the Five Kings and the Great War.
21	* TheGhost:
22	** Arya Stark, who left with Gendry for the Stormlands.
23	** Lyanna Mormont is off-page, running the North in Sansa's absence.
24	* HeManWomanHater: Robin Arryn seems to regard all women as whores, judging by his adverse reaction to marriage and outright referring to Sansa as a whore.
25	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Remember that [[Recap/GameOfThronesS7E3TheQueensJustice secret entrance to Casterly Rock that Tyrion told to the Unsullied?]] Now the Unsullied used it to hole up in Casterly Rock.
26	* InSeriesNickname: Barely a month or two after his wedding and Podrick is already referred to by smallfolk as the "Unlikely Lord".
27	* KeystoneArmy: TheAlliance Daenerys forged crumbled overnight after her death, because the Dothraki only answer to the Khaleesi/Daenerys (and she's dead) and the Unsullied don't understand the concept of legacy (since they don't reproduce).
28	* MythologyGag: At one point, Bronn is heard whistling "[[Literature/TalesOfDunkAndEgg A Thousand Eyes and One]]", befitting his position as Master of Whisperers.

31	* PosthumousCharacter: Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, Cersei and Jaime Lannister, the Dragons.
32	* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The Small Council is truly a mixed bag, consisting of Sansa, Podrick, Tyrion, Davos, Sam, Yara, Theon, Jorah, Brienne, and a new Grand Maester. It was slightly invoked because they wanted a multi-cultural perspective on the realm.
33	* SparedByTheAdaptation: Jorah and Lyanna Mormont are still alive, as is Theon Greyjoy.
34	* TheSpymaster: Bronn, as the court's new Master of Whisperers.

36	* StraightForTheCommander: It's implied Arya killed the Khal in a sneak attack.
37	* SuccessionCrisis: All over the place, thanks to the War of the Five Kings.
38	** The Northern Lords are adamant in the "There is always a Stark in Winterfell" rule. Which leads directly into Sansa marrying Podrick.
39	** Robin Arryn is refusing to marry and hasn't named an heir.
40	** Yara will likely be the last person to rule the Iron Islands as a Greyjoy since Theon is a eunuch.
41	** The Reach and Dorne are both embroiled in CivilWar.
42	* TakeAThirdOption: How Tyrion decided on Podrick to marry Sansa. She can't marry a powerful lord or a commoner, therefore she should marry a knight lower in rank to her, who's known her for years and traveled the realm.
