All things considered, Game of Thrones had a pretty satisfying ending, but it still left a lot of questions unanswered.
The final season (or two) of Game of Thrones proved to be divisive among fans. Some people felt the ending was too rushed, or that some characters were acting out of character. Other people liked the faster pace and were satisfied with their favorite characters’ development.
Whichever camp you’re in, we can all agree that despite getting some answers and conclusions, we were still left with a lot of questions. Unfortunately, we’re probably never going to get answers to them either.
Here are our top questions Game of Thrones never answered.
- Why did we suffer through that awkward conversation between Jon and Dany discussing her fertility if she never became pregnant?
- If Varys’ messages about Jon’s true parentage were sent to the other rulers, why did nobody bring it up at their final meeting?
- Did Varys even send any of the messages?
- If he didn’t, what was the point of showing him writing and burning one of them?
- Why was Cersei pregnant?
- What did it matter if Euron thought the baby was his?
- What happened to Ellaria Sand?

- Why didn’t the Reeds join in the White Walker battle and/or King’s Landing battle?
