And many more reply Broadly speaking, Game of Thrones tells about the struggle for the throne in a continent called Westeros, which was led by a large kingdom. Royal power holders can change, but the throne cannot change. The throne was made of thousands of swords forged with dragon flames so The Iron Throne. Every kingdom, called House, which holds the power of The Iron Throne is in charge of governing the seven regions of Westeros. In order to be easy to govern, in each region a Great House was appointed to rule the small kingdoms in its territory. Meanwhile, referring to the upcoming GoT season, there is a threat from the northernmost region called Beyond The Wall getting closer. The threat was in the form of a prolonged winter which brought dead troops or called Wights. Wights is ruled by White Walker and Night King. Humans touched by White Walker or Night King will turn into Wights. Every House in GoT has a slogan. Winter Is Coming is the slogan of the House Stark which is the head of the North region or called the Warden of The North. House Stark is one of the most idealistic houses. But they are not good at politics so they often become other House games. ## Winter is Coming Not just a slogan, Winter Is Coming also means a warning of threats. House Stark is in the North, so they become one of the first House to know that winter is coming. Winter is not a happy season at GoT. Because the winter period is unclear and difficult to predict, even the winter season lasted for nine years. What do you think ? let me know in the comment.
