Forgive me if I get emotional. I’m not sure how the season finale of Game of Thrones could have been any more intense than it was. The tension leading into the final episode of season 10 had reached fever pitch, and there wasn’t a moment’s rest in the entire episode. I might have actually been sweating by the time the episode was over. And the death toll, while not unexpected, left viewers reeling.
Now, it’s time to take a closer look at all the main characters who lived and died in season 5 of the hit HBO show. Warning: Spoilers follow below.
