After the 8th episode of Game of Thrones season 6 was aired, HBO had announced that they wouldn’t release any synopsis for the final two episodes of season 6. All this was being done to make sure that the fans had as less information as possible about what was going to happen in the final two episode. However, HBO made available brief descriptions of both the episodes while submitting Emmy nominations. The synopsis for the Battle of the Bastards was, “Terms of surrender are rejected and accepted,” which was a reference to the events in Meereen and here’s the synopsis for the season 6 finale, Winds of Winter, “Cersei faces her trial.”

Everyone will agree that this synopsis for the season finale is pretty straightforward and everyone knew about it since a long time. HBO made sure that they didn’t give any details about the episode which were unknown while making this synopsis public. However, we now have come across a detailed synopsis of Winds of Winter on the IMDb page for the episode. We don’t know if it is the official synopsis as there is no information about it from HBO. Take a look at the synopsis below.

Cersei stands trial for her crimes, while Jaime celebrates victory with Walder Frey at The Twins. Davos confronts Jon about Melisandre’s actions, and Littlefinger reveals his intentions to Sansa. Meanwhile, Bran continues his quest for knowledge in the far North as “winter” finally arrives.

Most of the details that have been mentioned in the synopsis have already been shown in the preview for the final episode. So there is nothing new that the synopsis has revealed. However, the last line of the synopsis is interesting as it talks about Bran continuing his quest for knowledge, which seems to be a reference to the Lyanna Stark scene in the Tower of Joy. We had reported few days back that Game of Thrones is finally going to show us Lyanna Stark and might also reveal Jon Snow’s true parentage.

Another interesting thing to note is that the word winter is in quotes. The synopsis is stressing on the winter finally arrives part. Is winter a reference to the Night’s King and will the White Walkers finally arrive in Westeros in the season 6 finale? The episode has been directed by Miguel Sapochnik, who also directed Battle of the Bastards and Hardhome episode. So we can expect something massive to happen in the season 6 finale.
