Game of Thrones is concluding with its eighth and final season in April, and HBO has released a bunch of new photos from the upcoming season. The photos include your favorite characters who are still alive along with characters you love to hate including Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, Sansa Stark, Aria Stark, Bran Stark, Cersei Lannister, Tyrion Lannister, Jamie Lannister, Brienne of Tarth and more.

In the last season that premiered in August of 2017, fans went crazy over the love scene between Jon and Daenerys. The moment really heightened since the series revealed the true identity of Jon, the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. That meant that Daenerys is Jon’s aunt. Well, by looking at the first photo, the two are standing ready for whatever chaos will descend upon them. The two have teamed up to take on the White Walkers, but will they survive the war? Not if Cersei has anything to say about that.
