Oberyn, who was in town for the wedding anyway, vowed to get his revenge on The Mountain for murdering his wife and children. Prince Oberyn Martell of Dorne (who we loved) decided he would fight to save Tyrion in a trial by combat after he learned that Cersei named The Mountain as her champion. Joffrey’s death may be the most satisfying moment in Thrones history, but the showrunners giveth and the showrunners taketh away. Tywin tells Tommen that wisdom is what makes a good king great. Unfortunately for him, his mother is insane (more on this in the coming seasons). Tommen is a great kid, his cat, Ser Pounce, is adorable and he would make a wonderful king. Tyrion is immediately put in jail for the time being and Tommen is named the new king. She ended up on a ship with him, headed to the Eyrie where her (crazy) Aunt Lysa Arryn lives. Amidst the chaos, Sansa is beckoned by Joffrey’s drunk jester, who was discreetly hired to help her escape by Littlefinger. Tyrion is immediately blamed for the death, not only because Tyrion handed Joffrey the poisoned mug but also because Cersei has hated him every minute of his life. Obviously, this sets off a series of chaotic events in the capital. The camera holds on Joffrey’s dead face for what feels like several minutes, giving us the full satisfaction required for his death. The actual poisoning comes from Olenna, who wins MVP of this season. Thankfully, he dies after being poisoned by the super-secret duo of Olenna Tyrell and Petyr “Littlefinger” Baelish, who, as we know, loves climbing the ladder of chaos. The phrase “only a mother could love” is very accurate when it comes to describing Joffrey as a king and as a person. ![]() King Joffrey is widely regarded as the biggest P.O.S. ![]() The swords would not remain in either Lannister’s possession for long. The season opens with Tywin Lannister and the most skilled Valyrian sword smith in the Known World, melting down Ned Stark’s greatsword into two Valyrian steel swords: Widow’s Wail for Joffrey and Oathkeeper for Jaime. What happened in Game of Thrones season 4 Some key points will be glanced over in favor of what will come to be important this season. Keep in mind: The following points should serve as reminders as to what happened in the season, but focused in relation to season 8. There were a few moments in season 4 that prompted speculation into what might happen in Game of Thrones’ final season. Three of those four things happened in one episode. King Joffrey was poisoned on his wedding night, Tyrion was wrongfully jailed, a new hero came, fought the mountain, got cocky and died and Sansa Stark finally got the hell out of town. In King’s Landing, things were even more chaotic. After big changes, some stability usually helps, Dany. Daenerys completed her tour of Slaver’s Bay by taking the last of the big three cities, Meereen, but as it turns out, her quick-fix solutions weren’t holding up in the previous two locales and they slipped back into their old ways.
