Among the rubble and burned bodies, one survivor managed to walk away from the death: Arya Stark, savior of the battle of Winterfell. As she surveyed the work of her new dragon queen, she spied a white horse standing calmly amongst the ashes.

Never one to look a gift horse in the mouth, Arya climbed aboard and rode off.

Meanwhile, fans everywhere were trying to decipher the meaning of the horse...could it have a greater significance within the world of GoT?

Many people thought the "pale mare" might be a biblical reference.

Others tried to figure out the horse's origins:

On Twitter, there's no limit to how crazy your fan theory can be.




Meanwhile, many people were trying to get a good look at Dany's eyes to see whether she matches up with another foreboding prophesy...

No matter what happens in the series finale, Arya's horse will live on in our hearts as the real star of the show.
