Game of Thrones: The King in the North

Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 10 The Winds of Winter

Realizing that Jon has proven his worth by retaking Winterfell, the Northern lords, Knights of the Vale, and wildlings declare Jon the new King in the North, while Sansa sits next to him, she smirks at Littlefinger as his plans fall apart but then frowns with worry as she notices the glare he is giving Jon.

LORD MANDERLY: Lady Mormont speaks harshly and truly. My son died for Robb Stark, the Young Wolf. I didn’t think we’d find another king in my lifetime. I didn’t commit my men to your cause ’cause I didn’t want more Manderlys dying for nothing. But I was wrong. Jon Snow avenged the Red Wedding. He is the White Wolf. The King in the North.
LORD GLOVER: I did not fight beside you on the field and I will regret that until my dying day. A man can only admit when he was wrong and ask forgiveness.
JON: There’s nothing to forgive, my lord.
LORD GLOVER: There will be more fights to come. House Glover will stand behind House Stark as we have for a thousand years. And I will stand behind Jon Snow… the King in the North!
MAN: The King in the North!
ALL: The King in the North! The King in the North! The King in the North! The King in the North!

Game of Thrones: Davos confronts Melisandre

Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 10 The Winds of Winter

At Winterfell, as Jon and Melisandre are talking, Davos enters and confronts her with the burned stag figurine. Melisandre admits burning Shireen alive, and Davos then requests permission from Jon to punish Melisandre for her crimes but the red priestess counters that she can be useful in the coming war against the dead. Jon instead exiles Melisandre from the North, with both Davos and him threatening to execute her if she ever returns to the North again.

JON: What is that?
DAVOS: Tell him. Tell him who it belonged to.
MELISANDRE: The Princess Shireen.
DAVOS: Tell him what you did to her. Tell him!
MELISANDRE: We burned her at the stake.
DAVOS: Why?
MELISANDRE: The army was trapped. The horses were dying. It was the only way.
DAVOS: You burned a little girl alive!
MELISANDRE: I only do what my Lord commands.
DAVOS: If he commands you to burn children, your Lord is evil.
MELISANDRE: We are standing here because of him. Jon Snow is alive because the Lord willed it.
DAVOS: I loved that girl like she was my own. She was good. She was kind. And you killed her!
MELISANDRE: So did her father. So did her mother. Her own blood knew it was the only way.
DAVOS: The only way for what? They all died anyway. You told everyone Stannis was the one. You had him believing it, all of them fooled. And you lied.
MELISANDRE: I didn’t lie. I was wrong.
DAVOS: Aye, you were wrong. How many died because you were wrong?

DAVOS: I ask your leave to execute this woman for murder. She admits to the crime.
JON: Do you have anything to say for yourself?
MELISANDRE: I’ve been ready to die for many years. If the Lord was done with me, so be it, but he’s not. You’ve seen the Night King, Jon Snow. You know the great war is still to come. You know the army of the dead will be upon us soon. And you know I can help you win that war.
JON: Ride south today. If you return to the North, I’ll have you hanged as a murderer.
DAVOS: If you ever come back this way, I will execute you myself.
