Goldman and Martin’s series will focus at least in part on “the true origin of the White Walkers,” so expect even further developments on that front - including a potential origin story for the Night King himself. Game of Thrones has already waded into this long-ago period once before, in the traumatic season six episode, “The Door.” The hour is best known as poor Hodor’s last stand, but it also casually dropped a bombshell reveal: the Children of the Forest are the ones responsible for creating White Walkers in the first place, turning a human being into the dreaded force known as the Night King.HBO states that the series will chronicle “the world’s descent from the golden Age of Heroes into its darkest hour.” The logline almost certainly refers to a fabled moment that every man, woman and child in Westeros knows about all too well: the Long Night and the War for the Dawn, a period of darkness and winter in which White Walkers waged war against mankind and the Children of the Forest alike - an era with circumstances all too relevant to the current situation on Game of Thrones.Indeed, while details are scarce at the moment (and understandably so, given the recency of the pilot order), what little we do know tells us a bit about what to expect from Goldman and Martin’s tale.
