The seventh season of the fantasy drama television series Game of Thrones premiered on HBO on July 16, 2017, and is scheduled to conclude six weeks later on August 27, 2017. Unlike previous seasons that consisted of ten episodes each, the seventh season consists of only seven. Like the previous season, it largely consists of original content not found in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, and also adapts material Martin revealed to showrunners about the upcoming novels in the series. The series is adapted for television by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss.
Arya returns to Winterfell, where she is reunited with Sansa and spars with Brienne, both of whom are unnerved by her exceptional fighting skills. Bran unemotionally bids farewell to Meera, divulging that he is no longer the boy she accompanied through the North. Littlefinger presents Bran with the dagger that was nearly used to assassinate him previously. Cersei promises the Iron Bank a full return on their investment, as a loot train from Highgarden is soon to arrive. Jon brings Daenerys to the dragonglass mine, where he shows ancient cave paintings depicting that the First Men and the Children of the Forest joined forces against the undead. Later, Daenerys learns that the Casterly Rock attack was a Lannister decoy, with Highgarden falling to the Lannisters. Despite Tyrion's protests, she decides to take action. Led by Daenerys riding Drogon and the Dothraki cavalry, Jaime and Bronn are caught by surprise while supervising the gold shipment, and the Dothraki and Drogon's fire decimate the Lannister army. Drogon is wounded by a bolt from Bronn manning the scorpion ballista, while Jaime tries to attack Daenerys. Drogon launches his fire breath at Jaime, but Bronn tackles him into a river, where both are weighted down by their armor.
