For nearly a decade, HBO’s Game of Thrones was partly well-known for its ruthless character deaths of heroes, villains, and everyone in between. Much like author George R. R. Martin’s source material, many of these deaths are depicted as shocking. However, they also often echo something ironic and darkly poetic from a previous story event.These plot points are both clever callbacks to earlier episodes or seasons, but they also serve to conclude or mark a milestone in a given character arc. From the handful of dramatic deaths that occurred during the “Red Wedding” and the ones that stemmed from it to Daenerys Targaryen’s demise, Game of Thrones often wore irony on its sleeve.This leads Ygritte to join the assault on Castle Black in retaliation, killing Ollie’s father in a village raid by shooting him with an arrow. However, in the chaotic Battle of Castle Black when Jon is at Ygritte’s mercy, Ollie breaks the tension by killing her with an arrow. This was one of the many examples of Game of Thrones’ bitter karma at work.
