Did Game of Thrones complete Melisandre's prophecy about Arya killing someone with green eyes? Even though the HBO show'due south ending wrapped up most of its big ideas, fans are however debating many details, specially when it comes to prophecies. Game of Thrones was a series that was packed with prophecy, visions, dreams and, while some were very clearly fulfilled, others were rushed through or seemed to be forgotten about past the end. Merely while some fence that this was but bad writing (one of the biggest complaints aboutGame of Thrones' final season), there are ways to make nigh fit.

Back inGame of Thrones season 3, when Melisandre met Arya for the beginning fourth dimension, the Red Priestess told Arya: "I see a darkness in y'all, and in that darkness, eyes staring dorsum at me. Brown eyes, blueish eyes, green eyes, optics you'll shut forever. Nosotros will meet again". This was repeated when they did meet each other again at the Boxing of Winterfell, with emphasis on the blueish eyes being those of the Night King. Merely what of the brown and green eyes?

For the brown, Walder Frey is Arya'south biggest impale with that eye color. As for the green, a favorite fan theory was that this referred to Cersei Lannister, yet not only did Arya not impale the Queen, she didn't kill any other major players after the Night King. However, it's possible that the prophecy was referring to a previous, notwithstanding important green-eyed kill of hers: Littlefinger.

Arya killed Littlefinger in theGame of Thrones season vii finale every bit the culmination of a plot that brought the Stark siblings back together. While some viewers speculated this was just a fake out and that Littlefinger would render for season 8, it's now clear that he was most definitely expressionless. And that's good for Melisandre's Arya prophecy: in the books, Littlefinger is described as having night hair with some gray in information technology, and "laughing greenish-grey optics, like a cat."

Accepting Littlefinger equally the green eyes Arya was destined to kill ways changing the order of Melisandre's prophecy, from "chocolate-brown eyes, blue eyes, greenish eyes" to "brown eyes, greenish eyes, blue eyes," although not only is there nada to say that Melisandre was placing a specific timeline on her words, that's exactly the reordering she does during the Battle of Winterfell. Given how vague some ofGame of Thrones' prophecies are, none of that is much of a stretch.

Of course, in addition to Walder Frey, Littlefinger and the Night King, Arya killed enough of people as she slaughtered her way from King's Landing to Essos and back again, and many were not on screen long enough to really pay attention to their eye colors. With that in mind, it's perfectly possible that Melisandre was simply predicting Arya's journeying from a tomboy to a trained assassin, a prophecy that most definitely came true. The Cerise Woman'southward words to her at the Boxing of Winterfell may have been goose egg more than than a reminder of how capable a killer Arya is, which would fit, albeit a lilliputian less neatly.

The biggest effect with Littlefinger, in detail, being the green-eyed person that Arya kills is that, in the Game of Thrones series, Aidan Gillen has bluish eyes. Notwithstanding, in the books, Littlefinger may want to lookout his back when the youngest Stark girl is around.
