Game of Thrones - Sansa Stark HBO

The latest trailer for "Game of Thrones" season 6 has been released by HBO and it gives several short sequences hinting at events to come. A report from IGN has broken down the different sequences in the trailer to decipher Easter eggs and potential spoilers that the trailer can offer to the audiences.

According to the report, there are sequences where it appears Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) will be leading an army of both Lannister soldiers and Tyrell soldiers against the Sparrows and their leader, the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce). Other scenes indicate that Jaime will then move on to lead the siege against Riverrun.

Other sequences showcase Ser Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham) leading several men of the Night's Watch, along with the direwolf Ghost, to protect the body of Lord Commander Jon Snow from those who betrayed and murdered him, who include Ser Alliser Thorne (Owen Teale).

Lady Melisandre (Carice van Houten) is seen in Castle Black and the tail-end of the trailer reveals the White Walkers and their king invading the Wall, hinting that they may be able to break through and begin their attack on the southern lands. 

Sansa (Sophie Turner) is seen wearing Stark clothing, indicating that she survived her escape from Winterfell and the character states that all she wants is to retrieve what was taken from her, indicating that she is beginning her siege to take back Winterfell from the Boltons.

Across the sea, several scenes showcase Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) being stripped by the Dothraki, indicating she is being thrown down as a slave and no longer a Khaleesi. However, her dragon Drogon is seen flying overhead, indicating that it may attack and burn Vaes Dothrak in order to save her.

Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) is then seen attempting to free Daenerys's two other dragons, Rhaegal and Viserion, from the dungeons. 

"Game of Thrones" season 6 will premiere this April 24.
