Game of Thrones episode 704 title has been revealed: What does it mean?

Game of Thrones has yet to air the third episode of season 7, and we already know what the fourth episode will be.

We’re two episodes into Game of Thrones season 7, and with Sunday night’s all-new episode (703) “The Queen’s Justice,” sending Jon Snow to Dragonstone to meet with Daenerys Targaryen for the first time, it’s hard to imagine how episode 704 will play out…unless you can put two and two together.

Well, thanks to HBO Asia, we know, at least, what the title of 704 will be. Check it out:

As you can see, episode 704 is titled “The Spoils of War,” and brings with it a very serious undertone.

The term “Spoils of War” usually refers to the winning side gathering the riches left behind by the losers. With Daenerys sending her Unsullied to Casterly Rock, one can only wonder if she’ll be reveling in the spoils.

Another scenario could be the Lannister army, now led by its general Randyl Tarly, has marched on Highgarden, home to House Tyrell, and has taken the castle and its riches. Episode 704, “The Spoils of War,” will be directed by Matt Shakman, a newcomer to the director’s chair for Game of Thrones. 

Episode 4 is also supposed to feature another battle, deemed The Field of Fire 2.0 and will include Daenerys on Drogon, igniting the Lannister army into ashes. Will she learn of Cersei’s maneuvering and finally decide to release the dragon? Don’t forget, we also have a scene of Jaime Lannister charging head long into the face of overwhelming odds.

For now, it looks like Game of Thrones 704, “The Spoils of War,” will be a fiery and destructive battle that might end with the death of a major character or two.
