Game of Thrones: A Complete Breakdown of Season 8's "Crypts of Winterfell" Teaser

The Starks's journey through the crypts is very reminiscent of GoT's "The Long Walk" promo from season seven. The promo featured Jon, Cersei, and Daenerys walking toward their respective thrones, whereas the Starks are walking toward creepy foreshadowing.

Like King Robert Baratheon did eons ago, Jon passes by the statue of Lyanna Stark. Back in season one, episode one, Robert and his "family" stop by Winterfell, and the first thing Robert does is demand Ned takes him to Lyanna's grave. He lays a feather there, all the while telling Ned that he still has fantasies about killing Rhaegar. Ned attempts to convince him that all the Targaryens are dead, but Robert responds: "Not all of them." Boy, was he right!

As Jon is passes by Lyanna's statue, the feather is blown out of her hands and drifts to the floor. Her voice can be heard saying, "You have to protect him." As we learned in season seven, these are the words Lyanna whispers to Ned on her deathbed in the Tower of Joy. The "him" she's referring to is Jon, her son with Rhaegar Targaryen.

Robert's aforementioned feather makes its own significant appearance in this teaser. When it blows out of Lyanna's hands, it lands on the floor as Jon walks away. There's a bit of irony in the fact that Robert made a vow to kill all the Targaryens (referring to Dany) and the one he should have truly been looking for was under his nose all along. And now, he can't do anything about it. The last time we saw the feather was in season five when Peytr recites the story of the Tourney at Harrenhal to Sansa.

Though Jon doesn't pay much attention to Lyanna's statue while passing it, he does turn back before going too far. He looks around as if searching for someone, and it's like he heard his mother's voice somehow.

Next up we have Sansa, who looks like she never left the North, decked out in her full Lady of Winterfell garb.

Many have noted that Sansa's hair tends to change along her journey — which some believe are ways to detect power hungriness — and her hairstyle in this teaser is a delicate combination of the Northern and Southern style braids.

Sansa walks past Catelyn's statue and spares it an apprehensive glance as she passes by. Considering how many believe that Sansa's journey has shaped her into a strong woman similar to her mother, it's not surprising that she would be the one to pass this particular statue. "All this horror that has come to my family. It's all because I couldn't love a motherless child," Catelyn says as Sansa passes her by. This particular quote is from season three, when Catelyn is talking to Robb's wife, Talisa. The motherless child in question is Jon, who Catelyn died believing was the bastard son of her beloved husband.

We're not sure if Catelyn actually has a statue in the crypt because traditionally, statues were only made for Kings in the North and Lords of Winterfell. Lord Eddard "Ned" Stark broke with tradition by creating statues of Brandon and Lyanna after Robert's rebellion. In line with their rule-breaking father, the Starks could have had a statue created for their mother after settling in.

Arya walks through the crypts as the second part of Catelyn's quote is spoken. She doesn't pass by any statues, but as her mother's words mark her journey, it's implied that they're meant for her as well.

It could also imply that though Arya has returned home and calls herself Stark again, a girl still has no name and thus, no one to look to on her long walk.

Jon passes by Ned's statue, and this time he stops to look. "You are a Stark," Ned's voice-over recites. "You might not have my name, but you have my blood." Ned tells him this back in season one's second episode where they part for the last time. It's here that Ned promises to tell Jon about his mother the next time they meet, which of course never happens. It's assumed that Ned tells Jon this because the younger man was going off to take the Black at the Wall. The next time they would see each other, Jon would be safe from Robert's clutches and have no right to the throne, and thus could safely learn about his true parentage.

This is one statue we do know is actually canon, as it's where Sansa and Arya have their private reunion in season seven. Considering how significant Ned is to all his children (and nephew), it's safe to say that his grave will be revisited once more, perhaps even when Jon's true heritage is revealed. At least then Ned will have somewhat kept his promise.

This is the first time we've seen all three of these particular Stark children reunited! It does make you wonder where Bran is . . .

When the three Starks turn, they look properly confused and terrified, which makes sense considering what they're looking at.

The three see a foreboding surprise: statues of the three of them, hinting that their own deaths might not be that far off.

This might be the first time since Arya properly took a level up in assassin that she looks truly scared.

Sansa audibly gasps as she stares at her statue, seeming overcome with fear at what it represents.

Jon looks seriously disturbed as he stares at his statue, which is especially understandable considering he's died once before and probably wasn't hoping to do so again anytime soon.

As the Starks stare at their statues, Jon's torch suddenly goes out and it gets visibly colder in the crypts. The three turn around as we see frost start covering the feather on the ground.

Cold air and fog steadily invade the crypts, which perfectly foreshadows the danger mounting against the Starks in the form of the long winter and the Night King.

As the cold air comes closer to the three, Jon draws Longclaw and Arya draws Needle — though we do get to see her Valyrian blade sheathed by her side. The two assume defencive positions on either side of Sansa and prepare for the oncoming battle that swiftly approaches. Since Winterfell is most likely going to be in the thick of battle as the Night King's army pours into Westeros, it's a sure sign that the Starks will be fighting for their lives. It looks like we'll seriously have to wonder which — if any — of them will make it out alive.
