The Game of Thrones Prequel is now gradually taking shape. The production is reportedly ongoing, and there are leaking set photos emerging online. As the spinoff is said to be set during the Age of Heroes and the Long Night, here are the possible legendary characters that fans may see.
Symeon Star-Eyes
Symeon Star-Eyes is said to be a blind knight that has star sapphires as his eyes. He has a long staff with blades at both ends, just like Arya (Maisie Williams). He spins it in his hands to fight the enemies, per What Culture.
There are theories that Symeon is a White Walker. So if he ever happens to make it into the Game of Thrones Prequel, fans may know more about Symeon and his star eyes.
Garth Greenhand
There are theories Garth is the one who leads the First Men to Westeros. But, there are also claims that he is the first and only person in Westeros since the beginning.
There are a lot of assumptions surrounding Garth Greenhand's mysterious identity, and the Game of Thrones Prequel is expected to shed some light on his history. If he is indeed the first human in Westeros, he may have the chance to meet the Children of the Forest and the giants.
The Night's Watch's First Lord Commander
When Bran the Builder built the Wall after the defeat of the White Walkers for the first time, the incident incites them to form the military order of the Night's Watch. Although the original series and George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novel, which inspires Game of Thrones, explore the Wall's story, it didn't reveal who is the first Lord Commander of them all.
There are theories it is Brand the Builder, but he is also the founder of House Stark so it may never happen, knowing Lord Commanders can't delve into politics. So, the Game of Thrones Prequel may introduce the first leader of the Wall's guards to know more about its history.
Meanwhile, the spinoff series' production is now taking place in Belfast, where Game of Thrones was also located, Business Times reported. Set photos are now emerging on Twitter, and it exactly looks the same as the original.
The Game of Thrones Prequel's production set has a lot of signage, but there is a particular one that gets almost everyone's attention. There is an image of a mammoth seen sticking on a street post, implying the coming of this extinct creature to the show.
As the Game of Thrones Prequel is set thousands of years when the giants are still thriving, it may not be impossible to see mammoths living with them as allies. The spinoff series may not hit the small screens until 2021.
