Varys discovers that the masters of Astapor, Yunkai, and Volantis have been financing the Sons of the Harpy. In King's Landing, Tommen convenes with the High Sparrow while Jaime and Cersei interrupt a small council meeting, only to be shunned by Kevan Lannister and the Tyrells. Cersei's bodyguard is revealed to be Gregor Clegane. The Waif rigorously trains Arya, whose sight was restored after accepting herself as 'no-one'. In Winterfell, Lord Umber asks for Ramsay's help to protect the North from the Wildlings, presenting Rickon and Osha as a 'gift,' along with the head of Shaggydog, Rickon's direwolf.

In Braavos, Arya is given a second chance and assigned to assassinate an actress named Lady Crane. Beyond the Wall, Brandon learns that the Children of the Forest created the White Walkers to protect themselves from the First Men. In the Iron Islands, Euron wins the Kingsmoot despite confessing to killing Balon, causing Yara and Theon to flee. In Essos, Daenerys orders Jorah Mormont to find a cure for his greyscale and then return. In Meereen, a red priestess named Kinvara meets Tyrion and Varys and promises to support Daenerys. Brandon's unaccompanied vision allows the Night King to physically touch him, making the cave vulnerable.

He also takes House Tarly's ancestral Valyrian steel sword, Heartsbane. Arya warns Lady Crane that she is to be assassinated, then returns to the House of Black and White and retrieves Needle. H'ghar approves the Waif's request to kill Arya. Jaime attempts to rescue Margaery from the Faith Militant, only to find she has repented and Tommen has forged an alliance with the Faith. He removes Jaime from the Kingsguard and orders him to help Walder Frey, who is holding Edmure Tully hostage, and to retake Riverrun from Brynden. Benjen Stark, the man who saved Meera and Brandon, says he was turned by the White Walkers but later unturned by the Children using Dragonglass.

Arya leads the Waif into the darkened catacombs and kills her, using Needle and the fighting skills she acquired while blind.
