In season 5, Cersei Lannister told the High Sparrow (the leader of the religious movement) that there was a great sinner among the midst. So the Sparrows arrested Margaery and her brother Loras as punishment for their act of falsehood and fornification. However, Cersei’s plan backfired and she got arrested as well for committing the acts of adultery, incest, and regicide. Just like Margaery and Loras, Cersei also got a cell of her own. She confessed that she was a sinner and did the Walk of Atonement. The Sparrows then cut off her hair. She was asked to do the walk of shame, and after doing so she promised to get revenge. Although she is still not free from the clutches of the Sparrows yet. She is still under trial. Margaery and Loras are still in their cells.

Myrcella, Cersei’s daughter, has just been saved by his father Jamie (whom Myrcella always thought was her uncle). Myrcella was in Dorne cos she has fallen in love with Trystane Martell and is bethroted to him. While there, Myrcella is being watched by Ellaria Sand, who is the widow of Oberyn Martell whom the Lannisters killed. Ellaria threatens to torture and mutilate Myrcella and send the pieces to the Lannisters in King’s Landing. So Jamie Lannister rescued her from Dorne. While saying her goodbyes, Myrcella received a goodbye kiss from Ellaria, but her kiss was coated with fatal poison thus killing Myrcella when they sailed off. Only Ellaria had an antidote.

Reek and Sansa Stark escaped the Bolton manor, and killed off the kennel master’s daughter, Myranda, whom Ramsey Bolton “loved”. Reek and Sansa jumped off the castle and escaped?

In the meantime, Brien of Tarth has just killed off Stannis Baratheon whom the Red Queen promised is the real true king. When Brien found Stannis, he has just been defeated in the battle between the Boltons, so Brien just finished him off and served her duty for Renley Baratheon.

The last we saw of the Red Queen was in Castle Black. She was left there along with Ser Davos while Stannis fights off the Boltons. The Red Woman said that Stannis will not be defeated because he is the reeal true king, boy was she wrong.

In Castle Black, a mutiny has just started. Thorne and his men killed Jon Snow and labeled him a traitor. Jon Snow had just arrived from a really freightening encounter with the Walkers. As Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch in Castle Black, he asked his men to invite the Wildlings in cos Jon said they will help defend the wall from the White Walkers. The Wall was built to keep off white walkers and wildlings, so some of his men refused to follow his orders and treated their Lord Commander as a traitor for disobeying the rules. So that’s how Jon Snow got killed.

Now somewhere far away in the East, Tyrion and Jorah arrived in Meereen. Tyrion wanted to see the Great Queen Daenerys and Jorah just wanted to win her heart back. Tyrion and Jorah had a long journey and they almost got attacked by Stone Men. Jorah was touched by a Stone Man and now he is worried that he’ll become one of them as his arm started to have scales. They were then captured by slavesellers. So they got to Meereen by being slaves pitted to fight off in a gladiatorial spectacle. The Queen was reluctantly watching them when suddenly a surprsie attack by the Sons of the Harpy devastated the fighting pit. Daenerys is saved by her dragon Drogon who flew her away. Queen Daenerys left her men and people in Meereen. Daario, now a follower of Daenerys, asked Tyrion to stay in Meereen to govern the kingdom while he and Jorah look for Daenerys.

We then saw Drogon leave Daeny and she got captured by the Dothraki tribe.

Our other favorite Stark, Arya has just turned blind as punishment for killing someone who was not hers to kill.
