Without warning, HBO has dropped the first teaser for season 7 of Game of Thrones. Following the recent announcement that the cult-favorite series will be returning summer 2017 with less episodes, this seems to be a positive way to keep hardcore fans at bay. In the new clip, audiences get a behind-the-scenes look at the production process behind the seventh season. Showcasing footage of various props and sets from the series, ominous sound bites from season 6 provide a soundtrack of sorts for the reel. Although any plot hints are hard to make out, an interesting detail is the painting of multiple eye stones, which are typically used in the funerary rites of Westerosi nobles. Could this possibly be foreshadowing future deaths in the forthcoming season? We’ll just have to wait (an unbearably long time) and see. You can watch the full teaser above.
