game of thrones - What is the status of the Lannisters after Season 8 Episode 5, "The Bells"?


Tyrion is still alive at the end of Season 8 Episode 5, "The Bells", however,



Both Jaime and Cersei died in this episode.



Is Tyrion now



the last Lannister alive?





Answer



Of the named Lannisters in the show the only remaining ones are Tyrion Lannister and Dorna Lannister, Kevan's wife. However, Dorna is a Lannister through marriage and Kevan is now dead so up to you if you count her and of course her true status is unknown.


There may be other Lannisters but we haven't seen them or been told about them in the show so per show canon it seems only these two are alive.


There is also the case of Tysha whom Tyrion married in his younger days. However, the marriage was essentially a sham as the Septon was drunk and Tysha was a whore who Jaime had paid to sleep with Tyrion. The marriage lasted two weeks until Tywin found out and sent her away. I think we can assume she isn't a Lannister per show canon but again it's up to you if you count her or not.




There is also the Lannisters of Lannisport who are a cadet branch of House Lannister. In the show we know of Reginald Lannister and his wife. Reginald was part of the Lannister forces, a captain during the War of the Five Kings but was sent home by Tywin for not doing a good enough job and making excuses. As far as we know he is still alive.

story identification - Animation: floating island, flying pests

At least 20 years ago I watched a short animated film which stuck in my mind. The whole thing was wordless, possibly European, and I'm pretty sure I didn't imagine it... It featured a flying island which was inhabited by some creatures who (in my memory) reminded me of the Moomins. The island was frequently bothered by large winged animals who swooped around, although I don't think they did any actual damage. At the end one of the moomin creatures suddenly gets a weird feeling, feels forced to climb to the top of the island and then plunges down a shaft right through the centre - only to emerge at the bottom as one of the flyers. Answer Skywhales from 1983. The story begins with a man warning the tribe of approaching skywhales. The drummers then warn everybody of the hunt as everyone get prepared to set "sail". Except one man is found in his home sleeping as the noise wake him up. He then gets ready and is about to take his weapon as he hesitates then decides ...

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

aliens - Interstellar Zoo story

I vaguely remember this story from my childhood: it was about an interstellar zoo that came to Earth with lots of bizarre and unusual species, and humans would file through and gape at all the crazy looking creatures from other planets. The twist came at the end when the perspective shifted to the other side of the bars and we discovered that the "creatures" were traveling through space on a kind of safari. They thought they were the visitors and we were the animals. Neither side knew that the other side thought they were the zoo creatures. Answer Got it. Zoo, by Edward D. Hoch. Published in 1958.
