Brother Ray
Ray is my favorite minor character in game of thrones, making just 1 episode appearance, S6XE7 The Broken Man.
Ian McShane is undoubtedly a phenomenal actor, but I think the writing in this subplot is also amazing, which stands out further given it’s in the later seasons.
I hold agnostic beliefs, but in the world of GoT, there’s clearly supernatural presence.
I think if I were living in the GoT universe, I would hold a similar philosophy to Ray, acknowledging ignorance in knowing who the actual god(s) are, but ultimately acknowledging their existence and role.
Ray was the perfect person to encounter the hound essentially at his lowest, given his own life as soldier turned septon, without coming off obnoxious.
The line he delivers to the hound “it’s got plans for Sandor Clegane” followed up later by “I’ve heard stories” is also very chilling to me
As we know, Ray’s fate comes to an end in this episode, but we at least get to see the men who slaughtered Ray and his camp face vengeance.
Ray’s act of saving the hound , and likely their conversation, ultimately leads to the hound fulfilling his final arc of killing his brother, one of the few things they got right in season 8.
Overall just a damn good character.
Curious to hear your thoughts.

Just finished GoT for the very first time. Easily the best character in the show.

One thing that’s always bothered me
When Cersei took the throne after Tommens death, why did nobody question the legitimacy of her claim? It can’t just be because she had the mountain, he’s only good in close quarters.
