‘Game of Thrones’ series finale: Every person on the Westeros council

HBO’s “Game of Thrones” was never known for happy endings, but the series finale episode did its best to tie up loose ends for surviving characters— and even hinted at a bright future for the seven kingdoms.

On the series-ender, following the sudden death of Daenerys Targaryen, representatives from the major houses in Westeros gathered to find a way forward. At the suggestion of Tyrion Lannister, they even appointed a brand new ruler who will lead the efforts to rebuild the realm after years of war and tyrannical acts of violence.

Here’s every character who was present for that fateful meeting on the sixth episode of season eight, titled “The Iron Throne,” plus the ones who went on to join the new king’s small council.
