The fact that present-day Bran has technically not yet made this mistake would explain why both he and the Night King can exist at the same time. He will attempt to convince them not to go through with the procedure, but since time in the Thrones universe seems to operate in a closed loop - i.e., you cannot change the past through time travel, you can only fulfill it - he will be predestined to fail and his consciousness will end up trapped inside the body of the Night King. If Bran does continue to try to change the past, a detailed theory laid out by Reddit user turm0il26 posits that he will make a last-ditch effort to prevent the destruction of Westeros by warging into the man that the Children of the Forest chose to turn into the first White Walker.

However, itвЂ™s still unclear if Bran himself understands this, despite the late Three-Eyed RavenвЂ™s warning that вЂњthe past is already written. Hodor - we already know that trying to rewrite history in the Game of Thrones universe doesnвЂ™t turn out too well. Thanks to his previous meddling in the past - R.I.P. Since Jaime is the babyвЂ™s father, death by childbirth could technically be construed as his doing - especially considering that prophecies in Game of Thrones donвЂ™t usually play out literally. In the books, Cersei long assumes that Maggy was talking about Tyrion, but as the second-born twin, Jaime is technically also her little brother. Since вЂњvalonqarвЂќ means вЂњlittle brotherвЂќ in High Valyrian, some fans believe that this line was purposefully cut from the show in order to avoid giving too much away about what was to come. MartinвЂ™s A Song of Ice and Fire series: вЂњAnd when your tears have drowned you, the valonqar shall wrap his hands about your pale white throat and choke the life from you.вЂќ Having Cersei die in childbirth could also be a way to fulfill the final prediction that Maggy the Frog delivers about CerseiвЂ™s fate in George R.R. If youвЂ™re someone, like Cersei herself, who gives credence to the valonqar prophecy, then the chances of her successfully giving birth to another child seem low. Setting aside the fact that the whole women faking pregnancies trope is played out, it seems much more likely that Cersei is indeed pregnant, but will either miscarry or die in childbirth.
