HBO has released the first photos for Game of ThronesSeason 7,Watch Selina's Gold Online episode 5, "Eastwatch," which -- as we saw in the ominous teaser trailer -- will feature the Night King and his army of White Walkers on the move.
As The Hound revealed after his creepy vision in the season premiere, the wights are seemingly targeting the Night's Watch stronghold of Eastwatch-by-the-Sea, which is now being manned by Tormund and the Wildlings.
You wouldn't know it from these photos, though, since they mostly focus on the political intrigue going on between Daenerys, Jon, Tyrion, and Varys.

Would it be enough to make Tyrion turn on his queen? We don't buy it.

The promo for "Eastwatch" features an intriguing moment in which Jon comes face to face with Drogon for the first time, and we have a theory that it might signal his secret Targaryen heritage.
If Drogon treats Jon differently, when Dany's scaly offspring are generally super suspicious of interlopers, she's going to notice it.

Considering Sam's recent dive into the Citadel's secret archives unearthed the cure for greyscale and a hidden cache of dragonglass under Dragonstone, we can't wait to see what useful plot device they'll discover next!
