The goal of the Night's King to my understanding is to destroy the living. He is the undead personified, so they will visit, in an unclear fashion, every place where life can hide. We have seen the affect of Valyrian steel on the whites and the Dragonglass. Either could kill Viseryion I would think to the same affect the Night's King did. It's a magic thing.
They will have to split up, but they never die, nor do they need supplies so time is on their side, also, all of the dead south of the wall can be risen.
The Vale of Arryn.
I'd guess Bronn and Pod go with Jaime and Tyrion.
Who knows if Dragons survive, but I would guess no, I am guessing that it is similar to Lord of the Rings, and this is a point of time where Magic comes and goes from their world. Also, it seems to be paralleling England's move towards more democratic government.
It is my guess that Sansa marries Sweet Robin and ends up as sort of a default ruler/Queen. Westeros will be decimated, but she can hide in the vale which would be near impregnable to anyone without a Dragon. I also think that The Hound ends up her paramour/guardian. He loves her, and Martin will give a nod to Beauty and the Beast.
Maybe Jon and Dany have twins. Dragons sweep Dany off somewhere to protect her while giving birth. She dies, dragons protect the babies. Boom, repopulate with incest/Targs.
Or Same sitch above but Jon dies killing Bran whom is the NK and twin targs are born to rule whats left.

You guys are overthinking this. If you keep this up for a full year you're likely to have a brain aneurism and then you'll miss Season 8. Don't miss Season 8.

If a democracy emerges, clearly Lyanna Mormont for the win. First act of office, destroy that goofy Iron Throne. If Jorah survives, she can let him go run Bear Island and remember the good old days when he was creeping on Dany.
Things like this make me sad that its going to be over a year of waiting.
I know I am two days late and a dollar short, but...
I totally tweeted this, almost word-for-word on Tuesday night.
And this, except I said: "Meh, at least it's not twincest" = how GoT has totally f***ed our perspective.
My other condensed thoughts:
- Good thing Qyburn was wearing a robe when he grabbed that wight's hand, because brother got EXCITED.
- I definitely didn't rewind GOT to see Jon Snow's butt again.
- I love The Hound and Brienne basically being, like, civil co-parents who aren't together anymore over Arya.
- I will go dig Tormund out with my bare hands, just to see him with The Hound again.

This was my thinking, too. Cersei did it to manipulate Tyrion - she gave him just enough of a hint for him to think he was clever. One of Tyrion's great weaknesses is enjoying his own insight and intelligence too much at times, and Cersei would certainly know that.
My predictions:
- Dany gets pregnant. They find out that Jon's the heir, and there is a rift between the two. One of them dies, I'm assuming Jon, and the other lives on to reign alone with their baby as the successor.
- There are some about Bran being the Night's King (and Bran the Builder, and a couple of other people via time travel - LINK which would explain why Bran was so into Old Nan's stories about essentially himself). And that the dead were creating the Stark direwolf sigil when they came over the wall:
I'm not sure what I think about that. If it's true, I think Bran is essentially going to have to battle himself and they both die.
- Cleganebowl will happen, but I don't see either making it through.
- I don't think Cersei is really pregnant, and I think Jaime kills her, especially after she essentially half-assed ordered his murder. But I think that he also doesn't make it for some reason, just because I don't see him being a full character without Cersei.
- I think Sansa rules the north and the Eyrie in conjunction with whomever (either Dany or Jon) is the ultimate ruler. I sort of don't care about Arya's character at this point, but I'd guess she's the head of the Nightsguard or something, I don't know. She won't want to sit still.
- I don't think Tyrion makes it, either. Or if he does, he puts himself in exile. I think he's done with Westeros. Maybe him and Jorah go off into the sunset together and travel.
I had more. Eh... screw it. New prediction - Pod takes the throne.

You only rewound once?
Nah, not really. Some interesting theories. It's going to be a Looooooong winter and summer and winter again (probably) before we can determine their accuracy.
And I completely missed the Direwolf sigil (probably because of the jumpy freezeframe buffering I had going on while I watched it).
I thought it looked like something, wasn't sure what - but I still look at it and wonder if it is more wishful thinking than reality by conspiracy theorists. I can see some logic in it, but sort of feel like the show is going more obvious than that on the big plot points.
OH! And Kit Harrington must do squats. Lots of squats. That thing is perfect.
There seem to be quite a lot of people in here who think that all the prophecies will be tied up in a neat and tidy bow and that the show will end with the traditional good triumphs over evil fantasy trope.
Wasn't it Davos who had a line with the general sentiment of, "If you think this all has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."?
Prophets can be wrong. And the real world is a cold, hard ***** at least according to GRRM. Most people might not agree with me, but if this series ends with a fairy-tale, ride off into the sunset conclusion I will be disappointed.

Not Davos but you got the sentiment correct.
Of course it was Ramsey. I'm embarrassed that I pinned that one on Davos now.
Actually, that quote originated from GRRM himself
There is no way the Army of the Dead formed into a shape that can only be viewed from above. They aren't a marching band on College Gameday. That would be pointless and poor writing if they did. Just my 2 cents.
