In a segment called "Ed Goes Red & Gold," the cast and crew of the evidence reverberate on Ed Sheeran's cameo and how he got cast. "Ed Sheeran has got a beautiful voice, and nosotros knew that he was a fan of the show, and we knew that Maisie [Williams, who plays Arya Stark] was obsessed with him," showrunner David Benioff explained. "So we always thought it would be fun to try to go him into a Maisie scene at some point." In the scene, Sheeran plays a Lannister bannerman and Arya discovers him and his fellow troops after hearing him sing.

For anyone who saw the episode live, it was difficult to shake the feeling that Arya, who has spent fourth dimension training under the Faceless Men, might be slashing some Lannister soldier throats in the scene. "When I get-go got the scene and I saw I was a Lannister soldier and it was Maisie, I merely assumed we'd all become killed at the end," Sheeran explained in the documentary.

But in a surprise twist, though, Arya ends up having a sweet moment with the soldiers, fifty-fifty sharing bootleg blackberry wine and fire-roasted rabbit with them. "Information technology's just a nice moment for her to actually savour human company without lies and trickery," Williams said of her character'southward rare man moment with the Lannister soldiers. "She really enjoys hearing their stories and just finding a scrap of normality once more."

While many fans take questioned the purpose of the scene, the conclusion seems to be that it was a nice moment for Arya to footstep away from her role as a Faceless Man and just exist human. Information technology was likewise meant to showcase tha, even though Arya is a skilled mercenary, she is nevertheless non perceived as a threat because she is a young girl. This moment thus acts as the perfect counter-scene to Arya'southward intro scene in the first episode of Season 7, when she murdered a group of party-goers while wearing Walder Frey's mask. The scene highlights how much of a threat she really is, since no one suspects her, even when she outright tells the Lannister soldiers she's out to kill Cersei Lannister.

Even though she was headed to Male monarch's Landing with the intent to kill Cersei, she is able to step back in this moment and see that the Lannister soldiers are merely people, like her, with families they want to continue condom. "I think the underlying theme is that, as in any war, the soldiers are just people and nosotros are immature boys," said Sheeran, noting that one signal of the scene was to assistance Arya gain some perspective on the people fighting this war before joining it herself.
