Arya was running because her father had just been beheaded by King Joffrey and Gendry needed to run because Cersei Lannister decided she wanted all of the bastards of King Robert dead.

Gendry and Arya Stark were reunited this season. I need you, Ned down at King's Landing, not up here where you're no damn use to anybody. If you're all about the younger Stark sister finally getting a fulfilling love life on The pair always had an emotional connection. It's not his fault I didn't listen. It really did that. Among Arya’s many feats of revenge and sustained tragedies, she honed her fighting skills as a Faceless Man, murdered Walder Frey (David Bradley) and his entire house of generals in retaliation for the Red Wedding, and most recently, schemed with Sansa (Sophie Turner) to execute Lord of Baelish aka Littlefinger (Aidan Gillen).Arya and Gendry were not sure if the other was still alive, the odds being in neither of their favor. They both believed themselves to be the lowborn illegitimate sons of important men.

"I'm acting alongside a child here," he said of his time filming Season 3. But hey, who's complaining? We both did. All I wanted to do was crack skulls and fuck girls. "I was a 25-year-old man."

Ser Davos (Liam Cunningham) helped save Gendry from being executed by Melisandre (Carice van Houten) in Season 3, and wasn’t seen again until Season 7, where he was a key part in helping Jon Snow (Kit Harrington) and his team of elite warriors go beyond the Wall to ensnare a White Walker for evidence. And, honestly, isn't there a more obvious reason why the blacksmith is suddenly back in the picture that was set up for the audience at the end of Season 7? Valyrian steel kills White Walkers, for a start, making him a useful ally to Jon when it comes to crafting swords. On one level, this makes sense. One minute he was fine and then Burned right through him, whatever it was. Copyright © 2020 Heavy, Inc. All rights reserved. When the 30-year-old actor spoke to Still, Demspie made no bones of the fact that, given the actors' 10 year age gap, he's incredibly uncomfortable about the speculation that their characters may get it on,. And while their deep connection remains unaltered, thriving through differing allegiances, and fingers crossed, the Great War.Naturally, these two will strategize and fight alongside Jon Snow and the Realm’s grand army in defeating the When Gendry first met Arya in Season 1, they were both fleeing from King’s Landing to join the Night’s Watch.
She asks him to make her a weapon made of Valyrian steel, for which he jokes “I always knew you were a little rich girl.”Their relationship is grounded in friendship and respect, as Arya was still a child when they last parted ways.
