All this happens as Cersei watches the destruction unfold from the top floor of the Red Keep.

Down on the ground, realizing they've been beaten, the Lannister soldiers throw down their swords in surrender, and shout to ring the bells. After what seems like an eternity, the bells finally ring, and it seems that the bloodshed has ended. But Daeny's rage still intensifies, and she flies Drogon straight toward Cersei. The dragon burns everything in its path as Tyrion looks on in horror, as innocents and children burn.

On the ground, Grey Worm throws a spear into a Lannister soldier, and the fighting resumes, much to Jon's disapproval.

Meanwhile, Jaime finds the secret path that will lead him to Cersei, which is where a still-living Euron washes up on shore. The two start to duel, as Euron stabs Jaime in the side with a dagger, but the Kingslayer is able to recover stabs Euron through the stomach. Jaime staggers off, greatly injured. Euron, with his dying breath, shouts \"I'm the man that killed Jaime Lannister!\"

As Cersei finally agrees it's time to leave, the Mountain runs into his brother, the Hound. The two begin to fight as Cersei pushes on forward. As they fight, Cersei walks alone through the wreckage when a bleeding Jaime finds her. They embrace, and begin their escape.

Meanwhile, The Hound stabs the Mountain through the stomach, but it doesn't do much. The latter throws the former down the stairs, and pulls the sword from his body with ease. The Mountain starts choking the Hound as the latter stabs his brother fruitlessly with a dagger. He then begins to crush the Hound's skull, but he's able to resist and stabs the Mountain through his eye. But even that still doesn't kill the unholy monstrosity.

Cackling with laughter, the Hound tackles his brother and they both explode through a crumbling wall, then fall to their deaths into the fires far below.

Jon calls for his forces to fall back as Daenerys continues to burn the city and a bloodied Arya wakes up in a haze. She does her best to save innocent lives, but the destruction is just too much.

In the underground tunnels, Cersei and Jaime continue their escape. Unfortunately, rubble from the destruction above has blocked their exit. Realizing their fate, a tearful Cersei pleads that she doesn't want their baby to die. Jaime holds her face as they look at each other, and declares, \"Nothing else matters -- only us.\"

The remaining tunnels then collapse upon them, apparently killing them.

Arya once again awakes, covered in ash. She walks silently through the city, taking in the destruction and the now charred, horrifying corpses. In the middle of the city, Arya sees a lone, white horse. She climbs aboard and rides out of a completely destroyed King's Landing.

There's just one episode of \"Game of Thrones\" remaining. It premieres at 9 p.m. Sunday on HBO.
