The Game of Thrones season 6 finally reaches HBO this weekend, and aside from seeing what exactly happened to Kit Harington's Jon Snow, there are still a few members of the Stark family still living, and that includes his half-sister Arya. In a new clip, Maisie Williams' fierce character, who was blinded at the end of season 5, trains in her new condition -- and it's almost out of Daredevil!
Arya Stark will continue her training at the beginning of season 6, as she grows closer to shedding her old self to become a person with no face -- and part of that training is learning how to fight now that she's been blinded by a potion.
In the new clip, released days ahead of the season premiere to hype up what's coming, Arya faces the Waif (Faye Marsay), who throws her a stick to learn to fight with it. After Ned Stark's youngest daughter quickly points out she's now blind and can't fight, her trainer is impossibly rough on her.
"That's your problem, not mine," the Waif says simply.
Fans of the Netflix-Marvel show might find similarities with the flashback scenes from season 1 of Daredevil, when Matt Murdock faces Stick, the man who trains him in combat after he loses his sight. Still, considering what Arya has been through in the past few years, namely losing her family, surviving alone and even murdering, it wouldn't be surprising to see her becoming a master assassin by the end of season 6.
As Screen Rant reports, what Arya goes through in Braavos is pretty similar between George R. R. Martin's books to her journey on the HBO show, though so far that only means two published chapters and a preview from The Winds of Winter.
In any case, Williams recently told Seth Meyers that she's not only sick of everyone asking her about Jon Snow -- she's also had it with nobody asking her about what happens to Arya!
The Game of Thrones season 6 premieres on HBO this Sunday, April 24th.
