The third episode of "Game of Thrones" Season 6 has revealed the mystery "gift" for Ramsay Bolton, which turned out to be the long-lost Rickon Stark and the head of his direwolf Shaggydog. But what could the new Lord of Winterfell probably want with Rickon Stark other than just kill him? Even more so, can Jon Snow save him from a violent "Game of Thrones" death?
In "Game of Thrones" Season 6 Episode 3 (via ComicBook), Ramsay Bolton is told by Smalljohn Umber that they want to help stop Jon Snow and the wildlings. As a gift, he has brought Rickon Stark and his companion Osha.
Ramsay isn't easily convinced until he is presented with the head of Rickon's direwolf Shaggydog. This certainly confirms that the real Rickon Stark is back in Winterfell but now the future isn't looking bright for him (see Rickon Stark's return in the clip below).
What Will Ramsay Bolton Do To Rickon Stark?
Rickon Stark's safety in "Game of Thrones" Season 6 is uncertain (via iDigital Times). After all, Ramsay Bolton has already proven that anyone who has a claim to Winterfell (and as Warden of the North) will immediately be dealt with.
It doesn't matter if it is his father or his newborn baby brother; Ramsay Bolton will get them out of the way. At this point, it's beginning to look like Rickon Stark's return to "Game of Thrones" Season 6 will be as short as Balon Greyjoy's. That is, unless his half-brother Jon Snow can keep him from suffering a painful death.
Will Jon Snow Save Rickon Stark?
The newly resurrected Jon Snow has already declared in "Game of Thrones" Season 6 Episode 3 that his watch is over. But where are you going, Jon Snow? There is a huge possibility that Jon Snow will take the long journey back home to Winterfell and find that Rickon Stark is now Ramsay Bolton's captive.
Will Jon Snow head for Winterfell and save Rickon Stark? The preview for "Game of Thrones" Season 6 Episode 4 has not offered any hints about it, but fans are hoping someone can stop Ramsay Bolton soon. "The Book of The Stranger," the fourth episode of "Game of Thrones" Season 6, will air on HBO on May 15.
