Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones."
"Game of Thrones" returns on Sunday, which means it's only a matter of time before another favorite character is meets their end. But before that, let's honor the ones we've already lost.
Over the past six seasons of the hit HBO show, countless characters have been killed. Some of their final lines have been spoken in the throes of battle, while others were not expected to be the last thing they'd ever say.
As Cersei told Ned back on season one, "When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die," and no one is safe.
With a body count destined to rise, here are the most iconic final lines spoken by "Game of Thrones" characters.
Viserys Targaryen: "No! No! I am the dragon. You cannot touch me. I am the dragon. I am a dragon. I want my crown! Dany... Dany, tell them. Make them. Make them. No, you can't. Just, please. Dany, please!"
Viserys threatens to steal Dany, his sister, away and cut her unborn child out of her womb unless Khal Drogo helps him win back the crown of the Seven Kingdoms. Khal tells him that he will get the crown, and Viserys thinks he has won. Khal proceeds to melt some gold pieces and dumps the melted gold on Viserys' head as he pleads for his life. "A crown for a king," Khal says.
Robert Baratheon: "My memory. King Robert Baratheon — murdered by a pig. Give me something for the pain, and let me die."
King Robert is given an excessive amount of wine — per Cersei's secret orders — during a hunting trip, and while drunk, he is gored by a wild boar. Before he succumbs to his injuries, he has Ned write down his final wish — to have Ned rule until his son Joffrey comes of age. Unfortunately, this order means nothing to Cersei, and thus starts the numerous deaths to come in the game of thrones.
Syrio Forel: "What do we say to the God of death? ... Go."
During a sword lesson with Arya, the two are interrupted by Lannister men who have come to take her away. A suspicious Syrio engages them in a fight, even though he is only armed with a wooden sword. Arya begs him to escape with her, but he tells her he will not run. He poses his signature question, and she responds, "Not today," before running off.
