The?series is the first of several potential Game of Thrones prequels and is expected to shed some light — er, darkness — on the fabled time period when the world descended from its "golden Age of Heroes" and brought about those pesky White Walkers that continue to ensnare all of Westeros in the show we all know.
這部劇集是《權(quán)游》那一連串可能會(huì)拍的前傳中的第一部，它會(huì)為我們講述故事里的那個(gè)很久以前的傳說(shuō)時(shí)代：那個(gè)“英雄們的黃金年代”為什么會(huì)終結(jié)？異鬼為什么會(huì)肆虐維斯特洛？這部劇預(yù)計(jì)會(huì)將這些迷霧一一撥開(kāi)（又或者把坑越挖越深）。
