See New Photos From Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones returns for its fourth season Sunday, April 6, which seems like a ridiculously long time from now. When we last saw our pals in the Seven Kingdoms and beyond, everything was a disaster: A ton of people died; Sansa found herself trapped; Arya continued to be the best even as tragedy upon tragedy befell her; Daenerys was rallying her troops; Tyrion was frustrated; Sam was sad; Jon Snow knew nothing; and the Hound, well, he was very scowly. (This describes practically every episode of GoT.)

Here are a few of the photos from the new season, and you can see the rest on the show’s Facebook page. They’re not revealing at all — oooh, Arya’s still walking around — but we’ll take what we can get.
