Warning: Spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 7 are ahead. Read at your own risk...

Now that the highly-anticipated Season 7 premiere of Game of Thrones is behind us, it's time to look ahead at the rest of the penultimate season. HBO is helping out with that by releasing the first preview for next week's episode.

Called 'Stormborn', the second episode of Season 7 is looking like it will be the catalyst for most of the action this year.

Game of Thrones Premiere Contained Major Season 1 Easter Egg

The 20-second preview begins with Jon Snow's men calling him out for his true lineage. It seems like the cat is out of the bag as they tell him, "A Targaryen cannot be trusted." Then again, this could also be advice that Jon shouldn't trust Daenerys if she reaches out to him.

Following the possible revolt, the preview takes things a little further south. Queen Cersei knows that Daenerys has made landfall and that a war is on the way. As she begins to plot, so does Yara Greyjoy, who tells Dany that they can't hesitate any longer if they're going to attack King's Landing.
