Everyone involved in 。 Game of Thrones。knows better than to reveal plot details – especially now that the show has outpaced George R. R. Martin’s novels – but that doesn’t stop them from dropping the occasional hint to tantalize and torture us.。

At the recent Con of Thrones convention in Nashville, the show’s sound designer, Paula Fairfield, proved that she’s almost as skilled in the art of teasing as showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss, calling Season 7 “breathtaking.”

She admits that the battle at Hardhome was one of her most work-intensive episodes to date, but teases “that’ll look like child’s play this season, many times over -- there's a lot of fun stuff this season.”

That’s why, when the Night King does his “come at me, bro” demonstration for Jon at Hardhome, he only needs to gesture to get his point across. “The announcement of their presence feels like the earth could crack in half, and that is their voice and their language,” Fairfield says. 。

“There are some amazing things coming, and I am planning them,” she teases. “There’s some stuff that will be embarked on this season that will become majorly in play next season. I have no idea what’s going to happen next season -- I only know this season -- so I’m starting to build a library of things that I think I’ll be using next season. I cannot tell you what it is, but when you see, you’ll know exactly what I mean.”

Could it be the White Walkers finally crossing the Wall and invading Westeros? The suspense is killing us! 。As for Season 7, Fairfield offered this parting observation: “I can’t wait for you to see... I’ve been watching the theories and it’s super exciting that no one’s figured it out yet.”
