Okay, so we know Game of Thrones' The Night King wants nothing more than to kill dragons, be evil, and take over Westeros—but we still don't know what his ultimate goal is. But one Reddit theorist (who else?) has a pretty compelling theory about what this blue-eyed villain wants—and how it ties into the whole Bran Is the Night King drama.
The theory claims that The Night King is heading to God's Eye—the massive lake that holds The Isle of Faces. Why?
