‘Winds of Winter’ Spoilers: Who is the Dragon’s Second Head if Jon Snow is Really Dead?

"Game of Thrones" Season 5 left everyone in a state of shock following the death of one of the show's key characters, Jon Snow. Ned Stark's bastard son was commonly believed to be one of the dragon's heads next to Daenerys Targaryen. Now that Kit Harington announced that he will no longer return to the HBO series, this leaves many fans wondering: "Who is the dragon's second head?"

"Game of Thrones" Season 5 recently aired one of the most shocking scenes on TV when one of its key characters, Jon Snow, was stabbed to death by his fellow men of the Night's Watch. While this particular scene is also the ending of George R.R. Martin's latest book, "A Dance with Dragons," many fans are wondering if Jon Snow will live on or die in the next season.

While actor Kit Harington has already confirmed that he is no longer returning to the HBO series, fans continue to surmise that Jon Snow will be back one way or another. This is the reason for the growing anticipation for George R.R. Martin's sixth book, "The Winds of Winter" in the series, "A Song of Ice and Fire."

"The Winds of Winter" could offer possible explanations and answers to the cliffhanger in both book and series, including Jon Snow's uncertain future. iDigitalTimes cited that there is still the possibility that Jon Snow could return in "Game of Thrones" if Melisandre brings him back to life after realizing that he is the real heir to the Iron Throne.

If Jon Snow really does not return in either "Game of Thrones" or "Winds of Winter," then this continues to leave fans wondering about the identity of the remaining two dragonheads.

An ongoing discussion on the identity of the three dragonheads continues on Westeros. A user named Sellsword cited several characters who could possibly be the real dragon riders.

The user cited on the possibility of Aegon, Tyron, Arianne, and Stannis as the second and third dragonheads. All of these, however, will remain as speculations and fans will need to wait for the release of "The Winds of Winter" and "Game of Thrones" in 2016 to know the answers to their questions.
