This Leaked Game of Thrones Video May Be Your First Look At Season 6 (Spoiler Alert!)

Filming for the sixth season of the Emmy-winning Game of Thrones is well underway, and thanks to several leaks like this set of photos showing Jon Snow may still be alive, we already know what's coming. But we haven't really seen any footage from the set of the upcoming season until now. 

Spanish fan site Los Siete Reinos recently posted a covertly shot video showing what appears to be a sword fight outside the Tower of Joy. The shaky footage seems like it was taken on a cellphone, a long distance from the set at the 900-year-old Castillo de Zafra, so you can't really see much, but it clearly shows several men fighting. Check it out: 

Los Siete Reinos (Spanish for "The Seven Kingdoms)" posted still photos from the same footage. Sadly, they're also blurry, but the lack of clarity didn't stop Game of Thrones fan site Winter is Coming from speculating that the characters fighting are Ned Stark and Arthur Dayne, and the woman in white standing close to them is Ned's sister Lyanna.

Fans have speculated that Season 6 would have a scene set in the Tower of Joy. Casting calls for the series included a description of a character called Legendary Fighter, who many believe is Ser Arthur Dayne, a famed Dornish member of King Aerys's Kingsguard. The casting call said the character "carries a hugely famous sword on his back." In George R.R. Martin's A Song Of Ice And Fire books, Dayne wields a sword called Dawn, which was forged, likely from a meteorite, thousands of years ago before the events of the series.

The story goes that near the end the end of Robert's Rebellion, Eddard Stark and six of his companions rode to the castle in the Red Mountains of Dorne, where Prince Rhaegar Targaryen had taken Lyanna Stark after "abducting" her. Rhaegar had named the castle "The Tower of Joy." When Stark and company arrived, they met  three members of the Kingsguard -- Dayne, Ser Oswald Whent and Lord Commander Gerold Hightower -- guarding the entrance.

A brutal battle ensued. Even though the knights of the Kingsguard were outnumbered, they managed to kill five of Stark's party. Ned Stark later said that Dayne would have killed him, too, had his old friend Howland Reed -- father of Bran's traveling companions Jojen and Meera Reed -- not saved his life. When Stark and Reed entered the tower, they found Lyanna dying in a "bed of blood."

Here's where things get more interesting: Before Lyanna died, she made Stark promise something. He never revealed what the promise was, but fans believe that it concerned Jon Snow --, who, the theory goes, was actually the son of Rhaegar. The bed was bloody, by this thinking, because Lyanna had just given birth. She made her brother promise to claim that Jon was his own son to protect him.

We still don't know how the sequence will fit in the show. Everyone in the fight is dead by the time Season 6 begins, except Howland Reed, who hasn't made an appearance in the books, will reveal what transpired, and therefore Jon's parentage in the last two books. 

Maybe that's will happen in the TV series, too. There's a theory that says that Bran Stark will use his mysterious powers to look back in time, and the fight at the Tower of Joy will be seen through his mind's eye. The strongest evidence of this theory is Isaac Hempstead-Wright, the actor who plays Bran, was allegedly spotted at the Castillo de Zafra this week. The last time we've seen Bran, he was in a cave north of the Wall, thousands of miles from Dorne, so it's hard to imagine him travelling to the Tower of Joy in person unless he actually flies there.  

With this leaked video and the leaked photos of Kit Harington in the set, I think it's clear that Season 6 will confirm Jon Snow's true parentage, and that he's still alive.
