Magic has always been one of the more mysterious forces on "Game of Thrones," especially when it comes to religious rituals. Take Beric Dondarrion, for example. We first saw Beric set his sword aflame on season three, right before he fought Sandor Clegane in a trial by combat.
On that episode, Beric cut his hand and the blood seemed to light the sword. But now Beric's blade seems to catch fire of its own accord. What gives?
"He says two words in Valyrian which means 'god's light,'" actor Richard Dormer (who plays Beric) told INSIDER at the red carpet premiere for season eight. "And that makes it poof."
