Fellow watchers on Switzerland eroticthe wall, we must now add one more belovedGame of Thrones character to the endless list of potential and devastating deaths in the upcoming final season.

And while just about every character should be on that list, the Emmy-award winning Peter Dinklage just added fuel to the fire in support of Tyrion Lannister not making the much shorter list of survivors from the battles to come.

In a recent and rare interview with Vulture to promote his starring role in the new HBO film My Dinner with Hervé, Dinklage did what his character does best: delivered some foreboding yet wise words on the bleak future that lies ahead.

"I feel very, very — I’m trying to find the right word. I think he was given a very good conclusion," he said when asked about his character's final arc. "No matter what that is — death can be a great way out."

The interviewer specifies in a side note that, "I took what Dinklage was saying here not as a suggestion that Tyrion dies, but rather his attempt to leave open the possibility that the character might meet that fate."

"No matter what that is — death can be a great way out."

And it could very well be true that Dinklage was speaking generally, or even doing what many other Game of Thronesactors have done over the seasons, which is purposefully misdirect the press in order to avoid spoiling the show.

But aside from the general occupational hazard of being a character (particularly a loved one) on Game of Thrones, there's a bevy of fan theories that can spell out Tyrion's demise.

The most likely one comes back to the prophecy given to a young Cersei, predicting that she will die by the hand of the "valonqar" (which is Valyrian for "little brother"). She's always interpreted that to be Tyrion, and it's one of the many reasons she's been hellbent on his death since the beginning.

And say what you will about Cersei, but she's very good at killing lots of people.

After the finale episode of Season 7, we also saw Tyrion fall for his sister's tricks when she promised to team up with him and fight alongside Daenerys. Tyrion's mistake in believing Cersei could give her ample opportunity to betray and kill him, the brother she not only hates but who is also the closest advisor to the queen threatening her claim to the throne.

Some speculate that the prophecy refers to Jaime Lannister and not Tyrion. That still doesn't change the perceived threat of Tyrion in Cersei's mind. Actually, it would make a perfect, twisted end to the entire Lannister line: Cersei succeeds in killing Tyrion -- and Jaime's love for his now dead brother gives him the final push needed to kill his twin/lover and fulfill the prophecy.

As far as his character arc goes, Dinklage sounded proud of Tyrion's final trajectory, saying:

He certainly developed a deeper sense of responsibility over the course of the show. He was a pretty irresponsible character to begin with. He used his position as the outcast of his family like an adolescent would. He pushed it in their [the Lannisters’] faces. The beauty of Tyrion is that he grew out of that mode in a couple of seasons and developed a strong sense of responsibility. Not morality, because he always had that, but what to do with his intelligence.

Who's to say if the legendary "Halfman" will survive. But regardless of whether or not the gods smile down on Tyrion, Dinklage's departure from the series that defined his life for nearly a decade was certainly an emotional one.

"The show was a beautiful experience — doesn’t happen all the time. But it was such a long shoot, so it’s hard to separate the TV show from my life," he said. "My last day was also beautifully bittersweet. A lot of people whom I love were on set that day. Even if they weren’t working, they came to set, which was beautiful."
