I have lost interest in Arya pretty much all together.
Jon, Sansa, and crew will get their army together.
Bran will need to find a weirwood tree to plug back into the network.
King's Landing has pretty much became a footnote in the overall story. The king isn't the king of anything anymore. Zero power. I am surprised someone hasn't challenged him for rule directly yet.
Dany will return to Mareen to get her people and meet up with the Iron Island people to head to westeros after she frees her dragons to wreck havac on folks.
Jorah will find a cure from a Rholor priest giving himself a glowing left arm and will assume the role of Victarion.
Dorne will show up and join the bad poosey gang with Dany.
Upcoming forces
Dany will have the Dathraki, Unsullied, Dorne, the Golden Company, and the Iron Islands. --(Sea Superiority)
Lanisters will have High Garden, the Tarly's, and their own forces. -- (Money)
Bolton has the Karstarks, Frey's, Umbers (maybe)
Sansa/Jon has the wildlings, Dun Dun, the rest of the northern houses including the Manderly's, the Craggonmen, Mormonts, and Mountain Clans, Tully forces, and the Arryns. and the brotherhood without banners and Arya when she comes home. --(Advantage Blackfish)
Bran has Jon's twin sister Meera and either Benjen or Coldhands. Hopefully Bran finds a few living wildlings to help as well. (Can see the past, warg people etc.)
So there is where the chess pieces sit.
