We told you just the other day that Game Of Thrones‘ third season is just around the corner. HBO have just released a new teaser trailer titled Chaos, which shows the principal characters like Arya Stark, Cersei Lannister and others with a foreboding voiceover that gives an indication of that’s to come.

Here’s the transcript:

Though to be honest, all this talk of climbing just makes us think of Miley Cyrus.
