Spoiler Alert. Although, if you’ve you’ve made it to Tuesday and you STILL haven’t watched “The Battle of Winterfell” yet, well, there’s not much I can do to protect you and you’re on your own. No pity from me if you read or hear something you don’t want to know.

Bella Ramsay, the 16-year-old actress who plays pint-sized powerhouse Lyannna Mormont on Game of Thrones, sat down with Entertainment Weekly to discuss… SPOILER ALERT… her character’s death Sunday night. Are you still sobbing? I just have to look at her little face and I’m a puddle.

Interestingly, the fan favorite was initially hired for one scene. But the producers love it, loved her and kept bringing her back.

Dan and David told me they originally only thought of you for only one scene?
Yeah, it was originally gonna just be one bit.

And they kept writing more for you. Fans love your character. What’s all the attention been like for you?
I didn’t think it was going to be anything. I just thought that I turned up and did it. When [the fan reaction] kicked up it was mad. I didn’t expect it.

How was shooting your fighting scenes?
My only real bit of fighting is just stabbing. Everything feels real when you’re doing it here because of the atmosphere. It was good and intense with wind and fake snow. It definitely made it easy to act.

Did director Miguel Sapochnik give you any special direction?
There was one thing he said to me that I don’t think I’ll ever forget. I wasn’t sure if she would be really scared or just a slight bit of scared. We tried it several ways. He said, “It’s like someone removed her fear gene.” And that was just … yeah, that was a really great bit of direction.

Were you disappointed Lyanna’s story didn’t go further?
Her story maybe had the potential to grow but she was going to go at some point because everyone does and this way she went was the best way she could have.

You later have to play dead…
Yeah, it didn’t bother me at all. I’ve done a little bit of dead acting before and it’s harder than it looks. You would think it would be dead easy — ah, that was a pun! — but you still have to act like you’re dead because naturally you move. You have to concentrate to be completely still.

You’ve had so many great lines on the show. Which is your favorite?
“I don’t care if he is a bastard, Ned Stark’s blood runs through his veins!” I love that.
