The sense of anticipation is so thick ahead of the season 3 premiere of “Game of Thrones” that you could almost cut it with the proverbial knife. To keep us going until then, HBO has just released two brand new promos.

Check them out.

Clearly, they both drum up the impending war that we’ve been preparing for in the previous two seasons, and neither wastes any time in driving the message home: the confrontation will be big and it will be bloody.

“There's a beast in every man, and it stirs when you put a sword in his hand,” Ser Jorah Mormont (Iain Glen) tells his Queen Daenerys.

She, on the other hand, is determined to show her enemies “no mercy.” Now that she has her dragons, she’s ready to claim her throne back, after so many years.

Season 3 premieres on March 31. If you’re a fan, you wouldn’t want to miss it – or the previews just released. Enjoy!
