We know you’re missing Game of Thrones so much that you’re fighting the temptation to re-watch every episode starting with season 1—but HBO heard our cries and answered our prayers. We’re getting another spinoff miniseries to tide us over until season 8 premiers either next year or in 2018—and it’s totally different than The Game Revealed spinoff we filled you guys in on a few weeks ago. When you preorder the 7th season of Thrones on Blu-ray release (out on December 12th) you’ll receive the mini series bonus disk for free. Best day ever? We think yes.

The spinoff is called Conquest & Rebellion, and it will center around the entire history of Westeros, from the love affairs, the betrayals, the violent wars and the tearful deaths. The sad news is the series won’t feature your beloved Kit Harington or Emilia Clarke or the rest of the cast you know and love, but don’t worry, they’re not getting replaced. The miniseries is animated, and you can get a feel for it by watching the first chapter, titled ‘Valyria’s Last Scion: House Targaryen’ below:

In order to watch the the entire miniseries—and the narrations by the voices of Jaime Lannister, Sansa Stark, Euron Greyjoy, Varys, and Littlefinger—you’ll have to buy the season 7 set. (But let’s be honest, we were going to do that anyways.) We would definitely recommend using this miniseries to help you win GoT trivia and to school all of your friends when they ask about what happened to the rest of Ned’s family.
