Another day, another Game of Thrones season 4 trailer.

Entitled 'Secrets', the latest brings more montages of fire, dragons and trebuchets, interspersed with snippets of dialogue from Westeros residents, pretty much all of which are declaring vengeance or retribution of some description.

There is also a glimpse of new character Oberyn Martell, with Cersei asking him: "What good is power if you cannot protect the ones you love?’

"We can avenge them," he replies.

Daenarys Targaryen features heavily, responding to the suggestion: "Sometimes it is better to answer injustice with mercy" with a resolute: "I will answer injustice with justice."

Ser Jorah later tries to reassure her: "You're Daenarys. You're the mother of dragons," but she insists: "I need to be more than that."

Elsewhere, Sansa Stark reflects on her family's murder in conversation with Tyrion, telling him: "Do you know what they did to my mother and my brother? I lie awake all night thinking about how they died."

Secrets follows the first season 4 trailer that came in January, a second that dropped in February and a set of images featuring many new characters.
