The Throne was like the ring from LOTR. Only those who don't seek power were immune (Ned, Robert, Bran).
The red priests, the blood magic, the lord of light, prophecies, they had some neat tricks but it was all bullshit that meant nothing.
Anyhow, between the North keeping its independence and handing Bronn the most wealthy lands (the Lannister mines ran dry as Tywin mentioned) they're setting themselves up for another terrible decade.
Also, I might've missed him but I didn't see Gendry Baratheon at the council meeting. Probably plotting somewhere to retake the throne too.
Tyrion's arc is surprisingly the saddest. He directly or indirectly kills most of his family and friends and finally he convinces Jon to kill the one person he believed in as well.
Also a big L to Grey Worm. Yes, the Northmen and probably the Knights of the Vale and Dornish were camped outside Kings Landing.
Still, he had all the lords and ladies in one place and could've easily had the Unsullied kill them all, thus 'Breaking the Wheel'.
After all it was Petyr Baelish who set all these people up to start the war and it still seems like most of them didn't realize he was the sole architect of most of the conflicts between the great houses.
