It's been a battle in the making for a long time, and now, the infamous "Battle of the Bast*rds" between Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) will take place on Game of Thrones.

Since reuniting with Sansa (Sophie Turner), a revived Jon and Davos (Liam Cunningham) have been working to build an army to take Winterfell back for the Starks for the first time it was taken first by Theon (Alfie Allen), and then the Boltons after the Red Wedding. The battle was made even more personal for them since Ramsay warned them he had Rickon (Art Parkinson), and if he did not have Sansa returned to him, he would kill their younger brother.

Now, even with an army that numbers significantly fewer than Ramsay's, Jon is ready to start the war, even though Sansa is warning him that they can't go into it without more men.

"Battles have been won against great lords," Jon argues in a preview clip for the Sunday, June 19 episode. "I fought beyond the wall against worse than Ramsay Bolton."

"You don't know him," Sansa reminds him.

However, with Winter arriving, the battle needs to happen, or the siblings could risk not only losing their youngest brother at the hands of the sadistic Ramsay, but also give him the advantage of more time to attack them, or gain more allies against them.

But as the battle is set to begin, Jon will make sure Davos knows the one thing he wants to have happen if they can't succeed and win. Though he appreciated that Davos and Melisandre (Carice Van Houten) brought him back after he was stabbed to death by his fellow brothers of the Night's Watch, he doesn't want to be brought back a second time, and this time, if he dies, he wants to remain that way.

"If I fall, don't bring me back," he says in the clip.

Game of Thrones airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO.
