![]() ![]() Why Did Drogon Burn the Iron Throne?Īlong with wondering where Drogon flew with Daenerys's body, fans also couldn't figure out why he torched the Iron Throne. And, as we all know, a Red Priestess like Melisandre from Asshai has the ability to resurrect a person. One Reddit fan theory suggested that Drogon is taking Daenerys to Asshai, where she will be resurrected and become the Undead Dragon Queen of the Shadowlands. And I think that if you can think of it as there's still a dragon out there that's fueled by anger and fueled by grief and stills got a sense of bitterness then nobody is going to quite sleep easy in their beds. As John Bradley, who plays Sam on the show, told me after the episode, that can't mean anything good: is probably going to get up to his adventures presumably he's still fueled by grief and the bitterness of that. ![]() ![]() Near the end of the episode Samwell Tarly points out that Drogon was last seen flying east. One of the major questions that lingered after the Game of Thrones Season Eight finale was about where Drogon flew with Daenerys' body after she was killed by Jon. And since the Game of Thrones Season Eight finale on May 19, 2019, fans have come up with some pretty compelling theories that answer some of those lingering questions. Nor has it calmed the excitable fans who have spent the last months sifting through the destruction of Westeros for what really happened to these beloved characters. Yet, time has not quelled the anger for that disappointing series finale. “There may be someone still in charge of the Seven Kingdoms when Game of Thrones ends, but sitting on the Iron Throne? It feels increasingly unlikely.It was one year ago that millions of fans watched Arya sail off into the unknown, Jon ride into the north, and Bran take his place on the Iron Throne. “More and more, the throne has become a symbol for the worst aspects of humanity, a metallic reminder of how absolute power corrupts absolutely,” says the magazine. The Hollywood Reporter thinks the “likeliest prediction on the board” is that the throne is disassembled and the equivalent of a “President of the United Kingdoms of Westeros” is established. Nerdist suggests it could be Arya who becomes the one to save the world from the darkness of both ice (the White Walkers) and fire (the Dragon Queen). The prophecy says the Prince, or Princess, who was Promised will be born “amidst smoke and salt” and that “his is the song of ice and fire”. Some fans have got another take on the Azor Ahai theory after watching the latest episodes. Sansa is certainly prepared to stand up to Daenerys but seems unlikely to make a move for the throne with Jon still alive. Martin has cited the War of the Roses as an inspiration, so a Tudor-inspired finale is possible. YouTube fan channels In Deep Geek (in 2017) and GoT Academy (in 2015) have both predicted that Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) will come out on top in the end, highlighting the many similarities between her and fellow redhead Queen Elizabeth I. Tywin suggests he believes Tyrion was the result of an affair, telling him in his final breath: “You’re no son of mine.” He has also been able to approach Daenerys’s dragons in the past. The theory that Tyrion might really be a Targaryen “hinges on a key detail” that his late father Tywin (Charles Dance) always hated his son, says Inverse. ![]() Your initial reaction to this theory is “probably to recoil and say, ‘No way!’” says Yahoo! But “wouldn’t it explain so much? Wouldn’t it create a wonderful narrative parallel between Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) and Jon Snow? One is a bastard who doesn’t realise he’s actually royalty and the other is royalty who doesn’t realise he’s actually a bastard,” the site suggests. Many fans are convinced he is the “Prince who was Promised”, a reincarnation of the legendary Azor Ahai, who drove a sword into his wife to protect the world from “darkness”. In light of Jon’s right to the throne and Daenerys slaughtering a city of innocent people, it seems almost inevitable that Jon will be pushed to overthrow her in the finale. News that Jon Snow (Kit Harington) is Daenerys’s nephew threw a spanner in the works for Westeros’s power couple. So what will happen next? Here are some of the most popular predictions. The episode ended with Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) surviving the bloodbath and riding a white horse out of the capital’s ashes. In the penultimate instalment Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) burned King’s Landing to the ground, confirming the long-held theory that she would follow her father’s path and become the Mad Queen.Ĭersei Lannister (Lena Headey) reunited with her brother and lover Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) before the tunnels of the Red Keep caved in on them.
