Prophecies? What Prophecies?

Published May 22, 2019 · Updated July 6, 2022

Hey Guys!

I Love the show and will definitely miss listening to your GOT break down on my commutes. I am a mother of 2 dragons that do not sleep through the night, so bear with my delirious rant as I try to hash out my thoughts and questions around the series finale.

1. Did any of these prophecies come to pass?
The dragon has three heads
The prince that was promised

2. What was the point of Daenerys being Unburnt? Why was Jon not Unburnt if he is a Targaryen as well?

3. What”s Daario up to? What is going on In Essos?

4. What was the white horse that Arya rode off on really about?

5. Why is there still a night”s watch when the Wildlings are allies and the Night King is no more?

6. Why was the Dothraki not represented by a blood rider – like Grey Worm is to the unsullied?

7. What is the point of Jon”s parentage? Dany is dead, he is the last Targaryen so what, now that great house is gone? And Drogon is MIA too?

8. Why do Jon and Dany discuss her fertility in a way that would foreshadow her becoming pregnant??

I understand why Dany”s character arc went the way it did and I even expected her to die, but I am surprisingly sad about it. I would have liked to see her end up back in Essos. She reflects on her actions, seeing that she became a ruler she swore she would not, and blames the people of Westeros for shaping her actions. This drives her back to Essos -where the Targaryens originated- and where she truly feels loved and at home. She tells the Unsullied and Dothraki they are free and can follow her if they chose, and that they will be a part of the battle to continue to break chains, keep the peace, etc. Back in Essos, she reunites with Daario bc he truly loves her and she chooses not to care about his lack of titles. Maybe she has Jon”s baby maybe not. I think I am having a hard time seeing her character achieve so much and grow so strong only to turn into a Hitler and be executed before she had a chance to go back to her true self. I know in reality power corrupts but this is a fantasy story….

Thanks again Guys
Keep doing what you”re doing,
Sleep deprived Jo
