This concludes the first part of Game of Thrones‘ denouement – the end of Daenerys Targaryen. How can she build a better world if she started by blowing up another one? As Dany admires the Iron Throne that now belongs to her, Jon tells her she should not have destroyed the city. Jon goes to meet Dany in the Throne Room (which is now missing a ceiling thanks to Drogon’s conflagrations). Just one scene later, however, it’s clear that Tyrion’s words did have some impact.

Jon carefully considers Tyrion’s words and then gravely…does nothing. “If you believed that, truly believed that – wouldn’t you kill whoever stood between you and paradise?” “She believes her destiny is to build a better world,” Tyrion tells him. Tyrion points out that the Dragon Queen’s promise to “break the wheel” of the world is now something to be feared, rather than encouraged. Tyrion wants to make it very clear to Jon that Dany is dangerous, as if the city of a half million people she destroyed wasn’t evidence enough. The two central characters share a scene that seemingly takes up 45% of the entire episode’s running time but that’s understandable as there is a lot of ground to cover. Daenerys has just concluded a speech to her Dothraki and Unsullied about how they will build a new world together and is not too pleased that her Hand seems to want no part of that world.ĭany imprisons Tyrion and Jon comes to meet him. Tyrion returns to the above-ground world where he tenders his resignation as Hand of the King in a rather dramatic fashion. Tyrion makes a detour to the secret passageway of the cities where he sees with his own eyes that Dany’s rage has killed both Jaime and Cersei. Before Daenerys’s death, the remaining characters in King’s Landing are forced to confront the realities of the destruction they’ve just witnessed from their beloved Dragon Queen.ĭavos, Tyrion, and Jon walk among the wreckage and all the bodies strewn about the streets. There is BD (Before Daenerys’s Death) and AD (After Daenerys’s Death). Just like the timeline on Game of Thrones is split into BC (Before Aegon’s Conquest) and AC (After Aegon’s Conquest), this episode is split up into two very different portions. They do so in Game of Thrones Season 8, Episode 6 “The Iron Throne.” Here is how they went about it. Weiss, the two dudes contractually obliged by WarnerMedia to end the story…to finally end the damn thing. Therefore it fell to David Benioff and D.B.

It’s so impossible to end, in fact, that the man who created Westeros and knows the actual ending of the story has been trying to write the penultimate book in that story for eight full years now. Game of Thrones is seemingly impossible to end.
