- 17. Dany is a captive of the Dothraki
In a case of deja vu, both Dany (Emilia Clarke) and the audience are headed back to the Dothraki, the show’s Mongol analogue who last mattered when she was married to Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa) in Season 1. Khaleesi, as Dany is, are by Dothraki tradition supposed to return to the capital Vaes Dothrak and serve as a Khaleen, more-or-less a den mother.
My guess is Dany will not abide by convention and by defying it, somehow bring thousands of the horselords to her cause of retaking Westeros because, well, fuck you, she’s the Queen of Dragons, that’s why. Combine that strength with her power in Slaver’s Bay (provided Tyrion can hold that power) and she would finally be ready to return home to Westeros.
