[SPOILERS] If HBO ever made a Game of Thrones sequel, this is how I'd continue the story
I've been thinking about this for a while. If HBO ever decided to make a true sequel to Game of Thrones, this is the story I'd want to see.
The biggest mystery for me has always been Drogon flying away with Daenerys' body. Where did he take her? I don't think that scene was meaningless. My theory is that she was taken somewhere she could be brought back to life. Jon Snow was resurrected after his death, so why couldn't Daenerys be? I've always seen Jon and Dany as two people whose fates were deeply connected, almost like soulmates. If Jon was given a second chance, I don't see why she couldn't receive one too.
Arya's ending is another storyline with endless potential. She sailed west of Westeros to see what no one had ever seen before. I don't think she'd just find empty ocean. I think she'd discover entirely new civilizations, kingdoms, maybe even another Wall protecting lands and people completely unknown to the rest of the world. There's no way the world ends where the maps stop.
As for Jon, I actually think being sent beyond the Wall was the best ending he could've gotten. Away from politics, betrayal, and endless wars, I can imagine him finally finding peace. I think he'd fall in love with a wildling woman, build a family, and become a leader who helps create a better future for the Free Folk. With the White Walkers gone, the lands beyond the Wall would finally be safe to explore, settle, and rebuild.
And then there's Daenerys. I don't think her story should end with a knife in the throne room. If she came back, I believe she'd return wiser, having learned from her mistakes instead of repeating them. She'd reclaim the Iron Throne not through fear alone, but as the queen she was always meant to become. She's the last Targaryen, and I still believe she was the promised queen whose story deserved a better ending.
Finally, Bran. I know he's king at the end of the series, but because he's the Three-Eyed Raven, I think he'd realize that Daenerys returning is what the realm truly needs. Instead of standing against her, I'd love to see him become her Hand, using his knowledge and visions to guide her toward making better choices than she did before.
I'd watch this sequel in a heartbeat.
