** Warning Game Of Thrones spoilers ahead…
As the Game Of Thrones finale is just around the corner, fans are eager to find out who will take the Iron Throne.
And while searching for answers in all the theories swirling around the internet, there is one prophecy that everyone keeps coming back to: The Prince That Was Promised.
Throughout the fantasy saga, it has been believed that the warrior Azor Ahai would be reincarnated and take down the The Long Night by killing The Night King.
Many thought this was fulfilled after Arya Stark (played by Maisie Williams) plunged her sword into the villain’s heart when protecting her brother Bran (played by Isaac Hempstead Wright).
However, there’s another theory circulating the web, that Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) is actually the last antagonist of the show, and needs to be killed in order for the prophecy to come true.
In A Clash Of Kings, Melisandre tells Ser Davos: ‘There will come a day after a long summer when the stars bleed and the cold breath of darkness falls heavy on the world.
‘In this dread hour, a warrior shall draw from the fire a burning sword.
‘And that sword shall be Lightbringer, the Red Sword of Heroes, and he who clasps it shall be Azor Ahai come again, and the darkness shall flee before him.’
And as fans were lead to believe that the Lightbringer was Arya, many pointed out the fact her Valyrian Steel dagger was not a flaming sword.
With this in mind, viewers have been left to believe that Daenerys is the monster who needs to be taken down, after she was last seen flying over Westeros on her dragon, killing thousands of innocent bystanders in a savage massacre.
The Prince That Was Promised prophecy is now thought to see the end of the queen’s reign.
And while Arya could be the one to murder the Mother Of Dragons (after she rode off into the distance on her horse), we are kind of hoping it would be her nephew and lover Jon Snow that will do the deed.
We only have two more sleeps until we find out as Game Of Thrones season 8 finale airs Sunday on HBO, Sky Atlantic, and NOW TV.
