The Witches Prophecy of When Danarys Will Again Have Children

Spoilers for Game of Thrones season 7 episode half-dozen follow.

Ever since flavor 1, when Daenerys sacrificed her unborn child in a ritual to endeavour and salvage Khal Drogo's life, we've known that she has been unable to behave children. Every bit she keeps informing us throughout season 7, her dragons are the only children she volition ever take. Simply are they?

Fans on Reddit have dug upwards a prophecy from the beginning flavor, which the vengeful maegi Mirri Maz Duur told Daenerys after she'd cunningly turned Drogo into a vegetable. Dany asked her when Drogo would become better, and Duur said: "When the sun rises in the west and sets in the due east. When the seas go dry and mountains accident in the wind like leaves. When your womb quickens again, and yous bear a living kid. Then he will return, and not before."

We know that Drogo tin't physically return at this signal – in desperation Dany smothered his vegetative body, then burnt him to a crisp in a funeral pyre – just fans are speculating that the prophecy is really referring to a new Drogo, Daenerys' firstborn child, considering they believe Daenerys' is now able to take children once more. And this is because of something else Duur told Dany: "Only death tin can pay for life". Let's get through the prophecy's requirements one by one to see how it works.

1. When the sun rises in the west and sets in the e

Most fans have this to refer to Quentyn Martell, a book-merely grapheme who left his homeland of Dorne (in the due west) and headed to Meereen (in the east) to offering his hand in marriage to Daenerys. When she left the city, he later died trying to steal one of her dragons which had been chained up in one of Meereen'southward pyramids.

The Martell sigil is a sun, and so if we take Quentyn as this sun, rising (or growing up) in the due west and setting (dying) in the east, this function has been satisfied already.

2. When the seas get dry

In the final chapter ofA Dance with Dragons, the almost recent book in the serial past George R.R. Martin, Daenerys is in a place called the Dothraki Sea and notices: "The grass was paler than she remembered, a wan and sickly green on the verge of going yellowish. After that would come brown. The grass was dying." Near fans agree this element of the prophecy is satisfied.

3. When mountains blow in the wind like leaves

This ane is a bespeak of contention. Some reckon it's something to do with The Mountain finally meeting his end (having been resurrected by Cersei).

Others retrieve it be to do with the pyramids of Meereen – in the books, Daenerys' dragons completely destroyed them when they escaped captivity.

Alternatively, it could refer to the size of Daenerys' enormous dragons. They fly about in the wind… a bit like leaves. It's hard to say exactly what it could refer to, only it seems like here that where another few words from Mirri Maz Duur become important.

How Viserion'south decease could change Dany'south life

As well as the to a higher place prophecy, Mirri Maz Duur told Daenerys "Only expiry tin pay for life."

One of Dany'due south dragons, Viserion, who was killed in episode six of season vii, is equally big a sacrifice as any. Fans remember this is the final slice fulfilling Mirri Maz Duur's prophecy that Daenerys volition be able to excogitate again, somewhen giving birth to a kid she's going to phone call Drogo. Doing so would solve Tyrion's concerns nearly the succession, which were emphasised in episode 7.

What practise yous reckon? Good theory? Permit us know what yous think in the comments.
