At last, Daenerys Stormborn’s (Emilia Clarke)ย quest to reclaim the Iron Throne for the Targaryens is fully underway on “Game of Thrones.” But there’s an important question that comes up when discussing what happens after (presumably) Daenerys wins: who will lead the realm after she dies?
She very well could die, after all. Wars are dangerous, and as a dragon rider, Daenerys is often on (or above) the front lines. The problem is, she says she can’t have children. She refers to her three dragons as her children, of course, but she maintains to her Hand of the King, Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage), and to Jon Snow (Kit Harington), that she’s incapable of having additional human kids.
