This means that in Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5, we are going to see the wrath of Daenerys. Given that she has lost two of her oldest aides in Ser Jorah and Missandei, as well as two dragons (one that fell to the Night King and another that was killed by Euron), she is going to show no mercy to anyone anymore and is going to burn down Kings Landing! A lot of characters are expected to die in this episode and the dragon queen is expected to be very, very angry.
