Game Of Thrones: 10 Things Daenerys Targaryen Wants You To Forget

8. Harpy Slaughters

It all gets a little more bloody from here on in. Slaughters aplenty, and the death is all on Dany. She swept into Meereen and took away the fighting pits. It's like Kim Jong & Co. jetting into the UK and closing down our football stadiums, or trekking to the States and closing down their 8 trillion McDonalds'. You simply can't dramatically alter a nation's way of life and expect everybody to accept it. The Sons Of The Harpy took the fight to Daenerys by butchering her Unsullied and while you can't condone their actions in the slightest, if Dany had just accepted that there are some unbreakable traditions in her new city, the mess wouldn't have escalated in quite the same way.
