Game Of Thrones: 10 Ways Season 5 Spoilt The Winds Of Winter

6. Daenerys Meets Tyrion

Fans of the saga in both formats have long been awaiting the meeting of two of the biggest characters: Daenerys Targaryen and Tyrion Lannister. Viewers got there before readers in this case, with the crossing of paths coming towards the end of season 5.

Tyrion presents himself to Daenerys, and after some superb back-and-forth between the pair he is accepted into her trust as an advisor. While the books have been teasing this, the show confirms it and it€™s something we should be seeing in The Winds of Winter.

Of course, the circumstances may be different, as in the books Dany has already flown off from Meereen, which doesn€™t happen in the show until after Tyrion has arrived there. While the path may differ though, it seems certain that they will still cross in the next book, and judging from what we€™ve seen so far it€™ll be well worth the wait.
