When Daenerys finally left Meereen for Westeros, it was a triumphant moment. The culmination of her entire story up to that point, she was finally ready to go home and become Queen (er, about that...).

Departing Meereen, however, meant making some sacrifices, and none more so than dear Daario Naharis, whom she had to leave behind because a new Queen couldn't arrive with a lover when she'd potentially need a husband.

So it was that Daario stayed behind to rule over Meereen, but how did that go? Was Daario able to keep a steady watch over the Bay of Dragons, ensuring slavery didn't return? Did all hell break loose when Dany and her dragons were gone? Did Daario eventually think 'f**k this' and go back to being a sellsword?
