Game Of Thrones Theories: 15 Epic Season 7 Moments Still To Come

14. Dany's Fiery Vengeance

After starting the new season as a huge threat to the Lannisters, by the sheer weight of numbers alone (not to mention the whole dragon thing), Dany has suffered a number of catastrophic - frankly embarrassing - set-backs that have decimated her allies and left her with her own private Dothraki horde and three dragons. That's not a poor position to be in, really, but Dany is definitely a wounded animal waiting to strike back.

The Unsullied's captivity at Casterly Rock was the final straw, and it seems that the Queen Of Dragons is going to start living up to her title - as well as taking Olenna Tyrell's advice to "be a dragon" to heart. No more a woman of inaction, she's going to strike back at the Lannisters as Jaime leads his army back to King's Landing, and the consequences are going to be dire to not only the Lannisters, but also the Tarlys who betrayed Olenna.

Perhaps she will then turn her attention to rescuing what remains of the Unsullied at Casterly Rock, but with suggestions that she will limp out of the battle with Jaime (despite victory), she may not get the chance.
