Heading into the explosive, six-episode final season of HBO’s hit fantasy drama Game Of Thrones, it’d be wise to assume that its essentially open season on all of the main characters and that any single one of them could get axed at any moment. You know, typical Game Of Thrones stuff.
Except for Arya. Of all the remaining players left in Game Of Thrones, if anyone deserves the benefit of the doubt to come out of the eighth and final season alive, its Arya Stark.
One of the most skilled and secretive assassins in the land, Arya has been presumed dead for most of the show’s run, and during that time, she has acquired a particular set of skills (Liam Neeson voice) that make her one of — if not the — most dangerous people in Westeros — kid, adult, male, female or otherwise.
So, long story short, because of all that murderous cunning and badassness that she’s acquired over the years, we’re feeling pretty confident that Arya is going to come out of this last season alright, especially since she seems none-to-bothered about the presence of dragons in her life.

However, for longtime Game Of Thrones fans, Arya’s partiality towards dragons shouldn’t come as a surprise, as she’s long shown an interest in the mythical beasts.
Back in season two, when she was working as a servant to Tywinn Lannister, Arya raved and gushed about Visenya Tagaryen, calling her a “great warrior.”
