While we got the death of the villain I thought was going to win, and all four of her minions, an episode earlier than I thought we would, I at least can accept this, as opposed to if the previous Marvel movies were erased, if Sombra had stayed revived, or if things end badly for the Mane 6. Of course in the final I'm hoping for Jon Snow to become king, since Daenerys is looking to become a Mad Queen if she takes over. But she's still got one fierce dragon on her side, who slaughtered those innocents for her without question, they'll have to go through him too.

That's just the thing about Game of Thrones - anyone can die. The main character of Season 1 was killed before the final episode. One of the most notoriously despised villains in history was unexpectedly poisoned at the beginning of Season 4, another of the main characters and his army were massacred at the end of Season 3, and the mastermind who orchestrated all the chaos (except for two armies from beyond the Wall) to try to become king was executed at the end of the second to last season.

Though Daenerys at least had Plot Armor for Seasons 1-6 because her story took place in a completely different area and felt detached from the rest, aside from her clearly planning to take her rightful place as queen of the Seven Kingdoms. And Tyrion (Peter Dinklage), has seemed too popular for even this show to kill off, and while Season 8 has been a bloodbath for a lot of long-running characters, he is still alive.
