Daenerys Targaryen: The Theory of Everything

This video covers Dany's entire storyline in ASOIAF, predicts her future in The Winds of Winter, and contrasts book Dany to show Dany from Game of Thrones. Will Daenerys go mad in the books? When will she go home to Westeros in TWOW? How have Viserys Targaryen, Quaithe, Mirri Maz Duur, and more influenced her journey? How does Dany connect to the Targaryen prophecy of the Prince that was Promised, the same prophecy that likely drove Rhaegar's story, stemming from Aegon the Conqueror himself? Daenerys is centuries in the making, the fulfillment of a dragon dream haunting the Targaryen lineage, but she won't do it alone... How can Jon Snow help Daenerys save the world?
