The final episode of Game Of Thrones is all set to air in sometime and while fans are gearing up to finish their 8-year journey with the show, the actors too are finding words to bid adieu to their characters. After 8 seasons, the show will finally end with the answer of who gets to sit on the Iron throne and from Season one, it has been a journey of sorts, we bet you feel like an eager Westerosi waiting to find out who your new ruler will be. While the penultimate episode saw some of the major character deaths, we already said our goodbyes to actors such as Conleth Hill, Lena Headey, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and so on.

In the final episode, some of the main surviving characters include, Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner), Jon Snow (Kit Harrington), Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), Arya Stark (Maisie Williams), Gendry Baratheon (Raleigh Ritchie), Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) and Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead Wright). Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 6 Gets Leaked Online and Why We Aren’t Surprised!

Finding the words to write this post has left me overwhelmed with how much I want to say but how small words feel in comparison to what this show and Dany have meant to me. The mother of dragons chapter has taken up the whole of my adult life. This woman has taken up the whole of my heart. I’ve sweated in the blaze of dragon fire, shed many tears at those who left our family early, and wrung my brain dry trying to do Khaleesi and the masterful words, actions (and names) I was given, justice. Game of Thrones has shaped me as a woman, as an actor and as a human being. I just wish my darling dad was here now to see how far we’ve flown. But to you, dear kind magical fans, I owe you so much thanks, for your steady gaze at what we’ve made and what I’ve done with a character that was already in the hearts of many before I slipped on the platinum wig of dreams. Without you there is no us. And now our watch has ended. @gameofthrones @hbo #love #motherofdragonsoverandout
