The penultimate episode of Game of Thrones season 8 has finally premiered. Twitter has erupted with reactions of Daenerys Targaryen’s dastardly attack on King’s Landing. The episode, titled ‘The Bell’ rang…well…a bell with Game of Thrones fans that perhaps the apple does not fall far from the tree_._ As she rode on her last surviving dragon, Drogon, she annihilated the entire Iron Fleet.

Despite King’s Landing surrendering to Daenerys, signified by the ringing bells, the Mother of Dragons unleashed dragonfire on King’s Landing and burnt it to the ground, killing millions of civilians.

Dany’s act, Twitterati pointed out, has effectively turned her into the Mad Queen, the daughter of Aerys II Targaryen aka the Mad King, who spoke off razing all of King’s Landing before he was killed by Jaime ‘Kingslater’ Lannister.
