Hero of the Month - Edition N°1

The wicked are entitled to their own section with "the villain of the month", but the heroes are also entitled to their place. New section that I create today and I will also publish at the end of each month. One that will somehow compete with the wicked. Here is the first edition of "Hero of the month."

For this first edition, the hero of the month is: The last Targaryen, and for many, the last hope of Westeros. The mother of dragons, Daenerys Targaryen.

Daenerys Targaryen is one of the main characters of the series Game of Thrones, and I would say, one of the most important figures. She appears from the first episode of Season 1, and during the season, we follow her on her journey to form an army and return to Westeros to take the Iron Throne and avenge her missing family. Because yes, Daenerys Targaryen is the last member of the family that once ruled the Seven Kingdoms, but a rebellion destroyed her family and when she was baby, Daenerys was taken on another continent to be saved. But today, the young woman has thirst for vengeance. And the fate will help her at the end of the Season 1, because she becomes the master and the mother of three dragons.

A very interesting point with Daenerys is her evolution over the seasons. At the beginning of season 1, she appears to be a child, very shy, with a great lack of confidence and often belittled by her brother, Viserys, which manipulates her. Daenerys seems rather weak at first, and despite her young age, she was forcibly married to a Dothraki leader, Khal Drogo, who has twice her age. But with time and her new rank of khaleesi, Daenerys seems to take more confidence and can no longer be manipulated by her brother and she even dares stand up to him. But it's with the death of her brother and her husband, and the birth of her three dragons, that Daenerys really begins to change.

In the following seasons, Daenerys grows up, both physically and mentally, and she gets stronger and determined, making her own choices herself. She is no longer the little girl shy and submissive, but becomes a true queen, with a strong spirit and able to give orders and be tough when necessary. She wants to abolish slavery and give to the poor people a better life, and for that she doesn't hesitates to resort to force and her dragons to subdue and punish the tyrants. At first glance and physically, Daenerys is not very intimidating, but you should not underestimate her because the young woman can be generous and gentle, but also ruthless towards those who dare stand up to him. Daenerys also seems to have the power to resist the fire and has a very strong connection with her dragons. For me, Daenerys is not a mere human. As she said "the fire can not kill the dragon." This is a proof, she is the dragon!

With her strong mind and determination of conquering, her beauty, her story, her power and connection with the dragons, Daenerys Targaryen deserves her place among the most iconic heroes.

See you next month, for the second Edition of "The Hero of the Month"
