She resolved to help in the fight against the army of the dead. She didn't blame anyone else for Viserion's death. She seemed far less interested in pressuring him to bend the knee. That being said, Dany displayed some good leadership traits throughout the episode, epecially in her tender, post-crisis moment with Jon Snow. She may scorn the heroic men in her life, but Tyrion was right in saying that this Queen has an impulsive side to her leadership style that could bring about major problems, too. ![]() Dany rescued the stranded group of important main characters - surprise, surprise - but she lost Viserion, who was turned into an ice dragon.
