5 of the Most Insane Fan Theories on the Ending of Game of Thrones

Azor Ahai Will be Reborn

The fanatical religion of the Lord of Light hinges on the return of a being known as Azor Ahai, who will be reborn and lead the fight against evil. Both Jon and Dany have been reborn in some way over the course of the series. Daenerys stepped into the funeral pyre of her late husband and emerged the Mother of Dragons, while Jon was literally brought back from the dead by Melisandre.

Either one of these characters could turn out to be this prophesied hero who will fight back the walkers and claim the throne. Azor Ahai has been mentioned constantly since the Lord of Light was first introduced way back in season 2. It makes sense that his rebirth could play a major role in the series’ end.
