Daenerys
In this chapter Dani prepares a funeral for her lost love Drogo, the ceremony consist of a huge fire, a warriors way to pass on before she lights the fire she placed the three dragon eggs in the fire. She freed her slaves and told them the have no obligations to fulfill to her anymore. She tells them she doesn't plan to kill her self because fire can not hurt the true dragons blood. She lights it on fire and walks in to the flames. After the flames burned out, she emerges from the ashes with three baby dragons at her side.
This is a huge part of the story because although Dani lost her army she now has three dragons, just one dragon is worth an entire army by it's self. Also with the dragons comes massive respect, not to mention dragons played a huge part in her ancestors rise to power many years before her. She almost has everything she need to take her thrown back.
