Sad, Beautiful, Tragic

Sansa glowering at little finger, making him look her in the eye and acknowledge the torture she suffered because of his hunger for power and informing him she is going to take back her home with or without him, proudly wielding the power of her name. Arya keeping her cool as they mocked her father and the trauma of his murder she was forced to witness. Yara striding forward to claim the iron throne and being clever and cunning in her unjust defeat, and theon supporting her without question. The high priestess shutting down Varys’ snide skepticism. Dany leading the Dothraki.  The Children defending Bran, sacrificing themselves by burning the evil they created and Meera dragging him to safety…All of these men, but who leads them? Who frightens them? Who controls them and inspires them? The women. The Queens.
