Game of Thrones is an HBO fantasy drama television series developed by David Benioff and D. B. Weiss. It is based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire trilogy, the first of which is A Game of Thrones. The show was shot in the United Kingdom, Canada, Croatia, Iceland, Malta, Morocco, and Spain. It started on HBO in the United States on April 17, 2011, and concluded on May 19, 2019, with 73 episodes shown across eight seasons.

Game of Thrones includes a big ensemble cast and covers various story arcs throughout the program, which is set on the mythical continents of Westeros and Essos.

Why can’t Daenerys Targaryen have children anymore in ‘Game of Thrones’?

Daenerys believes she is barren because of the prophecy. That is why she considers her dragons to be her children, and why Viserion’s death has such an impact on her. She will never give birth again, as far as she knows, and her only family is a trio of dragons that escaped the fire with her.

To recap, Jon eventually accepts Daenerys as his queen, and the two exchange serious looks before she urges that he rest after nearly freezing to death. Between their budding romance and Tyrion questioning the khaleesi about who will be next in line for the throne if she dies, “Beyond the Wall” was determined to remind viewers that Daenerys cannot have children — at least not human ones. The rationale for this dates back to season one.
