Warning: Contains many Game of Thrones spoilers.

In the world of ice and fire, nothing beats a good prophecy or two.

They literally can't get enough of it. Princes that were promised, Azor Ahai -- all that fun, mystical stuff.

Well you may not know it if you haven't read George R.R. Martin's books, but one of the biggest prophecies actually concerns Daenerys -- it was given to her by the character Quaithe, and although it's never spoken in the show it's a passage in the books that has long been pored over and analysed for clues.

And now it may be on the cusp of being fulfilled.

Following Sunday night's episode, Redditor Novastrider shared the following prophecy-related prediction:

All seems to add up, doesn't it?

And if the final bit of the prophecy is anything to go by, next week's trip to the dragonglass mine with Jon Snow could have some pretty big consequences.

What does finding "truth" mean exactly, though?

Well in Daenerys' case, maybe it means the realisation of just how important the fight against the White Walkers will be.

Or maybe -- just maybe -- it's the start of another realisation about the man she's venturing into the mine with.
