What are the problems with many of the story fixes
- Game of Thrones was inspired by the past.
- It was meant to take a Tolkien like story and subversion
- Execution caused most of the problems, not what happened.
Daenerys should be queen and/or
Jon Snow should be King
- No just know
John Snow should have killed the Night King
- Not as such
Kings Landing should not have burned
- Who could be king
- Gendry
- Ellaria Sand
- Sansa Stark (The starks are the White Roses)
Bran should not be King and John Snow should have at least hugged Ghost
- Okay, cannot argue that
Lessons for storytellers
- Beware of breaking tropes
- People seem to want Disney Fantasy
  - A little messy and scary at the beginning and tied up in a neat bow at the end
- Monday Morning Quarterbacks will appear either way if your story becomes popular
- Use character development not shock to change the course of a narrative.
