The Biggest Dragon In Westeros Hasn't Appeared Yet & It May Be The Mother Of Dragons Herself

With that knowledge, let us look at the words of House Targaryen: 'Fire and Blood'. According to popular belief, 'fire' signifies 'we have dragons', and 'blood' probably signifies 'we will kill whoever crosses our path'. However, Targaryens always used dragons to kill, and there was no bloodshed - only ashes. What did 'blood' mean then? What if it referred to their inherent characteristic, more like, their DNA? What if it means they literally have fire in their blood, which means they probably have a recessive gene of sorts that transforms them into dragons under certain circumstances - possibly something like inhuman rage?

Let's also note here, how Targaryens tend to always marry within the family. What if they had this knowledge and they wanted to maintain the purity of the gene pool? That might explain all the inbreeding.

Now, let's look at hints given in the show itself. Remember the stillborn child of Daenerys and Khal Drogo? Mirri Maz Duur, the witch, claimed that the child came out looking like a monster, and that he had scales like a lizard, and was blind with bat-like wings. Why did her stillborn child have dragon-like features?

Also, here is a screenshot from the intro of season 8. We can see three small dragons, and a huge fourth dragon behind them.

What if that is Daenerys herself - the biggest dragon in Westeros? What if 'breaker of chains' is another connotation of her breaking free from her human form? What if Missandei saying 'Dracarys' to her before her death had a more literal meaning than Daenerys using her dragons to burn everything down? She is, after all, the unburnt and the actual mother of dragons. All we can think of at this juncture, is the wise Olenna Tyrell's battle advice to her: "You are a dragon, be a dragon."
