Fire and blood; those are the words of House Targaryen, rulers of the Iron Throne until Robert’s Rebellion ended the Mad King’s reign. Now as White Walkers march from the North and the Lannisters threaten from the South, how will Dany deal with the obstacles in her way? This is the first episode of Path to the Throne, a four-part animated series. Jason Concepcion and Mallory Rubin of Binge Mode look at Westeros’s contenders, how they got here, and how they could win the Iron Throne (if there’s still a throne to win after the upcoming Season 8).
