'Game of Thrones': Season 8 might see Arya Stark set off on her own journey to the West of Westeros

She had once indicated that after all this is over, she would want to see the lands that lie far beyond Westeros.

Maisie Williams' Arya Stark is a unique character on 'Game of Thrones', and fans are almost praying that the character does not die before the end. Fortunately, Arya has survived throughout the last seven seasons. Not only that, she has managed to seek revenge from Lord Walder Frey (David Bradley) for the Red Wedding where almost her entire family was killed off. However, the journey hasn't been a cake-walk for Arya, she went from being the daughter of the Lord of Winterfell to a blind beggar on the streets and ultimately emerged as a Nobody who could make the entire world her home. What is even more refreshing about Arya is that unlike the other female characters, she is not someone who is rooting for the Iron Throne. 

Instead, Arya is someone who has a plan, or even better she is a girl with a list. Ever since the death of her father, Ned Stark (Sean Bean) in Season 1, Arya has been counting the names of the people whom she wanted to kill. Determined about what she wanted and knowing what had to be done, Arya, at first trains herself under the most disturbing conditions, faces death several times and finally emerges as a fighter who can take down both men and women, twice her age and size. She almost completes her list, and let's just say, it was extremely satisfying to watch her kill off Lord Frey and poison his entire family since she was absolutely hapless even when Rob's (Richard Madden) wolf was killed.
