Game of Thrones season 8: Will Daenerys still have control over Viserion, even though he's been turned into an ice dragon?

There's a reason why Daenerys is called Mother of Dragons, and the upcoming season may just see the rise of Viserion again

'Game of Thrones' has seen the death of many human and humanoid characters, but the death of non-human creatures tends to affect fans more than the death of their human counterparts, and the same holds true for Viserion.

While our primitive side may take joy in watching Viserion tear antagonists to shreds and set half of Westeros ablaze, our hearts go out to Viserion when we see him fall from the sky, having had his neck pierced by one of the Ice King's icicle spears, and plummets to his icy death at the bottom of a frozen lake.

Viserion was one of the three hatchlings who was "born" to Daenerys in the fires of a blood magic ritual, and shared a close bond with the Mother of Dragons.

Viserion is mostly cream in color and although Daenerys refers to him as her “white dragon,” his eyes and horns are gold and you can always tell the color of an unborn dragon by looking at its egg.
