'Game of Thrones': Season 1 perhaps hinted to what might happen with Tyrion and Varys in Season 8

The Hand of the King is an unfortunate post to be in, and anyone who has tried to be there has ended up dead.

'Game of Thrones' Season 8 is less than a month away and we couldn't be more relieved than seeing almost all of our favorite characters make it to the North alive. We are especially glad to see the most popular and favorite Queen (or better say Khaleesi) Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) is safe in the hands of Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) and Lord Varys (Conleth Hill), who have been helping her with war strategies and guiding her to become a better ruler than the previous ones. However, with the trailer dropping earlier this month our hopes for a Dragon ruled Westeros began to shatter, and even more, we now fear for the lives of both Tyrion and Varys.
