Published 07/15/2024, 2:42 AM EDT

Shows that have managed to have the same impact as House of the Dragon are few and far between. From keeping the magic of the original source alive to carving a legacy arguably greater than its predecessor Game of Thrones, the show has rightfully gained the title of generational television. In order to claim this throne, however, House of the Dragon has opted for some drastic measures ranging from separating loved ones to killing off some of the most loved characters.

While fans are used to their favorite series' opting to kill a fan-favorite character such as Eddie Munson in Stranger Things, House of the Dragon is no ordinary series and neither were the deaths fans witnessed in Season 2 mere character deaths. With two beloved characters already down and a few more on the list according to fan suspicions, there is one character whose safety they are desperately vouching for and it is none other than the dear old Ghost, Jon Snow's direwolf.

Although it may seem excessive to some, the direwolf deserves every bit of the love and care that it is being showered. One of the six direwolf pups found by the Stark children, Ghost has earned his place through his loyalty, and as fans fight for his safety, it has become the loudest chant.

While others waxed poetic about how loyal the dog has been to Jon Snow, a fan went the extra mile to write they want the last shot of the season to be him, all hunky dory.
