Emilia Clarke Says Goodbye To Game Of Thrones In A Heartfelt Post

Winter is here, guys.
|

The Breaker of Chains has broken our hearts.

The eighth and final season of “Game of Thrones ” seems eons away (2019), but it appears that some cast members have already finished filming the last six episodes of the popular HBO fantasy series.

Case in point, Emilia Clarke , who plays Daenerys “Ben D. Knee ” Targaryen, decided to bestow winter upon fans by posting a bittersweet farewell to the series on Instagram on Sunday.

“Hopped on a boat to an island to say goodbye to the land that has been my home away from home for almost a decade,” Clarke captioned a photo of her lying in a field of flowers. “It’s been a trip @gameofthrones thank you for the life I never dreamed I’d be able to live and the family I’ll never stop missing #lastseasonitis.” 

Though Clarke does not name the island, she also posted a photo of her and fellow cast members Conleth Hill (Lord Varys), John Bradley (Samwell Tarly) and the show’s co-creator D.B. Weiss at a Liam Gallagher show in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on the same day — a pretty good indication that she was referring to the Emerald Isle, a shooting location for the show.

Many of Clarke’s co-stars were quick to comment on the Mother of Dragon’s heartfelt goodbye.

“It’s been the best. Ever. And you’ve been incredible,” wrote Bradley.

“Sweet words. Love you and HOLY balls. #itistheend,” wrote Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister).

Jason Momoa, who played the late Khal Drogo, also left a comment, saying he was “proud” of Clarke.

As for the final season, Clarke hasn’t exactly been tight-lipped , especially regarding her character’s final moments.

“It fucked me up,” the 31-year-old actress told Vanity Fair . “Knowing that is going to be a lasting flavor in someone’s mouth of what Daenerys is ...”

She added, “I’m doing all this weird shit. You’ll know what I mean when you see it.”

Thanks for that teaser, Emilia.
