I'm still curious as to whether Dany has superpowers. They never really extrapolated the whole stood in fire overnight thing.

In the first episode, when she gets into the hot bath while the servant girl warns her not to.
When Drogo pours molten gold over Viserys head, she comments that he is no dragon.
In another episode she picks up something that is hot (was it the dragon eggs? can't recall) and it doesn't burn her, but burns her slave's hands.
So that is a pretty good indication that fire can't harm her and she can't be burned.

She has stated many times that she has the blood of dragons flowing through her, dragons are fire made flesh, and fire cannot harm her...I think she's cool with that.

Also, since everything means something on this show, when Tywin was telling Arya about his castle being vulnerable to dragons... I'm assuming that was more than just a history lesson but foreshadowing, right? Also, how many seasons do we have to endure baby dragons before we can see some real live action Skyrim?

Did Tywin talk about his castle or the castle they are currently in that was ruined centuries ago by dragons?
