Abstract
This study is focused on the story of Daenerys Targaryen as one of the main characters in the novel A Game of Thrones. The novel is a colossal story created by George R.R. Martin, who introduces many characters in his books. Despite the number of characters, the main focus of the storyline is on Daenerys Targaryen. In this case, the researcher pursues the character's journey from a clueless highborn princess to becoming a leader of a tribe. Practically, the writer expects that this study would give insight into becoming a strong independent woman. Besides, it shows Daenerys’ struggle for being forced to marry by her brother and does not dare to fight until she becomes a leader and is recognized by her people. Daenerys’ story is relatable to most human problems in real life, so it could encourage the readers to choose a positive way to face their problem and have the courage to take action.
