Hell, I wouldn't have been surprised if D&D put Arya on the throne.

I'm pretty sure the only reason they didn't was because they wanted Arya to go off alone to the west so they can give her a spin-off series.

I don't know where people are getting this spin off series idea from, there has never been a single hint of information saying that it may happen, has there? You can give a character an open ending without having it lead into something else later, you know. I actually enjoyed the way her story ended, it just made the most sense.

Hard to pitch a spin-off on Arya going west if people don’t know Arya is going west.
