“Without her dragons Dany would have died early on in the books” or “Without her dragons Dany is nothing”

okay… without his direwolf, Bran would have died in the very first book

without his direwolf, Jon would have been murdered by an ice zombie in the very first book and by qhorin halfhand in the second book 

robb’s direwolf sensed danger the night he was murdered

but i don’t see anyone playing down any of their achievements bc they had a mythical beast saving their ass when they needed it most
