It’s impossible for anyone to accept the outcome.

Honestly, everyone knows about the Night’s Watch connection to the Wall. What’s the point any more? Answer: There is none. Which is why nobody would have accepted it.

Issue #2 – The Unsullied wouldn’t have accepted the deal.

Look at the picture above. That’s Grey Worm trying to pierce a hole into Jon Snow’s skull through sheer will. That’s hatred. Missandei is dead, people must die, and he doesn’t care how many bodies have to pile up to make him feel better.

And that’s BEFORE Jon Snow killed Daenerys. He may have loved Missandei, but he worshipped his Queen. She freed him, gave him a position of power and influence, and freed countless others. Dany was nearly god-like to him.

This is the same guy who slit Lannister bannermen throats because his Queen said so. How could he accept anything less than Jon Snow’s head on a pike?

Issue #3 – The Dothraki definitely wouldn’t have accepted the deal.

If the Unsullied would not have taken the deal, then the Dothraki would definitely have objected. Episode 7 of the final season could have easily been the seemingly replenished and multiplying Dothraki army revolting, killing everyone left in the city, and waging war on the rest of Westeros as revenge.

This is a culture that enjoys death and rape at WEDDINGS. They completely changed their culture as a result of Daenerys, and they’re just going to accept Jon Snow walking free throughout the city? Lottery odds.

To make matters worse, a group of their warriors is so neutered by the decision that they don’t even attack Jon as he walks by? BS.
