Monday is here and so is another episode of Game of Thrones, Season 8! After a dramatic end to the second episode of Game of Thrones, which aired today on Hotstar, the wait until next Monday for yet another nail-biting episode hopefully does not kill us. So, in order to help you tide over, we decided to give you this. Let's take a look back over the years and see how much has (one of our favourite characters on the show) Arya Stark evolved both physically (some of them have had pretty dramatic transformations!) and as a person. A tomboy to an assassin, Arya has had a dramatic journey, which had its tragic moments. Game of Thrones, episode 2 of season 8, Arya losing her virginity to  Gendry also marks an important chapter in her journey. But while that's all the internet could talk about, Arya's life was more than just that. It's a inspirational journey from girlhood to womanhood that's worth looking back at.
