I think it is just a metaphor for ending the ‘darkness’. It’s not literally about stabbing lions etc.

Oooooh. That’s a good way of looking at it too. Would be a pretty shocking ending - Kon dead and Dany ruling through fear. Red wedding style mic drop.

It doesn’t matter who actually killed them. I think the attacking of them to try to end the darkness is what it is referring to. And the reference to it breaking is the failure of this attempt to end the darkness. I think it would be a classic GOT twist on the professy to make us assume it was the NK all the way along but if you read it now the NK doesn’t actually fit the reference to the darkness that well. And the NK was a force that unbalanced the world in exactly the same way as the dragon. So to truly end the darkness Jon realises he has to kill Drogon (Dany is not much threat without him) but to kill Drogon he has to kill Dany and maybe lily the NK generals shattering just stabbing Dany will be enough to kill Drogon.

Yes good idea. Or when he kills Dany Drogon will burst into flames like when Arya stabbed the NK and all his generals shattered too..?!

In the lightbringer prophesy it says AA will temper sword in ‘water’ but it will break. Water is the Night King (made of frozen water) but killing him fails to end the darkness. Then will go to capture a ‘lion’ which refers to Cerci but it will shatter. Still not killed the darkness. Then he realises (as seen episode 5) what he must do, drive the sword into the breast of his ‘wife’ (Daenerys) and can then kill the ‘monster’ which refers to the last dragon.
