7. She knows how to get along with people

Being a lady in the Thrones universe can sometimes be a tall order. It’s quite the patriarchal society in some respects, even though Queen Cersei I Lannister is the head of the pack now. Women tend to be more gracious than their male counterparts, and even though at times Arya is No One, she’s still as polite as ever.

It speaks on her character that she can go toe-to-toe with someone like Tywin Lannister. The exchanges they have border on verbal sparring, but there’s a sense of respect that lies between them. That shred of positivity is another thing that helps carry Arya through the Known World. Having the ability to relate to people and find things to discuss is very beneficial. Though Tywin may have been one of the biggest names Arya has taken on, she can have an amiable rapport with everyone she comes across. That is, if she doesn’t kill them first.

A survivor like Arya will do whatever is in their moral code in order to keep on living. She has had to face a lot of struggles in her short life, and the last thing anyone wants is more enemies. Keeping things on an even keel like Arya can do will help you manifest your goals, even if they don’t include a list of people you’re going to kill.
