Another possibility (and a more entertaining one) would be Jon proving he is the son of "The prince of Dragons"  by sheer accident while having to deal with the Dragons first hand.  Can you imagine the "OH S%&T" expression if he were to come face to face with one...or all three?   LOL

I see that happening with Jon too. 

I picture a scene where two armies face each other, the tiny Army of the North and Dany's conglomeration of every other human army on the planet. Before the battle, the leaders of each group go out to meet each other a la Jon and Ramsey. Jon does his "Why don't we meet in single combat?" spiel to Dany, who is conveniently sitting atop Drogon. Dany says, "Okay!", and Drogon immediately engulfs Jon (and whoever else was fool enough to ride out with him) in flames. Jon says, "Oh snap!!!", but does a Dany and doesn't burn. Dany realizes that Jon is Targareon and probably a close relative. She dismounts the dragon, jumps atop Jon and they make wild, passionate, incestuous Targareon love in front of everyone. 

Then they go "dragon" the White Walkers.

End of story.

Also, if Bran shows up, he becomes the heir, though his role now is the Three Eyed Raven, so he won't be accepting his inheritance. 

The only way I'd see Reed revealing this is if Jon needed someone to believe his Targaryen claim, but I'd assume his word would be worth something. 

I wonder how that showdown will go done. No one can stop Dany but herself at this point. She is way overpowered. 

I'm not sure the North's Right of Ascension laws are all that developed. In fact, from what I've seen they usually involve a dude standing up in front of all the lords in a beer hall making a bold speech about returning the North to greatness and all of the drunk lords shouting "The King of the North!" until they pass out.

Which means Dany having 120k+ soliders, plus whatever is left of the 7 Kingdoms...could be the biggest cinematic battle ever.  

While it would be interesting to see Euron wipe out 3/4 of her army, probably not going to happen.  And it's convenient if that doesn't happen, because then Dany won't have to do much to unite the 7 Kingdoms because her army is at an overwhelming advantage....basically she just shows up and boots out Cersei, realizes Jon is her nephew and so pretty much everything but WW wraps in a few episodes.

The thing about about the WW army is that it grows after every battle unless you burn them. Even during the battle. 

Somehow, I expect that booting Cersei might not be so easy.
