Arya doesn't seem like the settling down to become queen type. I expect her story ends with her getting on a ship to Essos or something. Gendry doesn't seem like king material either - maybe he becomes the head of House Baratheon, but that's about it.

That ending would suit the outlook of the first three seasons. But GoT has become a very different show since then. I'd be surprised if it has a cynical or downbeat ending.
