Why did Missandei say only "dracarys" in Game of Thrones S08E04?

In Game of Thrones S8 E04, "The Last of the Starks", Cersei kills Missandei, but before killing her, she asks if Missandei has any last words, and Missandei replies: Dracarys ! Why did she say that, but nothing else?

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

We all know Dracarys is the word to release Dragon fire. Missandei is telling Daenerys to burn Cersei Lannister. Nathalie Emmanuel who played Missandei tweeted after the release and response of S08E04. She tweeted "Dracarys" and replied with "Burn the bish" . Bish is slang for bitch and she is referring to Cersei Lannister by that word.
