I’m pretty sure that Aegon’s dragon Sunfyre was born from his egg. I am not 100% sure about that. But he is a young dragon and Aegon is his only rider, while Helaena’s dragon Dreamfyre has had previous riders. And now Aemond has the beast Vhagar.

2023-07-12 00:46:32 +0000 UTCCriston Cole not appearing to have any punishment for killing Joffrey Lonmouth at the royal wedding is one of the things that bugs me most about this season. As I said, in response to the last episode, this whole scenario is a little different in the book. In the book Criston still kills Joffrey, but it was during a tournament held for the wedding and could be explained away better in that situation. But I have heard people come up with several suggestions of why he could have avoided punishment. First off, he could have received clemency from Alicent. As he becomes her sworn shield after the wedding this makes some sense. Second off, the Lonmouth’s are not an extremely powerful house that could put up a big fuss if the queen stood by having Criston absolved of his crime. And lastly, Laenor would not want to make a big deal about the fact that Joffrey was his lover. So for all these reasons it could have been potentially swept under the rug. But I agree that it just seems so crazy that he is still there and that Leanor just has to live with it. And I really wish they would have addressed it somewhere in the dialogue. Criston Cole is a character that most people really rooted for in the beginning of the season. But between episodes five and six he became one of the most hated! This episode is also infamous for giving us two characters that most people wanted to see more of and learn more about, and then killed them both off by the end of the episode! Of course I am talking about Leana and Harwin. All in all it is a great episode IMO. And while everyone hated to see the young actors who played Rhaenyra and Allicent go, their older counterparts showed how great they would be with the characters going forward.

2023-07-05 06:24:21 +0000 UTCThere were more than a few times during the second half of the season that I wished we got to see a little bit of what happened during the ten year time jump. It must have been very complicated for Rhaenyra. On the one hand, she has to have heirs. She has to have them to secure her position, but her husband is not into her like that. If she were more about playing the game, she would have found another blond or white-haired person (throwing out actual genetics for a minute and going with GOT-parentage rules) to fall in love/have children with. But she fell for Harwin. And clearly it was love because they stayed together all of those years. The kids are Targaryens. They have dragons. That should be enough, but we know it's not.

2023-07-01 05:21:46 +0000 UTCDaemon didn’t love Laena but he greatly respected her. Daemon needs someone to fight to be fulfilled or he is lost. I don’t think he knew what he was going to do after that maester asked him about c - section. He seemed loss that whole episode. I think if pressed and if Laena hadn’t done what she did. He would have asked her because he felt lost and he respected her.

2023-06-30 09:46:30 +0000 UTCThis episode and next put Allicent up with Cersei as great villains but ones I truly loathe . Cersei for her arrogance and cruelty and hate for everyone beneath her. Allicent for her hypocrisy and self righteousness and bitterness. She chose this fate . Sadistic male villains like Ramsey and Jeoffrey are truly the worst as they go against every trait a man should be. But characters like Allicent are the ones who make me yell at the tv. Because I feel they are the complete opposite of what I find attractive in a woman.

2023-06-29 17:59:32 +0000 UTCAh, ser Harwin. I remember after this one episode, there were suddenly numerous fan videos with all the times he interacted with Rhaenyra. From her coming back covered in blood, everyone looking disapproving, yet ser Harwin just smiles, because to him she's just really cool. To how he recognised her dressed as a boy and let her be. To carrying her away after the wedding turned into chaos. To the few scenes they shared here. People were shipping them and wanting to know more about their story. Even some Daemon and Rhaenyra fans were agreeing that it's a pity Harwin died before we got to really know him. From what little we saw, he was a hell of a man.

2023-06-29 15:11:35 +0000 UTCI love how strong my queen Rhaenyra is. Allicent is a petty, jealous bitch to me now. Still bitter after 10+ years, Criston too is still butt hurt. I honestly am ok with Rhaenyra's sweet boys, since they have Targaryen royal blood unlike Cerseis kids who weren't related to Robert at all. Rhaenyra had to make heirs and not like she slept around like her husband. Laenor clearly wasn't up to the task as they both agreed to do their duty. Plus isn't Rhaenys brown haired in the book. So happy u see Cole for who he is lol. Allicent is such a hyprocrite, maybe she should be focusing on raising her son to be an heir instead of focusing on Rhaenyra's kids so much. Rhaenyra's and Allicents parenting is like day and night. Allicent is filling her sons with hate, paranoia & resentment towards their sister & nephews. Rhaenyra even offered a genuine olive branch this episode to Allicent. Which would have definitely prevented the dance of dragons if Allicent had agreed to the generous offer. I'm soo glad u also noticed how Visery was so sad that Rhaenyra left. Kissing Aemma ring while crying, Rhaenyra was the only reminder he had of his beloved wife. U see how happy he gets while looking at her face, its clear he always sees Aemma. I gave Allicent a chance this episode, if she was so righteous and honurable, she will turn in Larys Strong right away. If shes protects him and goes along with it, she's far worse than Rhaenyra and the biggest hyprocrite.

2023-06-29 07:31:46 +0000 UTCAlicent hates that Rhaenyra’s sons eggs hatched in their cribs her kids couldn’t. Even though their children are half targaryen they can still hatch eggs she’s mad that her half targaryen kids couldn’t do want Rhaenyra’s kids did.

2023-06-29 07:24:39 +0000 UTCThis is a saying that has circulated in memes but…Imagine how good a Targaryen one night stand is, that Criston still holds a grudge about it 10 years later hahah
