    Meleys is a female dragon, not a male.
    She is known as "The Red Queen" due to her colour, and before Rhaenys she was ridden by Alyssa Targaryen, the mother of Viserys and Daemon.
    She is also one of the fastest dragons, even faster than Caraxes and Vhagar,

      She is known as the red queen because of the crown shaped bones on her head and ofc because of red colour.
      Also she is the fastest dragon alive and 3-4 biggest at this point.
      After vhagar and vermithor. And maybe bigger or same as caraxes

    As a book reader, I actually love the way Alicent is portrayed. In the book which is essentially a subjective history book, it is easy to hate her and her obnoxious desire for Aegon to be on the thrown because you dont get much background on who she truly is. But we get a fully fleshed out complex and nuanced character in the show. She does what she believes is right and honorable, even if theres a ton of collateral or if she’s conflicted about it.
    I love that we get to see some of her turmoil, it makes her ending make much more sense to me now. Loving this series SO much and your guy’s take!

      I hope on the last episode a giant time jump happens to Grand Maester Munkun writing the book. In a way to sort of justify some of the changes to the book, the fact that the entire story is a history book and the events are subjective and “biased” means anything the show does can potentially been an interpretation of the book.

      The dilemma of her position is that even if she thinks Rhaenyra’s children are bastards, and not deserving of rule - they’re not the ones ruling when Viserys dies. It’s Rhaenyra and she’s true Targaryen. So she can’t put Aegon on the throne self-righteously. That’s why that Viserys last words moment was needed.

    After spending YEARS with Viserys, and having endless conversations about his succession, it’s highly questionable to me that Alicent would suddenly be SO gun-ho about his wish that Aegon be king. She asked him, “Ageon? Or son?”, and he never confirmed. Imo, she’s being blinded her own ambitions, rather than a true misunderstanding. She sure is eager and quick to believe a dying, out of it, man.

    • @rdpaik

      Alicent didn’t suddenly wish Aegon to be king. That was ALWAYS the case (remember when she warned Aegon, when he was jerking off by the window, that he needed to prepare to be king) until the last dinner with the whole family, when she told Rhaenyra that she would be a good queen. Viserys’ last words just swung her back to where she was. Even if she Viserys didn’t say it, there was no way Otto would allow anything otherwise.

    Remember that the Small Council was already planning the coup long before they had any idea about the nonsense that Alicent is informing them now of. Alicent's misunderstanding of Viserys primarily only serves to give her a genuine reason for pursuing Aegon's crowning. However, civil war was inevitable regardless. Even if Alicent didn't tell Otto that, he was probably already planning to tell the people of the realm some similar bullshit anyways...or not. But he was always going to put Aegon II on the throne. This just gives Alicent the motivation to wholly endorse what the Small Council was scheming to do the whole time. No matter what the specifics ended up being, Otto and his minions had long guaranteed civil war was the only possible outcome.

      @@CulperCast It’s not being a hater to criticize someone’s action (esp because I like Rhaenys a lot). But she had an entire night to contemplate this. She could’ve saved tens of thousands of lives, including her beloved family members had she taken the Greens out right there and then. Granted - it would’ve been against her nature to do it, and a tough decision (I think she was very tempted until she saw Alicent move in front of Aegon to shield him, and then her maternal instincts hit). There are many moments like this in every show (and I guess no future shows if characters do the smart thing). Theon should’ve cut Ramsay’s throat when he was shaving him, Sansa should’ve quickly pushed Joffrey off the plank, etc… But at times, there are moments where the good character makes the tough choice (but in turn, saves so many more future lives) like Jon Snow killing Daenaerys.

      In the beginning at the table, it even looked like she was doubting it for a second. She heard what she wanted to hear ultimately. And even if she hadn’t said anything, Otto and the small council were plotting and scheming on taking the throne and taking out Rhaenyra anyway. They were going to start a civil war whether Alicent said anything or not. Daemon was always right about Otto lol.

      It is a lie though, she heard what she wanted to hear. She knew very well he was not in his right mind and was not talking to her. She has convinced herself of the lie to where now she believes it because in her heart she wants the power, hence her reaction to "have you never imagined yourself on the iron throne." She knew Viscerys was confusing her with Rhyanera, the entire conversation she was confused until she heard Aegon and ran with it. This is what power hungry people do, they hear what they want to hear and then convince themselves it is what it is
