@@RicePho NO, she didn't say she want Aemond at any price. When Queens/Kings say things like that they mean ''bring that person to me for subsequent torture and execution'' and not ''hire questionable characters to kill any person should the requested one is unavailable''🙄
I remember What Viserys said in Season 1 ep 1 that Daemon is ambitious but lacks the Patience for the Throne..( that is how well Viserys understood his brother and not that he didn’t trust him)
You might be drawing an unnecessary distinction. Viserys knowing that Daemon is impatient would mean that he couldn't trust him to not take impulsive reckless actions. That seems to be the basis for Rhaenyra's distrust as well.
"HE WAS NOT ADRAID OF YOU DAEMON! He could not trust YOU" it was very satisfying to say the least when she tells him this but this is the very reason Otto Hightower was able to take advantage of Viserys for so many years. Otto is an opportunist by all means. Daemon loved his brother no doubt and wanted his love and he wanted to rule with Viserys. He wanted to be his hand of the king. Daemon expected everything from Viserys yet he never gave him anything. Daemon was just not trustworthy. Rhaenyra trusted him and Daemon blew that into the worst possible thing he could do.
If Viserys had actually had a spine and told Otto off, he could have guided Daemon. Part of the issue was Otto poisoning Viserys view of Daemon. Daemon couldn't do anything right in the eyes of Otto or the councl. Daemon respected and loved his brother deeply. Daemon is also a man of action he's a great solder and strategist in combat but politics are boring to him. I am by no means condoning some of his actions, but some of his actions could be traced back to his histo
He should have told her that the only reason she was named as heir is because Otto Hightower wanted her named over daemon. So think about what that means after seeing what Otto has done. Also Otto made king not trust daemon
Otto didn't need to twist Viserys' perception much to know what was plain in front of him. Sure, Otto was an opportunist, but he's not done anything another Lord wouldn't have. He led the Kingdom's while V played with legos. The simple fact is that Otto knew what Viserys tried to ignore until the "king for a day" incident. Otto knew Daemon would have been a terrible king. Did he want Rhaenyra as heir, yeah, because the only other option was Daemon. The Law of succession was set the moment King Viserys was crowned, so Otto likely assumed that if Viserys didn't plan on remarriage or having a son, then he likely would have supported Rhaenyra to the end. But then he remarried, had not one, but three sons. While Rhaenyra went and had 3 obvious bastards and THEN married Daemon... meaning he'd be King Consourt. Which as we've seen... he would have been just as dangerous as Consourt as he would have been as King. People would have looked to him even if Rhaenyra was Queen. Everyone would look to "the man" in this situation. Because let's face it... Westros is still in the Dark Ages, and men have always been seen as "higher" than women. So a King Consourt would have just been treated as the King. It also doesn't help that he's also close to 20-30 years older, so people would assume he's the wiser and better ruler. Rhaenyra set the stage for a troubled rule as soon as her brothers were born and she had bastards. Peace went out the door when Rhaenyra had bastards at the same time as her true born brothers were. But war was guaranteed when she married Daemon...
The greens made their bed when Otto used Viserys' weakness to worm his family's way into power now lay in it for there is more than one dragon in the family they tried to usurp
they are at war... and she acts like they are not... she takes a few days to mourn, she wants him to come and deliver a baby with her instead of him insuring they have security... she is her fathers daughter and he sees that she will loose because she doesnt understand the predicament she is in... the greens mean to end her! smh it is war she is not a war general and leader of men, he is! why is she not delegating and let him cook...
It like show conforming this idea: Women cannot rule because they're too emotional and weak in desicion-making. Is this really gonna be the message of the show??!@grichkatayou7558
@VladimirMickel perhaps the message would: don't be a weak ruler who follows dreams and superstitious. The show tries to praise viserys and point him as a good king. The same man who is responsible for the danse.
The show was Aegon brother, in the book it was a son for a son. Which makes you wonder why he couldn't just comfort rhaynera and be there for her as support but this is how Damon is.
I think a lot of people miss the fact that court intrigue (whether in fantasy worlds or in real life) is entertaining to watch, but there's never a right side, it's about power/opportunism. Some people might go on about legitimacy of who is the rightful heir, but in irl the 100 years war or the war that occurred because others would not recognize maria theresa's claim to the HRE's throne because she was a woman (even when all of those involved agreed that her ascendancy was legitimate before her father's death, they still waged war because it was opportune), it's all about power grabs and who cares about the justification. I guess people just enjoy picking sides, even though just watching the lunacy unfold wihtout picking a side is entertaining enough.
As an anarchist I concur. I think I side with the Blacks more because Rhaenyra hated the norms of her day and tried her absolute best to circumvent them. Can't help but sympathize, even if she does pay dearly later on 😢 But ultimately as all royals must be deposed and overthrown 🤷♂️
Do you lot even read the book House of Fire or do pick the source on the wiki page whose historical account you like best and then regurgitate that? The book Fire & Blood is not canon as it is Maester's historical recollection of the events that happened. It is mired with inaccuracies and conflicting information and it is designed to mirror the inaccurate historical treaties of ancient and medieval historians. The fact that the information is presented from the viewpoint of multiple different conflicting sources is supposed to illustrate that the events that happened aren't supposed to taken at face value.

For the entire dance of dragons, her hesitancy to play the game of thrones destroyed house targaryan and the age of dragons. She started this by sending her sons and heirs yo vulnerable locations. Almost everything is viserys and rhaenyras fault by their inaction.

They both have a point. Viserys was a coward who could seldom bring himself to spill blood and declare war when he needed to. But he also was never jealous of his brother or afraid of him for the reason that Daemon thinks: it was because Viserys knew that Daemon is an impulsive cutthroat. And he was right. Daemon and Viserys were two sides of the same coin. They’re both the extreme ends of the same spectrum.
and with this, it’s clear that Damon cares about no one but himself. because he literally does the opposite of what everyone wants him to do. I don't see how so many people think Deamon loved his brother and cared for him when all he did was insult him and make a fool of him and now he's doing the same with Rheanyra.
"Anything goes" means anything can be the consequence. Daemon didn't think this through, or consult anyone else. It wasn't his decision to make alone. And even in a barbaric age, barbaric actions have a cost.
Except this action literally didnt benefit them at all???? Before Rhaenyra was generally considered the more moral side at least, now she is the baby murderer and will have a much harder time keeping the houses on her side.
Nope. There are always consequences. Rhaenyra lost the support of the houses she needed because of this. And that was an absolutely devastating blow, especially when kin-killing considered so heinous in Westerosi society. They were also not fully committed to war. Rhaenyra tried to sue for peace, and even the Greens were hesitant to escalate...before this. War has never been about "anything goes." There has to be strategy, and even more so, PR. Losing valuable allies because someone like Daemon wanted their enemy to suffer, without even thinking of all of the possible ways it could have gone wrong (and did) might have just cost them the war.
Both sides spilt innocent blood. They should of all just shown up with meleys and fought aemond and aegon. Ending the war then. Why only send 1 dragon to battle. At least they could of sent Daemond with and his dragon. The battle would of ended with 2 seasoned dragons and their riders.
Daemon is not a gray character unlike the others, he’s just pure evil. I’m looking forward to seeing him lose his mind by Alys. Wreck him, Aemond and Alys.
Yall acting like aemond isn't a war criminal himself.. especially the fact that he not only killed a child but also he is gonna commit massacred and will take alys as prize of war
it's crazy how this dude has so many fans, he really borders on psychopathy, the only somewhat good character is Rhaenyra, somewhat, because Viserys was her role model, like Daemond is an absolute narcissist, it's the same as defending Daniel Day Lewis' character in There Will Be Blood, both intriguing protagonists but both absolutely insane and not admirable, but people do, it's crazy to me
He's more a sociopath than a psychopath otherwise he would killed his brother and taken his throne at some point. He had a dragon. His brother did not. Yet he loved him enough not to do that and at least atempt to protect him from his small council. I think the majority of Black fans no he's a monster of sorts but he does have limits and doesn't kill indiscriminately. Literally a dragon in human form. Much like the dragon he rides he doesn't kill for killings sake but only when slighted or provoked. It certainly doesn't make him very human but it doesn't make him evil either.
@@Not-Ap he literally murdered his wife in cold blood so he could get together with an underage Rhaenyra, who's his niece, yeah different times and shlt but cmon now, he's a villain but yall want to romanticize him, I could go on, having Heleanas son killed, turning on his allies when he sees fit, he's a villain through and through, like I said, it's an interesting character but I just don't get how you could admire him, and many do, and he knew he couldn't just kill Viserys, he would be exiled, you just can't go and kill the King and expect to get away with it and be named King afterwards as he wasn't the only one with a dragon, his best bet was staying somewhat loyal
