I absolutely loved hearing the voices of the actors from the Game of Thrones tv series narrating the story.

[@benjaminngopwaamos6878]

First voice at 0:19 is Viserys III Targaryen's actor (Harry Lloyd),
Second at 4:17 is Robert Baratheon actor (Mark Addy),
Third at 5:44 is Catelyn Stark actor (Michelle Fairley),
Fourth at 13:30 is Oberyn Martell actor (Pedro Pascal),
and finally at 17:54 is the Joffrey Lannister actor (Jack Gleeson).
Harry Lloyd and Mark Addy narrate other parts of the story in-between.

I bet there were moments at the sept before the riot that she would suddenly come back to her senses and realize she has no idea how she got there. And when Rhaenyra comes to King's Landing I bet the first thing she'll say to Rhaenyra is "I'm sorry about Jace and Luke."

It’s a shame how bad the HBO show is compared to the book. The book is way better with a clear message in my opinion: how people in power use weapons of mass destruction to obtain power, killing thousands in the process. How people in power succumb to their passions making everybody around them suffer.
This story has been repeated time and time again. But today’s Hollywood is so politically and profit-driven that most shows are below average when it comes to writing. They think that people are only interested in sound production and VFX. The story will always be first if you want to have people watching.
After the second season, my interest in the show has waned, and I find myself not eagerly anticipating future seasons. The show's direction and storytelling have left me disappointed and disheartened.

That's because the TV series greatly expanded the story to show how things led up to the Dance of the Dragons. In the books, the story begins where the second half of season 1 began. They tried to squeeze more money out of a successful Intellectual Property but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it added to the lore covered in the books. George himself says that Paddy's portrayal of King Viserys turned out greater than his brief portrayal in the books. Young Rhaenyra was also a great revelation and benefited the show. It's a short story so I don't see this going more than 3 or 4 seasons, even taking expansion into account.

@@El_.5794 Yeah, it's a super brave and selfless step for him, actually. He literally won them a war then and there. As much as I dislike Aemond, he and Vhagar are dangerous, at least 60% of the green force.

[@robervalhaha]

If were are talking about fighters in the books neither Daemon nor Aemond are considered great swordsman, just great dragon riders. Daemon for example, even with Darksister he lost to Criston Cole in a melee and was also defeated in a joust match, Aemond also don't have any duels in the whole war.

[@agentopaque3776]

Its funny how Rhaenyras own descendants dont even like her lol

[@michelm5072]

In Westeros, the history books do not remember Rhaenyra as a queen but as a claimant or even a usurper. Stannis in the books says that his end was deserved. Therefore, they blame her for the death of the dragons, for wanting to ascend the throne instead of obeying Jahaerys' decree.

[@michelm5072]

Fun fact: Rhaena, daughter of Daemon, will marry Garmund Hightower after the war; the Velaryon and the Hightower become good friends, in fact the latter financially support the Velaryon house since they were ruined after the Dance.
Hopefully Garmund appears and has a relationship with Rhaena. It would be a very nice way to reconcile the greens and the blacks.

[@mauratlantean3002]

Don't let Daemon hear his daughter married a Hightower 😂

Jeffrey's voice in narrating is the definition of perfection

[@salamander_automatic2491]

I find the narration combined with the mystical and haunting music at 20:00 to be so powerful. It captures the feeling of an apocalyptic cautionary tale so perfectly, I can't quite describe it.

[@michelm5072]

I thought exactly the same. That sad music, two scared children assuming themselves as kings and the dragon corpses that represent not only the beasts themselves but the two sides that killed each other, is a perfect ending. An ending worthy of a Greek or Shakespearean tragedy. I hope for an ending like this in the show

[@blasian_nate]

[@sunchaser9898]

18:05 you think you slick with that self glazing, King Joffery.

[@rickardcooper6063]

All of this because of Otto Hightower and his delusions of grandeur for his familial line.

[@Mmm-nj5dk]

Tragerians be like we will destroy each other but not let Hightower enter in our bloodline that passes on, and it did not indeed.

[@stephenjenkins7971]

Otto is hardly the only reason this civil war broke out. Rhaenyra would have caused one regardless due to her poor political choices.

[@jaxzor]

all this because Viserys was a cucked fool, dumbest Targaryen king, outclassed only by the Mad King and Aegon IV.
Otto just played the game of thrones...Viserys alone destroyed the House of the Dragon.

[@user-zw6tu4cd9m]

All of this because of weakling fool Viserys.

[@mauratlantean3002]

All of this because trash king Viserys was feeling guilty about his late wife and wouldn't listen to reason, setting up his descendants for war.

[@jay-t1030]

Aegon ii had the potential to be a better king than his father. If only he was give the opportunity to prove it. Long love the gold dragon.

[@gooby214]

Aegon the Magnanimous did nothing wrong, and his family branch had the great Daeron the Daring.

[@HolyknightVader999]

Aegon II pulling a fast one and winning the war would be funny if it happens in the show.

[@torum6448]

tbf, he kinda did end up winning it, but he snatched defeat from the jaws of victory so to say. If he had listened and pardoned all the black houses, then agree to the marriage of Aegon the younger to his daughter Jahaeyra, the dance would have ended with an extremely pyrrhic victory for the greens.

[@nicksmithnutmilk]

It will happen

[@Johannes_Seerup]

My theory: Alicent poisons Aegon. Retribution for Rhaenyra’s death. And for the seven kingdoms.

[@faurtracstv715]

i wouldnt be surprised, they already ruined series, so why not further🤣

[@A_divisive_scarecrow]

The Battle of Rooks rest in the show is a complete pile of sh*t compared to the one on the books. Meleys with Rhaenys are showcased as heroic martyrs, Aegon a fool who dared to oppose the twice as large and fast Meleys than his own dragon, Sunfyre a complete weakling with no firepower (his blast hit Meleys and Rhaenys directly in their faces and not a scratch on any of them), and Aemond is... well a fckn traitor, who willingly burnt his own brother.
In the books, the two Targaryen brother attacks together, shoulder-to-shoulder, Aegon had a fckn strategic plan, and didn't just rushed to face such a formidable enemy alone stupidly...
I hate the showrunners for what they did to the green faction. Instead of a choesive, supporting family they are always at each other's throat, trying to cause as many trouble for each other as possible.
Madnesss.... madness and stupidity.

[@Cristina-xb7xx]

this made me cry.. so tragic

[@ZiggyBones]

For anyone deciding to watch this. The broad strokes are for the most part correct, but much of this was changed in Fire and Blood which came out years later after this was created iirc around Season 4 or Season 5 of GOT. This also leaves out quite a bit from the original source material it adapted in The Princess and The Queen.

[@HerbChao14xs]

The artwork for Aemond is done really well. Show has been awesome so far; sad only 3 episodes left this season

[@tinaye8638]

Most of the dragons died in the actual war, whilst 2 of the dragonseeds dragon's died. Nettles and her dragon got away and Silverwing likely died of old age. In the end she and moon dancer where the last dragons but they eventually died. At that stage none of the eggs were hatching for some reason, and the only one that hatched bit of a chunk of one the Targeryns children's arm so it was killed, I think that one was the last dragon

Then you should support Cersei because she wants a bastard to rule the Seven Kingdoms and he is not a Baratheon
Greens have a clear reason as blacks
The Greens do not want a bastard to rule, and he is not a Targaryen, and on top of that, they have a male son of the king, who is Aegon II, and we know that the male has priority among the Targaryen. If you want to blame anyone, blame Viserys the idiot who did not declare Aegon the rightful heir before he died.
