This scene was so well made she touched him and turn her back against him aswell and he respected her, could’ve eaten her or broil her but she commanded respect even thou she was most likely Nervous to some extent. I love it, Shame the future wasn’t kind to dragons or their house…by far house Targaryen is the most interesting and powerful due to their dragons and something we won’t ever see again as I am sure no sequels will be made and the writers will find a way to kill Drogon off before any eggs are laid or found. At this point the only way we are gonna see more dragons feats is on a prequel about old Valyria or Aegon’s conquest
@@hmmmnope1546 Lol For real though I would shit my pants if he standing behind me like that. He like I will stay behind you Mom. until my snack comes forward
When you hear the rumbling of Vermithor approaching and then he appears out of nowhere from the darkness like he was right in front of them the whole time.
Honestly I think he was because I think each dragon has it’s own lair where they stay at and they have multiple entrances from the castle to make it easier and quicker to get each dragon
I just love how Vermithor isn't bonded with her, but still has a very "Yes, ma'am" demeanor with her! While back in season 1, Daemon tried singing to him and he just spat fire at the ceiling.
I think that spat fire at the ceilling was a happy welcome from Vermithor since what Daemon was singing is the old song that Jaeherys used to sing. It's just nostalgic for Vermithor and his reaction of not getting agressive again after the fire is the prove over it.
@@renanandre6031and i think it's also like saying Hi for hin in general. He didn't see humand in DECADES bro, it was certainly a surprise for him to see one. Even if he is called The Bronze Fury, I'm sure he had good relationship with his first rider and humans in general. The Old King could be strict and gentle when he needed to. He even scratched Vermithor in front of lord Baratheon, grandfather of Rhaenys
He probably hasn't seen her since she was 6 years old so it took him a while to recognize her scent. Apparently she and vermithor have a good relationship when her great grandfather was still alive.
@@samuelbrown3405 To be completely honest. I don’t think so, they go from receiving uppies, to giving the uppies to their rider. Which I’m sure brings them even more joy.

@@ozzy.8413 they went there willingly. Rhaenyra made the call and they followed knowing the danger. Once Vermithor started killing them even she couldn't stop him. Also, before going to the cave, she made it very clear that they may won't come back.
@@JioKyritsis lol he mental gymnastics people go through to defend rhaenyra being an outright kinslayer just to have a dragon rider can't wait for this to bite her in the ass later.
This is proof she is the rightful heir to the Targaryan legacy & kingdom. The fiercest dragon alive, her grandfather's original mount, accepted her as queen & answered her call.
The blood of the dragon is in her. Dragon lords put the blood in themselves. See why she had a dragon baby with scales. Her father said the blood of the dragon is in daemon and her and they are restless. Her 6x granddaughter mother of dragons is the same.
I noticed the bigger they are, the heavier their growl and reverb in their throat gets, (kinda obvious) but Vermithor specially has a very slow rumble to his growling, signaling his enormous size
Ngl this scene showed me Rhaynera is LIKE that too fr. She went infront of Vermithor with the knowledge that she had no chance of claim over him due to already having a dragon which could very well have ended badly for her. But to prove her point she stood confident and tall and called upon the bronze fury. even that little smirk she had when he calmed down and let her pet him. it was like "yeah ik I had it in me". Definitely could've claimed vermithor herself if she didn't have syrax.
When Rhae touched Vermithor his nostrils opened just like Drogon did with Jon Snow. Like Drogon, Vermithor was immediately soothed and closed his eyes purring like a kitten to his Targaryen Queen. The look Rhaenyra gave was that she was proud of him.
Dragons are not mindless killing machines. Rhaenyra has known Vermithor since she was a kid. He most likely remembers her. Petting and interacting with a dragon is not the same as claiming and riding one.
@rafaelsmith8490 I'm aware of that, But clearly her and daemon know that approaching Vermithor could have consequences. I never called the dragons mindless killing machine. my point was that rhaynera was bad ass for displaying her bravery despite knowing the risks she was taking. And I'm pretty sure she's never had any reason to actually go visit vermithor. so she may have known OF vermithor but it was a wild dragon residing under them. there's no evidence to state That she herself had been down there to see him even as a kid. Regardless of any of that, she took a risk and she did it boldy and bravely. that was my point.
@lisas3545 he met Rhaenyera when she was 9 years old, Jaherys was nearly passed but he still wanted to introduce her to his dragon, Vermithor immediately took a liking to the small great grandchild of his rider, he probably took a deep breath of her scent and just felt calm and at peace that the little girl he met all those years ago was still alive and well.
This scene reminded me of how the white stag also came to her. She doesn’t need to be the “heir apparent” or fight for her crown; the land already crowned her.
They took care of these dragons for at least a third of their lives, they know to steer clear when they are displeased or in a bad mood.Dragons are also as smart as us people, and have complex emotions, but they are ravenous.
The dragon isn't black. He's not gonna use American ebonics slang like "auntie." Nobody will be calling Corliss "unc" anytime soon. Rhaenyra won't be saying she "feels some type of way" about bastards riding dragons. It's a fantasy show, not your local hood. I know they race-swapped a bunch of characters from the books, but I don't see any cookouts or drill rap happening on this show. Sorry to disappoint you.
I love Vermithor’s atttitude. He hears her say “be calm” so he decides to act even more rambunctious until she scolds him 🤣 his design is amazing, and I’m loving that scared / cleft lip he has.
It's aggravating that we never got to see Danny and her dragons in this location. Her calling them up when she goes to save Jon would have been awesome.
Not really. The way she portrays her character is good sure until you realise her wordage and vocabulary outside of acting is very similar. Not throwing shade I just think suits the roll well good job to whoever casted her
His size, his stomps, his entrance, his roar! His coos! Her demeanor, her high Valariyan, her confidence, her commanding tone!! The look of fear and amazement they all had! Everything that made this scene incredible!!! 🐉🟤🔥
I loved her proving herself and then her face when she was able to touch him without issue. She knew then that she still got what it takes. This proved it.
She is a Targaryen - true blood ones, dragon queen. Not every Targaryen can bond with an aggressive dragon like that. Vermithor did not allow even Daemon to touch him
Can we say it together: PHENOMENAL SOUND DESIGN 😭😍 At 1:55 especially with those low almost EMP-esq rumbles. All of the dragons were beautifully crafted. The sound design team deserves so much for their hard work. Stunning ❤️
He actually already chose when he first laid his eyes on Hugh. That's him choosing and then decided to make everyone else a snack that is why he did not give warning of the flame burning hot on the grill. Hugh just needed to realise that he was selected when he stands up to him
Probably the greatest dragon scene we've ever seen in all of Game of Thrones. I haven't been massively impressed with season 2, but this episode was outstanding tv. The music, cgi, acting, all was impeccable.
@@queenxx1690 Yeah this whole plan was pretty low-effort on her part. Hugh had to watch a few others die before he realized the dragon was testing them. Aemond needed to yell at Vhagar to "serve" in Valyrian. Things like this would have been useful to know beforehand
@@Omgiamsotriggered it clearly doesn't here. I love how the show have individualised each dragon. Its almost like Vermithor needed Hugh to face ultimate peril before he was ready to be claimed.
Emma Darcy is so damn good with her facial acting. I think probably one of the best in the world. They way they can convey emotions so effectively in this scene without saying a word is just pure beauty. After Rhaenyra got Vermithor to calm down you could see badass, evilness, confidence and a reminder to her that she is the true queen.
I was sold on their acting when i saw their last shot in the last episode of season 1. They really conveyed the pain of a mother losing her child, and the subsequent want for revenge. They did the right thing casting Emma D'arcy in this role
Emma shined in this season. Since the mourning of Luke´s death to the confrontation with Daemon, she knocked it out of the park with her facial expressions.
"So we're all gonna go down there in a big group, and one by one we're gonna try to bond with Vermithor until someone succeeds ." Uhm.... What happens to people he rejects? "Oh he'll burn the crap out of them. Everyone make sure to clump together!"
May I say that the way Vermithor's arrival on screen was handled is absolutely perfect. We hear the clattering of rocks, and hear his gutteral growls and noises, and then his huge shape just materializes out of the darkness. Love it. 👌
Love the fact Vermithor immediately shows up when Rhaenyra calls for him. He could've just ignored her call and remained where he was and that would've made things incredibly awkward for her infront of all the dragonseeds.
She first called him calmly then sensed Vermithor restless and sensed he needed firm and commanding presence hence the 2nd ‘calm down’ order. Rhaenyra got the dragons trust and attention after that. I love it.
I think Hugh actually took notes when Rhaenyra pacified Vermithor. He did almost the same thing, just without the High Valyrian; first called Vermithor's attention, then stood before him without showing fear, and when Vermithor did his intimidation display up close Hugh was not having it and basically told Vermithor "shut up and let me drive", which is close enough to "Serve".
Rhynaera could have used a riderless Vermithor like Dany did with her dragons but the risk of Vermithor bonding with someone that doesn't serve her is too great. That's why its important that the rider serves Rhynaera, which is also why she got angry at Adam and seasmoke until she saw him bend the knee. Dany never had to worry about this because she was the only Targaryen left and bastards were extremely rare or had very diminished blood.
She killed this scene love how she pronounces Thors name and her Valyrian sounds so on point, the moment she touched Thor and they both closed their eyes instantly connecting so dope
I know the Targaryen usually bonded with a dragon that they raised themselves, as it creates a stronger bond between the rider and the dragon. But this scene alone makes me think that Rhaenyra could have bonded with Vermithor if she didn't have Syrax as her dragon. I think she would have become a fearsome warrior if she did ride Vermithor.
this scene was stupid he should eat her but suddenly Bronze Fury, is calm ? because of what she put hand on him ? she is not his rider even Tagaryens can be eaten by touching other dragon he should growl at her and not let her close, it is fun service at it best .
@@queenxx1690there's a theory that vermithor and silverwings are syrax's parents. Perhaps vermithor recognized his daughter's rider, thus he's more compliant with Rhaenyra than anyone
@@laphonz invalid argument. the dance of dragons is between a lot of dragons who know eachother and some of the other riders. by that logic, they would refuse to attack each other.
She is almost full blooded Targaryen. They are much more likely to be accepted by dragons. Plus she has a ton of experience with dragons. Like a horseman can calm a wild horse because he understands them.
It’s cool how the rightful heir dominates a beast. Screw the dragon keepers, she got this! Nobody nor even Daemon could calm it. If Rhynaera hasn’t got a dragon yet she could claim Vermithor
His dragon nostrils are so big, our human heads would be like dragon boogers 😂. Damn he’s one huge dragon! That scene was everything. The queen standing tall and proud, with the Bronze Fury behind her. What a statement 🔥🔥🔥💪
I still don't understand why Rhaenyra didn't try to find a rider for Silverwing first, as a calmer and friendlier dragon, and immediately released the bronze psychopath. lol
Priority. Vermithor is the largest dragon on Dragon stone and the 2nd biggest dragon behind Vhagar, so they wanted a rider for Vermithor because that would mean they would have a weapon against Vhagar right away. And then Silverwing would be next, after the claiming of Vermithor.
@@vegforlife Silverwing refused a few riders in the books, she just didn't kill them. She had a much different preference than Vermithor. The blacks also seemed to preselect the candidates a bit too and send them to the dragon they thought might be the best match. No point sending Vermithor the timid washerwomen, but the stong, stoic blacksmith is worth a shot. Even a dwarf court jester made an attempt with Silverwing before Ulf
What A Scene! I don't Know How Much Time I saw This Scene Repeatedly. Specially Rhaanryera's High Valariyan. Totally Badass. "Laqiri, Dohairais " & Bonding After Closing their Eyes. Pleasant for My Eyes. Oscar/Emmy For the Sound Team. Each Sound is different from Other Dragon & They made it like Real Creature.
His stomps, his entrance, his roar! His coos! Her demeanor, her high Valariyan, her confidence, her commanding tone!! The look of fear and amazement they all had! Everything that made this scene incredible!!! 🐉🟤🔥
OMG the force behind that "Dohaeris", Rhaenyra is a true dragon Queen 👑🐉 I heard in the book, each bastard is sent one by one, I'm so glad they did it this way instead.
I don't think so. Dragons are very intelligent creatures and understand high valyirian to a degree. Rhaenyra simply summoned him and he answered. I don't think Vermithor was in the market for a new rider.
Absolutely wild how people just want to be smartasses so badly they don't even recognise a joke lol "on board" as in "damn girl, if you weren't taken already we could be great together" 😂 and yes, they would be
@causticgastrap2835 He's smaller but not that much smaller. He actually grows faster than vhagar and he's 90 years younger and nearly her size. If he reached vhagars age he would have grown bigger than she did
The slow gurgling sound that the dragon makes is wonderful sound design. The dragon is so massive, even its vocal chords take time to move. It's little things like that which enhance immersion.
The way she pronounced Vermithor and Dohaeris. Chef's kiss

I just love that little smirk she has on her face, bad ass...
Emma D'arcy smirk at 2:34. She looks gorgeous AF
That Dohaeras 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Emma Darcy is so damn good with her facial acting. I think probably one of the best in the world. They way they can convey emotions so effectively in this scene without saying a word is just pure beauty. After Rhaenyra got Vermithor to calm down you could see badass, evilness, confidence and a reminder to her that she is the true queen.
🎉You’re a Great Observer! I started watching her in this show and understood instantly what Great acting is meant to be 😮
I was sold on their acting when i saw their last shot in the last episode of season 1. They really conveyed the pain of a mother losing her child, and the subsequent want for revenge. They did the right thing casting Emma D'arcy in this role
@@CoolsBreeze She is awesome indeed! I couldn't imagine anyone else playing her role.
Emma shined in this season. Since the mourning of Luke´s death to the confrontation with Daemon, she knocked it out of the park with her facial expressions.
"So we're all gonna go down there in a big group, and one by one we're gonna try to bond with Vermithor until someone succeeds ."
Uhm.... What happens to people he rejects?
"Oh he'll burn the crap out of them. Everyone make sure to clump together!"
Uhm.... What happens to people he rejects?

Rhaenyra: "Happy Hunger Games and may the GODS be ever in your favor"
Honestly. One of the coolest monster scenes in all of cinema
May I say that the way Vermithor's arrival on screen was handled is absolutely perfect. We hear the clattering of rocks, and hear his gutteral growls and noises, and then his huge shape just materializes out of the darkness. Love it. 👌
Funny thing I've noticed. Vhagar's head looks like giant monitor lizard while Vermithor looks much more like a crocodile.
They both look like Crocs. Vhagar just looks older and fatter
Hehe I don't think they would find that funny if you told them...
Rhaenyra was awesome in episode...Her valyrian, Her command...❤
I replayed this one effing scene for like 100x already!
@@nowitbegins9097 Same here; It's so good!
The dragon vocalisations are a master class. Just like all animals sounds of warning welcome acceptance its all there.
Love the fact Vermithor immediately shows up when Rhaenyra calls for him. He could've just ignored her call and remained where he was and that would've made things incredibly awkward for her infront of all the dragonseeds.
Yooo. That dohaeras sent chills down my spine... Even Vermithor was like OK mama, Imma be cool.
Dragon keepers: Pompous ritual chanting
Rhaenyra: Kitty, kitty, kitty!
it’s the princess, 😅 now the queen 😈 👑 🐉
“Oh who’s a good boy! Oh who’s a good boy!”
She summoned and calmed Vermithor like it was a unruly german shepherd😂
She first called him calmly then sensed Vermithor restless and sensed he needed firm and commanding presence hence the 2nd ‘calm down’ order. Rhaenyra got the dragons trust and attention after that. I love it.
I think Hugh actually took notes when Rhaenyra pacified Vermithor. He did almost the same thing, just without the High Valyrian; first called Vermithor's attention, then stood before him without showing fear, and when Vermithor did his intimidation display up close Hugh was not having it and basically told Vermithor "shut up and let me drive", which is close enough to "Serve".
I would watch it for hours... It's absolutely AMAZING!
Vermithor looks so majestic.
Coolest "Dohaeris" in the whole series 😎❤️🔥
Rhynaera could have used a riderless Vermithor like Dany did with her dragons but the risk of Vermithor bonding with someone that doesn't serve her is too great. That's why its important that the rider serves Rhynaera, which is also why she got angry at Adam and seasmoke until she saw him bend the knee. Dany never had to worry about this because she was the only Targaryen left and bastards were extremely rare or had very diminished blood.
Wouldn't work, dany raised them like her kids since they hatched, Vermithor doesn't have the same bond.
OHH you are in for a treat on future seasons.
@@ecc3147 i think everyone knows it at this point
No, Vermithor wouldn't obey her that much. He respects her, knows she is a dragonrider, that is why he stayed calm, but he is not bonded to her.
@@fxj___ You'll be surprised how many people don't. They love the show but have no idea about the story on the books.
She just did amazing job here ❤
the most beautiful rendition of the targaryen thems
“Who among you will be first” 💥
That definitely won’t be me 🤣🤣
Rhaenyra’s High Valyrian is sooooo good. Could listen to her command dragons all day
She killed this scene love how she pronounces Thors name and her Valyrian sounds so on point, the moment she touched Thor and they both closed their eyes instantly connecting so dope
I know the Targaryen usually bonded with a dragon that they raised themselves, as it creates a stronger bond between the rider and the dragon.
But this scene alone makes me think that Rhaenyra could have bonded with Vermithor if she didn't have Syrax as her dragon.
I think she would have become a fearsome warrior if she did ride Vermithor.
this scene was stupid he should eat her but suddenly Bronze Fury, is calm ? because of what she put hand on him ? she is not his rider even Tagaryens can be eaten by touching other dragon he should growl at her and not let her close, it is fun service at it best .
@@queenxx1690 dragons are smart and they know faces. He knows she rides a dragon and he likely knew her since birth. Why would he harm her?
@@queenxx1690there's a theory that vermithor and silverwings are syrax's parents. Perhaps vermithor recognized his daughter's rider, thus he's more compliant with Rhaenyra than anyone
@@laphonz invalid argument. the dance of dragons is between a lot of dragons who know eachother and some of the other riders. by that logic, they would refuse to attack each other.
She is almost full blooded Targaryen. They are much more likely to be accepted by dragons. Plus she has a ton of experience with dragons. Like a horseman can calm a wild horse because he understands them.
The way she sounds with this "dohaeris" is kinda impressive, godamn
Vermithor: "hey hey one all you can eat buffet".
Silverwing: "Yay you will do".
The way she said “dohaeris” made me feel a tingle in my stomach
It’s cool how the rightful heir dominates a beast. Screw the dragon keepers, she got this! Nobody nor even Daemon could calm it. If Rhynaera hasn’t got a dragon yet she could claim Vermithor
But he did calm it at the end of season 1
1:35 so cute❤
His dragon nostrils are so big, our human heads would be like dragon boogers 😂. Damn he’s one huge dragon! That scene was everything. The queen standing tall and proud, with the Bronze Fury behind her. What a statement 🔥🔥🔥💪
I could listen to her speak to dragons all day
Emma acted the hell out of this scene!
What we heard Rhaenyra say: “Come forward Vermithor.”
What Vermithor heard: “Vermithor, your buffet is here!”
😂
I still don't understand why Rhaenyra didn't try to find a rider for Silverwing first, as a calmer and friendlier dragon, and immediately released the bronze psychopath. lol
Priority. Vermithor is the largest dragon on Dragon stone and the 2nd biggest dragon behind Vhagar, so they wanted a rider for Vermithor because that would mean they would have a weapon against Vhagar right away. And then Silverwing would be next, after the claiming of Vermithor.
The problem with that is Vermithor nearly killed Ulf, but Silverwing wouldn’t have killed Hugh. If Ulf hadn’t escaped she’d be stuck with only one
Probably anyone left would be worthy by default. Vermithor made sure of it. 😂
@@vegforlife Silverwing refused a few riders in the books, she just didn't kill them. She had a much different preference than Vermithor. The blacks also seemed to preselect the candidates a bit too and send them to the dragon they thought might be the best match. No point sending Vermithor the timid washerwomen, but the stong, stoic blacksmith is worth a shot. Even a dwarf court jester made an attempt with Silverwing before Ulf
We need the one that will win the battle first
What A Scene! I don't Know How Much Time I saw This Scene Repeatedly. Specially Rhaanryera's High Valariyan. Totally Badass.
"Laqiri, Dohairais " & Bonding After Closing their Eyes. Pleasant for My Eyes.
Oscar/Emmy For the Sound Team. Each Sound is different from Other Dragon & They made it like Real Creature.
She’s the great grand daughter of Jaehaerys the Conciliator, Vermithors last rider. He can sense it 😊. Same reason he accepted Hugh.
The actress is perfect.
Emma's High Valyrian is the best
This scene gave me goosebumps!
Went she said “dohaerás” i went straight to clean my room….
His stomps, his entrance, his roar! His coos! Her demeanor, her high Valariyan, her confidence, her commanding tone!! The look of fear and amazement they all had! Everything that made this scene incredible!!! 🐉🟤🔥
OMG the force behind that "Dohaeris", Rhaenyra is a true dragon Queen 👑🐉
I heard in the book, each bastard is sent one by one, I'm so glad they did it this way instead.
That look that she gave Vermithor was priceless. Like a look of mutual respect and recognition.
Vermithor was kinda on board to bond with Rhaenyra lmao
Dragon riders can only bind with one dragon. Dragons with riders cannot be ridden by someone else.
No, he wasn't. She summoned him, he came. Simple
@@SUDA13190 not as simple as the fact that my comment was a joke it seems
I don't think so. Dragons are very intelligent creatures and understand high valyirian to a degree. Rhaenyra simply summoned him and he answered. I don't think Vermithor was in the market for a new rider.
Absolutely wild how people just want to be smartasses so badly they don't even recognise a joke lol "on board" as in "damn girl, if you weren't taken already we could be great together" 😂 and yes, they would be
Oh yeah that look to Vermithor, say's like. I got you TREATS👌
Even I closed my mouth when she said doheiras.
Such an amazing scene. The way high valyrian rolls off her tongue and the way that Vermithor listens and respects her... AEGON COULD NEVAHHH 🔥🔥🔥
vermithor the second largest dragon in westeros after vhagar
Still like 1/3rd smaller too
3rd, Cannibal exists.
@@BigDaddyJones420Cannibal isnt bigger than vermithor
@causticgastrap2835 He's smaller but not that much smaller. He actually grows faster than vhagar and he's 90 years younger and nearly her size. If he reached vhagars age he would have grown bigger than she did
2:36
Rhaenyra: “Thanks for this. I look so badass right now.”
“Serve” 💥…
Was the best convincing word
She said as a Queen
Even her facial expression and confidence was for once believable 😊
Dragon bonding is truly spiritual to Targaryens. The closing of the eyes mirroring the dragon. Everything about this scene is epic
"do not show fear" is the key
Viserys would be so proud. Her grace looked sooo cool summoning a dragon like that.
Has viserys famously said the biggest lie and illusions is that we control the dragons
Have to say at the start rhaenyra is proving that illusion well
The slow gurgling sound that the dragon makes is wonderful sound design. The dragon is so massive, even its vocal chords take time to move. It's little things like that which enhance immersion.
