Interestingly, Alys may have had Maegor's child. As his 3rd wife admitted to poisoning the other wives, so it may not have been a bastard.
If the child was deformed it was probably a Targaryen.
But how if the wife wasnt related? on the pic it looked more like roadkill dragon baby so maybe some people out of family blood was to weak to just make it work with the dragon blood and thats why Targaryens deicded to do it between thesmelfs
@@Vida7354 The Targaryens aren´t superhumans. Inbreeding, defective gens or bloodmagic are probably the cause of Targaryens deformity
@@Vida7354maegor himself was the product of incest. Incest leads to deformed babies even if the parents arent related
@@Vida7354 even if the baby isn't a complete Targaryen and has a new gene pool introduced, they still are severely inbred because of their father's genes, the mother's gene pool can only do so much, so Maegor's genes were clearly stronger, but also corrupted, so Alys not being a Targaryen wouldn't negate a possibility of a stillborn that looks like most Targ kids, if anything its more obvious its a Targaryen since their family is known for dragon-like stillborns.
@@quincyquincy4764in this case the aforementioned third wife had "posioned" the child with sorcery. successive children of maegor, even from those not related to the targaryens, were similat.
What makes it even more screwed is this was all cooked up by his 3rd wife who more than likely poisoned or used dark magic on Alys to cause the miscarriage
She admits this later to having poisoned the pregnant Alys. Not to cause the miscarriage but to create the twisted creature in the first place.
@@smaugkat well, she admits it, but the second wife and her family are already dead🤷
@@smaugkat does she ever get punished?
@@itznptime806 Iirc Maegor kills her on spot by choking her to death
@@smaugkatshe only admitted it to avoid getting tortured by maegor..
It was more than likely, she suspected ,lord harroway was trying to pin the miscarriage on her .
Since she was a witch but she was faster.
the crazy part is one of maegor’s wives, tyanna of the tower who was said to be a sorceress, admitted to poisoning her sister wives who were pregnant. so in actuality house harroway and poor alys harroway suffered for no reason
Just a correction. None of Maegor's wives were his sisters. The closest was Rhaena who was his niece. The others were from different houses.
@@johndinobuff583 yes. by sister wives, i meant the relation between maegor’s wives with each other.
Tyanna of Pentos only admitted to that to avoid being tortured by Maegor..
And to push him into killing her on the spot..
Also Lord Harroway was mostly likely trying to pin the miscarriages on her anyway because she was a witch.
So she acted fast..
@@yazzsoltan7213then again, why was Alys given to her so that she could torture her for two weeks before she died? I highly doubt that she was innocent.
@@yazzsoltan7213You're forgetting that she also said she had poisoned another wife who was pregnant at the time and said that she too would miscarriage which in fact did happen. So, I think she was pretty guilty tbh
Poor lady, she lost her baby for no fault of her own and her entire family got killed for it and she was tortured to death for it.
Actually megor 3wife posined her thats why she lost the baby its even worse than u think
@@Daniel-ug4pu sounds like standard got intrigue tbh it's cruel sure but imagine being a lesser wife from a King what would you do to rise? First of all play with a fear every man has (your wife cheated and sired a bastard) only the women could be sure this kind is hers for 100% in this time period as a man you had no guarantee for that especially when you are rich or royal (bastards can be made kings) so in theory if your husband is not fertile you can cheat on him claim that's this is his son aaaaaand baaaaam bastard on the throne (rise of a mighty house) security of your position as queen etc....
That's why I understand why number 3 wanted to see number 2 fall
@colshotlp9692 I think number 3 was just jealous she couldn't have kids with him.
@@jeffreysamson5938 well even then in the end there are only 5 so she is number 2 🤔
Idk why she told him it wasn’t his tho she should’ve known how that crazy mf was gonna react
Tiktokkers would put sigma male music over this
We don't recognize such acts as Sigma male characteristics. Let that be known
😂

Maegor The Cruel is just Henry VIII but married to three wives at once and with no living children all together. He even killed two (maybe three but there is no proof), "divorced" two (more like Rhaena was one to divorce him but whatever), had one die at childbirth and one outlive him. His queens also have some similarities to Henry's wives, especially Ceryse Hightower and Catherine of Aragon.
Maegor's more comparable to Ivan the Terrible. The Henry VIII comparison is pretty superficial; he was a much more competent King than most people think.
@@matthewhart9610 I was mostly referring to the parallels between him and Henry when it comes to wives since that was the main focus of the clip. Ivan had successfully beaten both of them in number of women he married (wasn't it like 8-9 of them?) and as far as we know didn't kill any of them. If I remember correctly, some ended up in monasteries, one was punished to live in some sort of prison for cheating, death of like 2-3 of them only made him more afraid he is being betrayed and for one there are suspicions she killed her but 0 proof. And, to top it all, some of them might have not even existed at all and are just product of folklore
It is definitely similar, only children that survived was his daughters and most wedlock children. Because King Henry was known having multiple affairs with different women even when he was married to each wife.
It is said that maegors marriages were based off on the tudors era meaning Henry
It was also confirmed
I've said it before Maegor wasn't doing what was necessary to save the Targaryen line, Aegon the Uncrowned who he murdered was said to be just like his grandfather Aegon the Conquerer and the weak king Aenys he didn't even oppose. He was just crazy and power hungry. Any good that came of his reign like the Red Keep and Maegors Holdfast were happy accidents.
It was necessary. He paved the way for Jahaerys's peaceful reign.
@@sxperbia not really. The realm was in tatters and a lot of Jaehaerys reign wasn't peaceful, he fought several wars. Jaehaerys brought peace not Maegor. The only good thing he did was put down the faith militant rebellion which Aegon was going to do anyway since they attacked him and his wife. Maegor didn't act out of honor or to protect the Targaryen lineage, he acted out of self interest and was destroying the kingdom, hence why his own small council betrayed him to Jaehaerys.
@@connordorman117 aegon the uncrowded wouldn't have beaten the faith milatent the only reason he was able to claim quicksilver was because maegor took over , he was also vary inexperienced in war it's vary unlikely he would have solved the problem, I think maegor at first was doing what he thought was best for his house but the power got to his head.
@@thatoneblackdude3333 maegor could've ended the faith militants by helping aegon the uncrowned also lol but he didnt.
@@avinashkandru3316 sure but what does maegor gain from supporting aegon? He has no Dragon and he's shown no proof that he'd be an improvement to anyes, his marriage is the entire reason for the uprising in the first place it makes more since for maegor to take matters into his own hands , tho I do think it would have been better if he choose to be regent instead of king it makes logical since for him to take the throne rather thrn surrender it to a boy who's never gone to war.
Maegor woke up and really chose violent or chaotic options. He’s the reason why everyone takes the Targaryen/Valyrian coin flip seriously
That’s Baelor the “blessed”
@@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195 baelor wasn't that violent though. He was indeed insane nonetheless
@@hypatiakovalevskayasklodow9195
Baelor was slightly insane but in a good way, not in a « i will kill yo je entire family because of a unfounded rumour » kind of way.
@@KalashVodka175Baelor was just really into intermittent fasting and seman retention. That Howard Hughes sort of mad.
@@maxi1ificationatleast baelor connected dorne with the seven kingdoms
The only good thing Maegor did was eliminating the faith militants. Everything else about him is insane.
He didn’t even accomplish that. There were still thousands of them across the realm, with an entire army camped outside of Oldtown by the time he died.
Tbh by margor’s time the faith militant became the « good guys » compared to the King
@@MorallyDubiousFrog I understand that . But if it wasn't for him (as much as I hate saying that) they would've turned into a power house even worst than the sparrow and his minions. Jaehaerys rule would've been challenged and his marriage to Alysanne would've been ignored similar to his brother Aegon the uncrowned.
@@KalashVodka175 I find it hard to see them as the good guys in any scenario tbh . Their refusal to acknowledge Aegon as king is the reason Maegor made it to the throne in the first place .
@@merykhan97 The Faith was already a powerhouse way beyond the Sparrows of later years. If Maegor had declared for Aegon and put down the faith in his name, then he can still defend Hoise Targaryen without usurping the throne and becoming a kin slayer.
Basically Maegor was Henry Vlll.
can you explain please?
@@ronanchristiana.belleza9270 He ry Vlll had a bunch of wives and killed some of them. He would also destroy the families of people who angered him.
@@robpolaris5002 Which Country that he ruled?
@@ronanchristiana.belleza9270 Britain
@@ronanchristiana.belleza9270 well mostly england
It was said in the book fire and blood that Maegor found both his wife and her father in the act after tourturing 20 men who finally admitting to the crime. Even worse he murdered an entire town too no just the people with Harroway blood, he killed every single person in the town they ruled over and then gave the town over to a different house
False confession though.
Learn to use the comma, it's handy.
Maegor didn’t catch his wife in bed with her father. His other wife Tyanna claimed this happened and then tortured people into agreeing with her.
@@MorallyDubiousFrog my mistake I didn’t mean to say she caught them in bed together I meant like in the act of trying to do the crime
@@Krios23bro Except that was the crime Tyanna accused Alys of. She claimed Alys slept with her father and other men in order to get pregnant.
In reality, Alys didn’t do anything. Tyanna poisoned her to kill the baby and then tortured men into claiming they slept with Alys.
Aaaaah, GRRM's subtle way of pissing over Henry VIII love it.❤
"It's just a prank, bro."
The prank:
Henry VIII of Westeros
With some Ivan the Terrible sprinkles on top.
Maegor certainly earned his moniker 'the Cruel'.
He’s basically Henry the 8th
And you thought the
Mad king was bad. Maegors the father of madness
mad king was still bad maegor was cruel not mad .
Maegor was far better than aerys.
Maegor is great warrior unlike arys. But yes maegor is cruel mandness king
Targshills be like "yay king Slay!"

@@ajarofmayonnaise3250nah, yall targsimps are crazy
Why do i get the feeling most of the Maegor simps are just projecting abusive daddy issue they refuse to acknowledge.
This guy makes the Mad King look like a merciful dude.
I just gotta say, I look forward to your uploads. Your voice & narration just makes it that much more better 😊
He was live in Australia that makes his Eng better
Why are there a strangely high amount of Australian ASOIAF RUclipsrs
@@Thereisanalienpresenceonearth because beside US & Germany the other bigest Asioaf Fandom was in Australia
@@darellmawitjere why is that
@@Thereisanalienpresenceonearth Still became mystery until this day. 😀
If Daemon became king, it is obvious he would never be cruel like Maegor.
Maegor was Absolute Evil. Daemon doesn't come close
Had no children too
Thank God, can you imagine what a monster of a father he would have been?
The only way this could be more obvious is if there names were Henry and Ann.
I’ve always found it interesting that Westeros punishes pretty much anyone for being one extreme or the other, you’re either completely honorable like ned and you get your head chopped off for it, or you’re as cruel as Maegor the cruel and you just live a terrible life till you die lol.
But Maegor’s life must’ve been absolutely terrible regardless if he was actually king or not. Everyone hated him for how ruthless he was, he only gave birth to deformed or just still birthed children, he mercilessly murdered people and didn’t give a shit, and then he just died on the throne presumably killed by it but more likely killed by one of the many many many lords who likely hated his guts.
You know the wives were on that moon tea and the maesters were sabotaging births as well.
Maesters had nothing to do with it. His third wife, Tyanna, was poisoning the wives when they got pregnant.
poor alys!!! my heart breaks for her 💔
Maegor series would be brutal and I'm here for it. Man was built different.
I believe that Maegor character is based on Henry Viii
Dude needs his own show
Maegor Targaryen had that dawg in him
Why is GOT lore more interesting than real life history

House of the Dragon is the prequel 😂
@@frik_tano we need a PRE-prequel
@@frik_tanoneed a aegon conquests and sons of the dragons show
@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw need a aegon conquests and sons of the dragons show
It would’ve made more sense starting with Aenar Targaryen. The beginning when they left the Doom of Valyria with his sister Daenys the dreamer.
The show writers with House of the dragon has omitted too much like the Red Kraken and Racallio Ryndoon. Even craghas Drayhar, the crab feeder was shown to us like he was some creature. Craghas was a prince in black fine armour, whilst Daemon did kill him as we see- the battle wages on for years.
Holy shit… maegor was even more brutal than I thought.
I’m actually proud to say I’ve read about this one in the source material! I love this world and these videos are awesome when reading through all the events of this story 😂😂🤙🏻
GRRM inspiration for Maegor definitely came from King Henry VIII

Crazy how Aegon the Conqueror could produce such a child
I mean this is basically what Robert would’ve done if he found out about Cersei and Jaime so I don’t get why maegor is looked at so bad basically any king would do that if they thought or found out the queen cheated
Hbo should do a show for this guy and turn him into the actual villain that wins at the end
He…he doesn’t win in the end. He’s killed during the beginning of a civil war to put his nephew on the throne

What's with GRRM and monstrous babies?
Have a look at real life history and there’s a lot of them too. Humans can do evil things if you give them power with little consequence.
Its the result of incest and blood magic. Most times it is ok but sometimes things go haywire.
Targs ain't right I tell you, inhuman abominations wrapped in human skin manipulated by blood magic. Those monstrous babies were the result of failed rituals. Failed to cover up their true forms!
No I'm not wearing a tinfoil hat, nor am I from Oldtown. Why do you ask?
He's a fan of Lovecraft.
I’m so thrilled with the winning deck: for one, I had literally no idea it was coming. For two, hexdrinker and tabernacle are two of my favorite cards outside of 3 card blind
So he was like Henry VIII…but turned up to 11! 😱
This is why the maisters got rid of the dragons, no one should have that type of uncontested power.
The mad king tried those types of shenanigans with no dragons, and he quickly found out....
Then here comes daenerys trying to fk it all up again.
She lost her child due to Tyanna. Tyanna confessed after that she was poisoning Aly's child in the womb. S
This is why people were afraid of Daemon getting anywhere near the throne. The Dance Daemon not Blackfyre just in case anyone gets confused
Maegor: he was a wise man who did what was needed to ensure house Targaryen’s rule
Also Maegor: slaughtered whole families based on hearsay
Just like Henry VIII, disgusting
Oh so he is Henry VIII
He had six wives and wanted a son and was a terrible husband. Who does that sound like.
… Henry VIII
Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived! I'm Henry VIII I had six sorry wives, some might say I ruined their lives.
@@ignacio4159 throw-away, destroy, let go, throw away, destroy, recycle. Yeah, a very nice king/husband, was he.

nice little story about the importance of honesty.

یک سوال با مرگ میگور خط خونی وسینیا هم ازبین رفت
Sheeeesh. I've heard of the name but never knew the story. Ay yi yi.
I can respect this!
If anyone is wondering his inspiration came from King Henry of France.
After that King Maegor lotery and made Survival game for New seat of Harrenhall & Lord Towers win that game. but sadly the lord became coma and his sickly son name Maegor Tower take the seat until his dead after his illnes wipeout all House Towers member.
I like the theory that Maegor's kids were all deformed and stillborn because he died at his Trial by Seven, Tyanna resurrected him with R'hllori magic (a la Thoros and Lady Stoneheart), and they came out stillborn and deformed as a side effect of the blood magic combined with their undead Targaryen father (a "dead things don't make new life" type deal)
I am also an enjoyer of the Maegor is fire Wight theory
No, Tyanna was poisoning into the pregnancies.
It makes sense.
It’s directly states that Tyanna was poisoning the wives to sabotage their pregnancies.
It’s giving Henry the 8th 🌚
Tyanna was really the one at fault here. Maegor was just stupid enough to believe her.
I like this guy
Nice guy
This reminds me of Henry and Anne Boleyn
A show about this guy would be brutal and hard to watch…

Where do you get all this info? Like it's on a book or something? I'm curious cause it's really interesting and cool, hope anyone can tell me
Fire & Blood (definitely worth reading)
- Told from the perspectives of several Maesters, Septons and sometimes eyewitness accounts
- Covers a very brief history of; House Targaryen and Valyria before the Doom, followed afterwards by the "Century of Blood" 102-2 BC, until it goes in depth about Aegon the Dragon and his sisters and how they conquered the realm
- From there it covers the Reign of Aegon the Conqueror (including his wars with Dorne) all the way to the 7th Targaryen King Aegon III's 16th nameday, which I believe occurs in the year 150 AC
- There's also "Rise of the Dragon" which is basically an abbreviated version of F&B, but with colored illustrations
@Brownie Bear thank you, I really appreciate it :)
@@rodrigopena6897 You're welcome :)
DAMN!!
My man sounds like a simp , one word from a women and he kills an entire blood line 😭🤦♂️😂
He was a bad guy, but he saved the family from having to battle the faith for a long time
No he didn’t. His family was still battling the faith after he died. Jaehaerys had to deal with an army of Poor Fellows outside Old Town and had to negotiate peace with Joffrey Doggart.
Why does everyone give him the credit for this? Any targ can fly a dragon and set faith militant on fire. All that did was foster resentment and turn the small folk against them.
It was Jaehaerys who finally established a lasting peace with the faith by pardoning the faith militant and redefining religious doctrine.
@@thedemonhater7748 In a way though he did. The faith were more willing to compromise with Jaeharys because they saw him as reasonable as compared to Maegor and they suffered many losses. If Maegor wasn’t as cruel as he was, I doubt they would be that easily satisfied with letting Jaeharys do his sister.
