Harrenhall is like one of those castles that you can technically buy for 1 dollar but they expect you to restore and maintain it so you end up millions in debt
@@LoudaroundLincolnThe Lord of Harrenhal is the guy who killed the past and potential Lords of Harrenhal and is now setting a wikifeet gallery on Kings' Landing
@thebonfireofgains if the cripple wants his castle, all he has to do is raise an army and go and take it back. Where I'm from you only call something yours so long as you can keep it.
**Daemon captured Harrenhal without conflict by landing Caraxes on top of Kingspyre Tower** Historians: What an amazing show of force, they literally gave up Harrenhal without a fight because of Daemon and Caraxes. Truly the might of the dragons were outmatched. Simon Strong: Nah, fam, we couldn't even afford a nice dinner, we poor.
Kinda makes me wonder. How did Aegon treat with these kings, really. Obviously some he melted but others have stories where he just "walked up". How many of those are real. Or is Daemon's style just an example of how unfit he is for politics. He's running around like Jason Bourne while the threat of a thousand deaths flies overhead. He should just be able to say hello, like in some of the Aegon stories. Or maybe thats naivety.

@michaelyohanes2782 because, like Harrenhal, most of Elden's structures are abandoned ruins, and that's literally what Harrenhal is, not to mention the dark atmosphere that the place gives, with a lone knight in beautiful armor and a sword held in two hands, and it's worth mentioning both works were created in the story part by GRRM, and in Elden there are references to Game Of Thrones so... why not the other way around?
@@timliebhauser Bruh ... it's not "infiltration" in any sense, technical or not. Also you infiltrate something to (maybe) conquer it, not the other way round lol. Once you've conquered it, question of infiltration doesn't arise. It's an oxymoron. How can you "infiltrate" something you've already conquered?
@@tiffles3890 That’s what I was trying to say mainly, sorry. That he was infiltrating it by force and then being prepared to fight and attempt to conquer it successfully, one bringing on the other.
Harrenhal is so exceptionally portrayed, it feels so coated in dark fantasy, almost feels like Daemon stepped into a portal and found himself in Dark Souls.
0:00-0:48 That's another absolute brilliant scene! THE ROGUE PRINCE & CARAXES ON TALLEST TOWER OF HARRENHALL LIKE HIS ANCESTOR A CENTURY+ AGO,AEGON TARGARYEN,FTW !
Harrenhall was outrageously large and outrageously damaged after Aegon destroyed it. It was far too expensive and required too many men to defend it let alone repair it
Through its history many have set out intending to repair it. Then repair becomes maintain, then abandoning some sections of the castle, then abandoning most of the castle, then as your entire line dies out around you, each house realises that the tales that the place is cursed are true.
No kidding, there is a Witcher/GoT crossover fanfic called "Wayward Wolf" where Geralt exorcises Harrenhall with the help of a young Jaime, Pycelle, Arthur Dayne, and Oswell Whent (it takes place before Rebert's Rebellion). It's ironically written quite well lol
That part where daemon just stares into the courtyard for a bit while we hear what sounds like whaling or screaming. Y’all think it could be the spirits of those burned during balerions assault? Harrenhal being haunted and all
Daemon infiltrating harrenhal was like watching a live action Dark Souls with a high level character with good armor and a quality build walking through undead asylum
Dæmon wanted a fight or a trap so bad only to be met by a nice grandpa who offered him peas. Just give this man a war to fight already and simon strong a decent castle - he deserves better.
Strong is a wealthy house but they do not have the means to refurbish Harrenhal, very few if any houses do since it's one of the largest holdings in Westeros. When Tywin takes it over in GOT it's in a similar state of disrepair
People don't understand that Daemon was one of the best assets to have on either side and one could argue he was one of the most important and vital people to have on either side because he was one of the most experienced leaders and the best fighter on either side.
Showing Harrenhal in its prime would *DEVOUR* the entire budjet of whatever would-be show about that! 💀 Just kidding. But yeah, seeing Harrenhal in its former glory would've been a treat.
The showrunners wanted to imitate the success of GoT as much as possible so they chose a story with a female lead as queen. Judging how most fans side with the blacks, they were onto something.
@@schoolofgrowthhacking They actually chose a different G.O.T. prequel starring Naomi Watts, but it didn't work out. It was GRRM who wanted them to do a story about The Dance Of Dragons.

It has been tormenting me who this actor is and I finally just figured out this is the same guy who plays Lavrentiy Beria in "The Death of Stalin". He was magnificent in that.
this was like two weeks after viserys died, westeros was still living in peace. war hasn’t started yet and also killing a child isn’t enough action for you?

The deadliest kind.
its a strategic position, but its expensive to maintain.

@@JediNiyte my media studies A-level coming through
I like how in contrasts with the humor of coming into the inhabited area and just seeing a bunch of dudes nonchalantly eating dinner.
Venison, Black Cabbage, Peas, Berries.
Them's good eats.
Daemon is suspicious of the peas that literally everyone is eating, but later gulps down a sexy witch potion for no good reason.
She's a sexy witch, that's a good reason enough.
Narcissistic and egomaniac that is Daemon 😂.

This is such a badass scene, just one guy stalking the corridors after landing his dragon but its shot so well and matt smith is a g
This is scene is straight out of dark souls
I bet some of the actors tempted to yell out NAZGUL!! 😂
Daemon spent the entire time walking through Harrenhal like 'where the seven hells is everybody?!''
This entire scene of Daemon going through Harrenhal made me think of the asylum in Dark Souls 1.
🌹Great🐉move in The Game of Thrones.

Yes, it just wouldn’t be infiltrated in the form of an ambush

Why did no one ever REPAIR harrenhall the castle is a DUMP
Everyone who ever tries dies harenhall is cursed
Because it would take too much time and money.

Apparently so 😂
And so it is.
Harrenhall need to hire a professional, they need Witcher to exorcist this haunted castle.

And thus begins Daemon's 6 episode vacation in harrenhal.
Dragons are bombers and fighter jets combined.
This scene had me rolling 🤣
How to inflitratrate a castle 101. Don't hold your sword like a hand gun when moving
Sad seeing what house Strong was reduced to.
Strong is a wealthy house but they do not have the means to refurbish Harrenhal, very few if any houses do since it's one of the largest holdings in Westeros. When Tywin takes it over in GOT it's in a similar state of disrepair
Everyone knows Harrenhall and Dragons dont go well together
Simon chose wisely.

Why do many always start with that? Hahaha
Bro made it look so easy!
Oh Rhaenyra if only you had a few more brain cells! 🤦♂️
Why u blame it's too to blame her
This is why we need Aegon the Conqueror show. To show what happened to harrenhal during the Conquest.

So- no one else is going to mention how Daemon just sort of spawned-in at the doorway?
It seemingly works similar to Overwatch or World Of Warcraft. You can capture the base by standing their for 30 seconds and it's yours.
I think they got inspired by the Witcher hunting bruxa scene
Well that was easy
If this were more realistic, Daemon would have faced 20 soldiers and be killed, removing a major threat from the war.
