In 3:00 there's a small mistake bro, Hugh is not the bastard brother of Viserys and Daemon, i.e. the bastard of Baelon Targaryen. He is actually the son of princess Saerra Targaryen who ran away from the family to Lys to a pleasure house who is the sister to Baelon and Aemon Targaryen (Rhaenys' father) and King Jahaerys' daughter. This also makes Hugh the grandson of his, however not through his son's, but through his daughter Saerra. This is comfirmed in the show as Hugh explains his lineage to his wife and he refers to his mother while she said to Hugh, that he is no different than her brother's sons, Viserys and Daemon.
@@mmeade9402 most probably Saerra's son. Because in FnB, she is actually described as someone who has flings with many men, including some of the knights, and flees to a pleasure house in Lys. It doesn't make any sense to portray anyone other than Saerra as mother of Hugh in the show as the easter egg moment for book readers would ruin.
Hugh is the son Saera Targaryen. She is Baelon's sister. Ulf on the other hand is Baelon's bastard son. As per the show. Also, sept of Baelor wasn't an establishment at this point of the time. It was built roughly 30/35 years after the Dance.
She certainly the best travel dragon I think. Aylsanne basically took her on tour across Westeros especially when Jahaerys's was to busy or grumpy to go on royal tours. If ever there were a dragon you could explore the world on and have a constant companion it would be her.
I found it interesting that Silverwing was still laying eggs. Her and Vermithor were still mating and she probably laid several clutches of eggs. This leads me to believe that after the dance, several dozens of eggs still exist somewhere and the future revival of the dragon species is still possible. It’s not just Danys eggs.
Aegon III put eggs in all of his grandchildren's craddles , Vizzy II too probably too in his kid's.... they just didn't hatch . Aerion Brighflame had a silver-golden dragon egg . Aegon V had multiple eggs for his familly 120 years after the Dance but those also didn't hatch
@@realBatman-89 Yes, but as Dragon's hatch due to blood magic, I think provided a person in the GOT universe knows enough about magic and sacrifices, they can hatch eggs if they find any. I am sure many dragons in the past roamed around and laid multiple clutches of eggs. It's possible many didn't hatch. I just wish that Martin, the author of the book, had clearly explained why Dragons used to hatch easily in the past and why they went suddenly extinct? Perhaps Dragons generate some form of magic and it requires a certain % of dragons to be alive for the rest to survive, kind of like a magic balance???
@@aswinastro I pretty sure there does need to be a certain amount of living dragons. Dany only hatch the three because of a miracle of luck and timing. Everyone's magic got stronger after they hatched.
It's super fascinating that Vermithor is so close to Vhagars size. Vhagar is described as almost as large as Balerion was during Aegons conquest. Keep in mind that Vhagar was nearly 200 years old when she was this size and Balerion was a but over 100 years old. Obviously that implies that Balerion was twice her size once he died which is insane but nevertheless since Vermithor is so close to Vhagar despite being half her age implies that Vermithor could have Rivalled Balerions full size if he lived long enough. I might be missing something but it is pretty clear that Vermithor is huge for his age
His size might be due to being on dragonstone, Look at Dreamfyre she's older than Vermithor but is smaller The Dragon Pit might stunt their growth but the dragonpit doesn't Maybe
@@hexbug9737 could be. I think it may be related to how much magic is present around the dragon. Like we know balerion was born during the time when valyria was around and he was the biggest targaryen dragon ever and Drogon, Rhaegal and Viserion grew pretty fast and we know magic was returning once they were born. So maybe dragon size is related to how much magic is present? It's possible
While dragons continue to grow until they die, it seems that the growth slows once they reach a certain size or age. So they remain relatively the same size for quite a while. It could also be that Vhager and Belarion had riders more frequently. Vhager was riderless for about twenty years after Visenya's death, but she rode him frequently and Balarion rarely went unclaimed for long after one of his riders died. Perhaps the more frequently a dragon has a rider and is flown, the more it eats and grows. Vermithor and Silverwing are described as sleeping most of the time while riderless. It's also possible that the dragons that lair in the volcanic caverns on Dragonstone grow larger due to the heat while those kept for long periods in the Dragon Pit in King's Landing don't grow as large or as quickly.
What's amazing is that these two dragons belonged to Rhaenyra's grandparents: Alysanne and Jaehaerys Targaryen. I'm hoping the new riders don't betray someone in television. That's all I'll say.
Syrax isn’t smaller than Seasmoke, she looks smaller because she has shorter legs than the rest of the dragons. If you look closely she has wing membranes up to her hip which is different from the rest of the dragons.
Syrax is tiny. Sunfyre too has the same wing design that extends to his hips and for sure he's larger than Syrax in spite of him being like a decade younger.
@@alicerat6294no Sunfyre is longer and has more overall muscle mass if you compare their looks . Sunny's neck , skull , chest , wings look a lot stronger
@@metecanksaoglu2743 nah Vermithor is definitely the offspring of Balerion and Vhagar, in the books Vhagar is also bronze and Quicksilver would probably be too small to breed with Balerion. Silverwing might’ve hatched from an egg of Meraxes that just took longer to hatch.
@@CobraShadowz Yes you are right it's been confirmed that Vermithor is from Vhagar's batch with Balerion that's why he look like a hybrid between the two, Vhagar's neck but more of a T-rex style head like Balerion with his horns, he's a perfect mix and so imposingly terrifying.
For some reason Syrax's size doesn't seem to have changed since the series premier, and there were many years of time jump since, she should have gotten much bigger.
They made Syrax too big in Season 1 during the Teen Rhaenyra episodes, that’s why the sense of confusion is there Syrax right now is right at the size she should be which is give or take half the size of Caraxes
Yes it's been confirmed, Vermithor is from Vhagar's batch with Balerion, Vermithor is their son hence his hybrid look resembling Vhagar's neck but a more T-rex type of head like Balerion with the horns, he's perfect mix of the two.
@@shahinm02yeah Vermithor and Silverwing are their combination but Dreamfyre inherited all of Balerion's looks . Sheepstealer also came from that clutch , she probably looks like Vermithor and Silverwing too
2:44 Hugh isn’t Baelon's son. He himself told that. Her mother had silver hair and worked in a brothel. She used to tell him, "you are no different than my brother's sons, Viserys and Daemon." That is the strongest hint of Hugh being the son of Saera Targaryen, the spoiled daughter of Jaeherys the conciliator, who the old king loved very much, but abandoned her due to her nature. Saera later went to Volantis to open her own brothel. Baelon is the father of Ulf though. Ulf also looks (kinda) similar to Viserys, while Hugh carries a strong resemblance of Jaeherys.
Silverwing is my favorite dragon shown on-screen so far. Don't get me wrong, Vermithor is built and angry, but Silverwing seems to nearly match Vermithor's size, she has a gorgeous coloring, her head-shape reminds me of the more "magical" aspects of dragons, and she seems to have a playful (if not mischievous) nature. I need to dive into Silverwing lore. It's gonna be interesting comparing Silverwing to Tessarion.
2:52 It was in fact not implied that Hugh’s father was Baelon, that is ulf. Hugh is implied to be the son of Saera the princess and daughter who Jaehaerys basically exiled.
Man, season 3 is going to be nuts. I know it'll probably be 2 years due to how many dragon sequences there will be, but I hope we don't have to wait that long.
@@flaisnizz370 I know right? I really hope my dad will be able to witness the final season because he's now 81 so I hope he doesn't have to wait until he's 85/86 to watch season 4 lol.
Season 4 will have multiple dragon battles though , atleast 2 or maybe 3 if they show wild dragon's death . Season 3 will only have one and a sea battle at the blockade
From everything I've seen, vermithor is about 80-85% of vhagars size. In a 1v1 Vhagar can't just practically overpower him like she has done to the last few dragons that are half her size or smaller that's why aemond and vhagar retreated from dragonstone. He saw vermithor and silverwing along with syrax and seasmoke. 2 large dragons and 2 medium sized dragons. He knows that if vermithor locks with vhagar it makes her helpless against the other 3 pressing an attack especially because she can't really use her size to overpower this time it's different with other century old dragons who are closer to her size.
The final scene where Aemond was forced to turn Vhagar around and Rhaenyra stared at them gave me chills. I've read the books but I don't remember some of the stuff. Plus they are not always accurate for the show. So all I will say is that I hope Rhaenyra don't pull a Dany. As in, listen to stupid advices to wait and not take Kings Landing as soon as possible. Despite having the clearly more powerful army. Dany could of had the throne by early Season 7, but waited then never got a chance to sit in it. Rhaenyra SHOULD take the throne early Season 3.
The Cannibal, Meraxes, Vaghar and Balerion are bigger than Bronze Fury. He is the fifth largest dragon. Then, Vermithor and Sheepstealer, are bigger than Silverwing. She is the seventh largest dragon. Then, Tessarion, Sunfyre, Grey Ghost, Quicksilver, Syrax, Meleys, Caraxes and Dreamfyre are bigger than Seasmoke, making him the 16th largest dragon.
Yeh these 2 dragons are so cool. Silverwing is my favourite so far. I'm hoping we get to see Dreamfyre in the last episode. Considering Dreamfyre is meant to be the most majestic dragon (according to lore) I'd love to see her design in live action.
I don't think that they will show dreamfyre. Dreamfyre will be shown in the storming of the dragon's pitt I think. He will have no role to play in the upcoming war.
@@MiamiGameHunterRewatch the scene. Hugh says that his mother told him that he was the same as her BROTHER'S BOYS , Viserys and Daemon. He is their cousin, not their brother. His mother is very clearly Saera Targaryen, hence why he said she received special privileges for who she was while working in the pleasure house. It wasn't just that she had silver hair, she was respected above others because she was a Targaryen princess. Saera has bastards in the books too, who make their way to Westeros.
Silverwing the most docile dragon and vermithor perhaps most fierce, were in deep love. They lived together for their entire life. After the end of tessaerion vs seasmoke vs vermithor battle, silverwing came and tried to lift vermithor's wing to help him walk but her lover was already dead. I feel so sad for them.😢
The head and her teeth of Silverwing for some reason reminds me of The Alien Queen from the movie: Aliens from James Cameron. The way it was film the eggs like the sci fi movie and she us resting and hiding on the walls like the Aliens from the Classic movies. Silverwing (The Alien Queen) it has Alien vibes I love this !!!
Does anyone else find that shot at 7:46, Dreamfyre has the scariest dragon face of any dragon I've seen in any series. That is terrifying. Bloody hell.
i will never understand why they didn’t start this show with aegons conquest and follow them up until roberts rebellion. we could of then seen all of the dragons and it would of made much more sense instead of there being 2 random dragons just chilling inside a mountain
Bc the first books written, published ,sold, and read and loved were the Game of thrones Books....and then GRRM stopped writing Winds of Winter the final book, and helped HBO make the show....not sure but I think while he was doing this and I between he wrote the others, Fire and Blood, which deals with This show HOTD....and another book called A Knight of the 7 Kingdoms which follows Dunk and Eggs exploits....again I'm not even sure he has wrote a actual book about the Conquest....just explains it throughout the others...but like they did with Star Wars, and LoTR they start in the middle and head straight into the begining.....😮😳😎🙈🙊🙉😎😳😮
@@mridstaid414 adding to this, "three colonisers mercilessly burning everyone who defies their conquest" is probably not a message anyone would want to make with a show right now lmao
There is a common mistake among people about where dragons are. The Dragonpit is located in Kingslanding and is the large building where Aegon's crowning is placed. It was a series of large caves built into the Hill of Rhaenys started by Maegor Targaryen and completed by Jaehaerys to house the Targaryen's Dragons. On Dragonstone the Mountain and the dragons' caves are called the Dragonmount. This is where Silverwing and Vermithor took up residence. 6:49 The Building is the Dragonpit not the Sept of Baelor which is built by King Baelor years after the Dance of the Dragons.
Pretty sure the dance of dragons is 129 to 131 so where do you get 132 from? Plus the showrunners said they condensed 30 years into 20 for the show....
Also in 6:45, that is not the sept of Baelor in the background as King Baelor 'the blessed' Targaryen is not even born in this timeline. It is probably the sept near the dragonpit which the Targaryens used to visit before the Sept of Baelor was built atop Visenya's hill by king Baelor much later in the timeline.
I find it interesting as well as no one seems to see this little bit is that the dragons choose riders closer in blood relation to their last or first rider
Can't wait to see Dreamfyre in true glory, she's the 2nd oldest dragon after Vhagar, probably third in size after Vermithor and bigger than Silverwing.
Hugh is the only son of Saera Targaryen, the daughter of Jaeherys whom he disowned. The half brother of Viserys and Daemon is Ulf, the new rider of Silverwing.
Went back to my various pictures and could estimate the following (in meters, length-winsgpan): - Vhagar 95 x 205 - Silverwing 53 x 78+ (due to angle, could easily be more than 85) - Meleys 45 x 85 - Caraxes 60 x 77 (low confidence because Caraxes gets less useful shots for reference but i´m positive he grew a lot between seasons) - Seasmoke 36 x ? - Syrax 31 x 52 (assuming winspan to length ratio didn´t change between seasons) - Sunfyre 25 x 35
When ulf is riding Silverwing, Silverwing looks a little too small compared to Ulf's body size. quite similar in size to caraxes considering she's been living outside the dragonpit for the last ~35 years
The dragon team said during season 1 that the dragons flaps of lose skin is because of size not age. Dreamfyre doesn't have those features despite being older than Vermithor because she is smaller.
I always liked Vermithror in the book and now I like him even more he's a Dragon in its prime. Now the only dragon that can turn my attention away from the bronze fury and I hope they show him in the last episode would be.......... The CANNIBAL.
Silverwing is absolutely beautiful. But so sad that my favorite Vermithor and his rider will switch to the Greens. The Bronze Fury should have remained with Rhaenyra flying riderless but protecting her from above.
Vermithor is massive and silverwing and seasmoke are beautiful dragons. I wonder who those baby dragons are that Ulf stumbled upon when he claimed silverwing.
There will be more spin-off series, from what I understand there is already a spin-off series being worked on called "Aegon's Conquest" and we will see Balerion there.
@@jafgamingx5241nah 😂😂 Caraxes had a birth defect so we don't really know what breed he is , I think he was supposed to be like Meleys And Meraxes and Silverwing are 2 different categories , Silverwing is more like Vhagar
Silver wing is so small in size man look at it when it was near ulf its head was almost as similar size as drogon and jon snow scene. They made both vermathor and silverwing too small
We all want them to show the Cannibal but I dont think they will. If you think about it, it makes more sense for them to invest in the dragons that will have more importance in the dance.
S2 Ep8 Sheepstealer and tessarion screen time confirm ( spoiler in the Ep 8 promo we can see tessarion flying above green army and Sheepstealer torn wing looks similar to vhagar wings and a falling dragon is moondancer or vermax) 99.9% confirmed
@@pavankr9775 ruclips.net/video/sTAXt2yPfek/видео.htmlsi=w9lwQwz91ight3QU check here 0.2 sec you will see a falling dragon I believe it’s happening in dragon stone
Vhagar appears to have a somewhat disproportionately large head, on top of being the largest dragon. Her head appears to me to be at least half again as massive as Vermithor's -- maybe closer to 2x the mass.
Small Mistake Bro: Its not the sept of Baelor. The only Kings who have been there yet are Aegoen Aenys Maegor Jahaerys Viserys and Aegon 2. No Baelor yet

He saw vermithor and silverwing along with syrax and seasmoke. 2 large dragons and 2 medium sized dragons. He knows that if vermithor locks with vhagar it makes her helpless against the other 3 pressing an attack especially because she can't really use her size to overpower this time it's different with other century old dragons who are closer to her size.
Vermithor getting big and strong off his diet of peasants :D
The greens are suddenly greatly outnumbered
Are you sure ?
traitors will balance that.
Silverwing is a such sweetheart , like a friendly cat wants to be petted 🥹❤️
Thanks for that spolier. Saying silverwing will survive the dance
We'll the show doesn't literally follow everything in the book so we'll see.
The final scene where Aemond was forced to turn Vhagar around and Rhaenyra stared at them gave me chills. I've read the books but I don't remember some of the stuff. Plus they are not always accurate for the show. So all I will say is that I hope Rhaenyra don't pull a Dany. As in, listen to stupid advices to wait and not take Kings Landing as soon as possible. Despite having the clearly more powerful army. Dany could of had the throne by early Season 7, but waited then never got a chance to sit in it. Rhaenyra SHOULD take the throne early Season 3.
😂😂 you'll be served next sunday I think😂😂
@@shervinjames8081Have you even watched House of the Dragon so far? How do you think Aegon Targaryen and Sunfyre got burnt to a crisp?
Silverwing and Caraxes are the most unique and majestic looking dragon ever
Vermithor is crazy! I'm not a book reader but this fella can only be bad news
Eagerly waiting for the size comparison of Vermithor and Vhagar
I love how Vermithor looks EXACTLY as the pictures in the book 🖤
I didn't expect that silver wing is bigger than caraxes and meleys
I’m pulling for cannibal
I love the dragon's names in these books.
The Cannibal, Meraxes, Vaghar and Balerion are bigger than Bronze Fury. He is the fifth largest dragon. Then, Vermithor and Sheepstealer, are bigger than Silverwing. She is the seventh largest dragon. Then, Tessarion, Sunfyre, Grey Ghost, Quicksilver, Syrax, Meleys, Caraxes and Dreamfyre are bigger than Seasmoke, making him the 16th largest dragon.
Yeh these 2 dragons are so cool. Silverwing is my favourite so far. I'm hoping we get to see Dreamfyre in the last episode. Considering Dreamfyre is meant to be the most majestic dragon (according to lore) I'd love to see her design in live action.
I don't think that they will show dreamfyre. Dreamfyre will be shown in the storming of the dragon's pitt I think. He will have no role to play in the upcoming war.
Silverwing is now my fav dragon design
I can't wait 4 the next episode 🤧
In the show Hugh Hammer says his mother is Targaryen. It’s Ulf White whose father was Baelon. In the show at least.
What he said was that she told him her half-brothers were Viserys and Daemon. So that would make her Baelon's daughter, and therefore Ulf's niece.
It’s annoying what they change
@@jackashmorethey didn't change anything the add stuff the books didn't really hint at who Ulf and Hugh's parents were
@@MiamiGameHunterRewatch the scene. Hugh says that his mother told him that he was the same as her BROTHER'S BOYS , Viserys and Daemon. He is their cousin, not their brother. His mother is very clearly Saera Targaryen, hence why he said she received special privileges for who she was while working in the pleasure house. It wasn't just that she had silver hair, she was respected above others because she was a Targaryen princess. Saera has bastards in the books too, who make their way to Westeros.
Silverwing the most docile dragon and vermithor perhaps most fierce, were in deep love. They lived together for their entire life. After the end of tessaerion vs seasmoke vs vermithor battle, silverwing came and tried to lift vermithor's wing to help him walk but her lover was already dead.
I feel so sad for them.😢
I think the dragons are choosing based on smell. Hugh & Ulf smell of Jaehaerys and Alysanne. While Alyn smells of Laenor.
The Dragons who survived the dance are Cannibal, Silverwing, Morning and Sheepsteeler.
The head and her teeth of Silverwing for some reason reminds me of The Alien Queen from the movie: Aliens from James Cameron. The way it was film the eggs like the sci fi movie and she us resting and hiding on the walls like the Aliens from the Classic movies. Silverwing (The Alien Queen) it has Alien vibes I love this !!!
Does anyone else find that shot at 7:46, Dreamfyre has the scariest dragon face of any dragon I've seen in any series. That is terrifying. Bloody hell.
Silverwing’s horn design reminds me of Rodan from the Monsterverse and Vermithor looks a bit like Smaug
i will never understand why they didn’t start this show with aegons conquest and follow them up until roberts rebellion. we could of then seen all of the dragons and it would of made much more sense instead of there being 2 random dragons just chilling inside a mountain
Bc the first books written, published ,sold, and read and loved were the Game of thrones Books....and then GRRM stopped writing Winds of Winter the final book, and helped HBO make the show....not sure but I think while he was doing this and I between he wrote the others, Fire and Blood, which deals with This show HOTD....and another book called A Knight of the 7 Kingdoms which follows Dunk and Eggs exploits....again I'm not even sure he has wrote a actual book about the Conquest....just explains it throughout the others...but like they did with Star Wars, and LoTR they start in the middle and head straight into the begining.....😮😳😎🙈🙊🙉😎😳😮
@@Honda-wf6qj you clearly haven’t read fire & blood then🤣
George wanted to start the show with Baelon and Aemon, I believe, but they went with starting with Rhaenyra
Because it feeds the current demographic. "Strong female character breaking the patriarchy" This is what the show can be summed up to
@@mridstaid414 adding to this, "three colonisers mercilessly burning everyone who defies their conquest" is probably not a message anyone would want to make with a show right now lmao
There is a common mistake among people about where dragons are. The Dragonpit is located in Kingslanding and is the large building where Aegon's crowning is placed. It was a series of large caves built into the Hill of Rhaenys started by Maegor Targaryen and completed by Jaehaerys to house the Targaryen's Dragons. On Dragonstone the Mountain and the dragons' caves are called the Dragonmount. This is where Silverwing and Vermithor took up residence.
6:49 The Building is the Dragonpit not the Sept of Baelor which is built by King Baelor years after the Dance of the Dragons.
Silverwing’s of my favorite dragon in show
dont know, dont care, silverwing looks amazing, i love everything about silverwing, from his name to his design to i bet his roar is incredible aswell
Silverwing is my favorite looking dragon
Pretty sure the dance of dragons is 129 to 131 so where do you get 132 from? Plus the showrunners said they condensed 30 years into 20 for the show....
Also in 6:45, that is not the sept of Baelor in the background as King Baelor 'the blessed' Targaryen is not even born in this timeline. It is probably the sept near the dragonpit which the Targaryens used to visit before the Sept of Baelor was built atop Visenya's hill by king Baelor much later in the timeline.
I find it interesting as well as no one seems to see this little bit is that the dragons choose riders closer in blood relation to their last or first rider
Can't wait to see Dreamfyre in true glory, she's the 2nd oldest dragon after Vhagar, probably third in size after Vermithor and bigger than Silverwing.
Hugh is the only son of Saera Targaryen, the daughter of Jaeherys whom he disowned. The half brother of Viserys and Daemon is Ulf, the new rider of Silverwing.
Drogons design was the only one that I loved and the other ones I pretty mich hated except Caraxes. But Silverwing my God is that thing dope.
Silverwing and Moondancer are by far the most beautiful dragons in HOTD.
no, its implied that its his MOTHER that was Targaryen. Saerra Targaryen, last daughter of Jahaerys the Concilliator.
Went back to my various pictures and could estimate the following (in meters, length-winsgpan):
- Vhagar 95 x 205
- Silverwing 53 x 78+ (due to angle, could easily be more than 85)
- Meleys 45 x 85
- Caraxes 60 x 77 (low confidence because Caraxes gets less useful shots for reference but i´m positive he grew a lot between seasons)
- Seasmoke 36 x ?
- Syrax 31 x 52 (assuming winspan to length ratio didn´t change between seasons)
- Sunfyre 25 x 35
When ulf is riding Silverwing, Silverwing looks a little too small compared to Ulf's body size. quite similar in size to caraxes considering she's been living outside the dragonpit for the last ~35 years
Can you do a overall size ranking of all dragons ?
I love silver wings light blue silver color she looks gorgeous
Hugh hammers mother is saera Targaryen which is the 9th child of king jaehaerys who was disowned to become a pleasure worker
The dragon team said during season 1 that the dragons flaps of lose skin is because of size not age. Dreamfyre doesn't have those features despite being older than Vermithor because she is smaller.
You can actually see Vermithor flying in the air in the season finale preview so that would much have been more accurate
I always liked Vermithror in the book and now I like him even more he's a Dragon in its prime. Now the only dragon that can turn my attention away from the bronze fury and I hope they show him in the last episode would be..........
The CANNIBAL.
Silverwing is absolutely beautiful. But so sad that my favorite Vermithor and his rider will switch to the Greens. The Bronze Fury should have remained with Rhaenyra flying riderless but protecting her from above.
Syrax has little baby cat paws and Seasmoke has big ol puppy paws. May hint at growth.
Another 10 yrs for next S3
Silverwing is gorgeous like meleys ❤
Hugh's mother was a daughter of the old king.
There is a new image in New York Times showing silverwings model and her exact scaling to a person
Wating for the size comparison of Vermithor and Vhagar
2:40 is incorrect, Hugh's grandfather was Baelon. His mother was Saera, sister of Baelon. He is 1st cousins with Daemon and Viserys
Do make Top 10 Biggest Megalodon in the Movies and Tv Series next!!
Vermithor is massive and silverwing and seasmoke are beautiful dragons. I wonder who those baby dragons are that Ulf stumbled upon when he claimed silverwing.
I wish we could see Balerion and meraxes in live action
Meraxes, Caraxes,Silverwing They are Same Breeds
There will be more spin-off series, from what I understand there is already a spin-off series being worked on called "Aegon's Conquest" and we will see Balerion there.
@@jafgamingx5241nah 😂😂 Caraxes had a birth defect so we don't really know what breed he is , I think he was supposed to be like Meleys
And Meraxes and Silverwing are 2 different categories , Silverwing is more like Vhagar
@@jafgamingx5241not true
@@Jericco8i hope so 💯🔥
silver wing looks like an old syrax
Silverwing is beautiful
I wish Steffon Darklyn could be Silverwing’s rider 😢
Sunfyre looks like the baby of Silverwing
I think Silverwing is at least 200 feet that's twice the size of Syrax since she's her momma.
Vermithor is a beast
SW is incredible beautiful
Silver wing is so small in size man look at it when it was near ulf its head was almost as similar size as drogon and jon snow scene. They made both vermathor and silverwing too small
We all want them to show the Cannibal but I dont think they will. If you think about it, it makes more sense for them to invest in the dragons that will have more importance in the dance.
Was that not the cannibal at the end of the trailer?
S2 Ep8 Sheepstealer and tessarion screen time confirm ( spoiler in the Ep 8 promo we can see tessarion flying above green army and Sheepstealer torn wing looks similar to vhagar wings and a falling dragon is moondancer or vermax) 99.9% confirmed
I have not seen that falling dragon where u have seen that
The battle of the Gullet happens in season 3 so it can't be Vermax and the battle of Dragonstone happens in season 4 so it can't be Moondancer either
@@pavankr9775 ruclips.net/video/sTAXt2yPfek/видео.htmlsi=w9lwQwz91ight3QU check here 0.2 sec you will see a falling dragon I believe it’s happening in dragon stone
Pretty sure the vfx producers confirmed Vhagar to be 500ft in length
Vhagar appears to have a somewhat disproportionately large head, on top of being the largest dragon. Her head appears to me to be at least half again as massive as Vermithor's -- maybe closer to 2x the mass.
Silverwing is so pretty
Small Mistake Bro: Its not the sept of Baelor. The only Kings who have been there yet are Aegoen Aenys Maegor Jahaerys Viserys and Aegon 2. No Baelor yet
The Sept of Bealon doesn't exist yet! Seara Targaryen is Hugh's mother.
first i thought that he betrayed blacks and going to help greens but at the end it was one of the best moment of the season vaghar and aemond being scared 😂😂😂😂
