    Viserys and Rhaenys are first cousins. Their grandfather was king. The kings oldest son and heir was Rhaenys father and he died. Then the younger brother, Viseryes father, dies. So they held a grand council of all the lords to determine if it should be the oldest child/grandchild or the oldest MALE child/grandchild. They decided male.

      In the books, the council was choosing between Viserys and Laenor. Rhaenys had already been passed over. When her father died, Baelon was named heir over her.

    This is hilarious. Hearing you mock my baby boy Caraxes is terrible yet funny at the same time: fun fact, his long serpentine body would’ve been impossible to fly with if it hadn't been for the sail/fin like wings on his hind legs, and his roar is due to a deviated septum that makes it hard for Caraxes to properly communicate with other dragons.
    Also, Caraxes is a lot older than Syrax - he was actually the dragon of Princess Rhaenys' dad, before he died and then Daemon later claimed the dragon. Similarly, the dragon Rhaenys rides was once the dragon of Daemon and Viserys's mother.

    The *Free Cities* are the city states on the western coast of Essos, just on the other side of the Narrow Sea.
    In this case it's an alliance (the Triarchy) of the three cities Myr, Lys & Tyrosh.
    The *Stepstones* is a group of islands in the middle of the Narrow Sea between Westeros and Essos, which means they're on an important trade route.
    That's why pirates in service of the triarchy target them.

    I will try to help you understand:
    Viserys and Rhaenys are cousins. The two are Jaehaerys' grandchildren.
    Rhaenys was Aemon's daughter, he was the heir to the throne.
    Viserys and Daemon were sons of Baelon.
    Aemon died and Baelon was named heir instead of Rhaenys. She was ignored by her grandfather.
    Baelon also died and then the great council took place where Viserys was chosen and Rhaenys rejected again.

    • @bill.godwin-austen
      @bill.godwin-austen 3 месяца назад +1

      Yes! It is, literally, the family bloodline. Each of the devices represents someone in the line, beginning with Aegon the Conqueror (represented by his crown), the paths of blood represent children. When a device fills with blood, that means the person it represented is dead. It does move pretty quickly, and it's a bit dark, so it's really hard to keep up with who's who (I believe someone did a YT video going through it slowly and pointing out who is represented by each). Note that the last one shown represents Rhaenyra... the symbol on it is the charm on the necklace that Daemon gave her.

    It was observant of you to see that you didn’t recognize the Sept. This building no longer existed in the Game of Thrones era. It was replaced by the Sept of Baelor. Baelor was a future Targaryen king and very religious. You would remember the Sept of Baelor as the place where Ned was executed on the steps outside. And quite a few events happened inside the Sept of Baelor, including Tyrion and Joffrey’s weddings. And the funerals of Joffrey and Tywin. And it is the building that Cersei had blown up at the end of Season 6. The other big building that is a significant part of King’s Landing at this time, but doesn’t exist by the Game of Thrones era is the Dragon Pit where they house the dragons. You might recall that they met in the ruins of the Dragon Pit at the end of Season 7. It was the place where they all got together to discuss the coming problem of the Army of the Dead and what they were going to do about it.

Tywin Lannister's wife was his cousin. In this case Viserys and Rhaenys are cousins which makes Laena not related to Viserys enough for it to be considered weird in this world lmao.

  • @darkhpfan411
    @darkhpfan411 3 месяца назад +5

    I think a reason why Viserys is so concerned about having more heirs is because Targaryens tend to die young. His grandfather King Jaehaerys had 13 children and all but two of them died before him, leaving his grandchildren as his heirs. (of the two surviving ones there was a son who was a Maester and a daughter who was disowned, so they couldn't be considered heir) The more kids he has the better chance there is for the family to live on.

    You mentioned marrying cousins as if that would repulse in Westerosi great lords.
    Just to clear things Ned Starks parents are cousins, Tywin Lannister married his cousin, in Game of Thrones Sansa was betrothed to Robyn Aryn, her cousin. Cersei sleeping with Lancal and him being her cousin was never an issue with their father in the sense that they were cousins but instead that Cersei would sexually temp her own family that was only 17 outside of marriage, so to just use him.
    In short cousin marriage aren’t really seen as incest with Lords in Game of Thrones

    • @bobydean1839
      @bobydean1839 3 месяца назад +2

      Oh and Viserys Targaryen definitely wouldn’t have an issue marrying his cousin twice removed when he was just married to his cousin when she was 11 and he was 16. He also immediately attempt consummating the marriage against advice due to how young his child wife was. Aemma had her fist child to term, Rhaenyra, at the age of 15 however that was not her first pregnancy. It’s very possible all the attempts to impregnate her at such a young age, before development, made her less viable at carrying children.

    Rhaenyra wants to choose the best candidate for the safety of her father.
    Otto's choice would've been political: he wants to give the appointment to noble families as a political favor, to strengthen alliances.
    (The question is if he thinks of alliances to the king - or if he deliberately wants to bring "his" people in positions of power, playing his own game. 🤔🤔)
    2.) Otto wants to get rid of Daemon and tries to drive a wedge between him and the king:
    He didn't want the king himself go to Dragonstone because the brothers would probably talk it out.
    Daemon just wants his brother's attention.
    As soon as Otto came to Dragonstone he went immediately for confrontation and started to insult Daemon to escalate the situation.
    Then Rhaenyra came in and put an end to it.

    You guys don't seem to have the mind for politics even after 8 seasons of GOT. And how are you still unaware of Targaryens practicing incest to keep the power of bonding with dragons to their own house? Also, asking why Otto isn't riding a drogon... Have you paid any attention until now?

    Hightpwer did not go to dragenstone in the king's stead because he was concerned about the king's safety. Hightower has left so that Demon and his brother have no chance of reconciling. Hightower wants it to escalate. Demon stole the egg to get his brother's attention. He wanted to talk to him. Hightower knows this and intervened.
    In the same way, Hightower also manipulated the situation after the funeral. He told the king what Demon supposedly said so badly. But we viewers didn't see it ourselves. Demon has admitted to saying the words "heir to the throne for a day." But what's so bad about that? No one knows the context of this statement. Hightower, as the bearer of the message, manipulated the context in his own interest and made it look bad. Demon didn't know HOW Hightower told it and was stunned himself. He replied that everyone grieves in their own way.
    The bottom line is that Demon didn't do anything wrong, at least nothing that could be proven. All stories come exclusively from Hightower, who wants to see his daughter on the throne. Demon would be the rightful heir to the throne. Hightower has already taken it out of the game.
    But the two of you don't see any of that. You judge without thinking. You never really listen either, but accompany every half-sentence with stupid comments.
    I would suggest that you educate yourself in history and politics. Then you might get an understanding that the king is constantly making the wrong decisions here. He acts more as a father than as a king. And as king, he has more people to protect than just his closest circle of acquaintances. This includes marrying a 12-year-old, even if no one likes it, but that's exactly what saves 100,000 lives.

      Your first paragraph breaking down Daemon’s actions are so spot on & to your point, this shouldn’t be so hard to infer. I don’t understand how these reactors & others don’t pick up on it. Very simple thinking. And just bc the music gets darker & Daemon & Corly’s were meeting in private they acted as if Daemon literally stabbed his brother in the back. They weren’t planning to attack the king, they were planning on how to protect their property. It’s like they can’t think for themselves, the music is scary therefore this moment must be bad. It’s ridiculous.

    If you look (and listen) closely, you'll see that Daemon's dragon (Caraxes) and. Rhaenyra's dragon (Syrax, who is female), get along pretty well, there don't seem to be any territorial issues between them; they were vocalizing greetings to each other...Remember that dragons can sense (and react to) their riders' feelings.

Did you ask why Otto wasn’t riding a dragon or you meant daemon? We seen daemon ride his dragon last episode and only Targaryens can…not even the Velaryons can ride them normally.

    Of course we are supposed to feel very uncomfortable with how young the Lady Laena is, especially in comparison to Viserys. But if you look back at Medieval English history, which is the inspiration for a lot of the stories in the Game of Thrones universe, you would find that quite a few Medieval English Kings made marriage alliances with foreign princesses when the princesses were only twelve. The majority of them more French princesses. These marriages were looked at as political alliances. The young queens had their own households, and often lived in separate castles during the early years of their marriage. Of course with Viserys everyone keeps stressing that he needs to marry again in order to have more heirs, supposedly for the stability of the crown. So having to wait several years before that was even possible doesn’t seem like the best idea. Yet Alicent’s youth also doesn’t seem much better.

Like, some 50 years before Daenerys or some 80 years after Rheanira.

    Caraxes was born deformed and underdeveloped in some ways giving him the appearance of a snake or worm, which is why he’s also called the ‘blood wrym’. His body kind of adapted unique traits so that he could still fly and function. that’s also why his roar is so nasally and piercing, it’s likely he has a dragon’s equivalent to a deviated septum.

    a bit of advice going forward:
    stop judging the relationships in this show through the 21st century lens and understand that it is heavily inspired by medieval europe. the age and possible incest is irrelevant. all that matters is politics.
    for a house like the targaryens any instability can mean a total destruction. they HAVE TO consider politics before anything else. if the only available person for marriage in the right family is your 12yo cousin you marry your 12yo cousin and wait until they're the minimum age for producing an heir and then you produce an heir. that's it.
    if you want to enjoy this show properly you have to realize this because otherwise you'll be stuck hating on characters for no reason other than making the right choice that you think is "disgusting" by 2024 1st world standards.
