Hello everyone in 2024 who found this video after A Son For A Son. I just want to apologies and add this is a very old video near 2 years old, i made it when i had less than 1000 subs. Since then my equipment has gotten better and i my voice over has gotten miles better. So please don't judge me to harshly. i am in the process of remaking a lot of my older content to bring it more in line with what i want my quality to be in 2024
I find it ironic that after all the trouble that Alicent went through to have her children ascend to the throne she watched all of them die and her blood line extinguished right before her eyes
based
Poetic justice tbh
huh?! didn't you just hear that her grand daughter wed rhenyeras grandson and had children ? and the Hightower's aren't extinct either what are u on about ?
@@thewkndmeltdown they aren’t extinct, but their once great house is diminished, because of Alicent and Otto. If you stop getting emotional in the comments you wouldn’t have these reactions.
@@thewkndmeltdown Jaehaera Targaryen died before having kids with Aegon the third... He then later married Daenaera Velaryon and had 5 kids with her
You can almost feel bad for Aegon II. He watched his children and siblings die, had his body and dragon disfigured knowing that in the end, it was all for nothing his whole life being groomed to be a political piece for Otto and Alicents ambition for power.
At the end of the day nobody won the Dance of Dragons everyone lost especially House Targaryen who survived but at the cost of most their house and started the extinction of the dragons. Although Daenerys did hatched three eggs but it's only a tiny faction when the Targaryens was at their Apex of their power.
Very well put, sums it up perfectly
To be fair danerys and snow became descendants of rhaenera and not ageon the 2 so I guess the blacks lasted and the greens did not
@@jogarcia4068 never forget Daemon. :)
War makes corpses of us all!
@@jogarcia4068 yeah the blacks won the war but at the cost of literally everything
We can all agree this is all Otto Hightower’s fault. The dude’s lust for power caused this.
And Criston Cole; his bitterness and constant desire for vengeance on Rhaenyra didn’t help. He was a pathetic scorned lover who had some good tactics but ultimately lead his king to becoming crippled.
Women ☕ did all that.Alicent and Rhaenya both fked up whole house.
@@diogovieira5563 no need to be racist weirdo
@@VengefulPurity Rhaenyra being heir fucked up the whole thing
@@levia9349 if everyone had just kept their place and did what the king decreed ( have rhanyra succeed him) none of it would have happened. Not Rhanyra’s fault, she was named heir, she was taking what was hers. Alicent and Otto are in the wrong. Burn the greens!!!
I feel so bad for him. He was honestly a foolish child put into a horrible position by his mother and grandfather. His reaction to being offered the wall shows it.
I don’t think on the beginning he really wanted the throne. Criston Cole and his mother very much pushed him
@@WorldOfWesteros
True, he was under the impression Rhaenyra was gonna rule as well.
Still, the Greens weren't wrong to warn him
He only took the throne because his mother said Rhaenyra would kill him and his siblings which wasn’t to far fetched
@@Rizz779
I mean, honestly, it depends. Perhaps at that time, Rhaenyra wouldn't have been too upset so as to murder them all if she got the Throne. If she did, that would've caused the Realm to Rebel against her considering many of them never wanted her on the Throne anyways.
@@thalmoragent9344 it doesn’t really matter as long as they live they’ll call In to question her son’s legitimacy and if they are found to be bastards (which they are) they’d be replaced
Not to mention everything we’ve seen in ASOIAF and in the real world is people killing threats to your claim so yeah Rhaenyra or Daemon would kill all the greens given the chance
It's weird, I always feel bad for Aegon II at the end of the story. He was even hopeful when told Aegon the Younger would let him take the black. If only his mother hadn't frightened him into trying to maim him instead...
It's very likely that he killed himself
To be fair, Aegon II resisting would've been best. Cregan wouldn't have let it go, and Aegon III saw that Sunfyre killed his mother
@@thalmoragent9344Aegon II's laugh and Sunfyre's roarr was in his head for his whole life 😂😂😂
@@nicksmithnutmilkthat messed up smh
Aegon the First lived like Julius Caesar, with great conquest, while Aegon the Second died like Julius Caesar, betrayed by his own followers at a celebration with his guard down.
He destined to die anyway . All dragon are dead and house Stark arriving with full force to support Aegon 3 . They urge him to take the black but he refused .
In the end it was Cregan Stark who set things after the poisoning of aegon ll. most of the perpetrators were either sent by Cregan to the wall or executed. Corlys was only spared when he offered Cregan a new wife. Cregan Stark was then appointef by Aegon lll to be the hand of the king. the 1st stark to hold such position. For 6 days, Cregan became the most powerful man in the kingdom calling it the Hour of the Wolf. but he resign and went back to the north.
Thee Hour of the WOLF
Lord Stark straighten all of them out
@@meetdavis1029 - Facts 😆🐺 lmao
Starks are always badass
They move after most of big dragons and the Aemond daemon died
@@mijanhoque1740 yeah they are written has a heroic magical family haha
Sheesh...Rhaenera got more timid as the war went on, Alicent got more vicious.
She seemed to think about the effect of her actions more. She should have been given more battle experience once named heir and not treated like a regular woman in the society with expectations to wed and bear children. If she had become more like Visenya this war would have played out differently.
To sit on the iron throne you either need ruthless people supporting you or you need to be the ruthless one. Rhaenyra is not trained to wage war and relies on the men around her a bit too much. She also prevents her children from being more strong handed about things. Sending her boy with the condition that he not fight was bullshit because he ends up not actively protecting himself. She should have sent them both to each location together to discourage ambushes. She constantly under estimates the brutality the greens will inflict because she doesn’t seem aware that they were afraid of what she would do to them when she ruled. They reacted out of fear and she never comprehended what fear can cause people to do. The greens had everything to lose because they just knew she would kill them to secure her lineage despite the marriage offers.
@@MrTaylorAriesoh yeah the same green bs. If Rhaenyra ascended her throne, no one would have got harmed especially with how many lords sided with her ( the greens argument of the lords not wanting a queen is bs). The greens should've stayed in their lane and should've respected the line of succession as Daemon and Rhaenys did (when these two also had a claim)
@@Chasingdreams25Deamons children and the strong boys would eventually war for the throne if not them than there descendants would have
I love how pointless the dance of the dragons was because neither agon nor rhaenrya lived to survive the end of the war and neither saw lasting Raines on the throne as rhaenrya only rained for half a year and agon for two
Wel thats a very mediocre way of see things, very poor. I prefer to die but My blood line Will be on the throne for Many decades, im all in. But just with your coment i know You are team green selfish and non sense.
Yes! In the end both sides would have been happier without war. In the end Rhaenyra's bloodline ruled. The greens should have supported her. It's ironic that them fearing for their lives led the greens to be extinguished.
@@Umeshukitsune agree very ironic. And really never was a signal that Rhaenyra Will kiill her half brothers, in fact she said, she would support her brothers to have Lands and titles. Alicent was soooo Dumb and of course it happen so we have a great book and series haha so it has to happen
@@Red-90 what laws of the realm??? Hahaha time changes!!! The King is the dragón and his Word is law, as simple as that. Is not the dame what happen 100 years ago. Even Aegon2 get that and he múltiple times said he didt wanna usurp her sister. Thats it. We see Crystal clear the north and driftmark was fine with rhaenyra, so there Will be no rebelión if the greens are no so stupid to usurping.
@@Red-90 Perfect you answer yourself, there is no law bc exactly there was a council and big houses like the Stark or Baratheon vote for Rhanenys, so it was allow a women can be queen. AS SIMPLE AS THAT. About her sons they are Targaryen are they not? Jacaerys will asscendt as Targaryen NO VELARYON ANYWAY. Why people like to argue when they are in the wrong? IS SOOOOO STUPID but no surprise bc you are green and thats all about be selfish and stupid. STILL VERY DUMB
honestly house of the dragon has the potential to surpass GoT
as long as they don't pick sides between blacks and greens then i think it does have the potential
@@WorldOfWesteros it definitely has the potential the way the show is already set up
Tbh there will never be one that will surpass GOT without GOT there would never be another. As much as we may not like the way it ended, what we got throughout the years speaks for its self. Absolutely stunning!!! The characters themselves… wow The world of the realm and so on and so On. We can agree to disagree I’m sure :)))
@@WorldOfWesteros but isn't that what happens.?
@@WorldOfWesteros seems like they want the audience to root for Rhaenys and Daemons side.
Alicent’s thirst for revenge and bloodlust was the nail in her son’s coffin.
If there's one winner at the end of the dance, it has to be Daemon. His heir sits the iron throne, he lived his life to the fullest. Won almost every battle he fought and slayed Vhagar and her rider in his death.
Daemon would have hated the majority of his kids/grandkids. Aegon III let the dragons die out because he had PTSD (I believe Silverwing had at least a clutch of eggs after the war but who knows because Aegon III never investigated), Baelor became a religious fanatic of the seven which Daemon hated, and Aegon IV needs no explanation. You could say he would be proud of Daeron but he died really young. Viserys II was ok.
I’m starting to think the iron throne is curse and those seek it for themselves are doom like the one ring.
@Balmug it seems like Aegon was overly dramatic.
The chair represents the kingdom as a whole. Its mans greed and lust for power that is corruptable
@Balmug Viserys is a good man but not a good king. Question had that throne ever been clean?
@BalmugEven worsts dealing with Aegon the Unworthy.
The dance started because of personality issues and a lack of clarity. Aegon conquered Westeros but never had succession issues because his lack of heirs beyond Maegor being his second child/backup king.
The dance also bred out the proper warrior in the family for a time and the tendency to be overbearing. The fact that the Targaryen’s did not remove the faith and did not maintain the power they needed to rule besides dragons just kills me. They had enough family members before the dance to fill their own small council and build a concrete line of succession of rulers over Dragonstone,the throne, Driftmark and Runestone.
There is no reason to fight as everyone could have had some sort of power based on their personal skill/preferences..the role of the hand would never have to be given to an outsider either thus keeping the crown all on the same agenda at all times. The Hightowers warped that vision by trying to assert someone specific to the throne knowing damn well that chair is a curse and a burden.
In an alternative fantasy universe the Targaryen’s rule without the dance keeps Westeros safe from the long night with ease. The dead would march South and run into flames, dragon glass and Valeryian steel
That was very hard to read. No joke, is English a second language for you? If it is, that was pretty good! if not though... oh man lol
As George said it was not meant to be
Exactly, no matter the problems within the family, Targaryens and Velaryons should've been the only ones to be bound by blood as the two Valyrian families. Bringing an outsider house like Hightower within the Targaryen Dynasty was a bad decision. Viserys I was too naive to see this
@@jimsty7550why does it matter? It's excellent English
im not going to lie making the Velaryons black actually makes it alot easier to distinguish the houses.
to be honest the moment i watched the show with my girlfriend who had enough trouble keeping track of the targaryens in the main show, the decision suddenly made a lot of sense to me. She would have been utterly lost of you had Corlys, Laenor, Laena, Balea, Rhaena on top of all the other Targaryens. It really helps make it clear it a different family.
I think it also served the story better by making it more obvious who the real father was or maybe I should say wasn't? This is the first time I've seen a race/gender swap and thought it was done well.
@@NotASexualizedHandle thats whats so frustrating when its done badly because its really not hard to do it right. Like "rings of power" why didn't you just show us what was going on in Harad and Rhun???
That's a cute way of saying you have below average IQ.
I like the parallels between Vicerys and Aegon 2 (Like father like son), both of them denied the throne to their elder sister (Rhaenys and Rhaenyra), both of them have a weird relationship with their younger family (Daemon and Aegon 3), both of them ended up with single heir who happens to be female (Rhaenyra and Jahaera), both of them were extremely sick until they died, but the only difference being one lived long enough to remarry and indirectly start a war.
I guess the marriage between Aegon 3 and Jahaera in the show would bring so many parallels to season 1, where Daemon and Rhaenyra were younger. Tropes such as this type of marriage should have been done a generation earlier and keeping peace instead of remarrying and having more sons.
First: Rhaenys wasn't his sister.
Second: Rhaenys was never apointed true heir like Rhaenyra, her father died on duty way before that, and her uncle was appointed the new king, when he died his son took the throne through an actual vote, because there was no appointed heir to the throne since both kings died out of the blue and never appointed heirs.
Her nickname of "Queen that never was" was due to the fact she was close to the throne sucession twice (one when her father died and other when her uncle died) but her case was a really longer shot to get her than when the king actually appoint Rhaenerys as true heir.
@@Nobody-su9km I took some liberty to point out the parallels, I know Rhaenys wasn't his sister, but for their relationship of being cousins, it seemed closer.
Also, I wasn't saying it was exactly the same, but it is close enough for me that in Viserys case, an elder female cousin claim was rejected by vote and in Aegon 2 case, an elder half-sister claim was rejected due to personal reasons.
A tragic end tbh. It's a shame how it ended, Rhaenyra burnt and eaten, Aegon II poisoned. Neither claimant outlived the Civil War that was fought over them. Aegon II would officially be seen as the Monarch that came after Viserys and not Rhaenyra but, a short reign regardless.
I feel terrible for him, Aemond, Helaena and Daeron. They deserved better.
What about Aegon
@@AegonTargaryenthesecond3096 That’s who I meant, Aegon II
@@jjs1300000 ah I can see your a smart guy
Great video, as always.
Corlys Seasnake, Sovereing-maker. Even Varys could use one or two tricks.
For House Of The Dragon, The Dance of Dragons should divide the audience and not just pick sides of the different factions because honestly everyone in this story does terrible things
This is actually something I worry about. That the show will pick a side and not really let the audience decide
@@WorldOfWesteros Me too that’s my biggest concern.
@@WorldOfWesteros Seems like they’re going in that direction since Alicent is likable as well. (For now)
@@WorldOfWesteros so far it is quite obvious that they’re letting everyone be morally grey, I love it.
I feel like they will pick a side because so far I don’t like Alicent like when her and raenyra were friends I did like her but not after she got with raenyras dad. They make Alicent and her family seem like manipulators and low key back stabbers but in the beginning you can tell that alicent was a better person.
The one I been waiting on .....again greatness
Great video. Several details here I didn't remember as I only did an audiobook for F&B
To be fair the first time i 'read' fire and blood was the audio book, it's actually very well done.
Sad to see how people miss interpreted Rhaenyra, she was forced into the war by the denial of her rightfull throne, then they murdered her son and Aegon threw a feast to celebrate it, even then Daemon was the one that collected the vengeance not her, as the war progressed she lost all of her sons into the war and then by the end got betrayed by her dragon riders and acused of killing her half sister (which she didn't), i don't think anyone in her position would've done anything different after all she went through. She wasn't at all evil in heart, Aegon on the other hand showed multiple displays of sociopathy.
nobody forced her to sire bastards or to consort with her degenerate and mad uncle
She could've prevented her children's deaths by not being power hungry she knew there would be loss and so did aegon but because they're both greedy trash they didn't care who they had to sacrifice
True. If I were in her place, man or woman I'd have done the same thing. Fighting to get back what's rightfully mine.
@@connoisseur1595 then why do we all not take daemon blackfyre's side? The throne was rightfully his, but he went about it as terribly and as selfishly as rhaenyra
She's misinterpreted coz of sexist ppl around. I wonder if she were a guy, ppl would be rooting for her. Or even if (s)he's a bastard if the storyline's successor is a sh!t. I've seen royalties fighting for their rights and ppl supported them coz they're guys 😅

The only thing that the dance did to the Targaryens is kill their dragons and make their family weak.
It's more telling that even with the dance of the dragons, the Hightowers remain one of the most if not the most powerful house, just goes to show that had Viserys not crowned Rhaenyra as heir, the realm would've been much more prosperous.
And that's a good thing, isn't it?
Leanor was tripping he was supposed to keep the bloodline going! He was supposed to definitely breaking wood in Rhaenyra and having kids instead of the damn doorman! Come on son, you couldn't just at least make 1 kid my guy!? Got to do better
Maybe he really was shooting blank. He seemed to be the top with his relationship with Joffrey, so I don't think it's an issue of not being able to get it in.
In the show he couldnt get it up with Rhaenyra, they tried but he couldnt perform
😂😂
why couldnt rhaenyra just marry someone who was straight?they did a whole marriage tour for her spoiled brat self & she certainly wasnt shy about going after whatever guy was in her proximity(cole, daemon etc), why is it only poor laenors fault?
I love how Seasnake protected Aegon 3 despite Rahenarya betraying him and throwing him in the dungeon
Didn’t he actually betray her first though so I understand where her paranoia came from.
Finally, a RUclips channel pronouncing "Velaryon" correctly! 👍
Lived 24 years, ruled for 2. Is it even worth it?
rhaenyra ruled for 6 months lol
A clear demonstration of how GRRM makes his characters are and how murky this world is.
Corlys switched sides because Rhaenyra had him arrested because he was protecting his kin. He was bitter because of this as well as he blamed Rhaenyra for his wife's death. He thought Aegon would be better but after Rhaenyra's death Corlys reliased how worse Aegon was. Aegon was self medicating by drinking to dull the pain of his injuries . The pain and even worse mood made him hell bent on executing Lady Baela and Aegon the Younger. He refused on making peace. After this, Corlys and the others reliased Aegon was not going to make a good king.
great analysis. it really highlights how no one really won the dance of the dragons
True. All this cause no one listened to Viserys last command to secure the Throne through Rhaenyra as heir, and both sides went into chaos
It's all because of Viserys stupidity as king I'm glad the throne was killing him
@@thalmoragent9344 - FACTS 😤🐉🔥 Vows meant nothing to House Hightower. Their lust for power tore the realm in two. People might have not wanted a woman to rule... but they would have had to accept it. And we'll never know what sort of Queen Rhaenyera would have truly turned out to be, had she been LEFT ALONE to rule as she was meant to. Instead, we can only view her through the lens of suffering & betrayal, getting backstabbed over & over again. That would turn anyone monstrous. The Hightowers started all of this bullsh*t.
The Last Green council betrayed Aegon ll out of fear of the Old Man in the North, not because they thought Aegon lll would be a better king. Lord Stark saw their cowardice for what it was and killed/exiled all the conspirators.
Thus ended the reign of Aegon the Usurper.
Aegon ii had a cool personal sigil and the most beautiful dragon.
Actually I think that Otto and Alicent Line (so the line of Aegon II) didn’t die out, i mean the legitimate one died out, but Aegon II had several bastards, some of them not aware probably of their ancestries, and maybe their bloodlines still survived in the recent events of Game of Thrones, who knows! I’m more than sure that there are still Alicent’s descendants alive
Yeah people often forget that Aegon had numerous illegitimate children so his blood is still out there. And I mean I’m not 100% sure but it think Otto had some other unnamed sons so his bloodline could have carried on.
He had a son named Gwayne Hightower but he is killed when Rhaenyra takes the capital by a gold cloak named Ser Luther Largent. But who knows if he had another son. At this time there were tons of people in House Hightower
@@dippy8053 yeah he had other sons too, in the book is mentioned that he had more than one son
@@frankx1219 Now that I think about it, in HOTD first episode they said the Gwayne Hightower was the `eldest son’ of the Hand of the King. So that probably means he has more than one.
Queen Rhaenyra had offered this Same type union before the war started but greed hampered it so much unnecessary blood was spilt Otto is 2 blame for this
Because Rhaenyra's kids were illegitimate bastards
Rhaenyra offered that marriage in an attempt to have Alicent clean the mess that she willingly made, it was a gain for Rhaenyra and a loss of Alicent.
If you insist on putting the blame on someone let it be on Viserys I
Opinion: I almost feel pity for him because his reign was absolutely miserable. He was unconscious for a good half of it and then the other half he was in constant physical agony and lost all his family members. I almost feel sorry for him but I can’t help thinking he brought it on himself in a way. Surprisingly from reading the lore, he’s not the worst member of the Greens. His mother, Ser Criston Coke, Larys Strong we’re awful. He actually was going to do the right thing but was manipulated out of it. That is where my sympathy draws in because he didn’t want to do it from the beginning and was actually doing the right thing by obeying his fathers wishes unlike the rest of the Greens that betrayed Viserys as soon as he drew his last breathe. In that way I can say he was loyal to his father even though their relationship isn’t much specified in the books. He was probably thinking that in his last moments that if he had not taken the throne then his children wouldn’t be dead and he wouldn’t be a severely burned cripple. I bet most of the Greens in the end we’re experiencing high forms of regret. Especially since they didn’t even win in the end. The war was about which bloodline would come out on top and it was Rhaenyra’s. And to add insult to injury he was betrayed by his own men, not that I feel sorry for him on that, but that’s just pitiful to go through all that trouble to be sold out by your own men and knowing that as your dying your enemy wins because the matter of succession went through Rhaenyra’s children not his. Even though he’s a despicable character, his ending almost makes you feel sorry for him. ALMOST (for me)
That milk of the poppy has to be magical because burns that extensive are so painful opiates aren't enough. People with massive burns have to literally be induced into coma that's how bad the pain is. The show needs to explain a: how the king doesn't end up addicted to the opiate milk after being unconscious under it for a whole year and b: how he could possibly survive both dragonfire and a thousand foot drop while being strapped to a 2 ton animal.
ironic that " he says that it would be unspeakable for a knight of the kingsguard to kill the king he is sworn to"
He became a Monster and was put down like one..
Aegon died peaceful in quiet rhaenyra is the one who had a painful death with suffering sunfyre really enjoyed that snack i sumtimes wonder if rheanyra regretted all the bad things she did before death like not bendin the knee to her brother aegon ii
@@barronspears aegon suffered alot after the war with Melys, he even couldn't walk. I think dying in a minute is far better than living in pain for a while
Looks like he is a parallel of Jeoffrey, poisoned too.
Stupid and superficial comparison. Jeffrey was a coward. Aegon was brave
Idk how much more of Fire and Blood part 1 is left, but what are you going to do after it?
i think about 2/3 of fire and blood is covered at this point. After i've covered that than i'll cover the targaryen stuff from the world book which will take me up to robert's rebellion. I'll then maybe remake my early videos as there considerably lower in quality. I have plans to do more detailed videos about each character, battle analysis and probable comparing house of the dragon to the books. So i have a lot planned but not going to lie fire and blood part 2 would be very helpful
@@WorldOfWesteros yeah. Without it your just going to have to be vague about stuff
You need to be on the show !!!!!!!!
Where can I get this map
Copying this from
My Rhaenerya video.
While my general spoiler policy comes down to the books that have been out years, my videos are years old, these videos are about the books i have been very disheartened to see a few people have stumbled upon this video and have been upset they now know the fate of a character from the show. While i stand by my position that this is a video about the book lore for book readers made before the show existed, that nowhere do i mention House Of The Dragon, that it is not my responsibility police what you decided to click on. In this singular case i chosen to slightly adjust the tittle and thumbnail to make it a bit less obvious in event someone does accidentally stumbled across this video due to the algorithm.
What a ridiculous comment. You do realise that “House of the Dragon” is literally in the title of the video right? People don’t even have to click on the video to be spoiled because of your stupid title already ruining it for them. People are commenting to express their dislike of your videos *Title* not it’s content and that is 100% your fault and responsibility for ruining other peoples experiences.
You have done nothing wrong. Like you said, these videos predate the show. Some people just want to vilify anyone they can.
As a non book reader who can’t hold in the excitement for 2024, you did nothing wrong.
1. To go to a channel like yours and not expect a spoiler or at least to be prepared for one is crazy
2. My understanding is the show has changed a decent amount already (Aemond not purposely killing Luke in the show), so who’s to say your recap of the books is a true spoiler. I’m sure aegon meets a similar fate, but who’s to say it’s the same manner or same time.
You did nothing the wrong bro
It’s hella crazy that this video of Aegon II has 171 K views as well as the Aegon III video 😮
I hope they show this in HOTD
So Daemon won the dance, as all his children lived and nobody else
Yes only Daemon ! Not that idi*t Rhaenyra , not that drunk as* fried bacon Aegon II and for sure not that depressed Aegon III 😂😂🤣 Daemon forever ❤️❤️🩶🩶
I do suspect Cregan stark did not really wish to fight in the war. Since he basically showed up when the war was done all the senior members of house Targaryen was dead the dragons were dead the armies were dead and the peace had been more or less forged. The north might be slow to move but not that slow. The north suffered no losses expect for the winter wolves
Long lives king aegon the third
This must be the final season.
Where I find this map?
The lands of ice and fire
Poor Aegon he sounded hopeful when Corlys said to go to the wall, but Alicent interjection advice help solve nothing. I think Aegon 3 would of let him carry out his day at the wall but knowing Aegon 2 he probably would of been miserable at the wall and probably kill himself.
If poor Aegon had just grabbed his dead father's crown and ridden Sunfyre to Dragonstone to crown Rhaenyra himself
Ok 😅😥 I havent read the books and only watch the HOTD series. YT recommended your channel. Now Im spoiled because of your video title and banner.
I hope they remake Game of Thrones 2030 onwards. Do it right. Go the 15 seasons, Go Grand.
Martin will probably have finished writing by then
@@alex939709 he will never finish the books at this rate. He is an obese old dude who is about to die.
And so perished Aegon the Usurper. But at what cost?
pretty much all the dragons, tens maybe hundreds of thousand soldiers and civilians alike. some noble house like hightower, velarion and lannister losing their heads or succesor some houses literally whether you sided with blacks or greens you lost a lot .
I feel like because of everything we’re gonna witness this man do before his death, it’ll be somewhat melancholy that he only dies by poison
Dance of the Dragons is a result of paranoia, mistrust, arrogance, ignorance, madness and stupidity.
Like the One ring - the iron throne corrupts all who want it!
LETS FUCKIN GO!!!!
I know rite? Lol
He went just like Joeffry
Kinda cool to think that all these people are descendants of Daenerys and Jon Snow
Lol they are ancestors not descendants😂
What the fucking relationship they have
That war was just a waste of time, no one can be considered a winner here !
Hope it was worth it alicient
house of the dragon show cover angon the 3 life too
Wow Larys Strong help murder Aegon II? How did he turn from green to black? I want to know!
he played both sides of the war.
@@fakeicecream552 wow Larys really didn't disappoint
Hes HotD Littlefinger its not shocking at all
he did not turn black
You know who I hate? Alfred Broom. Glad his name was snuffed out.
Whatever happened to Alicent at the end ?
She survived the wars itself and dies of a winter fever couple of years later whist being kept as a prisoner
@@WorldOfWesteros Seems like a fitting end. Withering away like physically like she did morally.
@@Littlereddevil94 She also developed an intense fear/hatred of the color green.
@@randomcenturion7264 She talk to herself and keep crying and the last word she tell to her Sept is I want to see my son's again and helaena my sweet girl.... Oh and king jaeherys I will read him just like I did when I was a little he used to say I have a lovely voice.
@@chairagaspar9331 After all the pain she caused, I doubt she'll see Helaena again. She's almost certainly on her way to the Seven Hells.
What was the clubfoot’s motive? He flip flops so much.
At least in the show it seems like he's trying to further himself, but in the books its been lost to history
Horny
@@keel1237 haha
Larys likely saw the writing on the wall, he knew that if Aegon and Alicent had their way and started mutilating their young hostages, after Rhaenyra had been brutally murdered already, the vengeance of the Blacks would be even swifter and more compensatory in brutality.
Those hideous wigs on the TV version of the valeryons are ridiculous and completely immersion breaking
Daemons daughters are by far
*THE WORSE* !!!
They look like mops. Brillo pad mops. Laena had the best looking one.
There are shortages for blonde wigs going on, so they had to use fake hair. You sound like an ungrateful toddler. Get over it.
Wonder how the youngest son of Alicent died? There has been very little mention of him so far.
The two years of his Reign was just miserable
Maybe Cregan Stark wasn’t so ruthless after all the greens deserved all the suffering
Finally... good riddance. And now The Hour of the Wolf is coming yee and then the reign of Aegon ''the depressed boy king'' Targaryen
What happened to Alicent?
Lived out hating the color green and remembering helena and died of a fever.
It was viserys fault. If he just married laena or he let daemon married rhaenyra the realm would be at peace
Wait I thought Aegon III married Daenera Velaryon and they had Baelor the bless
This is aegon II big man
AEGON II killed Rhaynera right
Yup, he had her fed to his dragon
That's Aegon ll ( Aegon the old) and Rhaynera's Aegon, is the young.?
@@shaunpaulsen7960 yes
I Agree
I think he poisoned himself.
He probably did
Aegon was relentless. Brave, but burned. Broken, sickly but wrothfull. He persevered. He was too angry to die before Rhaenyra would. He killed the usurper whore and then his watch ended. What a man.
Riiiiiiiight 🙄
He was the usurper. And Daemon owned that little shit you have for a pfp
I can see your a smart man
@@ogeraldo1388if Daemon didn’t do that kamikaze move that little shit would have owned Daemon
@@matthewlee4697he’s right
Yeah kingsguard never kill their king.
Goddammit
2024 fam I just couldn’t wait on my momma I couldn’t🤣
Viserys is the epitome of this old saying: “weak men make hard times”
I m pretty sure it's daemon who killed aegon ll because his body was never found and he is master at hiding lol
😂 did they find anybody I wonder how as am sure they didn't have scuba diving back then😂
Can’t wait to see Aegon II DIE!
In my book, the one who deserves to be called the king is the one who fights for his throne, leads the armies himself and does not hide in his court and let others fight instead of him. During the dance of the dragons, Aegon was the brave king who fights by himself. As for Rhaenyra, she cowardly hid in her court, sending others to fight instead of her. Unlike Aegon, she never participated in any battle.. Therefore, for me, Aegon was the true king.
you're not very intelligent, then.
"do you think good soldiers makes good kings?" - Renly
so between a person who's fit to rule and a person who's "strong" (hiding behind his brother's dragon), you go for strength?
rhaenyra is a woman, so it's not really smart to put her to fight other men, especially when her dragon is not a battle dragon nor is big enough to fight any of her enemies' dragons.
Aegon was cruel and didn't give a shit about killing his own blood, while Rhaenyra tried everything she could to avoid blood (she even forgave Alicent and Helaena after she took king's landing and refused to kill them). she was willing to forgive Aegon and Aemond if they bent the knee, while Aegon... well.
@@Nihilanth
If you really read my comment very well you would know that I never said that Aegon was a good king. Both Aegon and Rhaenyra were bad rulers and a reason of their family's weakness in the long run. My comment was about who was the bravest and who was willing to put himself in direct danger in order to secure the throne, and without a doubt Aegon was that person. I don't think I need to explain why I say that, because Im sure that every reader of the novel knows very well what Aegon did throughout the war to win the throne for himself.
@@khlfful yeah, he killed his own kin and tried to hatch an dragon egg by sitting on it, what a brave king.
rhaenyra didn't get the chance to rule so we don't get to say if she was going to be a good queen or not. when she took king's landing, the capital was financially broken due to all the gold the greens stole, that made her short reign look terrible
True
@@Nihilanththe Greens didnt 'steal' gold. They just hid the treasury from the Blacks. Rhaenyra would have spend it all on cake and roasted pigs
So he's basically Jofferey baratheon(lannister)
Kills our fav main character. And gets poison
He atleast fought his battles and before his crazy injuries wasn't so bad.
@@arqu6874 Rhaenyra is woman who had suffer miscarriage, aegon did not. Her body was unfit to fight
@@mythsmiracles aegon whole body got burned and crippled and he still fought on a dragon with baela
I question the sanity of anyone who read that book and considered Rhaenyra their fav main character. Like I have seldomly come across a more spoiled, entitled, dumb and unlikeable brat than her. She had zero positive admirable traits making her worthy of the throne.
I feel like you should rewrite the name of this video. I didn't read fire and blood because I didn't wanted to spoil myself on HotD. But now I know that aegon 2 will be poisoned. And I didn't looked up this video or I'm not subscriber to your channel, it just popped up in my flow.
It’s possible it could have different ending. The shoes typically follow the show completely. You might be surprised down the line
Story of dance of the dragons has been out years before HoTD , your incompetence is simply on you Lad .
@@michaelgarcia8459 not really, simply searching GOT vids will cause this to pop up In your feed.
Hopefully the series ends with Jamie stabbing the mad king👀 lolol.
The usurper aegon II the phony king
Your comment is funny cuz history remembers Aegon 3(Rhynera and Daemon's son) as the successor of Aegon 2, while Rhynera is considered a usurper.
@@rohanshende4338 pretty crazy bc viserys named rhaenerya the heir how is she a usurper lol
@@mackenzieyoung5306 The laws of men state that the First born son becomes the king.
I'm not the one calling her a usurper. In the books she is remembered as that.
@@rohanshende4338 anyways the usurper aegon II
@@mackenzieyoung5306 Who cares about your comments? The world knows Rhynera as Usurper.
That’s the perfect pic of the lord Corlys, not the HBO crazy woke culture one.
Steve toussaint is doing a magnificent job as corlys, fuck off you racist
So Because they casted a black actor you call it woke huh?? Seeing a black person on a screen hurts your eyes that much you mf Just say you’re a racist piece of trash & f*ck off.
Based
The moral of the story is: It's no fun being a King or Ruler, not to mention it's a very dangerous career undertaking. Having said that... here's hoping a dragon shows up in Russia and makes toast of Putin.
Putin...was a Dragon itself
Oh wow Wishing death upon a great Statesman, very edgy, coombrained sheep. Putin is the Dragon, silly.
Wtf is wrong with you?? Why would you put spoilers in the title ffs 😡
This is the book. Fire and blood. The show might do things differently although they can’t leave any of the greens alive as they all died. From Daemon and Rhaenrya’s blood line comes Daenaerys Targaryen. With the death of queen Jaehaera in 132 AC and Death alicent in 133 AC all of Otto’s bloodline had died.
His death will be satisfying
