    What makes Meleys death even more sad is that her previous rider was Daemon and Visery’s Mom and Vhagars previous rider before Leana was Daemon and Visery’s father. Vhagar and Meleys once flew together as a family in an era of peace and now they are fighting in a civil war of their own, not just the targaryans civil war, plus if you look at the family line of the dragons Meleys is technically Vhagars granddaughter

    It's even more weird when you realize he didn't start sleeping with Alicent until she was the Queen Dowager and moved out of her apartments into Rhaenyra's old room. So this is the only room in the Red Keep where Cole has ever had sex, and he's screwing Alicent in the same bed where he screwed Rhaenyra. Kinda makes you wonder which woman he is thinking about when he's in that bed...

    I don't think the series has portrayed what you mention very well. If Vhagar is slow then how did he catch up to his half brother's dragon and kill it? Also I don't understand why Rhenys turned back to fight Vhagar again if he's slow. She didn't sound very confident when she told Meleys to turn back to fight. It was as if she didn't feel like she had a choice. I thought she had to turn back to fight because she was afraid of Vhagar following and catching up to them.

Rhaenys had an actual chance to end the war there and then if she had managed to kill or seriously wound Vhagar. Even if she had died in process she would have won the war. That is why she went back.

    I give this show such massive credit for making the narrative so compelling, but the fact is, they can't change the big events. I heard Aemond mention Rook's Rest, and it was, like, oh sh*t! Rhaenys is gonna die fighting both of them. They're basically narrating a history book. The events, and deaths, have to happen where they happen, and in a specific order.

  • @scotthadden9816

    I recall seeing somewhere that the showrunners, maybe Martin as well, mentioned that the book is a biased, outdated, mostly unreliable, in-universe text, made over 150 years after the fact, based on four (but really, three) different individuals accounts on events, none of which line up in any way, but for the most major events of the war, and that the show was supposed to be the events as they happened, no personal or historical bias distorting the perspective. So seeing that Aemond's first attempt at fratricide (improved, as well, because the drunken lout wasn't even supposed to BE there) gets remembered as a necessary strategy in a key battle, taking out the second most dangerous dragon of the opposing army, is a nice spin on the limitations of historical texts, much like how Viserys was quite different book to show.

    One commenter said it best in another video: Everyone is so excited for dragon on dragon violence until we hear Sunfyre cry in pain and realize this more like dogs fighting than tanks battling. These are living creatures, not merely vehicles of war. And no, Cole didn't make a unicorn horn for his horse. Not technically. The metal headpiece of horse armor, the chanfron, often had a spike added to it as extra protection for the horse, but it was, yes, often meant to symbolize a unicorn since they were known as wild and powerful beasts. Kind of the same as putting a spiked collar on a big dog, it's there to make the horse look tough, and it's a common piece, not just on Cole's horse.

While it is understandable that Cole and Aemond wanted to keep Vhagar a secret, how do you keep this plan away from your King. Big miscalculation by Cole who was serving Aegon.

    This episode really made me feel bad for Aegon. Alicent skewers him with the question, "Did you think wearing that crown would imbue you with wisdom?" But the same question could and should be turned back on her. She and Otto ruled in Viserys' name for years, but neither of them brought him to the council meetings as a teenager and groomed him for the role, the way Viserys did with Rhaenyra. Otto worked so hard to keep Daemon out of Viserys' council because Daemon was the stronger brother, but he didn't do the same for Aegon so Aemond has been sitting in council worming his way in until he, like you pointed out, metaphorically castrates Aegon in front of everyone. Yes, Aegon was an asshole to him in the brothel, but at least he had the excuse of being drunk. And then Alicent goes on to tell Aegon he is useless and he should just sit there and be a puppet king. OF COURSE he resents Otto and Alicent butting in on his decisions, they absolutely ignored him in the years when they SHOULD have been teaching him, and when he tried to do good things for the people, they cut him off at the knees, making it where he pronounced something in public but then had to take it back in public, too. With every public dressing down they give this young man, they make him look weak or they call him weak, so they are pushing him to prove that he is a man and can make decisions on his own. Alicent says to take the advice of his councilors, and when he asks her on the edge of tears what she would have him do, she cuts him down instead of giving him real advice. She is pissed at herself that she helped put Aegon on the throne when she knew even when he was a teenager that he wasn't fit for it. But she is taking it out on him.

    The Andals brought the religion of the faith of the seven to westeros. The first men where there first and they believed in the old gods. They fought for thousands of years before the Andals took over most of the seven kingdoms except the north. Thats why the olds gods and most of the weirwood trees are still prominent in the north. The Targaryens dont really believe in the faith or the old gods either. They only act like they believe in the faith of the seven because when the Aegon the conquerer took over, the Andals were in power in most of the seven kingdoms and mostly everyone now believes in the faith except the north. Edit: Yes the Andals came from Essos. They were chased out by Old Valyria.

    When you saw Aemond and Vhagar and realized Cole's plan, you had basically the same response that I had - horror and dread on behalf of Rhaenys. Even writing this now, the day after I first watched the episode, I am still getting choked up at her loss. I love this show and the actors are all nailing their roles, by Rhaenys is far and away my favorite. Once she saw Vhagar was there, we can't know for sure if she could have gotten safely away (injuries, flying speeds, all sorts of variables), but it's totally consistent with her aims since the war erupted for her to stay and try and make the sacrifice play, she and Malys injured Vhagar after all. Vhagar crashed to the ground from her injuries while Malys and Rhaenys maneuvered up and prevented their own crash after that serious stroke they scored on Vhagar. As far as she knows, she has helped take out Aegon and Sunfyre already - or at least grievously injured them - if she can injured Vhagar enough or take out Aemond (taking Vhagar off the Green team's arsenal) then she would have done what she was wanted most here... to end the war with the least possible deaths in the shortest time and serving the win to Rhaenyra and team Black. Even if it cost her her own life and Malys. It didn't quite work out that way, but they had a shot here and she can't have been sure she would have escaped if she ran, so she took the shot. For her side and for the realm, she judged this the best choice and was clearly willing throughout to put her own safety aside to get it. One of the things about this I am most moved by is how much this - and many of her other choices - show us that when the council chose Viserys over the Queen Who Never Was at Harrenhall all those decades ago, they made the wrong choice. One of the countless tragedies afoot in this story. The show has such great writing. I really think they've upped their game since the also excellent first season. This episode hurt. But exactly in the way I want tragedies to hurt as an audience member. That dragon battle wasn't an action scene, it was a war scene, meaning it was all dread and loss and me shouting "no no no" at my TV. As it should be. War is a horror and everyone it touches is damaged forever. Thank you for your reaction - I always look forward to yours most of all for HOTD especially. Liked and shared.

    Rhaenys has attacked again and again, because the accusations that Deamon has made to her several times have stuck with her. What she missed to do with Aegon back then, she wanted to finish here with Vaghar and Aegon this time. It would have been better for Aegon if he hadn't humiliated Aemond last time. It was foreseeable that Rhaenyra would die. However, Aemond was pleased with his brother's presence. Two birds with one stone. That's why he went up to his brother with his sword drawn to finish the job, but then Cole came along and he put the sword away. And of course, Aegon is still alive. In any case, he is not burned, because he is a Tagaryan and they don't burn so easily. He will have broken many bones, may be comatose, may never be able to walk again, but he is not dead. Otherwise, his body would have been shown longer and more obviously. The impression was to be given that he was dead.

    I loved Rhaenys, but she did this to herself. Meleys is at least twice as fast and maneuverable as Vhagar, riding her anywhere near where Vhagar could ambush her instead of staying constantly out of reach was a rookie mistake worthy of Luke. Not to mention the fact that the battle was done, the army was annihilated, there was no reason at all for her to hang around loitering. Either she was stupid or the writers were.

    Maybe you didn't realise but Meleys was wounded, she couldn't fly as fast as before, she had a wounded wing and a claw, so she couldn't fly faster than Vaghar, so Rhaenys had no choice to fight, but when she was going to turn around she was caught by surprise, dragons are living creatures, the mount is not stable, like in a horse, you not have a 360 degree view of your surroundings, I have to say that at difference from other media is a very realistic portray of riding a Dragon, is not smooth sailing.

    In the book, the ambush is orchestrated by Aemond, Aegon and Criston together, but the show wants to make Aegon look as stupid and incompetent as possible, so we got his instead. It is clearly stated that Meleys might have had a chance if it had only been Vhaegar, but Sunfyre makes the difference and the two brothers together take her down. Rhaenys is so epic in the book she takes on two dragons and injures one to within an inch of his life, but here she is just suicidal for some reason and keeps returning having two chances to get away and regroup which just makes her look idiotic tbh.
