Hearing how the dragons Vhagar, Caraxys, and Melys used to belong to such close siblings makes the dance all the sadder.
Yep, truly tragic. Not only that, but later on, Caraxes and Vhagar would spend more time together under Daemon and Laena (and I imagine Laena and her mother flew together as well, before her marriage to Daemon, so that means Vhagar also flew with Meleys as well).
So in the end, Vhagar ends up killing her 2 younger Companions.
Exactly my sentiments as well. When you look at the series and you see all of the dragons in the first or second eps getting along. They're not growling at each other. Not going for each other's throats. Nothing. Everything was peaceful amongst all the Targaryens.
It's the blood of the dragon. The whole family is out of balance now. So of course the dragons are going to be at each other's throats as well. Such a sad thing. 😔
@@thalmoragent9344 Caraxys kinda killed Vaghar but I guess it was a double whammy
@@thalmoragent9344 😊😊
@@thalmoragent9344I didn’t even think about that. Outside of Vermithor and Silverwing we don’t get to see the bond between dragons all that much. Would give a whole new dimension to the magical creatures.
Daemon was ready to start a war for viserys. Not making daemon his hand was the first terrible decision viserys made
High praise to this video… this being over an hour I’m sure it can’t be easy…. The realm owes you a debt that can never be payed… keep the great videos coming
While longer videos need much more work, i do like the fact i can tell the story from start to finish in one hit.
@@WorldOfWesteros that's what I enjoyed so much About this video... it clearly shows to the view how the seeds of the Dance were sewn ...
How the precedent was set that no woman would should ever inherit the iron throne..
So far, I love the first season of house of the dragon, but I truly think they should’ve started with Aeagon’s conquest then did a time jump to House of the Dragon
No... what would be the point ? The earliest it should've gone back to was the reign of Jaehaerys and how happy the realm and his family was with Aemon and Baelon there. As it further shows off how much the dance ruined what he built.
@@hunterhorsehelmsley7315 Agreed, the conquest was almost 130 years before the Dance. I would very much like to see a few flashbacks of Jaehaerys and Alysanne with their children, young Viserys (and Balerion!) and Daemon with their parents, Rhaenys with her mother, touch on Saera a little, etc
it's not needed. they have to streamline for tv. plus they'd be a bunch of extra characters for no reason only to die off after a couple episodes? unless you mean, like narration, which would be an EXTRA bad decision
@@hunterhorsehelmsley7315 plus it’s cooler to build up the mythos of agegons conquest before we finally see him in action
Do you think they’ll do the entirety of fire and blood ? I think they’ll do it but not in order. I’m hoping that Egg’s story is done next.
In the future years i really wanna see a prequel "Westeros" with Aegon The Conqueror Aenys Maegor and Jaeharys and a prequel with Doom of Valyria just to see how the valeryons and targaryens rised from the most unpopular families to the strongest
The Reign of King Jaehaerys is like, the dream of any Monarch, or even peasant. Granted, there's a few tragedies involved, in regards to personal family matters. But politically, handled like a champ.
THe only thing i can think to really criticize hims for is allowing the succession crisis to happen in the first place. He was a political savvy king, so must have foreseen damage a succession crisis could do. The Great Council was seen as a president, but Jaehaerys should have put something written in laws regarding how succession works and not leave to interpretation from two sides with clear bias
@@WorldOfWesteros
I agree with this, actually. You make a very valid point.
Once the Great Council had made their decision, he should've enacted that decision as essentially law.
Basically saying something on the lines of;
"In regards to inheritance of the Iron Throne, Male Primogeniture is the basis on which Westerosi Succession shall be based upon. Unless there are no other male options, be it by death, disputed heritage (potential bastard), or disinheritance, a woman cannot inherit the Iron Throne above her male family members. However, shall there be a case in which the firstborn son of the Lord or King in question be deemed unfit to rule, a Council of Petitions may be heard for the favor of a male member further down the line of succession"
So, by the time of Viserys' reign, he'd have no choice but to name Aegon II the heir. Now, if Aegon II still wasn't down with being King, he could request to cite this Law to the Small Council, and abdicate his position to his younger brother Aemond. Which, in all honesty, may have been the best possible outcome for the sake of House Targaryen and a truly decent reign over Westeros if I do say so myself.
Your thoughts?
I think this is a case of George having to fit the narrative of fire and blood retroactively around what was already established about the dance of the dragons. If he had Jaehaerys make succestion clear in laws after 101, the narrative of the dance of the dragons just would not work. It makes sense for jaehaerys character to have made male primogeniture law after naming Baelon and later 101, but it doesn't make sense for what was already set up for the dance. The biggest factor the green use to there favor when crowing aegon ii is the ruling of the great council of 101 as it sets male Primogeniture as the precedent. But precedent is not the same as law and without that law the dance was inevitable and at the whim of Viserys Targaryen, who's word is law at this point without a pre-established law. therefore we end up with the black and greens who in my view both have some very strong points when it comes to their claims to the throne. So you need that oversight by Jaehaerys to allow the story to function. At the end of the day, i think Jaehaerys thought setting the precedent was enough and could not predict the situation with Aemma Arryn's death and Vissy T remarrying opening the door to a succession crisis
@@WorldOfWesteros
Agreed on all accounts, I suppose it would make sense to have Jaehaerys essentially believe that "yeah, this precedence has been set so, there we go, all settled", without technically making it law.
So yeah, in order for the Dance to have happened with the rival parties both having strong claims, then a set Succession Law would've undermined that narrative.
Or I guess, it would've made it less of a civil war and more so just Rhaenyra starting a Rebellion, cause if the law was set for Male Primogeniture then she and Viserys wouldn't have had as much a leg to stand on, and so there's less nuance cause then you'd have a strong argument that the Greens were following the actual law, and so the Dance isn't as muddled and nuanced. Kind of takes the fun out of the topic of a Civil War, in terms of writing
Can't wait to see the Good Queen Alyssane Targaryen!
In season 2? Sorry this family pretzel is going to give me a stroke… isn’t she already dead? I’m sorta having an aegon moment. Either I got wax in my ears or ur certain the old kings dead wife will be in it ..unless there is more than one alyssane and I mixed someone up?..help my stoke of confusion pls lol
@@Pixie66. Alysanne is already dead, so unless they do some flashbacks then she won't show up in House of the Dragon.
Alyssa is such a mood, lived life to the fullest and didn’t take shit from anyone.
Woah! Already know this is going to be a banger!
Been looking forward to this one!
Love these!
Great stuff as always thank you
These videos are so well done, thank you!
Glad you like them!
The north stand with you as you recount the events of the kingdoms ups and downs.
I love the content of this channel. As I have said many times, great video. I have enjoyed watching this channel over the course of nine months. I cannot praise the quality of this channel and videos enough. Excellent video as always. 👍
Much appreciated!
Love your videos man 👏 the artwork is beautiful as always. 7 blessings 👨👦👷♀️⚔️👩👦👧👵💀
Great video!!
I know that’s right jaehaerys was definitely “ the wise “ he knew that Baratheon and Mom was trying to take his throne
Love this!
Where can I find that map in the back ground, I love the detail and would love to see the whole thing
Thank you for all the hard work you put into making these videos.
Glad you like them!
love your videos! would you ever consider uploading them as a podcast on Spotify or podcast apps? I love listening to these when I'm doing chores and although the videos are lovely the audio alone would be good too!
Viserys 1 was stupid. He sought to undo the very precedent that gave him the throne. I always say, by him naming Rhanerys his heir, he invalidated his own claim and shouldve abdicated there and then and Laenor become King
If the Old king made Viserys and Rhaenys as husband and wife. No great council. No Dance of the Dragons
Rhaenys was already married to Corlys when his eldest son and heir Aemon died.
alyssa saying that about being "made for" childbirth and then dying because of it shortly after is so fucked. george really leaned heavy on the horror of the targ dynasty even at its most surface-level floweryness
I would honestly love for House of the Dragon to spawn spinoffs about the reigns of various notable Targaryen kings that would be awesome
most excellent!
a blessed holy Wednesday po from the Philippines 😘🌷 watching you often 💛💕🤞💗💖💓❣️🛐🫶😘🌷
Thank you so much .. such a quality video
Glad you liked it!
Where can I find this map?
Let's be honest no one gives a damn why maegor died everyone is just glad it happened
Note to self, Master of Whispers is not trustworthy. Time to get a vpn.
Ahh! The names! lol how many Aegons are there?! lol it’s so confusing
five king's and thee princes i think. Aegon The Uncrowned is always a tricky one that people get confused about.
@@WorldOfWesteros yes indeed because I would assume like Aegon the II lol
There is a lot more dragon blood in House Baratheon than from only Orys. The 3rd head of the dragon could be Gendry or Edric Storm for all we know
I blame Viserys the peaceful. At every point he got an opportunity to change it, he chose that moment to flex his "strength", his brother would have been better at protecting the house and maybe his heir, the kingdom.
I could listen to English folks talk about AOIAF stuff all day 😆
Imagine how easy this would be for non-book readers to understand if all the characters throughout the Targaryen dynasty just all had different names. I can only imagine the pure bliss of comprehension that would result in. All I ask is for strangely named characters to have very clear distinctions in their names, I don't think that's too much to ask. I'm not particularly a fan of generic names but what I wouldn't give for more Targaryens to think of original names for their children instead of recycling old ones whose stories never ended well anyway. I never got the logic of naming a baby after someone who died early in their life, sounds like an entirely bad omen to me which I guess proved to be true in the end for the Targs.
Perhaps but in reality, royalty just love to repeat names to honor their ancestors. And unlike Europeans, some modern day monarchs don't even use ordinals.
The saddest fate is Poor Viserys
Corlys I’m angry and insulted am Quitting and leaving for Driftmark😂 that’s the Sea snake move
23:48
Too bad Viserys was a fraction of the Targaryen his grandmother and grandfather were. Good Queen Alysanne would have been so damn proud of Rhaenyra though, regardless of her defeat.
Interesting Targaryens had green eyes so does Tyrion Lannister could he be dannys sibling after all
No. Targaryens have lilac colored eyes.
@@JuicebyJay yes they have the notorious valaryion purple but are know to have multicolored eyes which has included green
Targaryen and their uncreative naming scheme.. very confusing sometimes!!
Aemon let his daughter Rhaeny's (16) marry Corly's (36) and died some time later himself at 37... 🤮
Viserys 2 was a better King than Jaharys. Prove me wrong
I think he is up there, hopefully his reign with get fleshed out more in fire & blood volume 2
Leanor was a baby and a long Regency is a disaster. The show did it better when it was between Rheanys and Viserys
Aww you and your lady are adorable
