  • When you look back at the history of Westeros with the power of hindsight the impact the common born girl Jenny Of Oldstones had can't be downplayed. Her marriage to Prince Duncan Targaryen the eldest son and heir of King Aegon V not only caused an uprising and a long list of political issues for the king, but set an example for King Aegon's other sons. When Jenny was allowed to come to court her friend, a wise woman known as the ghost of high heart would give Prince Jaehaerys as prophesy that would forever change the fate of Westeros and House Targaryen.

    I like how Aegon V's sons all had uncommon relationships for the Targaryens at that point in time:
    Duncan married a common girl and gave up his claim to the throne.
    Jaehaerys II returned to Targaryen incest which when I thought about it hadn't happened in the direct line of succession for generations. Previously, Aegon V, Maekar I, and Daeron II all married non Targaryen women.
    And lastly Daeron was rumored to be gay which was also unique with the Targaryens and died with his lover

    - Jenny of old stones the song I heard for the first time when Podric sings it at Winterfell..
    Love that song that song & The Rains Of castamere by Serj Tankian from System Of A Down.
    I’ve wanted to know the story behind this woman..
    Didn’t Rhaegar sing a song about her at the Great Tourney at Harrenhall?
    This is a video I’ve been waiting for !!

    If only Duncan the Tall had been able to give his namesake a few clouts in the ear. Imagine going into combat against a man who helped save your life because the son of your friend and sworn king had selfishly insulted him. Also let’s not forget poor Rhaelle-while it seems the marriage turned out well enough she was plucked from her home and sent off to the home of a proud man who had just rebelled against her family.

      This is a big mistake. Aegon Targaryan should have killed the Baratheons and should not have allowed his daughter to marry a traitor. If Aegon 5 had killed the Baratheons, Robert would not have killed Rhaegar.

      @@user-uf9lz5wz4n if he had massacred the Baratheons it would’ve been almost as bad as Aerys II killing the Starks. Lyonel agreed to single combat to settle the rebellion after minimal bloodshed. He could’ve executed Lyonel and reduced the Baratheons power by forcing Ormund to implement his reforms, and maybe that would’ve been smarter but wiping out the house would’ve led to chaos.

    High in the halls of the kings who are gone
    Jenny would dance with her ghosts
    The ones who'd been gone for so very long
    She couldn't remember their names
    They spun her around on the damp old stones
    Spun away all her sorrow and pain
    And she never wanted to leave
    Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
    They danced trough the day and into the night
    Trough the snow that swept through the hall
    From winter to summer to winter again
    'Til the walls dud crumble and fall
    And she never wanted to leave never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
    And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
    High in the halls of the kings who are gone
    Jenny would dance with her ghosts
    The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
    And the ones
    Who had loved her the most

    I'd be very interested to see this part of Targaryen history in HOTD. I pity Aegon the Unlikely since his 5 children resulted in 4 broken betrothals. Yes, Egg chose love himself but he wasn't in line for the throne then. He tried to take his brother Aemon's advice to "kill the boy and let the man be born" once he became king but that failed miserably

    • @WorldOfWesteros
      @WorldOfWesteros  Před 28 dny

      i do think a lot of the issues he faced as king was down to the very fact he was never expected to be king and thus didn't have the preparation others heirs did. Maybe if Maekar had lived longer things may have played out differently.
