    Jaehaerys' reign is probably my favourite period in all of ASOIAF, I really hope we one day get a show about it; particularly his early reign and drama regarding his children. The death of Alyssa Velaryon, Alysanne in the North, everything about Rhaena's tragic life, there's so much there to draw from.

    Rhaena never wanted to usurp Jaehaerys. In fact, she supported his claim over Maegor even though she actually had the better claim. She hated politics and King's Landing. She was done with that life. My heart breaks for Rhaena. She had such a hard life: father screwed her and her brother over with his incompetent rule, husband killed, separated from her daughters, forced to marry the uncle who killed her husband. Her brother and sister pretty much swooped in to take the throne even though her daughter had the better claim. Her mom dies before they can reconcile. Girlfriends are all either killed or leave her. AND on top of all that, her daughter dies horrifically. I've seen a lot of people place blame on Rhaena for her estranged relationship with her daughters but it's not surprising given they needed to be separated for so long. Plus Rhaena gives me big autistic/adhd vibes: she dearly loved her animals, close friends, and family but just had trouble expressing it.

    • @duskymoor9
      @duskymoor9 Před 10 měsíci +23

      My sympathy for Rhaena ended w/ her treatment of Andro Farman, whom was clearly a useful idiot , as her beard against suspicions of her and Elissa's relationship. His is a life of tragedy as well. I can't help but envision him as a kind of "Napoleon Dynamite" who thought he was escaping Fair Isle with his sister and her girlfriend, only to find a life of more derision and obsolescence on Dragonstone, amongst the hyper-privileged and spoiled. While it doesn't excuse his homicides, I don't think his treatment at Rhaena's court makes her losses of hangers-on entirely sympathetic.

      Well...there *is* that one scene between Rhaena & Alyssanne the night before Aerea steals away with Balerion. Rhaena & Aera had a huge fight because Alyssanne had agreed to let Aera return to KL with her. Aera was bored on Dragonstone and she dearly missed the excitement of living at court and being the recognized heir. But Rhaena tells her sister, "you have my throne and my crown, you want my daughter as well? Well, you will not have her!"
      I think there was *some* bitterness in Rhaena over all she had lost, even if she DID hate politics and King's Landing.

    Rhaena never tried to overtake the seat of his brother. It was expected for him to be king above her most probably, but she was just mad that Aerea which was the daughter of Aegon the eldest male in the family that had been killed by their uncle Maegor was put aside in the succession. In fact, later Rhaena and her sibblings reconciliated and got along (specially after Rhaella had chosen to become a septa and Aerea had died).

    • @videobooks3
      @videobooks3  Před 11 měsíci +9

      That's fair, but had Aerea controlled Balerion, her and Rhaena could have easily taken the Iron Throne, which is what Aerea wanted and Rhaena knew that

    • @ShadowShroud7
      @ShadowShroud7 Před 10 měsíci +2

      It should be pointed out that Rhaena herself supported Jaehaerys' claim against Maegor over her own daughter after escaping Maegor. So she can be mad about Aerea being passed over if she wants, but its partially her own doing as well.

    • @ickyfist
      @ickyfist Před 6 měsíci +1

      She didn't try because she knew it was futile. No one liked her whereas Jahaerys was loved. She had no power. She was obviously very bitter and felt the throne was hers by right but she was too mentally defeated to bother doing anything about it.

    @thewerdna Před 11 měsíci +58

    I don't buy the poisoning incident with Rheana being part of the conspiracy, only because the motive seems incredibly weak. At that point she was so far out of the line of succession that they would have had much more pressing targets. She was almosy certainly not worth the effort, so I think Andro worked alone there, maybe with thst Maester being involved only. I just can't see the conspiracy bothering with such an pointless plot when they had bigger things to worry about. Too little gain for the effort, especially on such a sloppy plan

    • @videobooks3
      @videobooks3  Před 11 měsíci +10

      That's fair, but where would Androw get the poison from and how would he get enough of it to poison all of Rhaena's friends? The Tears of Lys is extremely expensive and hard to come by

    I think this video is fantastic and while I don’t agree with every theory, it’s presented really well and definitely did justice to perhaps my favourite part of the book. Also, always happy to see a fellow Aussie making ASOIAF content!
    My only critique is that you misread words or mispronounce them about once every second on-screen page. I’m not talking about in-universe names/places/words, if that helps.
    I’m talking about relatively mundane words like ‘learned’ and ‘menagerie’. I’m only mentioning it because it was quite frequent and I think it would elevate your already fantastic videos to maybe slow down a little so you don’t accidentally misread words or practice reading what you’re recording for the session out loud if you reasonably can to cut down on those mistakes.
    We all come up against words we mispronounce or aren’t familiar with, it’s unavoidable. Nobody’s perfect, we all make mistakes. I used to work professionally as an actor and did a lot of voiceover work for radio and TV.
    Because of that I know what it’s like to record dialogue for hours. It’s harder than most people realise. What a lot of people don’t realise is how much pressure there is to do things both correctly and quickly in voice acting. Professionally, it’s because booth time is expensive. With CZcams you have the same pressure but it’s due to far more complex things like upload deadlines and balancing other projects or a job, and audience pressure/expectation.
    Many CZcamsrs also have to deal with writing, editing and all the other production aspects on their own or with minimal help. All I ever had to do was audition, familiarise myself with the script and show up to record so I have so much respect for everything you put into your content.
    I also think must be infinitely harder with an internet audience constantly pointing out your mistakes. I know I’m literally doing that, but I’m honestly not trying to be a dick. I normally wouldn’t bring it up but because it happened consistently and I felt like I could contribute more than just ‘you’re making mistakes’, which is never helpful.
    I know that was kind of an essay but I really don’t want to nitpick or be a negative asshole so I would rather overexplain than just give critique that could easily be seen as bad faith nitpicking.
    People are really savage about those kinds of mistakes, and I’ve noticed people can be especially brutal when people do ASOIAF readings like you’re doing, so I’m sorry if this feels like I’m contributing.
    I subscribed and really hope you continue making amazing videos as in depth as this one and your others.

      @user-tm6vj5dl2k Před 5 měsíci

      Eh... There are more important stories to tell Aegons story, is no different than any conqueror, except he has dragons, never really conquered the 7 kingdoms and his dream, "song of ice and fire", which could have just been him, losing his mind in his own way... Mad king shows it is possible and the saying "every time a Targaryen is born, the Gods flip a coin". All that's important about him, was he introduced dragons to the north, using them to get the thrown and if his dream, was truly a vision or he just believed it was. First of the first men, is a much more important story, since they were the first conquerors and fought against the children of the forest. Learning who the CoTF made into the night king is at the top of the list of importance and why did beings, who used magic on someone, but created a villain to all living things, they couldn't control is up there as well. Aegons dream could have been just a dream, the song of ice and fire, had 1000 years, to be partially true, since it seems so many families share blood to a degree, that the chances of his ancestors and a stark would have a kid. He wasn't the prince that was promised (based on the movie), John Snows name, was apparently cursed, according to irgit and many other things, that make it seem like, he just believed it was a vision. The 3 eyed Raven could have also interfered with him, making him believe he had "the vision". I just don't think his conquest would be as worth learning about as so many other things. Like Valeria, up to it's fall, the wars starting with the FoTFM and the CoTF or even the current show, which is leading us to believe, all of these great houses, past and present, have actually crossed blood lines at some point. I mean heck, I was surprised learning the barathatheons, shared blood with the Targaryens. Those alone have so much that can be explained and answered, including anything about Aegons conquest, so it's be better to do Targaryens, pre conquest and who knows, maybe grey scale being their fall, could be related to other magical beings, forcing them to fight their own "white walkers", because they didn't leave to conquer, they left, because they lost their home... Heck, even with their dragons, whatever happened, it was MUCH easier to conquer 6 of 7, kingdoms in the north, than it was to save their own home. Sir jorah could have cut them down by himself, if he had his sword, while taking tyrian. Just my thoughts though
