    Ok so House Of The Dragon is about to change the Game...Of Thrones and Episode 9 has a lot going on with it. The penultimate episode takes focus on the lean green Queen machine and it cements her villain arc and quest for power. In this video we're gonna be breaking down what happens in it, the easter eggs, book differences and also giving our thoughts what could happen in the finale next week.
    This has been a massive season and I wanna thank you for all your support so far. We recently got our million subscriber plaque and it means more to me than a seat on the Iron Throne so I really appreciate it.
    Now the episode is called The Green Council and this term was coined by Grand Maester Munken in the book. The name brings a lot with it as it of course shows how this once unbiased council has now been twisted by alicent into supporting her side.
    Whereas the previous episodes all centred around Chapter 12 we are now in 13 which is titled the Dying Of The Dragons The Blacks Vs Greens. This war between the houses took place between 129 - 131 AC and the two years featured lots of deaths and the characters treating the Iron Thron like it's a game of musical chairs.
    The period is known as the dance of the dragons but in the book its said that the phrase Dying of The Dragons is more suitable. The work is very much a chronicle of this time told to us by witnesses and maesters and it states that due to them trying to add a poetic flair to the story that they changed it to Dance.
    However it's an extremely brutal period that's described as seeing several of the last dragons being wiped out. The source material says it was a war marked by stealth, murder and betrayal which we see from this openining.

Not only are they a complete scam....but -- no -- you absolutely cannot "change your name on bank statements, credit cards, etc.". That's completely untrue and -- by charging money with that claim -- they're defrauding every customer.

      the first time I heard helaena say it at the family meal, I did think she was saying "you are the beast beneath the boards", and specifically addressing aegon. though on second listen, I thought she said "beware".
      also the scene earlier in episode 9 where she interrupts alicent as she's tryingto say that the king is dead made it seem a lot more like she was talking about a spy listening, because she stopped alicent from telling a secret.

      I'm not so sure about that. I'm team black but I'm very sympathetic to the show's version of Alicent and admittedly I'm biased towards her. I think she seems incredibly troubled by what Viserys said. I think she feels extreme conflict because she wishes to honor what she believes to be his wishes but sees as clearly as everyone else that Aegon is unfit to rule. She resents and almost rejects him, only held back by her instinctual mother's love. It seems like she regrets even telling her father at all. But of course, that's me interpreting Alicent in the most sympathetic lens possible as a black

    Meleys really reinforced the fact that dragons are majestic, powerful creatures, he and Rhaenys could have put an end to the insurrection with the utterance of a single command. I don't know if it was just me but there was a lot of underlying tension in literally every second and every scene in this episode, that didn't necessarily get paid off.

    I do think Viserys was offed, but it wasn't the Queen, it was Otto. When he stopped being hand, Viserys seemed like he was getting better, then after losing Strong and Otto coming back, he declined again. If Otto wasn't directly trying to kill him, he was definitely not doing him any favors on the medical side. Didn't his old Maestors come back when Otto returned? I got a bit confused on the Maestor part of who was treating him. The book has nothing about this, but I wonder if the show might hint at it or even use it as another conflict point or something, that or I am just seing crap that doesn't exist... again :)

      Yes at the end she goes to tell Rhaenyra what happened, but I don’t think that’s her taking a side. I just think that’s her doing what she thinks is the right thing to do by letting Rhaenyra know what happened and that her father is dead. She doesn’t have the crown with her by the way, one of the twins have it I think. I know in the books she takes the side of team black, I’m just going by what I see and interpret from the show since they’re not going exactly by the book. What I’ve seen from her is that she has never firmly taken a side. She has always been on her own side, doing what she thinks is right. Usually by just telling the truth like in ep 8. Now in the next episode we will probably see her become team black, but even if she is team black. I just don’t see her as someone who is full ride or die because she has issues with people on both teams. So that’s all I meant is that she like everyone on the show is a complex intricate character with more than what appears on the surface. Which is why the show is so good is that not one character is one sided, they are all gray complex characters.

    Helaena is my favorite character, I can't wait to see more of her. When she was talking about people wanting what others have, do you think she is talking about Aemond? He wants to be king and earlier in episode 7 he kinda hints that he wanted to marry Helaena. So maybe the civil war within the civil war might not be so far fetched.

      nah, the coronation would have simply been undone by her killing aegon and the rest of the greens present. everybody knew that the actual named heir was rhaenyra. the only challengers to her claim would have been aegon's incest babies. rhaenys 100% should have torched the greens, and it's highly unreasonable that she didn't.

    i feel like hotd took out the rubies for aegon because red and black are the colors of rhaenyra's team. whilst, alicent/aegon's are green, which is the only colorful color beside the crown that juxtaposes its dark color. perhaps, signifying that green will be the only color seen through this crown or rather, reign.
