The same little boy
Two messy bitches who love drama
Aemond and little Aenyra (he is 42 and she is 3)
I think Aemond loves his children very much. If he had a loving family, he would be able to replenish the love he lost in childhood already in adulthood. As it usually happens "i will be another parent, better than mine".
hotd purposefully making all the greens look incompetent af to highlight how great their TB protagonists are in return backfires so hard it's actually funny.
in the book the greens were a powerhouse, they had the best warrior, the bigger army, great political minds on their side, the bigger dragons and strong competent riders to ride them. they were a threat. the show making them all stupid makes rhaenyra & the rest of tb look so weak and stupid in return. like you can't even win against those guys? really? also it shows how rhaenyra is a poorly written character - it is necessary to ruin other characters like alicent, aegon, daemon and aemond for her to appear smart & capable.
listen i am not a very smart person but am i supposed to assume Helaena is more angry at Aemond than at Deamon who MURDERED HER SON????
I want to start off with who I think laid Maelors egg
I think it came from either Morghul and Shrykos mating or just Shrykos laying an egg
We know that Shrykos is female and the only way to know that a dragon is female is if they lay eggs meaning at some point she laid eggs
According to the artist who illustrated the "Storming of the Dragon Pit" from Rise of the Dragon, Shrykos is "copperish" while many think of copper as a orange-ish color it CAN be green and if you consider that the name Shrykos likely comes the creatures "Shrykes" who are said to be beings with green-scaled skin that is hint to Shrykos possibly being green
So this could mean that Morghul and Shrykos or just Shrykos laid an egg and that egg was given to their bonded's little brother Maelor, it should also be noted that Maelors egg is not described as a cradle but rather that he was just given an egg
Maelors dragon egg was also described, very rarely are eggs described in this series especially eggs that "don't matter" later, so rare in fact I can't currently think of one
The description for the egg is also similar with the description of the last dragon
"Maelor's egg was pale green with swirls of silver."
"The last dragon was a green female, who lived in Kings Landing. She was small and stunted, with withered wings."
They are both green meaning that her egg likely wouldve been green and his egg likely wouldve hatched into a green dragon
According to this interaction between a fan and Elio in 2014, we might learn more about Maelor in the Dunk and Egg series if it's ever completed, this is also the series that mentions the last dragon the most so that is possibly why we could find out more about him
Sneak-Peek at the header to my Brother Day (Cleon XVII) x y/n (f!ancient!reader) fanfic I'm writing right now. Trying to experiment with cryonics for this one, let's see how this goes lol! Currently proofreading.
people are treating grrm post like it's just another opinion on the source material. girl no. he wrote the fucking source material. when he tells you that hel was beloved of the smallfolk and rhaenyra was not it's not his opinion it's a fact. when he tells you that the people of KL rebelled and sought justice for hel it's not an opinion it's a fact. making posts quoting the author's work trying to prove why acshually hel was not that important nor was she that loved and that gwurlbos qween rhae-rhae was acshally loved so much by the people of king's landing because the people in her father's court named her "the realm's delight" when she was 5yo. be so fr The Cope.
y'all are always talking about feminism so why are you so bothered by the idea that another woman that is not rhaenyra was loved and important? why are so bothered by the idea that Queen Helaena was an important character and the entire population of KL fought for her?
anyways, in the words of GRRM - "Queen Helaena was loved. Rhaenyra was not."
"helaena? she does not ride, she has no taste for it."
