The dragon Daemon was wooing was Vermithor, once ridden by old King Jaehaerys. Vermithor is the second biggest, oldest, most battle hardened, and fiercest dragon alive after Vhagar. Vermithor coils in the Dragonmont with Silverwing, once ridden by Queen Alysanne.

It's true that Vermithor is the second oldest and biggest dragon after Vhagar, but in my opinion the most battle-hardened and fiercest dragon of them all is Caraxes. Vhagar has been in battle for only 2-4 years, while Caraxes has spent almost all his life on the battlefield. Remember, just the War of the Stepstones lasted 12 years. He's so fierce that he would not hesitate to attack enemies even bigger than him.

that dragon roaring during Rhaenyra's labor was Syrax. Rhaenyra and Syrax's bond is so strong to the point that her dragon can feel everything she does. Rhaenyra was feeling betrayed, sad, angry and in pain. Rhaenyra rode syrax for the first time when she was 8, which is really impressive for a Dragonrider.

Aemond and Luke both lost control of their dragons at the end. Aemond wasn’t trying to kill him but once Arrax got « fired up » that was it for Vhagar. She wasn’t holding anything back anymore and Aemond couldn’t stop her from killing them both. I found this episode to be really emotional. First with the baby, then the crowning, and then the death of Luke. Lots of tears out of me!

Aemond WAS absolutely trying to kill Luke. He literally gave his dragon the dracarys command TWICE. That’s not some silly little command you give to take someone’s eye out. Arrax defended his rider, with the knowledge that Lucerys was scared. Vhagar is a war machine that’s been through 5+ wars and Aemond thought it was a toy he could wave around. He doesn’t get to shy away from the blame becuase he “didn’t mean it”. He did and just didn’t want to suffer any consequences

Being a mother makes childbirth worth it. I was scared during my first pregnancy, and it wasn't an easy birth, but epidurals are *chef's kiss*. I've had 3 healthy babies, one stillbirth, and one miscarriage. Somehow, our minds blur the memory of the births. I remember the emotion and holding my babies, and I have a knowledge of how painful the birth was, but I don't remember the feeling of the pain. There is no joy like feeling your baby kick and then holding your newborn. If you never have kids, that's your choice and you're definitely entitled to it, but don't let fear be the only thing holding you back. 🥰 Rhaenera wrapping the baby herself is very good writing. I held my son for 4 hours before the nurses were forced to take him away. Letting go of the baby makes it real and final. Hardest thing I've ever done is let them take him away. I know from your response to my other comment that you've seen Outlander, and the acting in season 2 when Claire lost Faith was ON POINT. I never screamed like her, but everything else was just like my experience. I ugly cried myself into a migraine watching that episode and will never watch it again because it hit me so hard.

You were correct; that was one of the unclaimed dragons Daemon spoke of at the Table. His name is Vermithor. If you remember old King Jahaerys from the premiere episode, this is his dragon. He is only surpassed in age and size by Vhagar. Another part of the reason Aemond looked so shell-shocked after Vhagar killed Luke and Arrax, is that he will now be regarded as a kin-killer. Despite their divisions, they were still family. Those who take the lives of their own blood-kin are not looked upon favorably in this realm.

What Daemon did in this episode was extremely bold, because he would not know how a dragon would react after not seeing a human for so long. Vermithor could have just incinerate Daemon right then and there, and Daemon knew it but did it nonetheless, because he realized Rhaenyra needed more dragons to have a chance to fight.

That unclaimed dragon was Vermithor, who's last rider was King Jaehaerys. He's the second biggest dragon we've seen and as terrifying as he looks, he's actually supposed to be the "friendliest" of the dragons. Which falls in line with the personality of his last rider. There's also Silverwing, who was the dragon of Jaehaerys' wife, Alysanne. Those two dragons have a bond that's similar to their riders. We also see that with Daemon and Rhaenyra's dragons. Caraxes constantly makes cooing noises at Syrax, which is wildly adorable. I love that this show is allowing the bond with dragon and rider to be further explored. We saw Caraxes feel Daemon's pain when he was shot with an arrow, Vhagar not wanting to burn Laena, Syrax when Rhaenyra is in labor, Syrax getting agitated on the bridge which alerts Rhaenyra, Arrax feels Luke's terror and attacks Vhagar. And then we have Viserys' warning in the first episode. He told us that the Targaryen's thinking they control the dragons was an illusion. Aemond, while smart and calculated, would be a terrible King. Similar to Maegor the Cruel, much like Daemon. He's a greater character, but he's not someone I would want on that throne.

The flashes of a dragon were Rhaenyra's dragon Syrax feeling Rhaenyra's pain through their shared empathic bond. I also loved the hypocrisy of Lord Borros' comments that he's not "some dog that she can whistle up at need to set against her foes" when that's precisely what sworn lords are to the monarchy. This just further proves his ignorance immediately after he had to have a maester read the letter to him.

There are a lot of very compelling characters in this show but I think Aemond is honestly one of the most interesting: he's obviously very capable but also incredibly arrogant, which manifests as cockiness - and cockiness isn't something that mixes well with dragons, especially dragons that aren't fully trained/bonded with their rider. It's also incredibly telling that, despite his aloofness and initial assurance that losing his eye was a small price to pay for a dragon, he holds a deep-seated grudge against Luke for the act - but again, we already knew about his penchant for grudges (as we saw with the pig and how he reacts to reminders of that incident). Furthermore, it's obvious that, even though he has this grudge against Luke, he doesn't actually want to kill him - the dragon chase was only meant to scare Luke, and he seemed genuinely shocked to bring about his death after losing control of Vhagar (although I suppose you could attribute this to him realizing that accidentally killing Luke is basically a declaration of war rather than him feeling actual remorse). The fact that he told someone (at least, I'm pretty sure he told someone, unless someone else happened upon Luke and Arrax's corpses, though I'm not too sure of how likely that is depending on where they fell) of Luke's death also shows - to me, anyway - an incredible amount of maturity, as he could have very easily pretended as though nothing happened. At his core, Aemond seems to have a very strong moral code - maybe not one we completely share, but a strong one nonetheless - and a strong sense of duty/responsibility that ultimately makes for a very fascinating character.

Aemond has been taught by his mother and grandfather that Luke is a bastard but he will inherit Driftmark and his mother will kill all the Hightower kids if Rheanyra ascends the throne. Be real he wanted to kill Luke but he wanted it in a slow and painfull way and gift Luke's eye to his mother. The whole Hightower family is filled with jealousy Vhagar is too old for that and recognised Luke as a Targaryen and gave him a dragons death. Vhagar should have dracarys Arax midd air and than chewed him like she and Caraxes did in episode 5.

I disagree on Aemond being able to act like nothing Happened. There were numerous Witnesses that saw Lucerys leave,followed by Aemond immediately after their their Confrontation at Storms end and the way I see it Lucerys could've been struck by a Bolt of Lightning in this Storm and the result still wouldve been the same because Viserys quote of perception being all that matters is true. All people saw was Luke and Aemond fighting,Aemond chasing Luke and then scraps of Arrax's flesh and Luke's Cape wash up on shore not long after. It doesn't take much for people to assume Aemond murdered his own family, earning the moniker Kinslayer.

The reason they had so many shots of the stillborn baby is because it was malformed, with tiny dragon hornlet bumps on the back of its head, and leathery skin on the back. It also appears to be missing at least one limb. So, just like Dany's baby, it was born part dragon. If you have the stomach to go frame by frame in those shots, you can see it. It hasn't been confirmed, but the novels hint at it multiple times, that the Valyrians have been mixed, through magic, with dragons, making "blood of the dragon" a literal statement. It's theorized that this is why targaryen children are sometimes born deformed, with dragon-like features, why some of the targs seem to be heat resistant, why they're immune to most human illnesses, and why they have a link to their dragons. The Great Empire of the Dawn, which controlled much of Essos prior to the Long Night, were the first to breed dragons. The Dawn Empire was ended by the original Long Night, and it's likely they created dragons for combat against the original White Walkers, who are pretty heavily hinted at being related to the First Men/Starks and Children of the Forest, who had formed a pact. The books don't make the order or detail of events super clear since they happened like 8000 years ago, but the first men invaded Westeros and fought the children, burning down their sacred weirwoods. I think that this is what lead to the Children creating the Others, by capturing humans and performing a ritual to put the spirit of a Weirwood into a human form, with no weaknesses to human weapons. They kicked the First Men's butt and the proto-Starks sent an emissary (the "last hero") to the Children, and they came to an agreement (the Pact), where the humans adopted the Children's religion, holding the weirwoods sacred, so they would no longer burn them down. It's unclear exactly why, after the Pact, the Long Night started, but I suspect it was because the Dawn Empire invaded Westeros themselves, and the First Men (the proto-starks) lent their bodies to create new White Walkers to combat them....which basically started an arms race and lead to the breeding of dragons and dragonriders. The Valyrians are very likely survivors of the Dawn Empire royal family, and the books state that the Dawn Empire and the Valyrian Freehold both engaged in blood magic to create hybrids of various animals and men. The dragons are thought to by wyverns crossed with firewyrms. Cross a little dragon blood into your family line and suddenly you're dragonlords.....with the downside being madness, a proclivity for burning things, and some kind of ancestral memory of the Others. (And yeah, if you think show-fans were mad about the last couple seasons of the show, they've got nothing on the book-fans....the show basically threw the entire Stark/Others/Targ/Dawn empire plotline out the window and it's literally the title of the whole series......)

Remember: Vhagar was one of the dragons who helped the Targaryens conquer Westeros. She's massive, old, battle-hardened, and mean af! The main dragon, Balerion (aka Balerion the Dread and more massive than Vhagar) was ridden by Aegon I (aka Aegon the Conquerer) and it's last rider before he died was Viserys I. He was so grief-stricken by Balerion's death that he never rode another dragon.

It has already been pointed out that the idea that the riders control the dragons is an illusion. The dragons clearly have egos and wills of their own. Another thing I might be mistaken but I don't think the White Worm is dead. Otto struck against her and was trying to silence her, but I think she survived. At least i really hope so because I enjoyed the character.

I view controlling the dragons in the same way as controlling a dog. Assuming you train them right, you can give a dog commands and they will obey. Under the right circumstances though Dogs can act against their owners wishes, such as when they are threatened. In the case of owners that don't train their dogs right some dogs will see another as prey and attack it whether their owner wants them to or not. There is obviously some control between the Riders and the Dragons, however in this circumstance Aemon was playing with (scaring) Lucerys and Arrax, like a cat playing with it's food. Arrax felt threatened and reacted to defend itself. That reaction then caused Vhagar to react. Also, Viserys is not to be taken as absolute fact. He was a weak king and did not have the personality and temperament to truly claim a dragon. At least that is my opinion of him. A good man but a horrible king.

Because of his killing Luke, Aemond will be called Aemond "The Kin Slayer". Yes, both Luke & Aemond lost control of their dragons. Arrax feeling threatened by Vhagar spat fire @ her. U know when Daemon chokes Rhaenyra saying "Dreams did not make us kings. Dragons did." The thing is a prophetic dream is what saved the Targaryens from the Great Doom (the destruction of Old Valarya), so there is some merit in their dreams. All dragon riders r bound by blood magic which gives them that empathic bond to dragons. Rhaenyra's dragon could feel her pain when it was showing the flashes of Syrax.They believed that the purer the blood the more connected they were to the dragons & to magic. That was why they had incestuous marriages. We see that connection when Daemon goes to see that dragon in that dragon pit, & they r reflected in each others eyes. For some reason that dragon's name eludes me, I just know they call him "The Cannibal". He is the 2nd oldest & 2nd largest dragon. Daemon reiterates that bond in the song he sings in Valarian to the dragon. Anyway, this was another great reaction.👍😊

11:50 It's pretty well established in the World of A Song of Ice and Fire (at least in the TV Series) that Targaryen Dragon Riders have a special connection to their Dragons. In episode 3, when Daemon, mounted on Caraxes, attacked the men of the Triarchy, at the moment the pirates' arrow hit Daemon, he cried out in pain and Caraxes did too, feeling the physical pain of his rider. In this case, the Dragon of Rhaenyra, Syrax, is the one who feels the agony of his rider due to the pains of his premature labor.

In the book it was Daemon who wanted to negotiate and avoid fighting with their dragons ("We must fight this war with words before we go to battle") while Rhaenys was the one pushing for them to use their dragons to attack. And instead of saying she needed a day to think about their offer, Rhaenyra told Aegon's messenger that she would have Aegon's throne or she would have his head. She also blamed the Greens for the death of her baby (“She was my only daughter, and they killed her. They stole my crown and murdered my daughter, and they shall answer for it”). The show seems so focused on making sure all the female characters never bear any responsibility for any of the bad things that happen, they did the same thing with Alicent.

Andy Robin you do know the book is told through a few unreliable sources right ? Most of the book is told by a grand maester ( I cant think of his name ) who was for the most part on the Greens side. Plus it had some parts supposedly witnessed by a dwarf court jester named Mushroom who made sure just about every part he told was always entertaining and then some parts were told by some septons who pretty much heard whatever parts they contributed through closed doors and by some that say they witnessed certain things. The show ( atleast so far ) is more accurate to the story. Look it up.

He did start the war by killing luke that's also why he looked so scared because he knows he started it, that last scene in the end when she finds out, her face had a look that she was done with peace and its time for battle. She said she wasn't going to make the first move, she was only waiting on the greens first. And she sees this as there first move. And no luke and aemond both lost control of there dragons. Viserys technically said if you think thank u can fully control them your wrong. And that using them for full on war can be a bad thing because in moments like this you can't control them,especially if your not trained for battle with the dragons. Which luke and aemond are not trained for neither is lukes dragon.

I am reminded of something Daenaerys once said in GoT, something to the effect of "Dragons are not slaves". Yeah Luke and Aemond had both totally lost control of their respective dragons. The only "control" anybody has over a dragon, is how much the dragon decides it wants them to have. After Aemond started threatening Luke's dragon, the much smaller dragon probably thought it was already fighting for it's life, so it started fighting like any animal backed into a corner. That was all it took for Vhaegar to decide to fully assert her dominance. And that look on Aemond's face after. He didn't think that what he did might start a war. He KNEW that he most definitely DID just start a war, and was instantly regretting it. And if the look on Aemond's face wasn't enough to drive that point home, the look on Rhaenyra's face was definitely the visage of somebody that embodied "I am become death". At least that is how I saw it. I'm really looking forward to season two !

I have to say: I had extremely low expectations for this series, considering the steeper and steeper downward spiral that had been GoT after season 5 (and how badly some elements of the series in general have aged). The pilot didn't really convince me otherwise, but with every chapter, this has gotten better and better. This emotional finale was so well done, in script, direction and action. Despite me knowing of how the action broadly goes (book reader here), I can't wait for the next season.
