I mean he can never see his parents or adopted kids again :/

If you think about it, Rhaenyra did sacrifice, she could've gone off with Ser Criston, but she didn't..and birthed children when she didn't want to. It was Alicent who first betrayed/lied to Rhaenyra, she knew would wed the King sneaking into his room everyday..never even told her best friend "Hey I'm seducing your father so I can marry him..." LOL bunkers

@@sandyenriq1991 I'm team black, but I can understand Alicent when she says that, she fulfilled her duty to her father and house, she sacrificed her own wants and desires, while Rhanerya has basically been able to do what she wants and get away with it. Even if Rhanerya wasn't the heir she wouldn't have ran away with Ser Criston simply because she didn't love him that much, so that wasn't a sacrifice. She thought she would have to sacrifice when she married Laenor but she got lucky with their arrangement, she had children but they are quite clearly illegitimate. Alicent is frustrated but because of Otto manipulating her she believes that Rhaenyra is putting herself above the rules and will continue to do so at any cost, when in reality Rhanerya is not trying to he malicious, she's trying to be happy, essentially have her cake and eat it, but somewhere in the midst of it all, she's lost control of the situation, the problem is Alicent is too far gone and cannot see pass her father's scheming otherwise she would see that Rhaenyra is scared for her children and is desperately trying to right her wrongs to no avail, because every effort on her end to squash the beef and unite the family has been rejected.

Everyone keeps forgetting that THE REALM will not accept Rhaenyra. Not matter what / who King Viserys wants to rule after he is dead. Once his casket drops... the Iron Throne is up for grabs. NOBODY is going to honor his wishes to have Rhaenyra rule. So Allicent isn't wrong. She has stayed FAITHFUL to Viserys for all these years. And gave him 2 male sons to carry on the Targaryen legacy. Meanwhile, Rhaenyra has been a Royal Thot. Just bed-hopping... like a groupie waiting for Captain Save-A-Hoe (aka Daemond) to come and clean up her messy life. She has no sense of duty or honor. She takes zero accountability for her own actions. She is only loyal to her own whims, which change from day to day... like the wind. And her 'Big plan" is to rule by fear & fire?? She sounds like the Mad King in the making. Just worse.

@@breburke7286 Facts, I'm glad to see someone who regardless of the team they choose they're also able to see that Rhaenyra is not this flawless heroine some people think she is, Allicent is not perfect but Rhaenyra's been raised as a spoiled kid.

@@zandergamer5429 facts. I lean Team Green coz I can understand their motives more, but even I don't condone their doings.

Fantastic acting from both sides, making people have polarizing views.

What about the dragon then? I mean i like that ending EPIC. But how are they gonna explain when bruma has another dragon rider if he is not dead

Yeah they keep making us happy with her. Stupid as fuck the point is they both sides suck. In the book he dies

Exactly! 💖

Alas, the 21st century rainbow snowflakes pandering and ruining one more show smh.

@@Snow16. The dragon will tire of waiting for Laenor and assume he’s dead. It will seek a new rider. One of his nieces would be a good candidate. This can’t be the first dragon to have its owner “disappear.”

Honestly, how did they not get it? Daemon specifically told Laenor's lover that there was a place across the Narrow Sea where people didn't care about titles or anything else, only money, and said to make sure there were witnesses to Laenor being supposedly killed. They couldn't have telegraphed that any clearer aside from screaming "FAKE HIS DEATH". LOL.

Actually considering the emotions even i didn't realise in the first instance that it was staged.... I was believing more on the visuals than the audio and I was thinking about Rhaenys and her husband the whole time...they had just lost their only daughter and now their only son is also gone

@@w.a.s5819 GRRM has said before the Books are told from multiple points from view and that the show is more accurate. It was never explicitly said he dies in the books only from a certain point of view.

@@w.a.s5819 their marriage is legitmate because they worked together to fake Laenor's death, no one is gonna find out he's alive. We'll see how they handle the seasmoke thing when the time comes, and no his death is more of a mystery/unsure in the BOOK. As the book is written like a history book not in the POV of the actual characters, they don't know the actual secrets

@@juniorlks1 Exactly.

He does

Viserys is the most normal person in this family. He just wants peace and see everyone get along. He’s kind. Maybe not fit to be king, but definitely a loving father/grandfather. Even with Alicent, he gave her a lot of free pass. Even if she only see how Rhaenyra is spoiled, but she’s also, she just can’t see it.

@@rohanshende4338 What advantage is that? To stay alive? Rhaneyra minds her own business

@@rohanshende4338 Rheanyra was his only daughter for a long long time. Of course he spoiled her..... She doesn't need to take advantage of anything.

@@melissarm3750 I think Rhaenyra is semi not spoiled lol..cuz first her father killed her mother, then her father married her best friend (double betrayal), then she was forced to be the heir (everyone hated her cuz she was a girl), to perform her duties, give birth etc.. I'd say she is owed a big debt

Best response ever

I mean in the show it's painfully obvious, but in the book it would have been more subtle like Joffrey's father in GoT. Shame they went with this route.

@@gronizherz3603 havent read the books but how could it be more subtle there? does it never say their skin colours? or hair colour?🤣

@@orbboom6119 In the books the Valeryons are valyrians, so they have pale skin, silvery hair, I think blue rather than violet eyes. That's one of the reasons they are so envious of Targaryen power, because they are just as valyrian, but happen to not have dragons, so they're only ever 2nd best behind the Targs. And that's why the hair colour is a big give-away ... both parents are pale, violet/blue-eyed with silvery/light gold hair, and the boys have dark brown hair, it's basically like in GoT when Joffrey didn't have the Baratheon hair colour.

@@gronizherz3603 except the excuse with Joffrey could be made that he takes after Cersei, his mother, so people wouldn't have need to suspect otherwise until Cersei point blank admitted it to Ned. Neither of the Strongs look remotely like Rhaenyra or Laenor, so it's not "subtle" in the book either.

Wait for later - there are no good guys/girls in GoT and even less in HotD.

I mean, she always used him for her own convenience, Rhaenyra was totally capable of killing Laenor to marry Daemon, in the books it's not even said that Laenor lived. Some people try to put Rhaenyra in this pedestal only because she's the main character figure thinking that means she's the good one here, she's as bad or worse than Allicent there's no good team in this.

@@zandergamer5429 Correct. Rhaenyra couldn’t give a damn when the Blackwood boy was fighting to the death after he proposed to her. The lives of insignificants don’t matter to her.

all I'm thinking that time, he was proposing to get into battlefield and hoping to get killed in the Stepstones so that she could re-marry. because she said "the sea offers an escape". so technically Daemon saved him.

Don't forget Criston Cole - it was his idea first until Rhaenyra threw him under the bus.

I was thinking Laenor proposed to die in the battlefield so she could re-marry. and Daemon got better idea.

@@sandyenriq1991 yeah in the book they mention that meleys “the queen who never was’s” dragon could have probably killed Vahgar alone if it was a one on one match. Vahgar is large and strong but old and slow

It was more to advance how Ser Qarl was able to enter Laenor's fathers hall unchallenged. 'Who let you in here? Why are you in my father's hall?'
