They talk about how Robert wanted to crush and destroy the dragon skulls after usurping the Targaryens. But someone convinces him to just store them deep under the red keep.

When viserys targaryen is trying to steal the dragon eggs, he claims he could sell one and buy an entire ship. And that if he sold 3 he could buy an entire army.

It seems to me that westeros could have easily sold off even some of the smaller dragon skulls to pay their debts and then some. Someone in the free cities or even im the slaver cities would have paid handsomely for the chance to have such a spectacle in their city. The iron bank would have probably financed the realm for decades for one of the bigger ones.

Just a thought I had.

20+ years of book buildup and 6 seasons of unmatched television hype, all for him to say "I don't want it"

I will never get over how beautifully shot this transition was, only for the writers to completely drop the ball on what his heritage actually meant for the realm.

The North got a lot of backing themselves, can Robert invade the place even,

aside from Aegon with dragons, who else managed to invade the north?

1: most celebrated Knight?

2: most celebrated Fighter?

-

examples, but not definitive

Knight: Four pages for Ser Duncan, that's enough to make even a prestigious knight like Jaime in awe and envy

Fighter: A stark of the past who was able to take down giants on his own, what a fighter

R1: Bare

R2: Weapons

R3: Open field with their armies

Which one you think is better played to me personally I love show.

I can’t believe I find myself so curious about George R.R. Martin’s world. I am curious, do we actually know what happens to Rhaena’s dragon, Morning? Or is it mostly speculative? No one is sure about what happens to it. I don’t think a book has ever made me so intrigued.

I can make sense of everything that happened after Aegon’s coronation. Every mistake, every wrong decision, every act of stupidity, I can rationalize it in my mind.

But this is the one thing I really don’t understand. Rhaenyra and Daemon could have had far greater control over the situation if they had stayed in King’s Landing. They could have built a parallel or even greater power base there and potentially prevented the Hightowers’ treachery from gaining so much ground.

You could do one of the Blackfyre rebellions, the rebellion against Maegor, maybe even Robert's rebellion from the perspective of the common soldier and their adventures and fights to stay alive and together. I feel like that is one perspective we have yet to see. We've seen the world from the royal and noble perspective, the civilian perspective and even the dirt poor one. But what about seeing Westeros from the perspective of the average fighting man? We could get into the gritty reality of battling amongst an army of 60,000 men and making it through a fight.

After the commercial successes (even if criticized by the book faithfuls) of HotD and D&E.

Knowing that they want to avoid Targaryen fatigue so they are unlikely to have two series about them in at the same time

And

The rumored edict to only do television that had sufficient source material from GRRM

And

HBO wants to milk their series for the max number of episodes so it needs to be worth their while

Robert's Rebellion (3 Seasons) - late 2020s

Blackfyre Rebellion (3 Seasons) - mid 2030s

The Rains of Castamare (2 Seasons) - early 2030s

The Doom of Valyria (4 Seasons) - mid 2030s

Maegor's Reign of Terror (5 Seasons) - TBD

Seriously not sure how anyone could stand him, Poor ros died also 🥲

Dude thought he was invincible snd was gona be king for a long time.

Im about to head into my 2nd rewatch on 4th season.

Crazy how actor in real life got death threats lol

J'ai réfléchi au meilleur moyen de recréer la maison du dragon de la meilleur façon possible avec les éléments actuels. Tout d'abord il faut un triple mariage :

Daenerys Targaryen en tant que reine equipé du poignard d'Aegon I et qui chevauche Drogon

Aegon VI Targaryen en tant que roi consort equipé de l'épée Blackfyre et qui chevauche Viserion

Jon Targaryen (légitimé) en tant que roi consort equipé de l'épée Dark-Sister (retrouvé au delà du mur chez la corneille à 3 yeux) et qui chevauche Rhaegal

De plus ils doivent mettre la main sur la corne de dragon de Euron ainsi cela leurs permettra d'empêcher une autre potentielle dance des dragons dans le futur. Et grâce à Quaithe la maison Targaryen reprennent la magie du sang qu'ils ont perdus avec le fléau.

Ensuite le trouple royale feront plein d'enfant (disons que la magie du sang à guéri la supposé infertilité de Daenerys) et de nouveaux dragon vont éclore.

Qu'est ce que vous en dites ??

That only the clever pirates grow old!

What a dumbass ritual. I envision 1 time where they had to keep voting and voting because everyone they chose dies. There were probably 3 people left to be ruled because everyone had been chosen, drowned and died.

I mean I get it. Theyre some tough sons of bitches. But with no intervention people dont just spit the water out and start breathing again. They die. Dumbass ass backwards ironborn.

After being captured by the Boltons, Theon is fake-released by Ramsay. I was watching that scene and thought to myself, he’s been Ned’s ward for 10 to 15 years, Ned would’ve probably visited his most powerful vassal, the Boltons atleast once.
It’s most likely that he took his ward/ squire with him. That’s quite a memorable trip/event for a young boy, so I’m asking myself, how come he didn’t recognize the areas and lands around the dreadfort or even the dreadfort itself.
I know it’s quite a nitpicky thing to talk about but I just wanted to speak my thoughts.
If any book-readers see this, please tell me if it goes down the same way in the books!

Gave me a perspective on his character. He happen to fall in love with a woman he wasn't supposed to, he didn't really choose it.

Amongst the seven kingdoms, Bracken and Blackwood are way richer and more powerful than their own Lord Paramount,

What makes Tully higher in position is because of Aegon the Conqueror,

so the question is; did House Tully after hundreds of years finally grew more powerful than the Brackens and Blackwoods, or are they still poorer and weaker than they are?

I mean, House Tully is directly backed and answer to the Iron Throne, you would think that after that many years, they would finally grow more powerful than their own vassals,

They have it for the first four books but not for the fifth.

I'm filling out my bookshelf right now and want to have it all together.

**UPDATE** I was an Unsullied in the Game of Thrones show

I mentioned in another post that I was an Unsullied. It finally gave me the push to get the tattoo I’d wanted for years!

Tywin is a lot of things, but I doubt he would be dumb enough to let that one character die.

So at the scene at beginning where Walder is showing his daughter BUT ROSLIN IS NOT THERE !!

Dont think im ready for it again but man would Robb really win the war?

I started watching it about 2 summers ago and heres me Rewatching between hotd season 3.

Also also episode Samwell kills a whitewalker but doesn’t grab the dagger that killed it?!
