[@ajayy4705]

The Bronze Fury was the old king Jaehaerys' dragon . Hugh's mother , Saera Targaryen is Jaehaerys' daughter . So he basically claimed his grandfather's dragon .

[@CarlieAndAnge]

Ohhh shitttt thats a cool detail!

[@smiteo]

Wont say much to avoid spoilers but Saera was disowned by Jaeherys because she had nonconservative endeavours as a woman and their falling out haunted him till the end that he had hallucinations of her in his deathbed. So i think it's so poetic that it was Saera's son that claimed Vermithor.

[@poxderschlingel9512]

He was definitely sent to draw Aemond in so he could see that they had more dragons and riders. A threat basically. He didn’t do it just for fun or by accident, they just skipped all the talking that happened after they were claimed. Rhaenyra said earlier in the episode that just by seeing the amount of dragons they had would make the greens give up and bring peace. She’s definitely wrong, but that’s her hope.

Silverwing is the most docile and friendly dragon even to strangers. The lover/mate of vermithor. 😍 Just like Queen Alysanne and King Jahaerys I are the old riders, and they were married as well. I believe thats daemons and viserys grand parents. The old king in episode 1 season 1

[@maurissafields1095]

Oscar was the mvp of the episode. I love that the dragons pick their riders. I believe Rhaenyra told Ulf to go to Kingslanding to draw Aemond out so they could ambush him. That last shot of Rhaenyra and the 3 dragons waiting on Aemond gave me life. Loved your reaction

And Rhaenyra ONCE AGAIN does nothing about it. Shocker.

[@kingslayer3365]

Do what exactly? They JUST got the dragons, the only target in front her is Kingslanding, The Red Keep. Is she supposed to start burning her own stuff? Maybe they should attack Vaghar without a plan using mostly inexperienced riders then lose one or all of thier lives.

[@poxderschlingel9512]

I think they show again chose style over substance. It would take many hours from King's Landing to Dragonstone. That Aemond chase him is so dumb because it would exhaust Vhagar. Everything just to make Rhaenyra look badass.

[@vitaaeris]

@@kingslayer3365whether or not they are experienced matters little. Aemond himself was way less experienced than Rhaenys, but he got the “win” because of Vaghar. As long as they command them to attack and strap themselves on the saddle, the dragons will handle it themselves.

[@hopemikaelson9223]

13:38 Say it louder for the people in the back! I'm parcial to the Blacks, but this was undoubtedly cold-blooded from RhaeRhae. And she started with The Bronze Fury instead of Silverwing who clearly is a sweetheart, which I think was deliberate.

Well, they were told to be ready to die if they want to claim a dragon and nobody was forcing these people to, so i can't really see whats the argument here

I love the Vermithor scene. He was like I'm too old for this sh!t. Gets woken up from his nap and Rhaenyra's introducing him to the hœs.... um.... I mean the dragon seeds. Vermithor was justifiably in a bad mood but Rhaenyra reminded him to calm down because he was scaring the hœs.... I mean the dragon seeds and Quasimodo pulls up and tried to claim the old king's dragon first. Vermithor, being that he is very Grandpa and politically incorrect on most days, got offended that a hunchback actually tried it and the whole thing became the prom scene in Steven King's Carrie. Huge had to bring it back to Westeros because unlike the show runners he remembered we aren't adapting a Steven King book and got in Vermithor's face and yelled " GRANDPA CALM DOWN YOU ARE SCARING THE HŒS!!!!! " Or something like that ..... he meant the dragon seeds obviously. I really wish someone could remind Daemon we aren't in Steven King's The Shining either but that was absolutely marvellous in my humble opinion.

it's very interesting that you interpreted the Alicent scene as baptism, it's an interesting angle. for me, however, it was obviously an Ophelia reference - she was gonna drown herself but she changed her mind when she saw that bird. what did it represent? freedom? did it remind her of a dragon? of Rhaenyra? we don't know. if I could write Alicent's arc, she would be with her son Aegon who 1. almost died, 2. is the only one actually listening to her and coming to her for advice. wouldn't it be interesting if she tried to put Aegon on the throne, this time because of her own ambition, because it's the only way she can have agency.

Also The Greens are planning against the blacks in the previous episode Aemond plan is very strategic, he is confronting daemon on harrenhall and forcing to him to fight on two different attacks one from Lannister army and one from Cole army with aemond behind him. He is also making a case to destroy the blockade by getting the triarchy to attack. If the triarchy succeed n betray aemond his other fleet of the lannisters will have time enough to destroy the triarchy, if the triarchy fails however they weaken the blockade of rhaenyra.

[@bryancomer1984]

in the post ep discussion carlie mentioned that she wants a good plan from team green, they had good plans and it all worked the way they wanted, but criston got to see first hand just how devastating these creatures are, and that was in the middle of nowhere with just 2 large dragons, and it was a level of massacre for both sides. I think his planning days are over for a time, i think hes going through PTSD now, as any human does after such an event. I hate to say but i think he is somewhat broken and alone, he has absolutely no one who confides in him or for him to confide in other than Gwayne(spelling idk) who doesnt really like him(like the rest of us). So at this point i think a few things will happen, Otto may return but i dont think he will until next season or the very end of this, i think aemond is going to lean on helaena for council, since larys is now on the back foot and is unlikely to give him good help, because that is now not an increase of strength for larys himself. I also think that something fucky has happened with daemon in this episode, something about the entire scene with tully was extremely off. There was no caraxes OR alys suddenly, while they all chatted out back by the weirwood tree, and then when told to execute the blackwood, we had a cut to face after a thud or something very NOT like a sword slash. Daemon wields a valyrian steel blade and they are sharp to the point of effortlessly cutting through a SKULL (lord of the tides episode) with a clean squelch and almost no effort. I think either the ENTIRE scene was played into his head by alys to further fuck with him, or she made him view certain people in that moment as someone else. There was a lot of strange looks from simon throughout that scene also. I am concerned that he has just done something that he did not even see, this has already been setup for many episodes before so people are caught off guard because alys is not present in just about the first scene where daemon is actually doing things again. I think she's put some kind of illusion in his mind to see things different than they are, or she is pouring false information into his brain in order to steer him towards her goals (think of eren in the paths to his father and younger self) sorry wall of text

[@RullXov]

Vermithor really looks scary, even his name sounds scary. Whatever happens in the finale, I highly doubt there will be any happy winners at the end of this season.

[@AcExMBar]

The dragons have different personalities besides taking on traits of the riders they bond with. Silverwing was known as a friendlier dragon, matched up well with ulf. Although if they tried silverwing with darklyn then he might’ve been ok

[@Otsutsuki_King0]

That scene with Corlys and his son actually has more meaning than we thought. They even explained on the inside episode that he is acknowledging him there and amazed he climbed the ranks by himself like Corlys did. Corlys showing acknowledgement means a lot to the boy akd is Lorys saying I see what you doing young blood.

[@ahsink.3080]

[@ProperlyGaming]

Hugh had it more tough when trying to bond with Vermithor compared to ulf with Silverwing because vermithor is a big ole grumpy bastard that has earned the nickname "The Bronze Fury". Whilst silverwing was known for being a much more peaceful dragon that seemed to enjoy the company of its dragon riders and thw dragon handlers of the pit. And any who ever tried to bond and ride her who she did not want she usually would just roar at them and scare them off instead of killing and eating them like all the other dragons.

18:56 Carlie's right about this one :)

[@belleville1805]

If I ever get to pick a dragon, silverwing will be the one (or grey ghost)

[@Meanwhile-]

I hear you on the 'surprise' factor, but really if we got to this point and the chosen riders were a couple of randoms we have absolutely no connection to that would have felt way worse.

[@CarlieAndAnge]

Thats true. I more meant along the lines of us knowing maybe 3-4 contenders. At least then theres a lot more surprise/shock factor. It was still awesome tho

[@alexisthompson7345]

No uproar if they asked for volunteers as Rhaenyra did. A dragon rider comes with prestige and it would raise their station. They knew the risk. If team green did this, I would not say a word. And I’m firmly aligned with team black!

Vermithor playing with his new toys 💀💀

[@carlosrojas7467]

Let’s not love Hugh just yet. 🙊

[@susanleach9106]

Don’t spoil it.

[@jordanrivers5825]

“rhaenyra loves the idea of being ordained to rule from the gods, being the prince that was promised because of the vindication it affords her. who are people to argue about the legitimacy of a woman ruling if the gods themselves decreed it. she has no interest in serving the throne, the people. her motivation in sitting the throne lies in her own entitlement, in affirming viserys loved in, in her divinity, her masculinity. she chafes at duty her whole life be she thinks her fate set her path, she is jesus.” -taken from twitter. also “jace would rather lose the war and die than give up any more symbols of his legitimacy. desperately begging his mother to PLEASE let him keep this privilege, his pride, his last marker of targaryen-isim, be he is so deeply ashamed of what he KNOWS he is, what SHE made him. that entire conversation saved jace for me i am so pathetically endeared to this boy who's head is split apart in two by what he is and what he thinks he should be and how he thinks he's the exception not the rule just like his mother.” & one more “one of them lost a daughter to the blockade shel placed on the narrow sea trade route, both of them essentially got locked into a boiler room (with a hungry beast) by her men, and now they both share the same social standing as her be she's stupid- they owe her nothing!” Rhaenyra has sewed the seeds for the ruin of her house, by taking away that layer of sacred protection that the targaryen name offered her, no matter who wins at this point it doesn’t matter. The only reason the Targaryens have the right to rule is because of the dragons and now lowborn bastards are riding them with no loyalty towards her and Jace is rightfully concerned about what happens one day when she dies and a targaryen looking bastard with a stronger, larger dragon is there. Why be a lord when you can be a king. Did being the heir protect rhaenyra from being opposed by her brothers? that’s not good enough for jace but Rhaenyra is so naïve even still that she thinks thats some kind of insurance to Jace.

[@jocadamotoca916]

Those two who claimed Vermithor and silver wing are bastards descendents of king Jaehaerys and queen Alyssane, those dragons can smell they're blood, that's why they are able to claim them, wasn't a random thing

[@minhhai011290]

which is the red dragon behind Rhaenyra at the last scene?

[@andri_sto12]

15:44 who is going to tell her??????????????????

[@valicalota9632]

I choose Canibal, the biggest dragon ever that he's feeding himself with dragons, very soon we will see him in the show.

[@Panster7]

Ulf won a lotto, buy a Lamborghini and went to show it to his mates

[@arkogonsohi9756]

I feel like team green would force people there, especially with Aemond in charge. Rhaenyra told them the risks and they still went in there willingly. Team black all the way baby

[@jjosifovic]

Rhaenyra in order to get the throne must make the most devastating sacrifice to the system itself. If all dragons can be claimed by anybody than the illusion of the Targaryen power and dynasty goes away n that itself destroys the monarchy to which rhaenyra and jace have their only power from. The class system of the entire society of westeros will be gone thanks to rt actions that could future destroy the realm more than the civil war that is happening now. I get why Rhaenyra is doing what she is doing but the long game is in play n like usual Rt is not thinking about how this shakes the entirety of house targaryen. A great episode n great reaction guys. Team Green.

[@Tx20-25]

Capítulo final??

[@MathouManson]

Vermithor want someone with courage and strength while ulf was lacking purpose and silverwing was lonely

[@nikitasingh0412]

Greens will be finished by next episode... vermithor going to eat every single one of them

[@matheusbenck4353]

hughie is EPIC!!!!

[@jacksonperez5615]

Yes Rhaenyra is evil and self serving

[@Boggsy.]

I’m not Team’d up (that marketing was smart in causing drama) but def think Rhaenyra has the more righteous claim. Still- I don’t think anybody should be making excuses for the way Rhaenyra locked the door behind the desperate “bastards”… That’s messed up. Even if they signed a waiver. Waiver-mithor.
