There was no hope once Lucerys was murdered.

Blood and cheese was a consequence of Luce's murder. Period. Had Aemond not killed Luce, Rhaenyra probably would have taken Alicents deal.

[@thundersparky2559]

the episode started with Stark theme...... couldnt be better than that❤

Even more poignant when the specific house Stark track they played is titled “goodbye brother”, as the raven flies north conveying the news of Luke’s death.

I missed Winterfell and loved hearing the Northern theme🖤🖤

[@alokupadhyay1470]

I couldn't believe it.... The ending clearly took me off guard. Poor girl 😢

[@MI-vc9lp]

Daemon ordered Blood and Cheese. When the ratcatcher asked him what to do if they couldn't find Aemond, it is heavily implied that he sanctioned them. He probably told them that any male Targtower would do. And you've already got people denying this, which does a disservice to Daemon's character.

[@mahaboumezrag2201]

people are denying it because of the discussion b and c had before the murder and also because the actor confirmed that daemon was very clear about who he wanted and that those two acted in their own

[@badyoutuber1986]

​@@mahaboumezrag2201it's implied if they could not find Demon another son will do also Aegon is a Targaryen plane and simple unless you are referring to the family as an alliance

[@SonderDAzeX]

I honestly just think he said "A son for a Son", otherwise wouldnt Blood have gotten the memo?

[@peacegiveitachance9273]

Rhaenyra would have never ever in her entire life ordered the death of toddler. She wanted aemond the guilty party. Daemon has made her look evil. That's why you don't marry your uncle. Heleana was in shock. She saw this happening. She's been trying to warn everyone since the beginning. Those that worship the old gods would have listened.

[@MsSourabh108]

Daemon is truly twisted. They have that on both sides

[@Ozymandias86]

Didn’t Dameon tell them to kill aemond, event mentioned he’d heard he was quite good in combat? And those two fools f’d it up

Daemon quite literally tells them to kill Aemond. He didn't order the death of a child. Are you even watching the episode?

Solid start, although I didn’t appreciate the whole Alicent/Criston thing. I mean, I like them but they worked better in a platonic way, imo. It’s not even the hypocrisy, that I can understand, human beings tend to be like that it’s just… it feels rushed.

Returning home to Winterfell was incredibly gratifying. The opening scene was filled with emotion, and it was heartwarming to see Lord Cregan holding the Stark family sword, Ice. We are so back!
