Jace is right. His legitimacy is not in question because he has a dragon, and now there are two more Targaryen bastards with bigger dragons. You could even argue the Hugh and Ulf have more of a claim then Jace, with Hugh being the son of Saera and Ulf possibly Baelon that makes them the grandsons of King Jaehaerys, and because all three are bastards then it would eb open for any of them to claim the throne after Rhaenyras death and Hugh and Ulf would now have a claim over Jace.

[@Hybrid980]

Jace is right, and at the same time the Blacks at this point in the war had little choice on how to proceed, I would have preferred Rhaenyra to do more of a filtering out process, get a sense of a potential rider's personality and history before granting them a dragon, Addam of Hull was the perfect candidate, but not everyone is going to be an Addam of Hull.

[@tb4076]

Yeah, at first i thought jace was just being an ass, but i saw his point, it does make him look really weak. At the same time, his claim also doesn't mean shit if they can't win this war first. It's a fucked position all around.

[@Adamantium93]

What I think Lupa understood and the rest of you missed about Jace: while he is Rhaenyra's named heir, so was Rhaenyra to Viserys. Once his mother is dead, he will need to shore up his support and remove any challenges to his legitimacy. The rumors of his true father weaken his claim to the throne, but there is a perception among the people of Westeros that being a dragonrider makes one closer to a god than a mortal. In short, him having a dragon allows him to dismiss the challenges to his claim; regardless of his hair color, he is clearly a noble dragonlord. But if Rhaenyra shows the world that even the low born--the blacksmiths, shipwrights, and idle drunkards--can claim a dragon, it demystifies the dragons...and makes Jace's ability to ride one less special. It removes his second greatest defense to his claim. Hugh, for example, could argue that his claim is stronger than Jace's, since his mother would have been ahead of Viserys in the line of succession. If Jace has no symbols of legitimacy, it is easier for his claim to be challenged.

[@EricDragonFire]

But the problem with that is how little it matters right now. If they don't win the war then he won't be heir to shit. He'll be heir to fuck all if they don't win so that is not important rn bc that's not a problem rn, the war is

But if they didn't have more dragon riders he is going to die 100% so it's either a 100% lose situation ( if they have no dragon riders) or a maybe losing situation ( the risk of challengers)

I think the dragons get a feel for riders based on their personalities (at least that seems to make sense with a lot of past riders). It very much seems like they all have a preference and choose based on who is compatible with them to bond with. Vermithor was the mount of King Jaeherys and seems to be drawn to fearlessness and strength which is why I think Hugh became his rider. Both him and Jaeherys are unyielding and strong men who are also fatherly. Silverwing is a docile and friendly dragon that's never fought in war - she's motherly and tends to eggs and not aggressive by nature. She pushes Ulf out of the way to make sure her eggs are okay, but I think because of his bumbling about she kinda just saw him as a goofy ass human and harmless so claimed him like a mother would. Basically Vermithor wanted a challenger and Silverwing was like "wow bro, you can't survive by yourself i'm adopting you"

What would you say the personalities of Vhagar and Sunfyre are and why they would chose Aemond and Aegon?

[@ValkyrieCain123]

@@MrFredstt Vhagar was the dragon of Visenya Targaryen who was stern and warrior like. Vhagar herself is destructive and aggressive and has been in hundreds of battles. Aemond is brave, willing to fight and ruthless. Visenya is the same and so is Vhagar. I think Vhagar likes brave and "bold" riders, and Laena fits that too. I also think Vhagar saw those traits when Aemond was a child and approached her. Sunfyre is an odd one since he basically grew up with Aegon as a hatchling. We know in the books that they have the strongest bond between rider and dragon. However, I don't think much is known about Sunfyre's personality. Based on what we have known of him though he seems quite relaxed and friendly, which fits Aegon pre-being disfigured. I don't see Sunfyre as a war dragon and more as "I'm happy just flying with my rider" dragon and that fits Aegon as someone who didn't want to rule and would rather goof off. Also, it's hard to say without spoilers but I think they mirror each other well throughout the book as characters that get put through the ringer and yet persevere. I guess if I had to describe it myself, i'd say they are both resilient?

Jace was spitting though, like think about it, everything that makes the Targaryen family special stims from their ability to tame and ride dragons. In Jace's case him being a bastard but still being able to claim a dragon for his own takes a bit of heat off his back at the same time people will still whisper behind his back, however, now that Rhaenyra called for the dragonseeds to be dragon riders it opens up new conversation and puts a new target on Jace's back. Being a heir to the queen is one thing but him being dragon rider was special to him and was one of the few things he had to prove who he was and his worth, now seeing your home being flooded with people with silver hair and with looks that people believe YOU should have inherited, it damages his own self-worth and identity. I do understand why Rhaenyra made the decision she did and it's importance but the fact she can't see where others are coming from is selfish.

16:01 Jace is actually in the right. Rhaenyra just gave two of the biggest and strongest dragons to ppl who would be ahead of Jace for inheriting the throne, and they look more Targaryen than he does, and they have the dragons of jahaerys and The good queen Alysanne. They could theoretically kill Jace and make their own claim for the throne if they wanted too.

Silverwing is actually known to be one of the more docile/friendly dragons. I think she was just happy someone showed up for once, or she thought one of her babies hatched. I like to think all this time she’s been trying to hatch a human and shes like “Oh shit, it worked!” Then immediately got the zoomies. Oh and you can see Vermithor look at hugh before he attacks kinda like he’s saying. “I choose you, but hold up one minute, I’m hungry.”

[@shockmesane4158]

The story of Hugh's mother... I think Saera? She was the youngest of Viserys' grandfather Jaehaerys' children. Anyways, her story is a very bizarre one for a Targaryen princess to end up in a brothel on another continent.

Jace is right, his mother put his life at risk the moment she gave birth to him. And now, she doesnt see how her own work is putting her son's inheritance in danger. Rhaenyra is the named heir, yet she is not on the throne. What does it matter that Jace is named heir if he cannot defend his claim in fronts of bastards who will claim he has no more rights to the throne than them (bc all of them are bastards) and bigger dragons?

[@hannahbrown187]

Jeyne Arryn didn’t kick Rhaena and the littles out, the plan was always for Joffrey (the youngest Harwin son) to stay and foster at the Eyrie and then for Rhaena to take the Daemon babies on to Pentos. Rhaena was just supposed to have another dragon/rider come with to stay there

[@ddandymann]

All the dragons have their own personality. Vermithor is famed for his ferocity so chose Hugh because of his balls of steel. Silverwing is regarded as the friendliest, as far as a dragon can be friendly, out of all the dragons, so chose Ulf who's very personable.

Rhaenyra manipulating starving peasants to throw their bodies at a dragon while also blocking their escape in hopes one will bond is the evil side of Rhaenyra we need to see more of.

[@KeangoDLuke]

Yes. And I've wanted so much more of this from the beginning of this season. Nobles judge who's better suited to lead the smallfolk but the smallfolk always lose in their battles. She is still a Targaryen who just like Dany, wants to impose what she believes is right because she is of the conqueror's blood. Enough pussyfooting man, this is how shit gets done

[@neonoires]

Jace is right, especially if you remember the Otto Hightower school of PR. Aegon being crowned king wearing Aegon the Conqueror's crown, holding his blade, and wearing his armor sends a message. I like that this whole civil war will show the cracks in the Targaryen exeptionalism they have deluded themselves to believe for generations. However at the end of the day, the people need to believe they're special or else it comes crumbling down. Also the dragon keepers care more about the dragons than whatever is going on with the war, they're like the fire seiges on ATLA lol. They serve the dragons, those are their gods and it's like Rhaenyra is defiling their gods.

[@ev2155]

Jace has an actual good point. Yes in order to get to the throne you must win the war and this is going to help with that. However you have to rule after and if someone thinks they have a claim and have the legitimacy of a dragon and probably will press their claim

[@sandracoates5445]

I think Corlys didn't say a thing so that they would leave Alyn alone and for his own reputation, his wife just died. He did go and ask him, so that he at least could have free will and wouldn't feel obligated to do it for Rhaenyra. Alyn doesn't want none of that wild bs, he just secured his spot as Corlys' heir.

[@ck_idgaf1680]

NOPE, Jace ain't bugging, he spitting facts. No one had a claim to him as the heir, because he was a dragon rider and high born. But if some one with silver hair of a higher line was to come.They could challenge him. She is allowing other bastards to become gods and elevating their position. Jace looking at the future. Also pay attention to when Jace asked, if it was Mysaria's idea, cause Mysaria knows the rules and the game. I fear a plan in play.
