"The blood of the dragon" means more than being a targaryen,. it is literal, The Valerian dragon riders got their ability from dark magic, Blood magic and since forgotten dark rituals that mixed their blood with dragons... it is why every few generations a still born is said to gave had scales, or a tail, or even wings.

Right! He never says "That's your niece, gross!" He says "She's just a girl!" As in the King still sees his daughter as young and innocent maybe. Which is a little hypocritical b/c he married someone his daughter's age... a couple years ago. So he married a younger girl too. But yeah, I didn't think the incest bothered him. It was more the fact that Daemon is married and Rhaenyra is young, so it messed up her reputation.... that's what I got from it 🤔

I can't say what is worse, being blind to what is going on around you, or seeing and knowing, and choosing to do nothing about it.

Even then the Targaryens are known for incest. Even daemon parents and his grandparents was siblings. He never liked his wife because it was a arranged marriage when he was 16 and he would prefer a Targaryen or just the race. King viserys wife was also half Targaryen and his cousin. Rhaenyra and daemon both showed to like each other previously and even this episode starts with her playing with daemon necklace when she’s looking for suitors. Daemon stopped because he felt guilt with trynna use rhaenyra to mess with his brother that’s why he stopped from having sex with her but he also did it so viserys would marry him and rhaenyra but it didn’t work.

[@ladyhotep5189]

The king has leprosy. Paddy constandine said it in an interview.

[@astalothbrok4902]

So I don't see that anyone has explained this- but "blood of the dragon" actually refers back to the blood magic done in Valyria that gave the Targaryens the ability to claim and bond with the dragons; essentially, they *are* part dragon. They actually go through a period of time while they're growing in the womb where they resemble dragons- hence why all premature Targaryen babies look that way regardless of how closely related their parents are. In addition, it also literally attracts them to each other- thinking of it like cats go with cats, dragons go with dragons, humans go with humans and Targaryens want to go with Targaryens is the best way I can suggest to make that make sense lol. Is that also what makes them a little uh, "off"? Yeah, they're uncontrollable just like the dragons too! Editing to add a TL;DR- "blood of the dragon" basically means Targaryens are borderline just dragons in human form (over-simplified but gets the point across lol)

[@rhaenyraitargaryen6360]

I think yall shouldn't have forgotten that Targaryens wed brothers and sisters even from the lore mentioned in Game of Thrones lol. They marry into their family as close as possible. Viserys wasn't bothered by incest like when Otto tried to betroth Aegon to Rhaenyra, or Daemon trying to marry Rhaenyra. He's bothered about the fact that both Aegon and Rhaenyra are still too young or in Rhaenyra's case, still a child in his eyes.

[@blissinchains]

Targaryens keeping it in the family isn't new. It's literally what they've endeavoured to do and really, they branched out very seldom in the 200 years they ruled for. It doesn't just consolidate their power; the more they dilute their blood, the less they can connect with dragons. Leading the audience who actually pays attention to assume that Valyrian culture itself promoted this custom--and looking at the marriage of Corlys and Rhaenys, also cousins, cements this as fact. And seeing as the Targaryens are modelled after the Ptolemies of Egypt... lmao. Don't be surprised. And you're one of very very few who are either surprised or grossed out.

[@kebabgud]

The Blackwoods and the Brackens are ancient enemies but they both fought for Robb Stark. The Blackwoods are GRRM's favorite house and they often are seen on the "Right side of history". The Blackwoods were the last house in the Riverlands to surrender after Robb died.

[@blackeyedlily]

I agree with you that Daemon’s deepest desire would be for his brother to name him his Hand. I think that moment in the first episode, where he is eavesdropping on the Small Council, and Daemon smirks when Viserys says he doesn’t want the crown is because his brother really does know him best. But Daemon yearns to have his brother show that he has trust in him. of course his behavior is often the cause of making that such a hard thing to do. George R.R. Martin has said that Daemon Targaryen is his favorite Targaryen. There is a quote about him in one of the books that I really love. “He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. To some he was a hero, to others the blackest of villains.” Seems like a good description to me. And it is why he is a character so many people love to watch, whatever you think about him.

26:24 in universe meaning of blood of the dragon is that they are related to the dragons. Septan Barth(he is in fire and blood) mentioned that the Valryians(Targaryens, Velaryon, Celtigars etc) were sorta like mad scientists that made genetic chimeras and that they themselves could be one as well. Being blood of the dragon means that you can ride dragons, have a resistance to heat (not fireproof that's only Daenerys and a one time thing at that in the books at least). Being blood of the dragon means that they can never get sick, normal incest issues do not follow them. Moreover the madness itself is not linked to the incest and that there have been like 5 mad Targaryens and they had different reasons for it

[@rhaelicent]

Daemon did what he did to ruin Rhaenyra’s image. He even took off their hats to show off where they were because he just wanted power and so Rhaenyra had no other option. It’s not that Rhaenyra really even would love him, it’s that he groomed her to love him and want him (Mild spoilers?) Also, this wasn’t the first nor will be the last time time he wants to fuck someone half his age

[@ro4eva]

I think it's important to note that Daemon stopped before he was to engage in sexual intercourse with Rhae. Apparently, this was because on some level he realized it was wrong. And he remarked to Rhae in episode 7 that he walked away to spare her. And apart from some face-stroking + dialogue in episode 5, Daemon then stayed away from Rhae once her marriage to Laenor was enacted + certified in its entirety. Furthermore, regarding grooming, it seems somewhat fallacious to make use of the moral + ethical values of a 21st Century civilized society in order to pass judgement upon the sins of a primitive world featuring a culture that oozes antediluvian feudalism without end. To be clear, Daemon killed his first wife, and committed several more repugnant acts which were completely unjustified in my opinion. However, he also acted selflessly on several occasions in the 2nd half of Season 1. And while the good doesn't erase the bad, it does preclude him from becoming another Joffrey Baratheon or Rhamsey Bolton (a full-on villain). Personally I think he's an anti-hero, but that just me.

[@Thrashifice]

The prophecy did came true. Jon Snow was the one who united the kingdoms against the cold and the white walkers. Regarding Otto, he's not evil, but he's not likeable. He, as a father found a good and honest man to marry his daughter, one who happens to be the most powerful person in the kingdom. He also worries, and with reason, that the people won't accept a woman as a ruling queen. He's also right about that. Like it or not, beyond his manipulations, his motives are understandable and even justifiable. I still don't like him, but I do understand where he's coming from.

The Targaryen family tree is complicated and filled with incest. Viserys and Daemon's parents were siblings. As were Jaehaerys and Alysanne, their grandparents. Aemma Arryn was a cousin of Viserys and Daemon. Just like Rhaenys (who married the Sea Snake,) Laenor and Rhaenyra are 2nd cousins (they share 2 common great grandparents) A niece marrying an uncle is unusual, but not unheard of. Daemon was suggesting taking Rhaenyra as a 2nd wife. Whilst the incest is very frowned upon, bigamy is a major no-no. Maegor the Cruel married multiple women and most of the realm turned on him and made Jaehaerys King. Before the Targaryens ruled Westeros it was fairly common for them. Aegon the Conqueror was married to both his sisters.

He knew what he was doing throughout the events of this episode, everything with him taking out Rhaenyra out, making her watch the theatrical performance, knowing how the crowd reaction would be and enjoying watching her reaction to it, to taking her to the brothel and putting on a performance where he knew there were witnesses, where he knew there were “little birds” who would report what they saw and it would get back to the King. He knew if word got round that she was no longer pure, that would make her damaged goods to any suitors, in the mind of Viserys anyway and therefore making his offer to marry Rhaenyra a more attractive offer to Viserys, it’s all cleverly constructed movement of the pieces so that he can make his checkmate move, which in his eyes is to be crown the King, that is ultimately all Daemon cares about, everything and everyone else is just him positioning himself, that’s how I read it anyway, I guess we will see as the story develops and his character and motivations are played out

....except GRRM, Matt Smith and the showrunners ALL confirmed he does not, in fact, wish to be king. Or else he'd not have crowned Rhaenyra and bent the knee to her.

daemon wants to marry rhaenyra because he loves his brother and values targaryen tradition. he should have been hand but Visarys never respected him . this is why daemon acts the way he does he just wants his brothers respect not his pity or help

Really annoys me when they say Jon and didn't do anything... He brings Daenerys' army to winterfell, and he kills Daenerys who ends up being a tyrant....I get not liking the ending, but this idea that snow did nothing in the end is just inaccurate.

The Daemon likes Rhaenyra the daemon wanted to show Rhaenyra things because Rhaenyra doesn't know anything outside the kingdom the daemon's plan I believe the daemon wanted people to see them together and they say the princess went into a brothel with her uncle so much as soon as the daemon took off rhaenyra's hood and hat before entering the brothel but the daemon gives up and walks away too bad because he left her alone and rhaenyra and christian's relationship was also wrong because christian he is a knight and he soiled his white robe, remembering that Christian is older than Daemon, so age doesn't matter in this universe, just like incest doesn't matter because that's normal in the Targaryen family. I'm already used to it because I read George Martin's books and in the stories he tells about the Targaryen family, they all have incest. Incest is the most normal thing in this universe I didn't like the way Alicent talked to Rhaenyra if she wants help friend no and just like you approach a friend Alicent is jealous of her Rhaenyra because Rhaenyra slept with whoever she wanted, she doesn't have to sleep with an old man, you'll understand yet more later Alicent is jealous of Rhaenyra's life in the book shows more See the difference in the scenes when the daemon talks to Rhaenyra talking even though she is married he can feel pleasure with whoever she wants in the Alicent scene and viserys Alicent is not feeling pleasure already in the Rhaenyra scene and Daemon Rhaenyra is feeling pleasure even if it was the kiss but she is enjoying it more after she sleeps with Christian and she feels pleasure there you can see In the throne scene, when the daemon says that viserys can do what he wants, because he is the king, he rules him and the law, he is a Targaryen, this is true, as it is also true when viserys tells Alicent that the daemon and rhaenyra are dragons are restless that's true too More and different Cersei and Jaime they are not Targaryen so you can't incest because there is only incest in the Targaryen family and normal for them already Cersei and Jaime and very wrong they are not Targaryen To do this they should die because it is a sin different from the Targaryens which is not wrong but super normal

@@purplegorilla9592 You're dealing with crazed Dany stans bro. You gotta realize this is what they do.

It's so lame and clownish. But this is what they do.
