The Defiance Of Duskendale | House Of The Dragon History & Lore | King Aerys ii Targaryen Mad King

[@WorldOfWesteros]

There will be a poll going live this weeked about sundays video, it's a choice between a video about what to expect from season 3 of house of the dragon, and a 20 minute deep dive of Nettles being cut from House Of The Dragon, and how Rhaena taking her role doesn't completely work and how i think her role will be split between Rhaena and another mystery characters.

[@jeffcordova9633]

I’m Interested to see your opinion on this cause I’m Not a fan at all of Rhaena taking the role of Nettles cause it just makes no sense.. like out of nowhere she’s just gonna claim Sheepstealer at the end of the season cause she’s Daemons daughter ? With no build up ? Instead of following the book ? It just makes no sense but I guess the budget cuts could have had a factor in this matter .. Either way I look forward to the video

Duskendale had been his finest hour, yet the memory tasted bitter on his tongue.

[@brianaguila6925]

Dude never took a page from the Conciliator's and the Good's book.

[@tuckernutter]

The fact that HOTD reveals that the Darklyn's are distant cousins (ancestor Aerianna Targaryn marrying into the family before the conquest) potentially makes Aerys II putting them all to death a case of mass kinslaying!

“The coin of Aerys Second of his name, hand landed on madness but half of the Targaryens landed so, but only Aerys would be remembered as THE MAD KING, thanks in no small part to the DEFIANCE OF DUSKENDALE” -Varys about the Defiance of Duskendale. For the watch & the lord commander!! BROTHER BITTERSTEEL!!! This is one event WE MUST SEE ON TV !! A Young Aerys II Not completely mad but almost there … A young but Ruthless & Blunt Lion Hand of The king Tywin Lannister.. Also but I’d love to see how a young Barristan Selmy scaled the city walls & freed his king.. Would really love to see it!! But also as horrible as it is I wanna see how brutal Aerys is when he Executes all of the family line … And burns his foreign wife alive .. Thank you for the content mi’lord !!!

[@hubertdenise3100]

Lord Darklyn was an idiot for thinking he could arrest the king of westeros.Especially when Rhaegar was already old enough to take charge and punish you if Aerys should die, and Aerys had gone their to hear your case and negotiate himself.His wife, if she was the person who convinced Lord Darklyn, was a twit for thinking everyone would accept the king being arrested by a whiny little lord who felt he deserved a charter, and they would get their way without punishment. Lord Darklyn singlehandedly destroyed his house by his own arrogance.

There wasn't any other way it could have ended for Lord Darklyn than badly. So sad that House Darklyn ended this way after such a long and proud history, especially their seven contributors to the Kingsguard.

[@hailzproductionz]

[@nicholasgregory9234]

Facts. Lord Darklyn made some DUMB decisions that doomed them

[@tatalsaba]

I've got so many questions about Denys Darklyn and his plan. Were there any way for Lord Darklyn to persuade Aerys to see his side of things and get some minor rights as an experiment, or as a boon for the great service House Darklyn had done for the Targaryens? Providing 7 knights for the Kingsguard is a tough act to follow and makes it very hard for other towns and cities to make a similar demand. Could there have been a way for the Darklyn's to prosper again outside of treating with Tywin the hard hearted and Aerys the mad? Additionally, what sort of rights would Lord Darklyn want for his smallfolk? If they still think of him fondly, he must truly have had their best interests at heart.

Ser Barristan Selmy most certainly was a badass no doubt about it.

Where is that picture of Tywin with hair from?

Seems like an artist took a young picture of Charles Dance as inspiration. You can see stills from old plays, shows and movies he was in. Man was fiiiine. He gives off bougie, upper crust Robert Redford vibes.

@@kb4903 if you look at in the terms of reverse psychology to get Aerys Killed yeah… Knowing that if he told Aerys NOT to go, and knowing that by telling him That, THAT Aerys would do the opposite… I think that played a part yes.. Especially with Pycelle being the grand Maester at the time

Reverse psychology does not seem to be Tyvinns style. He is however an opportunist and does not seem particulary bothered by his old friend dying.
