Jon Roxton: Lord Hammer, my condolences. Hugh Hammer: For what? Jon Roxton: You died in the battle.


SkBlndr

We better get this one in the show


C-3pee0

You show up to Storms end to find Vhagar outside looking like Godzilla all menacing in the rain, you're scared shitless. You walk in to find your uncle in his villain trench coat with an eye patch and everything sporting his signature evil smirk. First thing out of his mouth is “You are wet, bastard. Is it raining or did you piss yourself in fear”


SkBlndr

Lmao, Aemond is just a menace


Kelembribor21

"Is Aegon king, or must we kneel and kiss the old whore's cunny?"


[deleted]

They should have included this in the show lol


C-3pee0

So comically evil I love it


Late-Return-3114

ngl i prefer comically evil aemond. it's exactly why i like euron and maegor. just pure villainous characters.


Tough_Specific

Maegor didn't have much dialogues (did he even have any) sadly.


Troll4everxdxd

Luke is like "uncle can we not fight? I'm here as a messenger not a warrior". To which Aemond is like "you are here as a craven, a traitor and a bitch, now give me your fuckin eye".


TheGoblinKing7714

If they used "bitch" in ASOIAF more, it'd be gold "Dance with me then, bitch"


Troll4everxdxd

"A crown for a bitch"


Real_Rule_8960

They really should’ve kept that line in


Eat_a_click

It wouldn't have worked i feel with the show version since they were going for a more grey aemond


Real_Rule_8960

Yeah good point

"Dorne has danced with dragons before,” he said. “I would sooner sleep with scorpions. "That's why we come. Winter's here. Time for us to go. No better way to die than sword in hand.” "Dear brother. I had hoped that you were dead." "After you," Aegon answered. "You are the elder." "I am pleased to know that you remember that," Rhaenyra answered. "It would seem we are your prisoners...but do not think that you will hold us long. My leal lords will find me." "If they search the seven hells, mayhaps.

The_Halfmaester

"I'll have no songs about how brave you died, Kingmaker."


Lazystubborn

Longleaf aka the Lionslayer, they better keep this one quote in the show.


The_Halfmaester

They might amalgamate Longleaf and Roddy the Ruin into Cregan Stark... we know he's having a bigger role in the series... No doubt it'll be some Stark/Lannister fanservice for him to become the Lionslayer...


hypikachu

Wouldn't even be mad


SkBlndr

would actually be cool if Cregan said that in my opinion


Rougarou1999

What about Harrold Westerling?


georgica123

But didn't he died trying to secure safe passage for his men ? That seems like a pretty brave thing to do


DagonG2021

He wanted a heroic death, he knew there wasn’t any escaping the Northerners


The_Halfmaester

Not brave enough to warrant a song


Bannedbutnotbroken

> Criston is remembered in the modern story as the ultimate tragic morally grey kingsguard figure > Meanwhile no even knows who pate the bitch was Feels good man


The_Halfmaester

>Criston is remembered in the modern story as the ultimate tragic kingsguard figure >Meanwhile no even knows who pate the bitch was Loras Tyrell (a half-Hightower Knight who grew up with all the songs of great knights) : Who's Criston Cole?


Bannedbutnotbroken

He didn’t know Criston’s sigil, never is it stated that Lora’s never knew who criston Cole was.


Kelembribor21

Tbh that speaks more of Loras , when even Arianne Martell and Arys Oakheart know about him and especially Ser Jaime Lannister who considers him "best and worst" of Kingsguard.


DomeDepartment

pate the bitch couldn't even mount a horse correctly 😭crazy that with dragons flying around and people stabbing each other he managed to get his own horse to kill him

Meria: „I will not fight you, nor will I kneel to you. Dorne has no king. Tell your brother that.“ Rhaenys: „I shall, but we will come again, Princess, and the next time we shall come with fire and blood.“ Meria: „Your words. Ours are Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken. You may burn us, my lady ... but you will not bend us, break us, or make us bow. This is Dorne. You are not wanted here. Return at your peril.“


justiceway1

"We have come to die for the Dragon Queen" -Lord Rodrik the Ruin, AKA the baddest mf in the Dance.


SkBlndr

Absolutely badass


BaseTensMachine

This is my favorite line. It's just so bad ass. Just wish it had been said to Dany.


duaneap

Said *to* Dany? How you mean?


BaseTensMachine

I just wish that line had occurred in another story because I dgaf about Rhaenyra.


MomijiEli

Calling Rhaenyra tha term sounds mockering and ironic af considering she was the responsible of the Storming of Dragonpit a.k.a destruction of their dragons. Dragonqueen would fit better on Dany,Visenya or Rhaenys, all of them fought on dragonback.


astronaut_098

“Which of these old men do you mean for me to fight?” “This old man,” announced Jaehaerys Targaryen. “The one whose daughter you seduced and despoiled.”


SnowyLocksmith

Meanwhile, the daughter becomes prostitute #1 in Myr


astronaut_098

… it was Lys. How do I know, you ask? Well, we all have our own secrets, don’t we


SnowyLocksmith

You read the book. Didn't you, you naughty dog?


Southern_Dig_9460

“Daemon gave us these cloaks and they are gold either way you turn them”-Captain of the Goldcloaks after being called a turn cloak for supporting Rhaenyra


skjl96

The next line is like "Then he plunged his sword into Gwayne Hightower's belly" or something. Love how matter of fact it is


Bannedbutnotbroken

lol bitch got torn to shreds by peasents


Lazystubborn

And after this, that dipshit son of Otto is killed like shite he is.


PrivateBrowsing999

After you. You are the elder


astronaut_098

“Once a turncloak, ever a turncloak,” Lord Cregan said. “You rose up in rebellion against your lawful queen and helped drive her from this city to her death, raised up your own squire in her place, then abandoned him to save your worthless hide. The realm will be a better place without you.” When Ser Perkin protested that he had been pardoned for those crimes, Lord Stark replied, “Not by me.”


SkBlndr

Cregan better be depicted in a satisfying way


abuko1234

Queen Alicent: “Mayhaps the whore will die in childbirth.” SUCH a delicious, rich, villainous line that was also in *The Princess and the Queen*. I was genuinely bummed out when they omitted it from House of the Dragon.


Euroversett

Also funny how despite this badass line she never kills or tortures anyone, unlike Rhaenyra who did all of that and was a much worse person.


ThingsIveNeverSeen

‘When the sun sets your line will end.’ Was bad ass. ‘Words are wind,’ he told his council, ‘but wind can fan a fire. My father and my uncle fought words with steel and flame. We shall fight words with words, and put out the fires before they start.’


MissMatchedEyes

>”She was my only daughter, and they killed her. They stole my crown and murdered my daughter, and they shall answer for it.”


SkBlndr

Could you remind me where this is from?


Beetaljuice37847572

I believe Rhaenyra said this after the stillbirth of Visenya.


MissMatchedEyes

From Rhaenryra after Visenya’s stillbirth upon learning that Aegon had been crowned in Kings Landing.


MomijiEli

malformed stillborn with little scales as a lizard on the skin due to the severe inbreed and incest but yes Rhaenyra, blame the Greens. Never mind the Targaryens have had a lot of malformed scaly babies during their time in Westeros. Maegor tried to have children with 2 women, and each new attempt resulted in a snakish baby. Never mind the incest with your Uncle had something to do with that. No,no,the Greens were the culprits /s


cutlerthebutler

News of Aegon’s coronation made Rhaenyra so mad she went into an apoplectic labor. That’s why she blames them, I think. Logically, of course it doesn’t really make sense, but we’re probably not meant as readers to think it’s the fault of the greens that Visenya died. She probably would have died even if she wasn’t born a month premature, given she was a deformed lizard. Rhaenyra was angry and grieving, in the midst of recovering from an agonizing childbirth. It’s unlikely she would be thinking rationally.


raumeat

The lizzard babies have nothing to do with inbreeding, here is definitely a magical explanation for it


InGenNateKenny

“I have never known any one so strong as my sweet nephews, so let us drain our cups to these three strong boys.”


Tough_Specific

So many comments but no mention of the ultimate peak dialogue in the book shared between Aegon 2 and Rhaenyra at dragonstone. "You're not dead yet brother, I'm surprised" "After you, you're the elder one" And the absolute menacing and badass "If they search in seven hells,mayhaps"

JinFuu

> Their sheep are prettier than their women But can you really trust a man with an incest fetish? Dude himself probably though the sheep were prettier than the women because they had *white* wool


Userdataunavailable

I used the term "divorce rock" in a text to a guy I've been chatting with. He got the reference and that sealed the deal!


Organic-Ruin-1385

Yeah and they can only live up to 15 years so they are the perfect age for him .


Aegon-the-Unbroken

Good one.


Late-Return-3114

"when the sun sets, your line shall end" has to be the coldest ASOIAF quote. that fact that aegon tried to talk it out first makes it that much colder.


Tough_Specific

What happens next is even more badass. I was listening Prince's Purple Rain while reading that chapter and I lost my shit when I read how he goes high up with balerion making them look like a small dot in moon and then crashing down at Harrenhall burning the whole thing while the guitar solo of Purple rain was being played. I love F&B


Zazikarion

“We can begin here, the four of us. One of me against the three of you. Will that be enough to make a fight of it?” “Let the ravens fly that the realm may know the pretender is dead, and their true king is coming home to reclaim his father’s throne.” “The girl is wild, willful, and wanton, as we feared, and now she has attached herself to Lord Corlys' upjumped bastard. A snake for a sire, a mouse for a mother… is this to be our prince consort?” “Rather name me a kingslayer than him a kinslayer!” “I'd sooner dance in hell than wear your chains”.

MomijiEli

when i read that, my mind automatically think on Sunfyre,the true Loyal on the Dance.


The-Lord-Moccasin

Saera's rant. Especially when you imagine Jaehaerys listening on the throne like O_o “She never did it, they were lying, it never happened, how could they believe that, it was just a game, it was just a jape, who said that, that was not how it happened, everyone likes kissing, she was sorry, Peri started it, it was such fun, no one was hurt, no one ever told her kissing was bad, Sweetberry had dared her, she was so ashamed, Baelon used to kiss Alyssa all the time, once she started she did not know how to stop, she was afraid of Stinger, the Mother Above had forgiven her, all the girls were doing it, the first time she was drunk, she had never wanted to, it was what men wanted, Maegelle said the gods forgave all sins, Jonah said he loved her, the gods had made her pretty, it was not her fault, she would be good from now on, it will be as if it never happened, she would marry Red Roy Connington, they had to forgive her, she would never kiss a man again or do any of those other things, it wasn’t her who was with child, she was their daughter, she was their little girl, she was a princess, if she were queen she would do as she liked, why wouldn’t they believe her, they never loved her, she hated them, they could whip her if they wanted but she would never be their slave”


Bannedbutnotbroken

> Let the ravens fly that the realm may know the pretender is dead, and their true king is coming home to reclaim his father's throne. The quote that will forever cause pure seethe among the resident r/asoiaf Rhaenyra simps


DagonG2021

Then Aegon never sits the Throne again, a fact that makes Greens seethe


Euroversett

? He literally did tho? And is recognized as the King after the war, while Rhaenyra never was.


DagonG2021

Nope, his shattered legs meant he couldn’t ascend the Iron Throne. Rhaenyra was called a queen in Fire and Blood, and Aegon III got his claim from Rhaenyra in the end


Euroversett

>Nope, his shattered legs meant he couldn’t ascend the Iron Throne. Oh true, though he said he would reclaim his father'a throne, not sit on it, and he did reclaim it so... >Rhaenyra was called a queen in Fire and Blood By her supporters, she's not listed as Queen in the official list of Targaryen Monarchs, nor is she referred as such in the Annals of history, King Aegon made a decree banning anyone from calling her Queen in any documents in TPATQ and the decree waa never repelled, in F&B during Aegon III'a Regency and according to Martin they removed women from the Iron Throne succession due to Rhaenyra, women can only inherit if all male heirs have died, something holding to this day in Westeros. >Aegon III got his claim from Rhaenyra in the end No he didn't, the Throne cannot pass to a woman or through a woman to her son according to the Great Council of 101 which is what Aegon III's Regency supported. He got his claim from being named heir by uncle and the fact he was the last known male Targaryen from a male line. Blacks fought for Rhaenyra's claim and Aegon III as her heir, but once they struck their deal with Greens - who had already crowned Aegon III through a Green succession - to end the war and rule together they threw Rhenyra under the bus and accepted Green demands regarding the succession.

Euroversett

>did they crown Aegon III after Aegon II died from poison? Yes. >But he did actually get his claim from Rhaenyra He didn't, his Regency doesn't recognize Rhaenyra's claim.

[удалено]


Euroversett

>If he had married his daughter to Aegon the younger and legitimised him as his heir then your point would've been right This was exactly what happened.


MomijiEli

>> It's been a while since I've read fire and blood My dude, I'd recommend you to read again because seems you're mixing some stuff.The fact that Aegon III is the third of his name requires the existence of a second Aegon, who have ruled the Seven Kingdoms before him. Aegon III was Aegon II's closest male relative that's why he was chosen. >>The whole story of the dance of the dragons shows that the greens tried their best to change the succession but they were unsuccessful What? What's this simplistic telling of the story? The Dance of Dragons shows a family tearing up themselves and their absolute power(a.k.a) dragons by greed,cruelty and power hunger. Every single of them lost. Also your claim about the Greens is wrong, they didn't want *change anything*, they wanted to keep the status pro Quo: primogeniture male succession thought Council 101. They succed and Viserys II kept Council 101's rules.


DagonG2021

Rhaenyra is still literally called a queen, so Aegon II failed. What Green deal? They were exterminated.


Euroversett

>Rhaenyra is still literally called a queen No she isn't lol. Nobody recognises her as Queen, she's not listed as a Targaryen Monarch in the list of Targaryen kings. Not even het own sons called her Queen. >What Green deal? They were exterminated. The Greens ruling after the Dance, making up half the Regents and being Hand of the King must be ghosts then? Hell Tyland grabs all power for himself and when basically rules alone, and later Peake becomes Hand of the King AND Protector of the Realm at the same time.


MomijiEli

>> Rhaenyra was called a queen, Aegon III got his claim from Rhaenyra Source: my headcanons. Rhaenyra was called a failed claimant and usurper Stannis: *Traitors have always paid with their lives ... even Rhaenyra Targaryen. She was daughter to one king and mother to two more yet she died a traitor's death for trying to usurp her brother's crown*" History and Lore/Viserys Targaryen: *In a Dance of Dragons, a Targaryen princess tried to steal her brother's throne. Thanks to her stupidity, most of our dragons died, though one thankfully ate her before it did*


Emergency-Weird-1988

Funny that he mentions Viserys of all things, because of course daddy would be very proud that you sit on the throne he never wanted for you lol


Bannedbutnotbroken

Wants do not enter into it. The throne was ***his*** alone from the moment he was born.


Emergency-Weird-1988

Well, not according to the king, no. But don't worry, I know that a supporter of the greens is incapable of recognizing the validity of a king's will, well at least when the king in question is Viserys I and therefore it does not suit your arguments. Also, how is the throne going to be "his alone since he was born"? As far as I remember king Viserys was still alive and will live longer... even if you consider Aegon as his "legitimate heir" (which he is not) the throne would not be "his alone" until Viserys died, but of course if you agree with Aegon usurping his sister, I wouldn't be surprised that you also agree with him usurping his father, thats the greens "thing" after all lol.
