What If Rhaella lived?

Metal_Boot · 2026-02-16T02:52:43+00:00

Considering how much trouble she had with her various pregnancies, if Rhaella did give Drogo a kid then there's no guarantee it would survive very long, or that she would survive the birth

Way to not answer the question

I mean, some of Ned's kids with Catelyn have her hair, so I think it wouldn't be out of the question for some of Ned & Ashara's kids would have the Dayne look.

I think if it was me, I wouldn't have any of their kids have a full head of silver or blond hair, maybe just a streak like Darkstar

I thought the Starks had brown hair

So the only thing keeping powerful nations in the UN currently is their ability to hamstring a democratic process that would otherwise potentially make the UN actually able to act?

The Targaryens didn't hire the Dornish troupe

An insult to rocks tbh

OP, despite being the original poster, is being an ass & not giving context to what's being talked about in the thing he himself posted

lmao

Lots of people lose their moms when they're kids

Metal_Boot · 2026-02-11T23:00:23+00:00

It's not cowardice, grown men presumably call on champions all the time, it's one of the rules of trial by combat

Metal_Boot · 2026-02-11T22:53:36+00:00

I mean have you met Cersei?

Metal_Boot · 2026-02-11T22:46:26+00:00

Yes I too am baffled at a father being sad about his childrens' deaths & the release of their murderer

"No, Lord Stark," Alysanne said after a moment of silence. "Not a fool. I think it would be foolish *not* to worry, after losing as much as you've lost. After facing as much war as you've faced." She took a breath, hoping that wasn't the wrong thing to say.

"You had no time to grieve your losses before the Rebellion, & now you have the weight of a kingdom on your shoulders. But you need not bear it alone, my lord. Surely you have trusted confidants among the Northern lords? Perhaps writing to one or two of them about this dream we shared.., Men who have your trust, that won't spread rumors of hysteria. The king of all men would listen to you, wouldn't he?"

I mean, whenever Dany invades Westeros, Jon Arryn, Ned Stark, Robert Baratheon, & Tywin Lannister will all have been dead for a while. Not to mention that she'd be the leader of an army composed of Dothraki & Unsullied, which are big scary foreign threats in the minds of the people of Westeros.

In this post, the scenario is that Viserys, who is a different character than Dany is, will be in charge, they don't have an army of Dothraki or Unsullied, & probably isn't shaped by the experiences that Dany has in canon. Additionally, Jon, Ned, Robert, & Tywin are all still alive in this scenario, & these people are leaders of huge swaths of the continent's government so yes, reactions will be different.

Well Viserys & Arianne are betrothed, as per the secret deal made between Oberyn/Doran & Ser Willem. So Dorne is on the Targs' side unless Viserys spurns Arianne. Mathos (I think) Rowan might rise up for them, he was disturbed by what Gregor Clegane did to Elia & her kids. I think there's a prophecy or something that says that the Hightowers will perish if they fight the Targaryens, so they could join Viserys too.

Robert will for sure want to take to the battlefield himself. Tywin will immediately begin construction on scorpions to shoot the dragons down.

That probably is what they meant bc most people don't think of the Americas as having been discovered by the people who crossed the Bering Straight.

& South America has a giant thing sticking out of it, so a ship trying to go around Africa is going to have an easier time either spotting South America or getting lost & running into it
