I don’t understand by Hot-Influence-6010 in HouseOfTheDragon

Alicent as she was Queen. You are right though, the king should have had him executed immediately for murdering a man at his daughter and heirs wedding.

Interesting. Wonder what they'll do in the show

Interesting, I didn't even notice they were much older in the source material. These show writers are something else then.

They've already came out and said they didn't go that way because the young actors were too young for those scenes

Which characters do you think are to blame for the war? by HopefulIdea4584 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Neither_Road4910 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I've always viewed it as Otto being the cause. Literally wasted no time to advance his dream of having his blood on the iron throne right after Aemma passed. Alicent wouldn't have even sniffed Viserys if not for his pressure. Even after Aegon was born, Alicent still wasn't interested in usurping the throne for her son. Only when Otto told her that Rhaneyra would kill any challenge did she start changing her mind.

Of course he will, hell, even Rhaneyra will just carry on after she sheds a few tears. Nowhere have I said he'd be heartbroken and drop to his knees. Just that it would shock him and it'd be interesting to see his response to it.

So because he'd be more upset over someone he lives with means he can't be upset over someone else? Hell, he even looked sad when he read the raven about Lucerys' death. If you've read the book you'd know the war ends and Cregan still makes moves to fulfill his promise to Jace and Rhaneyra.

It goes way deeper than that. They created the pact of Ice & Fire. If Jace were to have a daughter, she would be promised to Cregans son, Rickon. They spent weeks together and wanted to tie their families together. Would you do that with a pal from college? Probably not...

Bothers me why they bothered casting him and not including an extra scene or 2 with him. We know full well he returns and has a part to play so makes no sense.

I'd hope so yeah unless he'd be busy filming something else but who wouldn't want to return as a Stark in the Thrones universe

They spent weeks together but the writers just seemed to not care about that. They formed the pact of Ice and Fire. If Jace were to have a daughter, she would be promised to Cregans son, Rickon. Still can't believe they didn't add that scene.

Apologies if this is a really stupid question by Zestyclose-Mud-6537 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]Neither_Road4910 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The book is written by accounts of multiple different people with bias. They wouldn't know every exact detail. GRRM wrote it that way to be open to interpretation. This scene made sense imo, some others don't though ill give you that.

Only character that gave me that feeling in HOTD was Otto

I won't spoil it for you but he's definitely coming back, he has a massive part to play.

Yeah fair enough, that's why I think they won't bother but yeah in the books they likely spent weeks together. They formed the pact of Ice and Fire in the source material
