Tonal Dance of Dragons has dragons. Blackfyre Rebellions doesn’t. That’s the only thing Dance of Dragons has over Blackfyre Rebellion. And Rhaenyra has only been depicted by drawing. So no comment man. If Drawings turn you on, hey I’m no one to judge.

@estevan128 5 лет назад

Robert O Leary he may be referring to the fact that Aegon (in the books) may be a Blackfyre. So if he becomes King of Westeros, then Blackfyre did win. It took a looooooooong time. But it happened. But I doubt that’ll be the ending.

How could you get them to break an honored contact and join forces with Aegon?” Illyrio waggled his fat fingers. "Some contracts are writ in ink, and some in blood. I say no more." A Dance with Dragons - Daenerys III: (only a few chapters later) "Her brother Viserys had once feasted the captains of the Golden Company, in hopes they might take up his cause.

@JZacharyFitz Месяц назад

I think aegon is who they say he is. I think Varys knew what was coming and needed a contingency plan if Robert was a monster. He wasn’t so they kept him in power and once it became clear Joffrey was horrible heir they started their grand scheme of aegon and Danny. Dothraki cavalry supporting golden company foot. Seems pretty unstoppable.

I think he is the true prince Aegon as when the spider kills Kevin Lannister he tells him everything. I don’t think he would of lied to him as he knew that he was dying and him knowing the true wouldn’t go any further ( like with when Jammie gave Lady Tyrell the position and then she hold him the truth about Joff)! I think he will become king as he is what the kingdom needs and Jon snow is the prince that was promised who kills the night king and is killed in the north beyond the wall and danny doesnt go mad…

Bryan Ganz Connington was already exiled when the war ended. It’s pretty easy to see how he’d get tricked into thinking it was Rhaegars son.
