More Recognition For Rhaenyra Targaryen.

Rhaegar won, damn him… He has Lyanna now

Here’s to the women who are only remembered through the lens of the men who live in the shadow of their sepulchers.

how many eyes does lord bloodraven have?

Viserys: Rhaenyra, my beloved girl. It so happens that we have a strained relationship with House Velaryon, which I made even worse when I refused to marry Laena Velaryon, who rides the largest and oldest dragon in Westeros. My council and I have decided that the Targaryens and Velaryons will be reconciled if you marry Laenor Velaryon. And you cannot refuse and choose any other man. Yes, Laenor is openly gay, always surrounded by other men, and he will leave you and return to Driftmark immediately after the wedding. Most likely, you will be lonely and unhappy, and will live your whole life not knowing what it is like to be in a loving marriage. And I am not even sure that you will become a mother in the future, given that Laenor obviously has no attraction for you. Have I mentioned how much I love you and will disinherit you if you do not marry Laenor?

Rhaenyra then gives birth to three children, obviously not by her husband, but by a man whose father wanted to execute her first lover she originally wanted to marry and loved: 🖕

subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update

Where did you get inspiration for Daemon outfit? Cus I once watched some soap opera in my country with a similar outfit.

I looked on Pinterest for inspiration, but the clothes I used for reference were much more detailed...

Rhaenyra

guilty as sin

The time he spent on the Stepstones made him forget how dull Viserys and his court were. Daemon was gone for eight years, yet the Red Keep has not changed at all in that time. He notices it as soon as he returns. Viserys has grown fatter, yet he’s still the same oblivious fool who wants to please every grasping lord and scheming lady. Every day, a feast or banquet is hosted to entertain the pompous lords and empty the Crown’s coffers, and merely a sennight after his return, Daemon is dying of boredom. There is only a single bright spot amidst the crowds of droning lords and ladies draped in ridiculous garments. Viserys’ daughter and Daemon’s niece – Rhaenyra.
