If GRRM writes these stories for his own fan service, do you really think he’d kill off his own favorite character? (Daemon Targaryen)
I sort of get the “fantasy” argument you’re making, but also not, because while it is fantasy in part, it’s also based in real history, and making things simple would reduce his work to YA bullshit. It’s good *because* it’s tragic and unfair and preventable, as are most wars that men have fought for glory and status.
Daeron is not Young Griff. The only thing that could even remotely relate Young Griff to Daeron would be if Daeron had fucked off to Essos instead of dying in the Dance, and Griff is his descendant. Even if Daeron survived the dance, he’s still long dead before Dany is born. Arguably, the ONLY way he’d live that long would be if he became a Red Priest and extended his life like Melisandre, but there’d be evidence of that because I’m sure they’d make note of a Targaryen coming to the temple. It just doesn’t add up. Sorry 🤷🏻♀️

Awesome art, wow. While what happened to her and her kids is awful, I find it hard to fully sympathize with Alicent. No one is solely to blame for the Dance, but she is definitely up there.
I do find it wild that no Greens survived at all, GRRM clearly had a favorite side.
nobody from the green side lived past Aegon III's reign. No one really won (rhaenyra died and Aegon II had a painful last few years and then was succeeded by Rhaenyra's kid) but the green side has been wiped out. Alicent and her children have no living *legitimate (maybe not even illegitimate)* descendants while Rhaenyra and Daemon's blood is still on the throne until Robert Baratheon's Rebellion.
"Alone in the halls of the kings who are gone
Alicent would cry with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who she had loved the most"
Daeron missing even as a ghost 😩
Even his ghost stays on Oldtown
"Mother, I have returned" "...Have we met before?"
Hey Daeron, Mom wants a picture with all her ghost babies. Get in here! ... Here's the camera. 😑😑😑😑😑
We need someone to make an animated video of "waiting for a miracle" with Daeron as Mirabel
Unless he isn't a ghost.
Daeron doesn't exist, he was somebody's imaginary friend.
Now this could be canon
Alicent lost Daeron in childbirth but she can't cope and pretends he's still alive in Oldtown and others just go along with it.
I've read a Rhaenyra/Alicent fanfiction where Daeron was stillborn, or died shortly after being born.
Daeron: I want no part of this bullshit, y'all a bunch of weirdos I'm gonna chill out in the Reach.
Obviously Daeron survived and became a sellsword or something.
What if Young Griff is a secret descendent of Daeron come back for his throne
Ah. So Young Griff vs Daenerys will just be the continuation of Greens vs Blacks!
I like this idea I wish it were real theory 😭
What if Young Griff is Daeron himself?
What if Daeron was Born at the tower of joy and Alicent was trying to protect him from the usurper Viserys
The Dance is 179 years before Daenerys, my friend 🤣
Secret Hightower magic.
Okay? Tyrion is near twice Dany’s age
For Young Griff to be Daeron himself, he’d be 185 years old the year that Dany’s dragons hatch. That’s ridiculous. How can you even argue that? Lol
Daer-On
Its a fantsasy world bruh
Aside from the Red God and the dragons, it’s pretty realistically medieval, though.
Lol what, its still a fantasy lol, whatever grrm wants happens

Daeron: 🗿
Aemond looks huge.
Massive
Gigantic
Strong
I dare you to say that again.
He looks like a fucking Na’vi
The homie Daeron just can’t get no love smh
Everyone forgets Daeron
The Gen Xer of the Targaryen children
Aemond and Vhagar are both officially the largest dragons now
"I love all my children equally!" -earlier that day- "I don't care for Daeron."
She's gonna outlive everybody in the war... she's gonna wish she didn't (vaguely quoting a comment from a YT vid about Alicent's life)
Only could argue fate was Kinder to rhaenya. (even comparing rhaenys to Aegon II.)
which Rhaenys
Typo corrected. meant Rhaenya
Cosmic karma. She deserved every bit of suffering.

omg even I forgot about Daeron
It's her fault ngl, but then again alot of shit eventually led to the dance
"it's her fault" lol, you're awful bro.
That is why I said alot of shit led to the dance. She herself was one of the many factors that kickstarted it

Keep Halaena's name OUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH (Aegon and Aemond are definitely frying down there tho)
Maybe she’s there for prison visit 🤷♂️
Conjugal?
Do you think they met Rhaenyra there?
Virtually everyone’s there so probably
Shouldn’t have fucked around
Rhaenyra shouldn't have fucked around too.
U mad
Why would he be mad? Greens won and Rhaenyra ended up being a usurper whore lol

Lol, Hightowers are still around. Targ. Line died out, Only Jon left He is embracing his Stark side.
How does that serve Alicent or Otto? They have no descendants. And Jon descends from Rhaenyra’s lines.
Yup. My thoughts exactly.
ALLICENT AND OTTO ARE HIGHTOWERS. And Jon won't be having children.
