“I will not fight you,” Princess Meria told Rhaenys, “nor will I kneel to you. Dorne has no king. Tell your brother that.”
“I shall,” Rhaenys replied, “but we will come again, Princess, and the next time we shall come with fire and blood.”
“Your words,” said Princess Meria. “Ours are Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken. You may burn us, my lady…but you will not bend us, break us, or make us bow. This is Dorne. You are not wanted here. Return at your peril.”
Thus queen and princess parted, and Dorne remained unconquered.

I find it hilarious when people hate on House Martell and dorne.
Why because they didn’t bow down to the conquerors?
They killed Rhaenys the conqueror and her dragon?
They didn’t fight in the dance of the dragons when it wasn’t their war to fight?
Because they were the only kingdom that defied the Targaryens and remained an independent kingdom until the reign of Daeron ii?
What is there to even hate about House Martell and Dorne

KINGS OF WESTEROS DURING AEGON'S CONQUEST
Aegon's Conquest, also called the Conquest, was the campaign in which Aegon I Targaryen conquered most of Westeros. Aegon subdued six of the Seven Kingdoms, successfully resisted only by Dorne.

I hate to be that person, but I just realized that between the beginning of DAO and DA4 there's about a 23/24 year gap, so you know... how to put it-
I don't think HoF and Alistair during Veilguard will be alive (or in good shape anyway), unless in the time between DAI and DA4 they have found a cure for the Calling.
David Gaider said in this 2012 interview:
"Thirty years is the maximum that you could probably expect. It's going to vary for an individual according to their willpower and the level of their interaction with the darkspawn. During a Blight you can expect that the Gray Wardens are going to have shorter lifespans. Outside of a Blight the Gray Wardens would tend to live longer. We have instances in the game of people going on their Calling after five or ten years quote shouldn't be taken as gospel, that's the way I like it. "
And probably everyone who became Gray Warden in the time between Awakening and the first act of DA2 will also be close to their Calling in Dragon Age the Veilguard.
i'm gonna cry

ASOIAF as historical paintings (17/∞) Meria Nymeros Martell, the Ruling Princess of Dorne during Aegon's Conquest
Meria: I will not fight you, nor will I kneel to you. Dorne has no king. Tell your brother that. Rhaenys: I shall, but we will come again, Princess, and the next time we shall come with fire and blood. Meria: Your words. Ours are Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken. You may burn us, my lady ... but you will not bend us, break us, or make us bow. This is Dorne. You are not wanted here. Return at your peril. (The World of Ice & Fire)

From left, Princess Rhaella Targaryen, Lady Joanna Lannister, The Princess of Dorne. All pre marriage
(My personal headcannon is that they were friends, and Rhaella sent Joanna away to protect her from Aerys)

Oh, yeah i have some speculations about HBO adaptation of aegon's conquest. Rest assured that the plot will be surrounded by a drunken lout middle child who on a spur of the moment decides to conquer an entire continent. An alleged dark sorceress firstborn who'd probably be jealous of her younger sister. The doomed youngest child who will embrace death first. [She also loved music, dancing, and poetry, but those traits might be erased cause who cares, right??] A half-brother who will be portrayed as a backbiter and harbouring resentment towards the conqueror trio because he is a bastard. I won't be surprised at all if Harren the Black is shown as a tragic figure. And it may also feature a happy and harmonious westeros where everyone lived amiably before evil megalomaniac freaks with purple eyes, who also rides fire breathing flying lizards decided to invade them.
#watch visenya plotting rhaenys's death with meria!#also rhaenys getting portrayed as an airhead#don't forget about aegon cheating on his wives with orys!#yeah i fucking hate that hbo is adapting my favourite characters#as if they haven’t butchered every single targaryens who were in hbo's adaptations#like sorry for assuming the worst#after what they did to dany you’d think hbo won't bother with targaryens since all targs are bound to be evil#but nooooo!!they gotta larp off dany's house#house targaryen#asoiaf#anti d&d#daenerys targaryen#aegon targaryen#aegon the conqueror#visenya targaryen#rhaenys targaryen#rhaenys the conqueror#pre asoiaf#game of thrones#house of the dragon

When the conquerors show happens and House Martell shows up and the rest of Dorne.
I’m defending them with my life. I’m defending everything house Martell and dorne does.
I’m gonna be worse than team black defending daemon Targaryen.

quite frankly, if they're gonna insist on doing something as boring as the conquest, they should just focus on the most interesting part of it which is dorne!
dorne like the other kingdoms refused to submit to the targaryens, but it was dorne alone that actually succeeded. and the person who was instrumental in that victory (albeit a heavy one) was princess meria martell. she was no dragonrider, just an old woman who quite frankly probably didn't relish the idea of war, but respected the meaning of her house words more. y'all can call that selfish, but how is that any more selfish than aegon deciding he needed to have westeros? at least dorne was meria's home and she was doing what her people wanted.
all the other kingdoms was solved fairly quickly but the first dornish war took 9 years. they killed rhaenys and her dragon. it would end with princess meria's death and her granddaughter travelling to a city that was full of people who wanted her dead or worse with terms for aegon, and ended up leaving it with dorne remaining independent due to aegon finally agreeing to it. and this was all thanks to a letter from prince nymor that nobody besides aegon knew the contents of.
edit: oh and poc writers being heavily involved would be necessary, a must

MARTELL WEEK - day O3
⤻ favorite moment
“I will not fight you,” Princess Meria told Rhaenys, “nor will I kneel to you. Dorne has no king. Tell your brother that.” “I shall,” Rhaenys replied, “but we will come again, Princess, and the next time we shall come with fire and blood.” “Your words,” said Princess Meria. “Ours are Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken. You may burn us, my lady...but you will not bend us, break us, or make us bow. This is Dorne. You are not wanted here. Return at your peril.” Thus queen and princess parted, and Dorne remained unconquered.
