seeing emily's old valyria thoughts is making me think about how . . . the targaryens weren't even the strongest family in valyria?? they were dragonlords, yes. but they were nowhere near being a top family?? and the power of their house is just so deeply separate from every westerosi house because of the dragons (like, they're just on another level in terms of . . . well every notion/school of power). but, imagine if one of the top families had settled in westeros instead of the targaryens???
#;; also dragonlord being an incredibly neutral title in terms of gender?? as dragons know no gender??? and do not adhere to gendered norms#;; if one of the powerful dragonlord families had settled in westeros . . . sorcery would have certainly been more prominent#;; and i'm *certain* that we would have seen a similar outcome to the valyrian freehold . . . which was *horrific* in terms of human rights#;; the conquest by aegon and visenya and rhaenys was fully with the intent of uniting the kingdoms against the darkness beyond the wall#;; it HAD to be the targaryens because i suspect that their magic isn't JUST valyrian sorcery but rather an inherent connection to the more#;; RAW NATURE of magic . . . especially with the fact that we have targaryen dreamers?? this isn't a one-off with daenys. it's persistent#;; and i think this more raw connection is what saved them because while other dragonlords were BLINDED by the power they wielded#;; daenys as a dreamer wasn't lulled by the sorcery . . . she was AWAKENED BY HER DREAMS/RAW MAGIC!!!!#;; AND THE DRAGON DREAMS ARE TIED TO FATE AND THE DESTINY OF THE VERY UNIVERSE!!!
