okay, not to argue but
1) this point is mute because aegon was never born of incest anyways
2) he’s still part of the MOST IMPORTANT house in the country, way more than most due to their dragon blood
3) he wouldn’t hold the ancestral seat due to him not being important is he wasn’t viserys son
3) a trade he’d have no part in due to him not being important if viserys wasn’t his dad
4) same thing as the last point. the matters very little to him in all canons
5) the citadel…he did not care about
In short, him being part hightower is the bad thing, it’s his family using him to extend their own power since being apart of house Hightower didn’t get them anything which also got Aegon nothing…because like in house Targaryen succession, they were all pretty low on the ruling list. and Aegon’s relationship with sunfyre seems to be a fanon thing because in canon, he jumped off his dragon to then have it die alone and didn’t wait to find the “bigger and better sunfyre.”
yall over extend house Hightower’s importance to much for a house that is currently being ran by a wizard in a tower…which is hella more interesting than alicent and her family.
I have never understood why people (tb )call Aegon "Aegon Hightower" and act like it's some great gotcha moment. All they're saying is
a) he wasn't born of incest and
b) he's from one of the most powerful families in the country, who
c) hold an ancestral seat located in the oldest city in the country,
d) control trade due to their location beside the sea,
e) have the Starry Sept which is where the High Septon lives as well as
f) the Citadel, which is the foremost center of learning in Westeros.
In summary, I don't get why him being a Hightower is a bad thing. And in any case, he does still have Sunfyre (my beloved dragon) and they have the best dragon-rider bond ever seen. This has been a huge rant, thanks for reading!
