History will paint you a villain. A cold queen, grasping for power, and then defeated.

i know these two cripples were fighting outside the door who would visit the cripple king first. “your feet look so much like your mother's in certain lights”. “our sister's dream. she called it "the song of maelor the missed”. aegon just wants those freaks to leave him ALONE.

As a Targaryen, the easiest course of action you have when faced with a problem would be to simply get on your dragon and burn defenseless people.
Which is why Jace setting off and establishing diplomatic relationships with major houses will always be more impressive to me than the 19 y/o who burned a whole region in a pissy fit or his brother who took part in the bloodiest sack in Westerosi history.
Killing is easy when you’re on a beast high above the air facing people who can’t even outrun your flames, but convincing people to pledge their loyalty and men to your cause with words alone is hard.

In the birth of desire, the third person is always present.

Girard seems to see the bond between rivals in an erotic triangle as being even stronger, more heavily determinant of actions and choices, than anything in the bond between either of the lovers and the beloved.
