#how we know more about how wyllas tyrell and his family deal with his disability then aemond's

[lunamond]

Ever think about how much the Asoiaf books delve into the experiences of characters with disabled or non-conforming bodies? And how GOT went on to completely forget those? And how in Hotd Aemond's experiences as a disabled person are also completely ignored?

How after a childhood of being seen as deficient for being dragonless he will go on to face a life of being seen as deficient for missing his eye? How he might have chronic pain and permanent nerv damage? How he would have to work harder than anybody else to fight well despite his lack of depth perception and reduced field of vision? And how no matter how hard he works every opponents will still immediately know what his weakness is? How he changed from a timid and reserved boy to an aggressive and violent man? How his new persona was most likely crafted in an effort to protect himself?
