PART II

[sarcasticsweetlara]

I know the Valyrians canonically have blue eyes, but my headcanon about Daenaera Velaryon is that she got her blue eyes from her mother Hazel Harte and that among her children Daeron and Rhaena had her blue eyes, and her grandchildren Jon and Jeyne Waters had them as well

[horizon-verizon]

Baela & Rhaena placed a hit on Jaehaera cause why Baela had Daenaera up in KL like it was nothing ?

I think Rhaena had spies & courtesans whispering in Peake’s ears like “you are the hand, your daughter could be queen” knowing that he would try to harm that girl. Baela was tasked to find a replacement, a Valyrian bride from Essos perhaps with the help of Velaryon fleet.

Fast forward and instead of sending Alyn all the way to Essos to find Aegon’s new wife, they managed to find a Velaryon girl, Baela’s ward, an orphan, just like Aegon. Rhaena’s plan comes to fruition: Peake trying to pull an Otto and killing that girl. All Baela and Rhaena need now is to prepare Daenaera for KL.

It was genius when you think about it. Baela gets to solidify her maternal house status in KL by having the king’s wife be from House Velaryon & giving more protection to her brother, and Rhaena managed to completely destroy what’s left of the Green’s influence on the council by having him demoted.

Rhaena is very political astute and one thing about the Greens… they gon throw childish tantrums when their plans do not go as planned. She most likely knew Peake was going to threaten the king & council with his resignation. But the greed he had shown by trying to marry his daughter to Aegon rubbed the rest of the council the wrong way. thus no one was sad to see him go.

....I'm going to treat this as the joke I think it is and just not give a real answer.

btw, anon seems to respond to this post

Headcanon about Aegon's III children

Daeron I :

Perhaps he was named after Daenaera's father but considering that pretenders calling themselves Prince Daeron, son of King Viserys and Queen Alicent, Aegon III makes it clear that his son Daeron is the one and only Prince Daeron in the Seven Kingdoms. The future First of His Name. There is no other Daeron Targaryen.

As the king's eldest son and heir, Daeron received an education worthy of a prince and he is developed physically as well as intellectually. Sometimes his father once taught him how to play cyvase, thats why young prince was fond of playing it. He loved knightly tournaments and took part in them himself as a mystery knight.

The Lord Hand Viserys and Lord Alyn promote the marriage plan between Daeron I and Myriah Martell, but Daeron is not very keen on the match. Despite defeating the Dornishmen during his conquest of Dorne, the they are unable to realize their plan for the marriage. This can be similar to Rough Wooing.

Baelor I :

The Baelor was a bright and intelligent boy. However, being the second son he was not prepared to be a ruler. So he was raised as a future Septon.

During his reign, in addition to imprisoning his sisters, Baelor established the Inquisition - namely war against adulterers and heresies. The desire to cleanse the Kingdom from debauchery leads Baelor to trouble.

Daena :

Aegon III was an affectionate father, who delighted in spoiling his daughter, while her mother Daenaera was stricter.

According to canon, she didn't live a very long life. She may have lived during the reign of Aegon the Unworthy. Since then she died, having lost interest in life.

Rhaena :

As everyone knows, Rhaena is the quietest and most modest girl of all Aegon's children. She was very friendly with her cousin Naerys and sympathized with her very much.

Septa Rhaena serves as tutor to the Myriah Martell and get along very well with each other.

Elaena :

Little Elaena was a precocious child. When scarcely four and a half years old, she entertained at the Cousin's wedding on the musical instrumental. The touched and proud father, King Aegon III told Daenaera, that Elaena "the most amusing baby we have."

Even after she cut her hair, she was refused release from Maidenvault. Out of desperation, Elaena begged her brother to marry her to anyone, even an old man.

Alyn and Elaena - for me they are connected by passion, a dream of freedom and adventure. Marriage with sir Ronnell Penrose by cooperation, friendship and family. I think Michail Manwoody was Elaena's actual true love, because she saw herself in him. They were close in spirit and his harp playing is nostalgic for her, like returning home to her family.

[vesper-the-solitaire]

Rhaena Targaryen

Rhaena Targaryen, later septa Rhaena

Rhaena Targaryen was the fourth child and second daughter of Aegon III and Daenaera Velaryon, and the least famous of their children. In fact, Rhaena was very different from the strong-willed sisters Daena and Elaena right from her distinctive color (white for Rhaena, black for the other two) and was often overshadowed by them.

Rhaena, on the other hand, was more like her brother Baelor, although not as fanatical: she was pious and compassionate, sweet and gentle.

Unlike her sisters, she willingly accepted confinement in the Maidenvault, and at some point after her release, she joined the Faith as a septa.

Headcanon/personal theory: Rhaena is named after both her aunt Rhaena of Pentos, one of the two responsible for the marriage between Aegon and Daenaera, and her paternal grandmother Rhaenyra Targaryen.

SOAR BEYOND THE TRACKS CHAPTER ONE

𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭

The events of 129-131 AC left many a man speechless. Without a doubt, this is the most the realm has endured since the reign of terror of King Maegor Targaryen— and yet, there is no King Jaehaerys or Queen Alysanne to repair what has been broken. All that remains of the accursed Targaryens is a girl of eight name days, a boy of ten name days, and his younger brother nine name days old in a completely different continent.

Truly a tragedy, that the weight of an entire dynasty has fallen upon the shoulders of a boy of ten and a girl of nine. Each was as solemn as a man who witnessed the horrors of war, and admittedly, they did. They might not have seen the thousands of men burned to death, armour fused to their flesh from dragon flame, or smelt the decaying bodies of fallen men— but they have seen firsthand what power does to men, especially the Targaryens.

Luckily for the newly crowned King, the hour of the wolf came swiftly, but not silently— with Cregan Stark delivering justice to those that have allowed the continuation of the destruction of House Targaryen. Along with him, was Lady Elaena Arryn. Taking control of the Red Keep, she aided Cregan Stark in his battle against the corruption of King's Landing. Similarly to how she aided her dear cousin and Lady Paramount, Lady Jeyne Arryn— she proved intelligent. Not only that, despite not having any children of her own, she provided comforts to the new King and Queen. She especially guided King Aegon through his trauma and provided quiet company to Queen Jaehaera— no doubt having a distaste for the Dowager Queen.

Her efforts proved successful, and as time passed, after the death of Queen Jaehaera, King Aegon iii named his youngest daughter with Queen Daenaera— Elaena Targaryen. No doubt, a namesake for the lovely Elaena Arryn, who provided comfort to the King had scarcely been given after the death of Queen Rhaenyra.

— The accounts of Mushroom

Dear Elaena,

I write to you, in the hopes that you receive this on time. I'm sure you've heard, as rumours from the capital travel fast, that Aegon the Usurper is dead. Poisoned by his own men, like the rat that he is. Thank the Gods for that.

Lady Rhaena fairs well, as do I. She has been restless since the news of her sister's battle with Aegon reached Gulltown. We are preparing to set sail to Kings Landing, so I ask you this. Prepare to depart from the Eyrie at once, I have been separated from you for far too long. How I loathe the thought of you in the viper's den, breathing the same air as traitors and criminals, however, much is to be done, and I have no doubt your hand will allow the proceedings to run smoothly.

The Castellan has already been notified, and I trust you will depart from the Eyrie swiftly, and do not fear, Lord Yohn Royce shall watch after the Vale splendidly in our absences.

I shall see you soon.

Your cousin,

Lady Jeyne Arryn

Defender of the Vale

Warden of the East

Elaena sighed, running her comb through her tresses, and tried not to think too much about the steady rocking of the ship. In an hour or two, the Arryn's will reach Blackwater Bay. She has only visited the capital once, to celebrate one name day or another of one of the princes. What they say about Kings Landing turned out to be true. The stench of feces and unwashed bodies was enough for her to swear to never return— yet here she was.

To prepare, she took a bath, with the help of her dearest maids and companions. They scrubbed her within an inch of her life, with not a single flake of dead skin remaining. As well as dabbling her skin with fragrant oils as well as in her hair, which she had taken over combing through. She half heartedly listened to their chatter behind her as they prepared her dress. A pretty thing, not too extravagant considering where they were heading, but enough to show off Arryn's wealth. Even in a time like this, appearances mattered, as much as swords and titles. Looking her best would leave others to think twice before approaching her, in the hopes of baseless chatter.

"Oh, you're going to look lovely, m'lady," Millie said, smoothing down imaginary wrinkles from her silken dress. It was a deep midnight blue, with a square neckline, long sleeves, and golden thread embroidered around the hems and neckline depicting falcons. As she said, a beautiful thing.

Gentle hands pried the comb out of her hands, and she allowed Maya to work on her hair. Out of them all, the older girl had the most talent when braiding and styling hair— so she closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of skillful hands gently tugging through her long locks.

A hand clutched hers, and she looked from out the carriage window to the woman in front of her. Lady Jeyne Arryn, her dearest companion, her cousin, and her sister, has been a constant throughout her life. As steady as anyone she may know, sensed the inner turmoil plaguing her. Despite travelling to King's Landing to help fix the mess the Targaryen's had created, the Arryn's could face as much backlash as any of the other great houses. However much they helped during the war, no one truly came out victorious— momentarily perhaps, but the balance of the realm rests upon children. Children too young to rise to the challenge, and certainly too young to fill the mantle like their sucessors.

"Everything will be alright," Jeyne said slowly, drawing soft circles on the hand she was holding. Elaena smiled and flipped her hands so they were palm to palm. "I know you fear, but nothing will happen, I assure you"

Elaena took a deep breath and steadied herself. Jeyne was right and clutched her hand tighter. Fretting before she even stepped foot in the Red Keep will not help anyone. When their hands separated, her hands intertwined, and her fingers started to twirl the slender pieces of metal wrapped around her digits.

The stench of rot, feces, and unwashed bodies reached her nose, and she couldn't help but breathe into a handkerchief dabbed in fragrant oils, sharing an amused smile with Jeyne who did the same.

As the carriage rolled into the courtyard, Jeyne exited first, the royal Herald announcing her presence.

" Presenting, Lady Jeyne Arryn, Lady of the Vale, and Warden of the East!"

Elaena took one more fortifying breath and stepped out of the carriage a second later. The towering structure of the Red Keep sent a shiver down her spine. The horrors that occurred in this structure would no doubt leave a lasting impression on Elaena. Its pale red stone is a reminder of what comes to those who choose defiance over submission, Aegon the Conqueror made sure that all who gaze upon its castle are reminded of that fact.

Sweeping her gaze across the courtyard, she barely registered the herald announcing her name— noting the servants bustling around to foul their tasks, sparing only a glance at the Arryn party. She stepped next to Jeyne and felt her breath catch in her throat at the person who stepped forward to greet them.

A man, with wide shoulders, likely from swordsmanship over the years, shoulder-length brown hair pulled back and out of his face, and hard grey eyes that seemed to pierce through her very being. The large longsword peeking over his shoulder gave her the last indication of who he was.

Cregan Stark

He glared down at the incompetent lord blocking his path. The man was probably used to preening his way through court. Cregan didn't even know his name, his glare being indicator enough for the little lordling to turn on his heel and get out of his sight. He huffed and moved to continue towards the outer yard. He was notified that the Arryn's of the Vale would be reaching the keep shortly— and to keep appearances for diplomacy's sake, he stepped out to greet them.

If Cregan had it his way, he would be back home in the North, breathing in cold crisp air, untainted by the smell of the shit that plagues the air in Kings Landing. He has been in a dour moon as of late, more than usual.

Reaching the outer yard, he observed the scene around him. Servants carrying out their tasks, yet shooting wary glances at him and each other. With his arrival, the red jeep has been hesitantly restless. As if things were meant to get done, but the slightest movement out of place would mean their death.

A carriage appeared before him, a deep blue with silver and gold accents painted onto it, and a bright white falcon giving an indication of who was inside.

This would be the first time he's met the Lady of the Vale, only hearing of her character through the mouths of others. Shrewd and diligent, he had no doubt she would be helpful in mountains of work that awaited him in the chambers of the small council. The cunning men who helped shape this war into what it was still roamed the halls, mostly undisturbed from the horrors that occurred outside this stinking city. Cregan brushed those thoughts away and sharpened his mind, focusing back on what was happening in front of him. The capital is riddled with lords and ladies who have the time to play word games with him, time, that he does not have.

One task at a time

"Presenting, Lady Jeyne Arryn, Lady of the Vale, and Warden of the East!"

A tall woman exited the carriage, her features cold and regal, long brown hair remained unbound, and a tall slender stature— wearing a dark blue dress with simple falcon embroidery. Simple, but benefiting her station in terms of quality. She regarded him with the same detachment he was feeling. There was no place for smiles here, what would one smile for? He silently mused. The Queen was dead, and now her son, a boy of ten, sits the iron throne.

"And her cousin, as well as heir presumptive, Lady Elaena Arryn!"

Another woman exited the carriage and took the hand offered to help her step down. She couldn't have been more different from Lady Jeyne if she tried. The first thing he noticed was her hair. Long blond-red hair flowed down her back in waves reaching her waist— front pieces braided back with wisps that escaped framing her face. Smooth ivory skin, a delicate nose, a heart-shaped face and full pink lips. Disarming blue eyes surveyed the outer yard before reaching him. Similar to her cousin she wore a deep blue dress, with gold embroidered around the neckline and sleeves. He tensed and shifted his gaze towards Lady Jeyne.

Cregan did not need a distraction, what he needed was allies. Lady Jeyne stepped forward to greet him and gave a small curtsy as she said, "Greetings, Lord Stark" before rising to her full height once again.

He gave a slight bow, internally rolling his eyes at the false necessities he must endure for the time being. The southern customs bothered him endlessly, seeing no point in sucking up to each other. "Greetings Lady Jeyne, I welcome you to the Red Keep. I hope your travels weren't harsh"

She gave a short nod at that and responded. With that out of the way, he turned to Lady Elaena, watching as she gave a slightly deeper curtsy than her cousin, and greeted him, before returning to the Arryn party to arrange her servants— throwing a fleeting glance over her shoulder.

Snapping out of his stupor, he gestured for the two wardens to walk into the keep, ordering nearby servants to collect the Arryn's belongings along the way. Out of the corner of his eye, a flash of blue caught his eye and fully glanced over to see Lady Elaena directing her household. His eyes caught hers, steel grey clashing against bright blue. Their eyes remained connected, only breaking when one lord or another approached her. Shaking his head, Cregan focused on the droll conversation between him and Jeyne Arryn— pushing away any thoughts of bright hair and even brighter eyes.

[agentrouka-blog]

Killing off Jaehaera was completely unnecessary I mean would it really have changed anything if she was the mother of Aegon iii's children?

I agree that the manner of her death is absurdly cruel, but I also don't mind that GRRM killed the character? I think it's too neat an ending to the Dance to have both lines merge back into one, too much of a suggestion of reconciliation and harmony and healing. (I know, traumatized children, but still.) Jaehaera's death crushes that narrative. The obvious solution is dismantled and they are back where they started: a widowed king without a son to inherit. There's an open question once more, in the wake of her death, and the way Baela and Rhaena make use of a kindergarten-aged orphan ward to answer that question, a show of force and a decision coldly presented, disrupting an event that suggested the option of another intermarriage, to make a big fat point to the lords of Westeros about who controls House Targaryen and that Valyrian ancestry will always be preferred... it's creepy and gross and despicable and perfect. There are no good guys, no lessons learned. The young king may hate dragons but the blood of Old Valyria will run pure on the throne, no matter what, and it's enforced by the girls who are ultimately, most of all, Daemon's daughters.

It's ugly and dark and I kind of love it.

(PS: Ser Denys of Rhaenyra-supporting House Harte, supposedly hired a Faceless Man in Braavos just around the time Jaehaera died, and resulting in the late Hazel Harte's daughter Daenaera becoming queen? That's... quite a coincidence. Or a political conspiracy by those not interested in having Green blood on the throne. Old grudges die hard.)

[mejcinta]

If you had the chance to change something about the dance of the dragons (TV show or book), what would it be? For example, how a character dies, which team a house is on,or an entire character personally. How would you change it to make the story better, in your opinion?♥️🖤💙💚

House Velaryon would be split 50/50, with Vaemond's family joining the Greens in hopes of restoring Driftmark to people with trueborn Velaryon heirs.

The Vale would be split as well, and Jeyne Arryn would have to bargain with the Royces of Runestone (Rhea's people) to support Rhaenyra. Actually I'd make it that clashes break out in the Vale. Despite of the arrival of Joffrey and little Aegon's dragons, Rhaena would try to quell the Royces doubts with diplomatic talks, giving her more to do, and introducing her to her first husband Corywn Corbray in the process.

Instead of having Garmund Hightower sent away to be squire I'd have him remain in Oldtown, participating in politics as the Dance takes a toll on his father Ormund and his brothers. I'd actually do an Oldtown subplot in the show showing us the politically adept man that Rhaena marries in the future, quelling tensions at a time of instability and House Targaryen's dwindling power.

Helaena would participate more in government just as she was hinted to do in the books. I'd show why she was Beloved of Smallfolk and have her fly Dreamfyre more often, as well as make her more active in her relationships with her family members. She and Aegon would have a marriage of constant trials, she would give advice to her brothers and be a companion to Alicent constantly, accompanying her in the halls and encouraging her often when she's down. I feel like her bond with Alicent was underrepresented in the show.

I would highlight Aegon's night life, show his understanding of the outside world from which his family is sheltered behind the walls of the Keep. This would be good build up for when his Dragonstone arc is portrayed. We need to understand how he easily seduced the population of Dragonstone into turning against Rhaenyra.

I'd expand Alys' arc by building a connection between her and Larys. This would make her relationship with Aemond complex and would get you questioning her motives and loyalty. In the end she chooses Aemond out of sincerity, while Larys focuses on Aegon as his more malleable chess piece.

Alicent and Criston would have a romantic entanglement, but only after Viserys' death and Helaena becomes the new queen. This would make his death on his way back to her more tragic and darken Alicent's heart towards Rhaenyra.

Daeron would be present for Jaehaerys' funeral. Aegon would summon him as King, despite of Alicent's concerns that he's better off protected in Oldtown. After Aemond becomes Regent he sends Daeron to tackle the rising rebellions in the Reach against Aegon.

Vaemond's family strike an uneasy alliance with Alyn and Corlys after the war. In return Vaemond's son demands his daughter Daenaera be given to Aegon iii as wife. Rhaena oversees this sensitive negotiations and manages to strike a deal in the end.

Aemond would refuse to leave Harrenhal when Criston asks him to, because Alys was pregnant (he doesn't tell Criston this) and he fears for her safety should his family learn of her. At this time, Borros could still be looking to betroth Aemond to his daughter Floris as a strict condition for him to add to the Greens army. Aemond perceives this, and declines to go immediately to retake King's Landing. He wants to plan first before making a jump (the Alys bewitching him to abandon his family thing is too juvenile for me).

Daena should have been the mother of Daeron II the Good Targaryen

Daena was the true embodiment of a Targaryen.

I think if Viserys had married Daena before Baelor had the chance to lock her away, Daena could have had the chance to see the bigger picture of how to govern, and while trying to get justice for Daeron I Targaryen, like asking for the heads of the people who killed him and retribution from every Dornish House as the weight of every hostage on gold, and then Daena could have made the very same deal of betrothing Daeron II and Myriah Martell and later that of Daenerys and Maron, while betrothing Rhaena to a Marcher Lord, like a Lord of House Oakheart, to balance the alliances with Dorne and the Marches. The Oakhearts were a family that respected peace and liked the Faith and they would have treated Rhaena well.

They could have sent Baelor to a Sept where he could not bother anyone and therefore everyone would be happier.

Daena could have kept using the crown of her mother and thus it would've stayed within House Targaryen, and there would not have been Blackfyre Rebellions.

...

I imagine Daena convincing Daeron to let her marry Viserys and wanting to court and be courted by Viserys before marrying him, and then in the second year of their marriage they can have Daeron (in honor of her beloved brother/his eldest nephew), followed by Aegon (a more respectful and actual smart Aegon; and to honor Daena's father/Viserys' brother), Aemon the Dragon Knight, and Daenerys.

Rhaena could have had two daughters: Naerys and Visaella (we can be safe the name Naerys was used before the Conquest as it was considered a significant Targaryen name for Naerys to compensate for the Rogare blood in her in ASOIAF; and the name Visaella is possible as a variant of the name Visenya/Viserra).

Daeron would still marry Myriah Martell, and Daenerys to Maron.

Naerys and Aemon would marry and have a daughter Aerea Targaryen who would marry into House Dondarrion and become the mother of Kiera Dondarrion, the wife of Valarr Targaryen, and later Daeron The Drunken Targaryen.

Whereas Visaella could marry into House Dayne and be the mother of Dyanna Dayne.

(Rhaena was a scholar, but it's probable she developed agoraphobia after being stuck in the Maidenvault for so long; and she deserves to be part of the line of Azor Ashai.)

Aegon could have married Melissa Blackwood and have had Mya, Gwenys and Brynden, and through a relationship with Serenei have Shiera, who would be legitimized out of love and not to spite anyone; he could work as a Hand for his brother, and be a good person, and given his hard and long time working as a Hand for his brother and later his nephew Aerys, Aegon was legitimately known and recognized as Aegon IV "The Helpful".

Peace with Dorne would be done and steadfast.

Daena by Viserys' side would take wise decisions and consider the option to avenge Daeron but still work to have peace.

And it would be interesting because if they rule together it's completely different to how it was with her grandparents/his parents but still important; because with Rhaenyra and Daemon it was Rhaenyra the one taking decisions while Daemon enacted them, now it is shared by Daena and Viserys through a double claim. You can see the parallels to Henry VII and Elizabeth of York or Ferdinand II and Isabella of Castile.

And also, because Aegon III and Daenaera, and Daena above everything deserved to be in the main line of Azor Ashai, and because Viserys really deserved someone better than the abusive daughter of his kidnapper as a wife who left him in a very vulnerable position. Larra left when Viserys was becoming an adult who was wiser now and more mature as well, and when also her family had regained some of their riches, how convenient.

In this scenario Daenerys would look like her greatx4grandmothers Daena and Rhaena - it's nothing against Naerys, but we have to erase her since Larra would never have married Viserys, because it's possible part of the reason why Viserys didn't spend so much time with Aegon IV, Aemon and Naerys was because they looked like Larra; Aegon like Larra and Lysandro, - Viserys' biggest abusers - Aemon like Larra in a softer way, and Naerys like Larra and Viserys himself, an eternal reminder of what he went through with Larra.

Larra Rogare and her family only brought grief to Viserys' life, and while she may not have had another choice but leave her children behind, it is interesting to see Larra only returned to Lys once her older brother Moredo was able to get some of their old possessions back.

Maybe in other circumstances the relationship of Viserys and Larra could have been different but it was not, and Daena would have been perfect together, a reminder of Rhaenyra and Daemon.
