Any thoughts about Baela and her crossbow?
I love it. It's a weapon we don't see in Westeros, so she's taking after Corlys in that regard. Yes, Joffrey had one, but look at who we are talking about.
It seems as though it's a way to introduce her skills from in the book like sword fighting which according to Bethany we will see to some extent.
I just, I love it. Everyone was complaining about book Baela last season, and she seems to take after Laena and Rhaenys even with this skill. I love that it's being accredited to the woman who raised her.
I do think it will play a part in her being the Warrior to Jace's ruler in a sense. Team Black's Aemond, especially with her later story.
Swords are kind of phallic symbols, so introducing her with a crossbow means that she's cautious and waiting for the right time. It's just so great. I love the imagery and the fact that she's with Jace just makes it better.
Overall, I just hope we see her use weapons in combat rather than just by herself, even if it's just practice.
Also seems to be a similar scene (don't base stuff on outfits) so I just love the narrative being crafted.
Welcome back, Visenya Targaryen.
