The best thing about the House of the Dragon series is that they add in new canon information from George himself. The best part was confirming of course the Aegon Conquest theory and also some lore for Valyria... For many years people would guess at how many dragons the Valyrian Free Hold owned. Now it so happens the show has confirmed it was minimally 1000 dragons🐉. Talk about overkill 😂.. Before this the only thing we could go off was that about 300 hundred dragons were sent to finish off the Rhoynar.. And that they did💀💀..What alot of Show only Viewers may not realize or remember is that the Targaryens were only 1/40 DragonLord families. It's also stated I believe that they were probably bottom 5-10 of all families 😭😭. Imagine how much more impressive the other families were. Here we have Aegon and 3 simple dragons claiming Westeros(R.I.P Meraxes🙏) .. And their ancestors had over 100x that amount..It is known as hat Aenor Targaryen only came to dragonstone with 5 dragons (1 which was Balerion). From that time till Aegon Conquest the other 4 would die somehow and Meraxes/Vhagar would be born from a set of eggs.. Just doing a simple amount of math we can deduce logically if you divide 1000 dragons by 40 families it would average out to about 25 per family. But as I just mentioned Aenor who family was lower ranking amongst the he dragon lord only had 5 dragons. So I'm thinking there probably were some families with at least 100 dragons strictly for their family 😳..

Imagine if they survived the doom.. Whitewalkers would've been toast easily 😂💯

Definitely need a short 1-3 season show on Valyria 🤔🙏🙏🤔. I would argue it should be animated since I think cgi work for a thousand dragons would be more $$$ then a standard all around animated show. They should either make it Avatar the Last Airbender style or Clone Wars Clay animation style in my opinion

A collage I made of Queen Nymeria of Dorne's fashions

During the 5th century AD, 1000 years before the events of GOT series, the Rhohynar Empire began to take form after the fall of the Valyrian Empire.

Nymeria is a Princess of the Rhohynar who led fleets in her conquest of Dorne, and thus becoming founder of the Martell dynasty in Dorne and first Martell Queen of Dorne.

I imagine her fashions having nods to the fashions of Tariq Ibn Ziyad ( leader of the Islamic conquest of Hispania ), Fatima Al Fihri ( founder of the first university in the world, University of Al Qarawiyyin ), Al Khayzuran ( Abbasid Empress and mother of Caliph Harun Al Rashid ), and Ismat Ad Din Khatun ( first Ayyubid Empress and Saladin's chief wife )

If this doesn’t describe Arya I don’t know what would. From the attitude to her physical symbolism. She looks like a stark. Like northern women, and she had a wild beauty to her.

The way George RR Martin has written Arya, and how arya named her direwolf after a witch warrior queen Nymeria of the Rhoyne. Visenya would rock a dress and still carry a sword to battle and wear battle wear and then ride her dragon to glory. She wasn’t scare at speaking her mind. She was the one that ruled. It was just her brother took the credit because he was a man.

Arya was skilled by her brothers. By Jon the most again a Targaryen prince. Bran and Jon would practice with her since an early age

Visenya’s sword “dark sister”

Arya is training with the house of black and white and working for the god of death himself. She is learning magical abilities as well as the ones she already has from her Stark blood.

Canon novel Arya fits perfectly with a warrior queen tittle.

Things said to Arya

“You will marry a king and rule his castle” ~ Eddard Stark GOT

“Different roads sometimes lead to the same castle who knows” Jon Snow GOT

I love strong women dominating in a world of men. Where they can pick up a sword and ride a mythical creature and be there in the battle field with her men.

She was the night wolf. But only when she dreamed. (The Blind Girl, ADWD) "The hour of the wolf. The blackest part of night, when all the world's asleep." (The Kingbreaker, ADWD)

Thinking thoughts...It's the longest, darkest hour of the night, Arya is the Night Wolf + Dark Heart, it's the time when "the world's asleep" and Arya wargs into Nymeria and the leader of a giant pack of wolves while sleeping, and it's likely she'll reunite with Nymeria right before the long night...

#arya stark #and it being the the hour before dawn...#corn plate moment or no y'all? cause I see the vision 🤭#It just fits so well? like Arya being the Night Wolf alone is enough for me to make the connection and run with it #also the hour of the wolf being an actual historical event denoting Cregan Stark's time in King's Landing?#reminds me of Harwin kneeling to Arya at the Inn of the Kneeling Man...Arya really stacking up historical references #The Lady of Winterfell-ism is just so strong in her chapters and connections how can I not say Queen #/a time for wolves/ was actually about Arya Nymeria their pack and her becoming a leader in the North (and I'm only half joking)#also feel like this could be tangentially related to Jon via the /Black Bastard's heart/ reference + him waking at the hour of the wolf +#his connection to the Others and the North + foreshadowing for KITN...could be a hint of his resurrection #or it could be nothing and I'm just overthinking things but I've seen a lot flimsier theories so 🤷🏾‍♀️#twow speculation #?? I guess

A Game of Thrones, Sansa I

She found Arya on the banks of the Trident, trying to hold Nymeria still while she brushed dried mud from her fur. The direwolf was not enjoying the process.

Arya was wearing the same riding leathers she had worn yesterday and the day before.

“You better put on something pretty,” Sansa told her. “Septa Mordane said so. We’re traveling in the queen’s wheelhouse with Princess Myrcella today.”

“I’m not,” Arya said, trying to brush a tangle out of Nymeria’s matted grey fur. “Mycah and I are going to ride upstream and look for rubies at the ford.”

“Rubies,” Sansa said, lost. “What rubies?”

Arya gave her a look like she was so stupid. “Rhaegar’s rubies. This is where King Robert killed him and won the crown.”

I still can't believe the disrespect that was done to Arya and nymeria's relationship. There were no attempts to show just how bonded Arya is to Nymeria and how truly she represents a part of Arya's soul. Those idiots did away completely with the magic of her arc and made Nymeria fuck off to god knows where even after Arya's return to Westeros. God knows what grrm saw in d&d. Their stupidity is the reason why there were takes about Sansa inheriting Nymeria (lmao the direwolf would sooner bite her own tail off)

#Am I salty about not getting to see Arya ride nymeria like the absolute queen she is?#Yes #Yes I am #And the magnificent stills of the targaryens riding their dragons just shows the missed potential of Arya's wolf army

I find it interesting how many people think Sansa's going to end up as Queen in the North in ASOIAF.

Unless I'm thinking of this wrong, I just kind of assumed that if anyone ended up as Queen in the North it would be someone who's central to the plot. I don't see someone not central to the plot ending up as Queen. The only two women central to the plot of ASOIAF are Daenerys and Arya.

I think Dany ruling as Dragon Queen of the South and Arya ruling as Wolf Queen of the North would be a pretty awesome ending. Both are strong but gentle. Both stand up to lords and are loved by the people. Both are intelligent. Dany may command more armies at the moment, but Arya does have Nymeria and her wolfpack at the Trident.

Anywho, just my thoughts.

Why Nettles (Netty) could be Rhoynish in the show (House of the Dragon).

In the small, nagging part of my mind, I had to draw a conclusion on how I observed the show in the lore of the universe. Seeing as fire and blood is a biased and altered retelling, I accepted that the show is just the canon timelime of events that take place during the dance of the dragons. That being said the upcoming presence of one of my favourite characters in the show Nettles has given me alot to contend with which is why, in an even worse part of my brain I decided that she could just as easily be Rhoynish. However, because I am not a complete anarchist, I decided to list some reasons as to why and how it would make sense in the show's continuity. Note here these points go with the established canon and SPOILERS FOR THE SHOW AND BOOK.

1. The Velaryons are black: The show's creators made the conscious descion to make the Velaryons black. While it wouldn't be an issue for Nettles to be half Velaryon with brown hair, I think it would make more sense to instead make her ethincally distinct while maintaining her character descriptions. This way not only would her status as a dragonseed be easily questioned (with the inclusion of a strong cultural tie to the Rhoynar) but it will also be able to allow for nuances with the prejudice pushed against Netty in the books( Filthy, Foul mouthed, Fearless, Brown skin). The actress could easily be mixed or black, seeing as the distinct features of the Rhoynish can be interpreted differently (not with white, obviously) to show the distinction as well. There is precedence for the prejudice with the history of the Rhoynar and Valyrians.

2. It gives basis for Rhaenyra's decisions: a theory as to why Rhaenyra wanted Nettles specifically dead was because she was a common looking girl who could allow for questions on Targaryen dominion over dragons. Another, sided with by the maester writing fire and blood, is that she is crazy and untrusting. While they are all valid points and ideas, that I support, a good added layer would be that a girl, recognized as Rhoynish (accents, look and so on) would be a threat to her. It would also add to the untrustworthy element of her character (folks tend to be racist to Dorne and the Rhoynish in the story).

3. It's just a fun way for conflict: Above all, I love drama in fantasy. The Valyrians and Rhoynish literally have centuries long beefs, seeing as they were the reason they fled Essos in the first place (shoutout to the spice wars). Making Nettles Rhoynish (partially and culturally) could create an internalised conflict as to why Rhaenyra could prompt that she would be untrustworthy. Her refusal to bend to Rhaenyra as an orphan of the green blood but fight for her claim and so on would be delicious pot stirring.

4. Daemon Targaryen: The man of the hour himself. A lot of what makes Nettles a fan favourite is that she seemingly is the only one that connects with Daemon Targaryen. His best moments( not villainous or monstrous) in the material are connected to her and their relationship as it develops. I just think that it would be an excellent reckoning for the Targaryen Supremicist to care for someone so far away from his family ideals and legacy.

5. My favourite part (Game of thrones fucked over Dorne): It haunts my dreams what they did to my baby. Literally my favourite part of the lore was destroyed in the show without a gun to the writers heads, for free I might add and as a BIPOC I want reperations. Currently, Hotd isn't starting off with the best track record with the way they portray women of colour, but they could attone by giving us a cool darkskin Rhoynish girl on a big, old dragon.

6. A Revised history: Baelor, the blessed changed a lot of stuff, and there are just a lot of things we will never know. With the show, however, we get to see the distinct narrative with the show and the inclusion of Rhoynish heritage would draw connections with the biased descriptions of our girl and the historical perception of the Dornish in the show. Also, she could be born on Driftmark with this explanation while not growing up there.

All this to say that I think it could be a real possibilty that could pay to fan service as well as character developement including but not limited to:

Sapphic interations with Nettles and Baela or Rhaena as the Rhoynish are tolerant towards same sex relationships. And more Sapphics in general tbh. Alysanne, Jeyne and Sabitha carrying the agenda on their backs

Expanding the established lore for the Rhoynar in either series, i.e., Nymeria and the Rhoynish influence in Dorne . What sets them apart.

The strangeness in her connection to a wild dragon. Being the only person recorded to bond with a wild dragon.

Physically setting her apart fron the folks in the show thus far.

Emphasising the Targaryen conflict with Dorne and prejudice in Westeros against them.

Showing distinctive practices and cultures in Dorne and with the Rhoynar as well.

Allowing for leaner rules when it comes to the character and sexual promiscuity

Me hating on the fact that the maester consistantly hates on my girl and sexualizes her, diminshing her agency in her own unknown life story.(I was personally victimized by Master Gyldayn and his maidenhead for a gold dragon and sex for sheep theories)

Lastly and again, conflict with precident other than Mad woman bad and jealous of the groomed poc child.

obviously labeling people as witches is rooted in misogyny, but would it NOT be cool if alys rivers actually did explode a man’s head with her mind? that’s cool

I also think it would be cool if a woman whose entire family down to the smallest child wasn't massacred in her presence before she was taken to the bed of the killer as a "prize of war" wasn't rewritten as something romantic or even spectaculising her acts of survival but well...

#asoiaf #I get where you're coming from but the context is always frowning #oh Rhaenys was a hoe cause she wasn't a pious eye in the ground wife #oh Visenya made Maegor by witchcraft because she's a frigid bitch how else #oh Nyneria is a witch queen in the songs because???#foreign woman with foreign religion and claims ro to equal rights with her husband what else from history would it be??#nymeria*

The Farwynds there were even queerer than the rest. Some said they were skinchangers, unholy creatures who could take on the forms of sea lions, walruses, even spotted whales, the wolves of the wild sea.

Lord Gylbert began to speak. He told of a wondrous land beyond the Sunset Sea, a land without winter or want, where death had no dominion. "Make me your king, and I shall lead you there," he cried. "We will build ten thousand ships as Nymeria once did and take sail with all our people to the land beyond the sunset. There every man shall be a king and every wife a queen."

//All i’m saying is: We could just do the House of the Dragon as a whole civil war show...Season 1 spans first 20ish years leading into the Dance of the Dragons...Then season 2 and maybe first half of 3 (or a full 3rd season) with the rest of the Dance and leading to Aegon II and Aegon III and then the other seasons you could focus on the first Blackfyre Rebellion and eventually the second Rebellion. It’s been repeated multiple times that the House of Dragon is at war with itself. Why stop at the Dance. There’s more Targaryen civil wars to follow, plus we get to see Baelor and Brynden Rivers....and other characters who i’m forgetting as of right now. It’d be a smart move.

#ooc #just ideas i've been having with my fiance cu he wants a show set like 100 years afterGOT and i'm like but the past! Aegon I reign..#or the doom of valyria + the first men and the children of the forest #azhor ahai and the long night #So many stories you could tell #Nymeria and Dorne #How is Essos doing now that Dany is dead and no threat of the dragon queen to make sure slavery doesn't restart?
