GEORGE R. R. MARTINS STATEMENTS ANDHOUSE OF THE DRAGONINDICATING THAT DAENERYS TARGARYEN IS THE PROPHESIED

GEORGE R. R. MARTIN’S STATEMENTS AND HOUSE OF THE DRAGON INDICATING THAT DAENERYS TARGARYEN IS THE PROPHESIED HERO OF A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE

George R. R. Martin: *associates Daenerys with the founder of the Targaryen dynasty who intended to unite Westeros in preparation for the War for the Dawn - she’s literally called “Aegon the Conqueror with teats”*

*has Daenerys dream about burning white walkers with dragonfire* 

*makes it clear that Daenerys is Azor Ahai/Princess That Was Promised* (“Azor Ahai shall […] wake dragons out of stone”/“No one ever looked for a girl. […] Daenerys is the one. […] The dragons prove it.”)

*confirms that Daenerys and her dragons are the Fire - which, according to his own description, symbolizes “love”, “passion” and “sexual ardor” in contrast to Ice representing “betrayal”, “revenge” and “cold inhumanity” - of A Song of Ice and Fire*

House of the Dragon (note that GRRM had more influence on that show than on Game of Thrones): *plays a song called “The Prince That Was Promised” - which was inspired by Daenerys’ theme songs - during the reveal of Aegon I’s prophetic dream (which came from GRRM himself)*

*has Aegon I name his dream ‘the song of ice and fire’ - which, as the GRRM himself already confirmed, refers to the Others and Daenerys Targaryen and her dragons*

*reveals that Aegon I’s dream (aka the song of ice and fire) is about a Targaryen king or queen - most likely Daenerys Targaryen - uniting humanity against the Others*

*has Daemon see the red comet (aka the herald of Azor Ahai) before it cuts to Daenerys (aka Aegon the Conqueror with teats, Azor Ahai Returned/Prince That Was Promised, the Fire of ASOIAF) and her dragons (aka Lightbringer) in his prophetic dream*

Lmfao, never mind that the Targaryens switched from Valyrian god worship to the Faith of the Seven to adopt Westerosi culture.

Never mind that they adopted a house sigil to adopt to Westerosi House customs.

Never mind that they married people from non-Valyrian descended Houses like Martell, Dayne, Blackwood, Arryn...

Literally what part of this says "spit on Westerosi customs" lmfao?

Wherever the Queen went, people would flock to see her, and Elizabeth would often stop her horse or litter to talk with them. The Queen had a great way with people, always knowing the right thing to say and do, and enjoyed talking to her poor subjects as much as her rich. She had the common touch and this was something her Stuart successors lacked. Indeed, Sir Walter Raleigh once told King James I that one of the reasons Queen Elizabeth had been so popular was because she was "a queen of the poor as well as the rich". The Queen loved the pagents the poor people put on for her, even though they were not as sophisticated as the ones at court, and always appreciated their gifts, great and small. -- ElizabethI.org

It can't be overstated how hugely important the common touch was for royals and their success as a monarch. That's why it's no small thing that in ASOIAF we see characters like Arya, Dany, Margaery, and Alysanne going among the common people, working to understand their plight, and gaining their love.

He sent his pregnant queen, Rhaella, and his younger son and new heir, Viserys, away to Dragonstone || We speak of Rhaegar’s sister, born on Dragonstone before its fall. The one they called Daenerys.

Queen Rhaella’s children were   P R E C I O U S   to her.

Yet another Daenerys and Elizabeth I parallel is that they both fulfilled prophecies. Dany clearly has prophecies coming at her from every direction in the novel series. With Elizabeth I, the one she supposedly fulfilled is less known since she has become iconic in countless other areas but this is still interesting:

I had already known that her grandfather Henry VII was believed to fulfill the Son of Destiny prophecy -- one of the ways he was clearly an inspiration for Dany as well.

Basically, when creating Daenerys, GRRM clearly blended Elizabeth I with Henry VII and added a few cups of Galla Placidia.
