"The Strength Of That Connection, And That Mutual Respect, And The Fact That They Are Of Equal Power

"The strength of that connection, and that mutual respect, and the fact that they are of equal power and equal intelligence and really honouring each other in a way that men and women can when they're at their best, is very striking and actually very intimidating, I think, for everybody around them. It gives them a sort of golden seal, doesn’t it, somehow? That makes them extremely [...] formidable." — EVE BEST, on Rhaenys’ and Corlys’ relationship, from “Plot Twist - House of the Dragon: Eve Best & Steve Toussaint”
