i do wish we’d see an adaptation of jaehaerys i’s era bc it’s like. gyldayn depicts it as the Golden Age of Targaryen Rule—the king’s road, alysanne’s influence abolishing the first night law, general prosperity across westeros, etc. meanwhile all of jaehaerys’ daughters experience patriarchal horror upon patriarchal horror before most die horribly (except for maegelle, who becomes a septa, and saera, who escapes) while rhaena the lesbian is roaming harrenhal and the specter of aerea targaryen’s trip to old valyria haunts the entire red keep.

what does that juxtaposition tell us about the targaryen family’s propensity for both doom and survival? how empire functions in asoiaf and on general? perhaps some foreshadowing to the tragedy at summerhall and dany’s rebirth in the flames years later? the adaptation should be gothic horror obviously

“As for my half brothers, and my sweet sister Helaena,” she announced, “they have been led astray by the counsel of evil men.”
