Wonder why y’all not talking about the alliance Rhaenyra had with Daemon.
The alliance isn't as strong as Green Camp right now and everyone already saw it coming. The Green struck everyone by surprise. Otto sitting on the throne next episode might be the first hit from Hightower

The don't just have the money, they have the army. They believe their daughter was killed because of Daemon and they also believe their son Laenor was murdered and they know it has something to do with Rhaenyra after the sudden marriage with Daemon, so they might be with the Hightower but let just see how next episode will play out.

You know their 2 children are already against the Children of the Queen

It was the defence of one of the Black kids that led to the fight

So it seems Alicent kids vs Rhaenyra kids + the Daemon Black kids

Sir Corlys Varleyon grandchildren are with Rheanyra, even tho he knows they are bastards.
He can never fight against his grandchildren.

We should look at it this way... Rhaenyra and Daemon+ all children are one piece, House Hightower (Alicient, Otto and children) are another. What makes the difference is alliances with other houses, like House Strong now is with Alicient who is more like the intelligence, House Velaryon, other houses might come up as show proceed, like House Baratheon who I think are the Lord of the Sea too like Velaryon, House Stark (Rikon Stark), this houses might serve as the Knights and army to the war coming.

Dragons don't win wars, we can't judge with how many Dragons Daemon and Rhaenyra has or how many Alicient has, the way we saw the battle with the Crab Feeder, Episode 3 was made purposely to make fan understand that having Dragons is not really a game changer these time period as you can see Daemon dragon was a bad news which put them on disadvantage and they had to come with another strategy, unlike during Game of Thrones that owning a Dragon was a big deal. Remember Cersie telling his comrade back then that in old times people don't fear dragon much because they can be killed.

Dragons don't win war. You are right by this. In fact, I will rather choose to have Lord Lary on my team than Caraxes.

Alicient interrupted the King's speech with her grand entrance which is a sign of rebel and As Larys Strong says to his brother: "The beacon on the Hightower. Do you know what color it glows when Oldtown calls its banners to war?"

The response: of course, is green

She is indirectly drawing the war line. Green stand for war and envy.

Why is he against Reheanyra?
Re: Games Of Thrones: House Of The Dragon Official Discussion Thread by Nobody: 5:59pm On Oct 04, 2022
Zee0007:


Why is he against Reheanyra?
Many people overlook him due to the fact that he was born with clubfoot, which causes him to limp. Larys told Alicent that being ignored taught him to be an observer. He offers Alicent some of the information he observed for her to use for her own purposes. This sparks an alliance and friendship between Alicent and Larys that remains intact after the ten-year time gap.

In episode six Larys is working with Alicent, bringing her the secrets he hears, much like Varys in Game of Thrones. However, unlike Varys, Larys is quick to take actions of his own. When Alicent says she misses her father, wishing that he were still the Hand of the King since he would side with her over Rhaenyra, Larys takes note. He agrees that Lyonel Strong, Larys’ father and current Hand of the King, cannot be impartial due to the well-supported rumor that Rhaenyra’s sons were fathered by Larys’ brother Harwin. The solution Larys finds to this problem is to arrange for criminals to go and start a fire at Harrenhal, killing both his father and his brother.

But the death of Lyonel and Harwin benefits Larys too. Upon their death, Larys becomes the Lord of Harrenhal. So if anything happens he would say he did for the Queen, taking the blame off himself.

Though it is not yet apparent what his goals are, it is obvious that Larys is more intelligent than most of his opponents in the show. This makes him a dangerous enemy, but a fascinating villain in the future. As the show goes on, Larys is sure to become a bigger part, and hopefully, his villainy will stay just as dark and twisted as it was in previous episode.

If the writers cannot agree on anything else, Larys should give the audience someone to root against.

Truly dragons don't win wars but they tip the scale of battles and give some advantages to the owners. That's why getting vhagar is a great win for the greens despite the fact that the blacks have more potential dragons in their possession.

But you're wrong in choosing Lord larys over caraxes, Larys might be a good strategist and a psycho but only caraxes can withstand the strength of vhagar despite the former being smaller. He is not called the bloodwyrm for nothing, he is a badass grin grin

Though I love Larys too he's a unpredictable mthrfcker

Lolz. From the narrator's opening remark in Episode 1. It was clearly stated that the only thing that can bring the house of dragon down it's itself.

King Visery onced told the young Reheanrya that what make them powerful is not what Reheanrya taught. The dragon is an illusion of their power. The little gossips and alliance are what change the course of the throne.

I still maintain. I will rather choose a creepy Lary than a dragon. cheesy
