BraniacX:
valyria was a freehold, sort of like the Roman republic, it had no kings and rulers so the concept of inheritance of a title was less significant, what was important was showing that any individual member of any great house who wanted their status as a voting member of the peerage or their version of the senate should be of pure valyrian stock, a proven dragon rider and have the requisite amount of wealth and real estate.
Being king, Viserys had autocratic powers, so when he chose rhaenyra as heir, he was exercising his powers, when he had a son and still kept rhaenyra as heir being sound of mind and body at the time, that decision was engraved in stone, the decision was his to make, not that of Otto or any other person, when confronted with situations that will cast aspersions on the person of his chosen successor Viserys reinforced his decision by protecting the honour of his anointed successor from attack even as far as sacking Otto hightower! It doesn't need any further confirmation than that, that particular succession was not left to tradition and precedence once the king named a successor! That is all that matters

Oh .okay..sometimes,power is not absolute..
So king jahaerys could have also crowned viserys the heir because he too had autocratic powers right,if the princess rhaenys was male,do you believe that jahaerys would have put it to vote?maybe there's something I'm missing,but we are given the notion that era was a fully patriarchal society,even when Aegon was born,rhaenera was so insecure about her status as heir.
Remember when even Princess rhaenys told rhaenera that men would burn the kingdom before letting a woman ascend the iron throne,that was her being very realistic and practical.
All this comes down to viserys being naive,something that had not been done before in westeros,why would he think that things would change and people would just accept it,oh wait..you said because he's king and his word is final abi .

BraniacX:
an oath is binding, he was a honourable man who thought an oath of fealty was a binding pact that even his family dare not challenge, but we know how human nature works in succession struggles world over even within families, if her family didn't dispute her succession no one else would have dared! So no, she was set up not by her father but by her father's hand Otto high tower and house hightower

Pardon me,I have not read the books,but even from the days of old valyria,has there been any instance where a female child was named heir? I get that he did so when he had no sons,but like Otto said,the moment Aegon was born,things changed,whether it was honourable or not,it is what is.
I still maintain that viserys wasn't a "wise king".cos he knew the kind of character hightower was,did he just think that they would let rhaenera rule? When he has legitimate sons? He was just being naive

A very wise king and father indeed ..

I still maintain that he's the one who brought discord to his house .very emotional when making decisions..he's a king not a f*cking ice cream seller

Vulcanheph:
I love your perspective and you have helped throw more light on why he didn't change Rhaenyra as heir... Viserys was a honourable man but what was a fact in westeros was that a woman sitting on the iron throne will face a lot of challenges unlike a man... This is what Jaeherys knew that's why he didn't give Rhaenys the throne and manipulated it to be given to Viserys instead without really doing it himself.( just like you said).
When you're in a position of power you gotta learn to make hard decisions no matter what or who is involved.
If Viserys had called a council and made the people to choose who they want (which I'm sure , they would choose Aegon) ... Then the "Dance of the Dragons" would have never happened.

Exactly,he just set rhanerya up for war,left to me,he's the cause of the *dance of dragons*

BraniacX:
the only power that can destroy the house of the dragon is the house of the dragon, that is the only philosophy Viserys is guided by and that is why at all costs he always tries to maintain peace amongst all the living targaryeans in a balancing act, going by the result of the civil war he was right, he was the wisest targaryean of that generation in my opinion, the rest of them had too much fire in their hearts and too much blood in their eyes

I still opine that viceroys wasn't a wise king,the fact that he purposely kept a blind eye and was obviously biased towards rhanerya,did he think he would love forever to keep covering for her? Remember that scene where he queried Aegon about who told him about rhaenera bastards,his reply was "look at them,everyone knows".he knew. Did he think that not acknowledging the problem would make it disappear? Why did he think the jaeharys council choose him over princess rhaenys? It was because he was male,he now has full targaryen sons and you'd expect the realm to accept his daughters? One full worth controversy?

Pls who are the greens?

People loyal queen alicent

raumdeuter:
I love the Rhaenyra and Daemon alliance

Mehn,she just had to .seeing that the greens already had 3 dragons,vhaegar included,she stood no chance at all,very calculated move from her

Zee0007:
Aemond seems to be the perfect nemesis for Reheayra and Daemond's alliance.

A part of me wants the producers to give a little twist from the fire and blood book I read and another part wants them to follow the book.

That scene where aemond talked about losing an eye and gaining a dragon was where tilted the war,you could see the fear in rhanera's eyes,even Daemon couldn't hide his admiration for that ballsy talk,it also seemed like a threat that the gain of the dragon vhaegar would be needed in the war to come,an eye is nothing compared to what the oldest living and most experienced dragon can do

Zee0007:


You are right to mention emotion. The king Visery is such a great king. He knew it was emotions and he didn't give in to her emotions.

A Queen of such repute shouldn't be riding on emotions. Her emotions will bring mockery to her in king's landing. As a ruler, regardless the circumstances, one shouldn't be driven by emotions.

Alicent learnt from emotions when lord lary came and suggested revenge. She didn't oblige.

Note: The brave will always ride on the weaklings. As it is now, Aemond is riding the biggest dragon.

King viserys a great king? he's just a weakling who has been making poor decisions that has landed his family at this stage..where was his emotions when he married his daughters best friend? What did he think would happen when he maintained his daughter as heir knowing fully well that even himself got the crown cos he's a man .especially after having sons .he was just setting his family up for doom,and like Daemon said,he's a bad ruler

My Episode 7 Analysis

It was such an interesting episode to watch. I was able to deduce the following.

1) Father became proud of his daughter and grandson. Otto Hightower waited all his life for the dark side of his daughter—Alicent. Finally, he saw it and was perplexed. Also, his grandson Aemond gave him a glimpse of victory in view.

My favourite scene was the speech Aemond gave after his mum wanted to get flesh for flesh. "Don't fight for me mother. I must have lost an eye but I have gained a dragon."

2) Ser Laenor is becoming a darling. He now understands the throne politicking.

3) Aegon the wankerer is getting foolish as the day goes by.

4) Reheayra is losing and she's not aware.

I will rate this episode 8/10. The battle for the iron throne has begun. The dark sides of each claim are showing.

My newfound favourite character:

==> Aemond

Very solid episode,but I don't really see it as a "bad side" for alicent,a mother has just experienced the loss of an eye of her last born,emotions are bound to be all over the place and a mother would do everything possible to protect her child and also,good one by aemond,fortune favours the bravve

JoshTheStoic:
I love the way Aemond claimed Vhagar. In his words "Do not mourn me Mother, it was a fair exchange, I may have lost an eye but I gained a dragon".

Bruhh...that's stuff of balls,and it takes someone ballsy to claim vhaegar...fair play to him

Idrismusty97:
They just forget you ne, Two sets have completed TS and OJT since you did your medicals February and they all applied after you. It's unfortunate but it's rare, God help all of us. There's a girl in this TS they forgot since last year, she had to reapply and did everything again.

The moment you see they start a new application you don't need anyone to tell you you're dusted. Either reapply or move on hopefully to better things.

Haba,don't discourage people like that, .its only one set that has finished otj rotation this whole year,so it's not far fetched for one to still have hope.besides the set that has finished otj rotation this year started the recruitment process last year

Zordib:
