"Do you want to see your death, child?"

Cuts to dragon torch breathing fire, my head was quietly exploding inside. I watch with my boyfriend who has not heard the Dance of the Dragons before and doesn't seem to remember Joffrey spoiling it in GOT S3 either. So I have to keep my mouth shut!

I hate that this is how Rhaenrya goes out I wish Aegon II had an equally public and gruesome death rather than just being poisoned.

I know the events leading up to the war, and I've only go so far in the book where Daemon and Rhaerya are holding their own coronation for her at Dragonstone.

I know the whole story, and have done before HOTD was even announced because I was a huge nerd and read a ton of background ASOIAF lore. But I assume if we're in the spoiler thread then it's all fair game to discuss here

I was reading Fire and Blood and loving it, but when I heard they were doing HOTD, I put it on the shelf cause I didn't want to be like, "Oh, this is not how it was..." LMAO!!! and yet, I'm knowingly spoiling myself!! LOL! So, I should just continue reading the book! LOL!

I basically know the summary of what should happen, not too many details. But looking forward to finding out

There's a lot of room for filling in gaps. Hopefully they'll fill those with epic fight scenes and yearning looks

what I don't understand is why Rhae and Laena were such good friends. No jealousy to contend with?

do you think the show will involve Daemon in Laenor's death of would that be too damning?
