#meanwhile the green kids are watching their own mother be tortured alive for nothing

Okay but it actually breaks my heart that being named heir and remaining heir for Rhaenyra probably became this immense symbol in her life of the importance of her mother Aemma, the love of her father Viserys, the love between her parents, the idea that she mattered still despite losing her mother in her father’s endless pursuit of a male heir. Her father that than remarried and had an abundance of those male children Aemma didn’t. Had a new family, after she lost the only one she ever knew.
Remaining heir and becoming Queen must have meant everything to her. Did it matter if she had never wanted it begin with? What did it mean if she didn’t become Queen? then what was it all for…She was probably clutching onto her heirship so tight with bloody fingernails because of all it symbolized and still it was taken from her.
