Wmarshal Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Wouldn't that make Aegon a brightflae not blackfyre? And thinking like that put ahead of Dany be it brightflames are just a cadet trueborn targ line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bright Blue Eyes Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Why not both? And yes, a certain Council nonwithstanding, the Brightflames are ahead of Egg's line/Dany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bittersteel Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Why not both? And yes, a certain Council nonwithstanding, the Brightflames are ahead of Egg's line/Dany. Not anymore, in terms of line of succession it's relation to the last king that matters, ergo Egg's line takes precedence over Brightflame descendants.

Trigger Warning Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Wasn't Brightflame just Aerion's byname, not his house. His line would be Targeryens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoamingRonin Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Wasn't Brightflame just Aerion's byname, not his house. His line would be Targeryens.Yes. Calling his children Brightflames would be like calling Dany's children Stormborns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of. If said King wasn't legitimate, all his heirs weren't legitimate either. But Egg was. That's why I mentioned the Council. Wasn't Brightflame just Aerion's byname, not his house. Same as Blackfyre. Nevertheless, it doesn't matter. It's just a name to identify them, not their claime to the IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoamingRonin Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 There isn't a House Brightflame so it can't really be compared to the Blackfyres. If Aerion "Brightflame" Targaryen's line continued with true born heirs and Illyrio is of that line then would be Illyrio Targaryen. If Aegon is his true born son then he would be... Aegon Targaryen. If Serra is a Blackfyre then Aegon would be part Blackfyre part Targaryen which is to say... Targaryen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorian Martell Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Wouldn't that make Aegon a brightflae not blackfyre? And thinking like that put ahead of Dany be it brightflames are just a cadet trueborn targ line?If you are referring to the theory of Illiryo as Aegon's father, If he is, then Aegon is a Mopatis, regardless of the lineage of his dad. Wasn't Brightflame just Aerion's byname, not his house. His line would be Targeryens.yes Yes. Calling his children Brightflames would be like calling Dany's children Stormborns.Exactly Sort of. If said King wasn't legitimate, all his heirs weren't legitimate either. But Egg was. That's why I mentioned the Council. Same as Blackfyre. Nevertheless, it doesn't matter. It's just a name to identify them, not their claime to the IT.The difference is that when Damon was legitimized by his dad Aegon IV, he took the name of his sword and birthright and started his own house as Damon Blackfyre of house Blackfyre. Aerion was still Aerion Targaryen. His nickname was Brightflame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sertravisredbeard Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yes. Calling his children Brightflames would be like calling Dany's children Stormborns. Naming Dany's children Chainbreakers would be pretty catchy. Plus children with the last names Halfman, Blackfish, Dolorous, Spare Boot etc. would be all kinds of entertaining.
