ShadowCat Rivers Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 A lot of drama could have been avoided if she was available, so yes, in that sense. Otherwise, he's far too old for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balerion the kitten Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 We already have a younger, brown haired, version of rhaegar that dany will fall in love with :p Edit - Brown haired, not black. Silly me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Rhaegar was 23 years older, so no.How much older was Prince Daemon than Rhaenyra? They got on pretty well until she started to lose her shit at the end of the DoD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandonStark's bastard Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 As long as she can be a good incubator and have babies to fulfill Rhaegar's prophecy, it doesn't really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Commentator Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 The age difference is too big. It would have been a long wait for Rhaegar and the kingdom to have an heir to the throne. Rhaegar was already in his twenties when Dany was born. Rhaegar is not going to wait until he's in his twenties to marry. His duty was to give the realm an heir. But yeah, they would have gotten along. Dany would be deferential at first but will eventually wear the pants in the family. Rhaegar would likely go along with it since he's happiest composing and playing his music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf's Bane Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 They would have made a terrific couple if they can work through the age difference. But if they had gotten married then Dany would not have hatched the dragons. Everything happens for a reason and the hardships and sacrifices that Dany went through, the death of Rhaegar, all were given to bring the dragons back into the world. Rhaegar and Dany would have brought peace and prosperity to the realm but it would have done nothing to prepare against the Others. Rhaegar can read all of the history, prophecies, myths, and scrolls all he wants but knowledge can only take you so far without the means to fight the enemy. And Dany is well-travelled, she experienced many cultures, speaks many language. The education that she is getting now is invaluable and not something you can learn in King's Landing from a book. Had she stayed in King's Landing, she would have missed out on those harsh but valuable experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 How much older was Prince Daemon than Rhaenyra? They got on pretty well until she started to lose her shit at the end of the DoD. My point is Rhaegar wouldn't have hung around unmarried for 23 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
