Maybe Rhaenyra is considering Alicent proposal (doubting because of the prophecy but considering it) and then she hears about the Triarchy fleet closing in and taking Vyseris. Then she feels set up and breaks relations with Alicent for good. The ending would be enemies closing on all sides for the Blacks, with the Lannister armies entering the Riverlands, the Hightowers beginning to movilice and the Triarchy fleet closing in

How would you feel if Cregans army joins with the lads army? It would give him something to do before he arrives in KL to tie things up. Maybe he gets wounded in the battle of the Kingsroad and thats why he arrives later

Call me a summer child, but you know what gives me hope? The play. If its set in the Harrenhall tourney, it should involve things that would spoil Winds of Winter events. If he is aiming for a 2024 release....

Dothraki doesnt need to take castles. IF they manage to cross the sea, they would be a crazy good force to harass the whole kingdom. They dont need to fight a well equiped westerosi army, they are faster and more manouvrable. They need to choose their battles, harass the countryside, raid villages and small groups and caravans or use scorched earth tactics if it comes to that. A big khalassar like drogo´s invading would be a nightmare for the kingdom

Maekar= Stannis?

The throne only hurts bad rulers

The other thing about changing the andal styled succesion that was reaffirmed during the council is the repercussion and inestability it may have on the whole realm. Its not only the royal family thats having this discussion, every mayor and minor lord in the realm might see their fief troubled if theres no clear succesion rules

Not sure if you guys will find this info interesting or new but here it goes: Penguin House has adquired the rights to publish the asoaif saga on spain and the rest of the spanish speaking world. Why is this relevant? Well, the books were in a kind of publishing limbo as the previous publisher lost the right and word was that no other publisher would make the investment unless they get assured that the next book is nearby. Well, now Penguin House announced that all 5 books will be relased all at once this year (june 22), also explicitly talking about releasing the next book in the saga. It might be nothing, but it might be a sign that the publishing date is coming nearer

Aegon conquest could work as a movie, and the series could be Dorne / Aenys / Maegor

Those three are basically the same book tho

She did that when she told Cersei about Ned planing to cancel her betrothal to Joffrey

Great post! i think you have too much action on season 2 tho.
