Volantis Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Are they following Dornish custom? (His mother was Dornish) Or are they waiting for him to conquer the Iron Throne before calling him King? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ab aeterno Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Yeah, I assume they're waiting until they take the capital. This way they can talk about him as the heir who is coming to be crowned rather than just another claimant as king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Crow Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 He is as they say a prince of the blood, but only a coronation can make hima king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Varys Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 There may be plenty of reasons for that. First the obvious fact that they kept Aegon's true identity a secret for most of his life. Calling him 'King' in private would have made this whole thing more difficult. Viserys styled himself Viserys III, but people in Westeros - even Targaryen loyalists - only referred to him as Prince Viserys. To claim the title and position of King you have to declare yourself openly, and Aegon still has to do this. Yes, Young Griff is gone, he is Prince Aegon now, but he will only be called King Aegon VI Targaryen once he washes his hair, dons his armor, and openly declares to the whole Realm who he is.I guess this going to happen in the very beginning of TWoW after the Golden Company has taken Storm's End.It will be interesting to see how Aegon's cause is going to be presented in the appendix of TWoW. He has to be among the sections of the various, but will he be called 'The Prince at Storm's End' or the 'The King at Storm's End'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aegon will finally fly the dragon banner of House Targaryen and begin styling himself as King Aegon VI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickdt Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I hope aegon's for real, because I like him and I would like to see him win not dany I hope she dies I hope not. Then all the Dany Development and Story was for nothing. So its likely Aegon is fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Meliora Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I assume it's because he hasn't been anointed and crowned yet. When/if that happens, then he'd become King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodd Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Viserys styled himself Viserys III, but people in Westeros - even Targaryen loyalists - only referred to him as Prince Viserys. He did that with reason, as his mother crowned him with all the needed ceremony on Dragonstone, before Dany was born. I'm sure if (f)Aegon will get to King's Landing (most likely he will) we will see a coronation. I wonder what the High Sparrow will have to say to it, as it will devalue the ceremony if it's not him who puts the crown on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewolfStark Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 He is as they say a prince of the blood, but only a coronation can make hima king. This, pretty much. IRL, a King was only a King if they'd been crowned and blessed with oils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
