To add insult to injury, there’s also the propaganda side of things.
So what exactly is the problem there?
Well, Daemon (Matt Smith).

Still,Daemon has a big role to play in all of this.
We get it, he wants to be the real king, not the king consort.
Surely, their boss wouldn’t notice, right?
The reign of House Targaryen begins with this prequel to the popular HBO seriesGame of Thrones.Based on George R.R. Martin’sFire & Blood,House of the Dragonis set nearly 200 years beforeGame of Thrones, telling the story of the Targaryen civil war with King Viserys.
Rhaenyra is rightfully enraged by her son’s demise, and she demands Aemond’s head.
Rook’s Rest leaves both sides reeling from major losses as ambitions are revealed.
But, hey, it’s just one mistake, right?
Again, there was miscommunication involved.
InEpisode 5, “Regent”, Daemon tries to talk the Brackens into submission but fails miserably.
The kingconsortis yet again shaken that his plan has backfired, but, seriously,what did he expect?
But let’s keep on the sunny side.
Let’s posit that Rhaenyra will learn of the terror her husband has wreaked upon the Riverlands.
What should she do then?
No,the only correct course of action for Rhaenyra is to fire Daemon the Targaryen way.
Or maybe we should say theAemond way.
He could’ve killed Aegon in the process, but that really doesn’t seem to bother him.
