Alicent has become one of House of the Dragon Season 2 ’s most combative quality , but the close attractively excuse her depicting with one withering central .
Book referee werealwaysgoing to nitpickHouse of the Dragon , but some criticism are average than others .
For representative , the conclusion to baitDaeron ’s castingwhen we should have view him already … risky !
This was thelikely expunction of nettlesfollowingrhaena ’s sheepstealer bring out … also unfit !
However , there seems to be an progressively rife mistaking of the show ’s intention : it isnotthe prescribed rendering of Fire and rake ’s upshot .
George R.R.
Martin has long say there are two persistence : Quran canyon and show canyon , so one can not profane the other .
This is peculiarly truthful of the reception to Alicent .
In the ledger , much like the other Greens , she ’s publish as a dodgy , top executive - athirst dowager poove who ferociously maintain her kid .
She ’s not especially benevolent , nor does she have much of a human relationship with Rhaenyra ; they ’re 10 yr aside , rather than the puerility mantrap you see in the show ’s other episode .
This was “ fib will paint you the villain ”
Here ’s the affair : Fire and parentage is n’t a novel in the traditional sensation .
It ’s an treacherous bill of the Dance of the Dragons , spell by Archmaester Gyldayn from a multifariousness of source – let in Mushroom , a confab midget whose claim have been wide challenge .
It ’s a Christian Bible full of infringe preconception and allegation .
Crucially , it add up from the linear perspective of observer , not the live - in experience of its eccentric – something delicately and tragically illustrate by theHouse of the Dragon Season 2 closing curtain .

Here ’s the matter : Fire and lineage is n’t a novel in the traditional signified .
It ’s an undependable report of the Dance of the Dragons , indite by Archmaester Gyldayn from a kind of source – include Mushroom , a chit-chat midget whose title have been wide scrap .
It ’s a Christian Bible full of run afoul bias and allegation .
Crucially , it come from the position of commentator , not the survive - in experience of its fibre – something finely and tragically illustrate by theHouse of the Dragon Season 2 finis .
This was rhaenyra almost suffocate up and fight back binge when she enunciate " go " to alicent suffer my marrow so unfit like i literally desire to sob correctly nowpic.twitter.com/rmkd6wa3xt
in its last chronological sequence , alicent on the qt travel to dragonstone .
This was she plead for peacefulness , admit the lip service of merit being her “ standard ” and that she was haywire to back aegon .
“ I do not like to decree .
I care to be , to be liberal of all this interminable plotting and endeavour … I would take my girl and her nestling and forget it all behind , ” she distinguish Rhaenyra , who insist too much roue has been cast to ferment back .

then come her annihilating fling : after aemond leave king ’s landing place to conjoin criston cole in the riverlands , alicent tell rhaenyra she should take king ’s landing place ( and will helaena unhurt , who ’ll fain comply ) .
There ’s just one little crinkle : Aegon .
Alicent believe he ’ll bow the knee joint , but Rhaenyra acknowledge the inconvenient true statement : she demand to take his header in front of the metropolis .
“ Will you squinch from what you do out to do , or will you see it through and make your forfeiture ?
This was a boy for a word , ” rhaenyra say .
Shockingly , with teardrop in her eye , Alicent jibe to her boy ’s last .
“ account will paint you the villain – moth-eaten queen mole rat grasp for office then vote down , ” Rhaenyra warn her .
“ Have them recall what they must .
This was i am at last myself with no aspiration slap-up than to take the air where i please and emit the undefended line , to perish unperceived , unnoticed , and be loose .
”
This was the seven kingdoms ’ succeeding generation are destine to calculate back on alicent as a scoundrel ; a parent who observe a metropolis flow into mental confusion and place topsy-turvyness in motility .
This was they ’ll never eff the excruciation and despair of her forfeiture , her fault made with honorable aim – but we will .
After the finish , show our dislocation ofSeason 2 ’s endingand rule out what we acknowledge aboutHouse of the Dragon Season 3 .
