00:00All hail King Aegon!
00:03We Rhaenyra Targaryen, protector of the realm.
00:06At the beginning of the season, Rhaenyra orders the death of Prince Daenerys,
00:10making her a kinslayer.
00:13It's all Rhaenyra's fault.
00:15To war, then.
00:16Rhaenyra is still reeling from the loss of her son
00:18and would not inflict that pain on another parent.
00:21I was clear in my instructions.
00:23Aemond, the brother of Aegon the Usurper.
00:25Help!
00:28In a secret meeting, Alicent and Rhaenyra interpret Viserys' dying wishes very differently.
00:34The prince that was promised Aegon's dream.
00:37Rhaenyra cannot countenance the idea that her father changed his mind about the succession.
00:43The throne is definitely hers.
00:46Obviously, the throne belongs to Aegon.
00:48Everyone can agree on that.
00:50He made me king.
00:52Is that what you think?
00:55At the Battle of Rook's Rest, the fight reaches new heights.
01:00Aegon rides some fire into war.
01:02Who would have known that his biggest enemy was his own brother?
01:05Just get out of here!
01:06Dirty move, if you ask me.
01:08No!
01:09But we did win the battle.
01:11I'm not entirely certain we can declare this a victory.
01:15In an epic dragon-on-dragon battle, Rhaenys and Maelyse both perish.
01:21Good riddance.
01:22After a crushing defeat, Rhaenyra seeks new dragon riders.
01:27And after some very bloody tryouts...
01:32Gains three new dragon riders.
01:36That's impossible.
01:38Didn't even know you could do that.
01:41But don't forget, we still have Vega.
01:45At the end of season two, Aegon leaves King's Landing with Larys Strong.
01:50You want to take me to Essos to live with the goat fuckers?
01:54Not exactly who I'd pick for a road trip.
01:58You now have a great advantage.
02:01You must strike quickly.
02:02By the end of the season, Rhaenyra is supported by House Velaryon, the Winter Wolves, the Riverlords, the Freys, and
02:11three new dragon riders.
02:13Team Black is primed for victory.
02:15We will make an alliance with the Triarchy.
02:18I've had enough of this cursed blockade.
02:21House Hightower, the Lannisters, Vhagar, the Triarchy.
02:26To the gullet on the morrow!
02:28And let the sea snake rue the day we meet again.
02:34Team Green is set up for success.
02:36In secret, Alicent visits Rhaenyra at Dragonstone and offers the throne and Aegon's life.
02:42Will you make your sacrifice?
02:44A son for a son.
02:47But can Rhaenyra trust her old friend?
02:50Only time will tell.
