  • Join us as we delve into one of the most chilling episodes of the Dance of the Dragons: the story of Blood and Cheese. This dark tale unfolds after Prince Aemond's ruthless pursuit of Lucerys and his dragon, ending tragically near Storm's End. The aftermath left Rhaenyra Targaryen shattered, but it ignited a fiery resolve in Prince Daemon Targaryen for vengeance. Mysaria, the White Worm, became the architect of this revenge, recruiting the menacing duo known as Blood and Cheese. With their knowledge of Maegor’s hidden passages, they executed a harrowing plot within the Red Keep. Queen Helaena, faced with an agonizing decision, named her youngest son Maelor to be spared, but in a shocking twist, Blood and Cheese took the life of her elder son, Jaehaerys, instead. This video explores the depth of this revenge plot and its impact on the Targaryen civil war. Discover the intricate details of this tragic chapter in Targaryen history, where personal vendettas fueled the fires of war.

      It's not hard to realize there is a very good chance Aemond fathered Helena's children and it would be easy to hide it. It could also be the reason he backs off stealing the throne from his brother who doesn't want it. Patience would eventually place his children there anyway.

      Yeah I’ve always thought it’s a little weird the ‘son for a son’ thing cause it wasn’t Aegon who killed Lucerys but I guess it just means a green son for the blacks son but it would be interesting if that actually is aemond’s son or if Daemon was the one who had the idea to make her pick and then kill the other one to be extra cruel or if he just ordered them to kill the heir and it happened to end up working the way it did because like killing the son is bad enough but to make her choose and then kill the other and have to live with the living one knowing you chose them to die and with their sister also watching the whole thing. Like it might literally have been less painful for them to kill all the children because to Helaena it kinda was the same thing because she refused to look at Maelor and I don’t know if she really wanted to be around her daughter either. She probably didn’t think she had any right to be a mother after that or maybe as soon as that happened she could already see how it would end for her children. Makes me wonder if Helaena killed herself the way she did because she knew that’s how Jaehaera would die or if it was the other way around. It’s crazy to me that out of all the people they could mess with they went after Helaena. They should’ve just freaking kidnapped the boys and used them to make aegon surrender. The one guy got away so he maybe could’ve smuggled the kid out. A kid as a hostage is way better than a dead kid. It actually could’ve helped end the war instead of making it a million times worse but daemon has never been great a deescalation of violence

    The truth is the dance of dragons was really Viserys' fault. By ignoring the precedent set by the great council and decreeing that Rhaneyra would inherit over Daemon, and later his sons, he basically ensured there would be a succession crisis. It doesnt matter that Rhaneyra would probably be a better ruler then the others, the realm could have endured a not great king, but by ignoring precedent he ensured the realm would divide into separate camps. Also the show is clearly written to present Rhaneyra as the more sympathetic of the claimants, whereas in Fire and Blood its made pretty clear that they both kind of suck and lead their realm to ruin over their petty squables.

      Rumors about them being bastards existed for years and bastards were considered dirty and malicious by everyone, and as Viserys once told Rhaenyra "the truth doesn't matter, only perseption", image of the boys was tainted anyway. So the idea of Blood&Cheese avenging a noble boy is just BS, people like them would kill their own family for a bag of coins, they were greedy and arrogant enough to agree to commit this crime and to think they could get away with it, heroism or nobleness have absolutely nothing to do with this

      But Helaena and her children didn’t do anything at all. They were innocent. If Rhaenyra and Daemon wanted someone dead, they should’ve sent Blood and Cheese on Aemond or even Aegon II.

    Most vile act?? I wouldn’t go that far. Yes, sad bc it involved children but there’s a few other moments that top this.

    It is nothing but the consequences of the greens' actions. Daemon could have all the kids be killed alongside Helaena, but he only took one son for his stepson. He is cruel if you hurt his family but he knows the limits. Helaena has her brothers (Aemond who killed Luke at the most sensitive time and Aegon who threw a feast to celebrate Luke's death) to blame. If you don't like the reaction, question the action.

    Halaena didnt deserve that at all. She even danced with jacerys in that last dinner together.
    They should have just targeted aemond only.

    The Greens knew that the Blacks were finna spin the block on the set. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    That is so smart. Let the mom choose which kid had to go and then kill the other one so the one who they let live grows up knowing your mom chose you to die

    It’s been so odd watching this and knowing what’s coming. I didn’t read the books first with GOT, but I did read as much as I could about HOD before it came out. It’s this weird sense of “I hope everyone ends up alright” and “I know they REALLY won’t” 😂
