Duality of Daemon, Callous, Sly and at the same time loved his brother Viserys and was loyal as fuck despite all the rebels he showed to him and loved him than all of his wives including Rhaenyra at the least since he's Viserys's daughter. This probably why he became very cold towards the greens since they were using Viserys for the throne. I'm yet to see a character in real life if not in real life, duality of like Daemon.
Aemond:" You were a fool to come alone" Daemon:" Were I not alone you would not have come" Aemond:" Yet here you are and here I am. You have lived too long uncle." Daemon:" On that much we agree"
In the end Daemon win the war, all his children lived, Aegon and Viserys became kings, Baela became lady of Driftmark and Rhaena is the last dragonrider (before Daenerys)
No one won the war. Aegon III was left a distraught depressed man who died young due to the paranoia of those before him actions. Rhaenyra and Daemon went down as a terrible person who the Targaryens look back on in shame. It’s to the point where they wouldn’t even give her name to any descendent that came after her.

One simply doesn't win countless one vs one and many battles by being reckless and careless.

Let's not talk about him again."

I’m assuming the show will shed more light on it though. We’ll see him sinking to the bottom of the lake or him climbing out of the water and walking away. Maybe Vhagar swallowed him up before dying 😂 also they found Aemond because he was chained to his saddle on Vhagar who sank to the bottom of the lake.
Daemon died, there’s no way he could survive that. He died the way he wanted, he planned it that way. He knew how he was going to kill Aemond since he didn’t chain himself to Caraxes, the plan went flawless and he knew he was gonna die at the end . If Daemon survived he would’ve died shortly after from the injuries he surely sustained. Also if he somehow survived the whole thing, there’s no way he would’ve abandoned Rhaenyra or their children . Once Aegon III ascended the throne, Daemon without doubt would’ve been by his son .

@@soul6138 you’re acting like daemon didn’t have to strike from aemond blind spot to take him out😭 also daemon wasn’t fighting a war this big at aemond’s age. Plus, aemond’s is no wife killer and abuser and he loves his family. Can’t say the same about the other one.
Daemon kill Aemond for the same reason Aemond wanted to kill Daemon. Aemomd believed that all of Rhaenrya’s support specially in the riverlands was due to the lord’s fear of the rouge prince retaliation. Even after he burn fields, castles and murders villages of people the main lords of the Riverland still remain loyal to Rhaenrya. He told Criston if he was to take Daemon out the riverlands will fold to the greens. However, Aemond ignore who Daemon was. Daemon after setting Nettle free and leaving Maidenpool so that Aemond wouldn’t torch the town too he went to Harrenhal where he waited for 13 DAYS for Aemond and Vhagar to show up. When Aemond arrived he was surprised to see Darmon alone in the castle. The 13 marks left in the god’s tree bleed each year and Arya saw this in the nobles when she thought the old gods have spoken her. Daemon knew he needed to get rid of Aemond as he was burning the Riverland and daemon needed the winterwolves and Vale knights to make their way south to fight for Rhaenrya’s claim against lord Boros Baratheon and tyland Lannister’s fleet. So he took to the sky with a much larger dragon. However caraxes have flew with Vhagar since he was a youngster and rode side by side with Prince Aemon and Prince Baelon. Then they flew once’s more with Laena and Daemon. Caraxes managed to ripped out Vhagar’s thoat. While Vhagar ripped a wing and crawl on his belly. Caraxes corpse was found on the shore. Vhagar and Aemond sink to the bottom of the god’s eye and their bodies were recover one year latter where they retreat dark sister from Aemond’s skull. Daemon’s body was never found. Which allows his ending to be open as many saw Nettles flying in the caves of the vale before she disappear. Aemond sink cause he was chain to Vhagar, as Daemon wasn’t chain to caraxes.
I come back to this whenever I get sad about Luke. But then I think about Daemon and I get sad too 😢 Aemond only wish he could have reached the pinnacle of bad a***** as Daemon
the most anticipated clash and I guess it could occur in the finale of season 2 or more likely in the finale of 3 (why don't you remember Martin said it would take 4 seasons to cover the whole dance story). And I really hope that the writers don't make Daemon survive because it would only be for the plot armor (yes I know his body has never been reworked but I strongly doubt that his body is left much since he fell from 700m in height while two dragons swooped down on him and Aemond's body was found only because it was still tied to Vaghar's saddle with chains that of Daemon was not and I remember that the eye of the gods is the largest lake in all of Westeros and at that time the divers were not so it is obvious that his body was never found) and would go against their famous exchange where it was clear that Daemon wanted to commit suicide to kill Aemond and Vaghar.
One thing I love is that Arya, in the books, was known to have LOVED the legendary sword Dark Sister, and she told the Hound once “one day, I’m going to put a sword thru your eye and out the back of your head…”. I think it was something she always wanted to do to someone ever since she read about Daemon killing Aemond that way with the sword of her dreams. I always wished they would have somehow found a way to make Arya somehow find Dark Sister and make it her own. She deserved it.
@@janellejulianajoy I could see that, although Daemon probably sees Aemond as himself but worse, where as he sees Aegon as everything Viserys wasn’t, which would piss Daemon off, cause he would see it as Aegon pretty much shitting on his brother's legacy, and if theres one thing we know about Daemon, its that the man loved his brother
As much as I can't wait to see this scene be adapted in HOTD, I'm worried about how they'll pull it off. It could look amazing or it could look incredibly ridiculous.
Same!! This is the scene I’ve been dreading and anticipating the most. If they do it right it will be epic! I was a little worried by some of the dragon scenes in the first season because a lot of them weren’t great. Hopefully that’s just because they don’t have that big of a budget. The other scene is the second battle at Tumbleton with the three dragons fighting, that one will be hard to pull of also.
people should watch more foreign movies, asian movie to be exact. There's a trope that it doesn't matter if you died in the end, the goal is to kill. Daemon win even he have to died too. it's not a hard concept to understand smh. The one who get to act is the winner not the other. Vhagar fighting Caraxes, but Aemond didn't fight Daemon. He just sit there waiting for his fate. Daemon's last act is the point of this fight. To die when you kill is heroic.
FINALLY...The people who say "😭😭😭No OnE wOn DAeMoN aLsO dIeD" are the same people who have never been in a 1v1 fight in their life...If in this universe Aemond was to be asked in afterlife who won it... Even he would say Daemon bested him...
So Japanese kamakzi pilots were “winning” when they blew themselves and there airplanes into enemy ships? It was a loose loose situation for Daemon because Vhagar is stronger than Caraxes as we saw in the fight were Caraxes only closed his Jaw on Vhagar thick neck, meanwhile Vhagar ripped Caraxes wing and opend his belly with her claws it was a one sided match. But when they fell the force of the crash killed Vhagar as she was twice as big and heavier unlike Carxes who was lighter thus he died from his wounds. For Daemon it was wither flee, fight, or kamakzi himself into Aemond and he done the latter doing the maximum damage. In the end both sides lost an important warrior. Cole died because Aemond couldn’t help him and Rhenera died because no one was there to protect her after all of her close allies died. You could say it was a tactical defeat but a strategic win because letting Aemond roam and fight more would have sealed the war towards the greens side.
@@dutch148 You don't understand...Vhagar wasn't going to be DEFEATED in any other way other than Kamikaze...Daemon knew Vermithor and Silverwing were now on the Green's side so he HAD TO TAKE VHAGAR OUT... Otherwise Black's were never going to win... Going to the fight ALMOST EVERYONE INCLUDING AEMOND would have expected him to win and come out alive...But the Brilliant Daemon took him out using a Kamikaze (and yes Kamikaze's were a win for Japan...They lost a guy...a jet but they took out enemy battleships and more men)...Daemon didn't know that the small folk would storm the dragonpit and Rhaenyra would be too weak to save the dragons...If he had known something like that would happen in future he wouldn't have fought Aemond... In short...Daemon died while taking out Vhagar(the Green's biggest asset)...He believed the Blacks still had a BIGGER ARMY(The Lads had defeated the Green army and were about to be joined by Northmen) and more dragons(though young)
@@naveensridharan7593 wtf?😂😂😂This isn't suicide...This is TAKING ONE FOR THE TEAM...This is not cowardice...This is legendary...If you are a soldier in a war and if YOUR DEATH would give advantages to your side then you don't die as a coward...You die as a legend...
That's what I was thinking. Like how do they know Aemond looked up in terror as Daemon leaped from his dragon onto Vhagar. However they do know for sure that Daemon drove dark sister into Aemond's remaining eye because years later Vhagar's remains wash up ashore and Aemond's skeletal remains was still saddled to it with dark sister still in his skull.
I have been excited for House of The Dragon ever since there was a rumor it was a possibility because of this scene. The main threats from both sides of the war go head to head, all the tension comes to a climax. Daemon shows us what a badass he is, pulling something literally only he would have the guts to do. Daemon struck the killing blow to the other rider, but everyone involved dies when they hit the water. Fire and Blood was awesome, but we couldn’t really get the full story of The Dance because it’s an in-universe history book written by a Maester hundreds of years after it happened with only a few very biased sources to go off of. The characters sound cool, but now with the show we get to see them in their full glory, unfragmented by time and bias. I’m so freaking excited for the later seasons!!
If I could choose a dragon for myself from the whole songs of ice and fire books caraxes would be my choice such a powerful dragon despite his able to beat a dragon more than twice his size even though he dead after coming out of sea.
I imagined Daemon died from hitting the lake so hard it would basically be like falling from the Empire State Building and then his body crushed underneath the dragons though coraxes did crawl out of the lake and died of his injuries on the shore
@@TwistedRevan Breaks the impact... to what end? Even if he survived the fall you think he would just swim to shore fine and dandy?... He'd drown mate because his body would be smashed to pieces... He's not surviving that fall...

I think Deamon thought Aemond has Dragon blood just like him and so fire couldn't kill him. That's why instead of saying Dracarys and trying to kill him with fire he thought to put a sword in his eye.
They were really high up. The water feels like hitting concrete from that height. The only way he would’ve survived was if it was Minecraft unfortunately it’s Westeros nobody’s safe 😂😂
The 3 worst rulers. Aemond and Daemon are definitely worse than Rhaenyra by a good margin though so I'm mainly bashing them. People love them because they are "The most Targaryen" but that's the problem. Those 3 characters represent everything wrong with House Targaryen. They are all in the mad category just like all the other hyper elitist Targaryens who think their Valyrian blood makes them so special. They are not in the likes of Aegon I, Jaehaerys I, Viserys II, and Daeron II who all understood that assimilating with the realm they rule over and respecting it's customs is the most wise way to secure power and be a good king.
Daemon is the only man crazy enough to leap off the back of a dragon
Mid-flight, onto the back of another dragon that's flying, to kill the rider of that dragon. Yep, absolute madlad.

How is that a victory if he had to sacrifice himself to kill Aemond?
Desperate suicide move 🤣🤣
@@pedrofernandes2466 How is it not? you are dickriding aemond so hard you cant even see daemon had won 😂
Daemon took the revenge for his grandnephew - son
Stepson too 😂😂
That kid is idiot
Sunfyre was living for her/his name
One of the saddest parts in the dance of the dragons
Daemon was a different breed. Like a Jon wick of those times
The Achilles of Westeros
This Aemond facial expression when Daemon brought the Dark Sister over him. Pirate boy shitting his pants so hard🤣
In The show “pirate boy” is 10x cooler
He was better than daemon even at 20 years old...old man had to die to take him out😭
@@tyunning7147 aemond hightower, while riding the biggest dragon in westeros, allowed his king and his dragon to be crippled in a 2 v 1 match where they had the advantage, got outsmarted into leaving king’s landing undefended, and then got killed by a man pushing 50 whilst he was at his prime 😭
@@soul6138 you’re acting like daemon didn’t have to strike from aemond blind spot to take him out😭 also daemon wasn’t fighting a war this big at aemond’s age. Plus, aemond’s is no wife killer and abuser and he loves his family. Can’t say the same about the other one.
@@soul6138 Aemond *Targaryen* had more Targaryen blood than all of Rhaenyra's children combined. Also he was no wife killer
I can’t WAIT to see this happen in the show!!
Deamond knew he had no other way to kill aemond.
Daemon kill Aemond for the same reason Aemond wanted to kill Daemon. Aemomd believed that all of Rhaenrya’s support specially in the riverlands was due to the lord’s fear of the rouge prince retaliation. Even after he burn fields, castles and murders villages of people the main lords of the Riverland still remain loyal to Rhaenrya. He told Criston if he was to take Daemon out the riverlands will fold to the greens. However, Aemond ignore who Daemon was.
Daemon after setting Nettle free and leaving Maidenpool so that Aemond wouldn’t torch the town too he went to Harrenhal where he waited for 13 DAYS for Aemond and Vhagar to show up. When Aemond arrived he was surprised to see Darmon alone in the castle. The 13 marks left in the god’s tree bleed each year and Arya saw this in the nobles when she thought the old gods have spoken her.
Daemon knew he needed to get rid of Aemond as he was burning the Riverland and daemon needed the winterwolves and Vale knights to make their way south to fight for Rhaenrya’s claim against lord Boros Baratheon and tyland Lannister’s fleet. So he took to the sky with a much larger dragon.
However caraxes have flew with Vhagar since he was a youngster and rode side by side with Prince Aemon and Prince Baelon. Then they flew once’s more with Laena and Daemon.
Caraxes managed to ripped out Vhagar’s thoat.
While Vhagar ripped a wing and crawl on his belly.
Caraxes corpse was found on the shore. Vhagar and Aemond sink to the bottom of the god’s eye and their bodies were recover one year latter where they retreat dark sister from Aemond’s skull.
Daemon’s body was never found. Which allows his ending to be open as many saw Nettles flying in the caves of the vale before she disappear. Aemond sink cause he was chain to Vhagar, as Daemon wasn’t chain to caraxes.
@@paulabarra5431
Bro he died.
A wise man once said: "killing you was the point, living through it was just a luxury"
I come back to this whenever I get sad about Luke. But then I think about Daemon and I get sad too 😢 Aemond only wish he could have reached the pinnacle of bad a***** as Daemon
Don't feel sad for a bastard
@@SMDH__ time will tell . Wanna bet ? 🤣🤣
🔥"Real Dragon never loose the control"
the most anticipated clash and I guess it could occur in the finale of season 2 or more likely in the finale of 3 (why don't you remember Martin said it would take 4 seasons to cover the whole dance story).
And I really hope that the writers don't make Daemon survive because it would only be for the plot armor (yes I know his body has never been reworked but I strongly doubt that his body is left much since he fell from 700m in height while two dragons swooped down on him and Aemond's body was found only because it was still tied to Vaghar's saddle with chains that of Daemon was not and I remember that the eye of the gods is the largest lake in all of Westeros and at that time the divers were not so it is obvious that his body was never found) and would go against their famous exchange where it was clear that Daemon wanted to commit suicide to kill Aemond and Vaghar.
One thing I love is that Arya, in the books, was known to have LOVED the legendary sword Dark Sister, and she told the Hound once “one day, I’m going to put a sword thru your eye and out the back of your head…”. I think it was something she always wanted to do to someone ever since she read about Daemon killing Aemond that way with the sword of her dreams. I always wished they would have somehow found a way to make Arya somehow find Dark Sister and make it her own. She deserved it.
I bet Daemon was pissed that he couldn't kill Aegon so he went for the next best thing
I think he hated Aemond more.
@@janellejulianajoy I could see that, although Daemon probably sees Aemond as himself but worse, where as he sees Aegon as everything Viserys wasn’t, which would piss Daemon off, cause he would see it as Aegon pretty much shitting on his brother's legacy, and if theres one thing we know about Daemon, its that the man loved his brother
As much as I can't wait to see this scene be adapted in HOTD, I'm worried about how they'll pull it off. It could look amazing or it could look incredibly ridiculous.
Same!! This is the scene I’ve been dreading and anticipating the most. If they do it right it will be epic! I was a little worried by some of the dragon scenes in the first season because a lot of them weren’t great. Hopefully that’s just because they don’t have that big of a budget. The other scene is the second battle at Tumbleton with the three dragons fighting, that one will be hard to pull of also.
Ellie: Joel, your tales very scares me
Cannot wait for this scene to be adapted
Aemond: “You’re about to fuck around and find out.”
Daemon: “Bet.”
people should watch more foreign movies, asian movie to be exact. There's a trope that it doesn't matter if you died in the end, the goal is to kill. Daemon win even he have to died too. it's not a hard concept to understand smh. The one who get to act is the winner not the other. Vhagar fighting Caraxes, but Aemond didn't fight Daemon. He just sit there waiting for his fate. Daemon's last act is the point of this fight. To die when you kill is heroic.
FINALLY...The people who say "😭😭😭No OnE wOn DAeMoN aLsO dIeD" are the same people who have never been in a 1v1 fight in their life...If in this universe Aemond was to be asked in afterlife who won it... Even he would say Daemon bested him...
So Japanese kamakzi pilots were “winning” when they blew themselves and there airplanes into enemy ships? It was a loose loose situation for Daemon because Vhagar is stronger than Caraxes as we saw in the fight were Caraxes only closed his Jaw on Vhagar thick neck, meanwhile Vhagar ripped Caraxes wing and opend his belly with her claws it was a one sided match. But when they fell the force of the crash killed Vhagar as she was twice as big and heavier unlike Carxes who was lighter thus he died from his wounds. For Daemon it was wither flee, fight, or kamakzi himself into Aemond and he done the latter doing the maximum damage. In the end both sides lost an important warrior. Cole died because Aemond couldn’t help him and Rhenera died because no one was there to protect her after all of her close allies died. You could say it was a tactical defeat but a strategic win because letting Aemond roam and fight more would have sealed the war towards the greens side.
@@dutch148 You don't understand...Vhagar wasn't going to be DEFEATED in any other way other than Kamikaze...Daemon knew Vermithor and Silverwing were now on the Green's side so he HAD TO TAKE VHAGAR OUT... Otherwise Black's were never going to win... Going to the fight ALMOST EVERYONE INCLUDING AEMOND would have expected him to win and come out alive...But the Brilliant Daemon took him out using a Kamikaze (and yes Kamikaze's were a win for Japan...They lost a guy...a jet but they took out enemy battleships and more men)...Daemon didn't know that the small folk would storm the dragonpit and Rhaenyra would be too weak to save the dragons...If he had known something like that would happen in future he wouldn't have fought Aemond...
In short...Daemon died while taking out Vhagar(the Green's biggest asset)...He believed the Blacks still had a BIGGER ARMY(The Lads had defeated the Green army and were about to be joined by Northmen) and more dragons(though young)
@@buzzkill36 lol, you talk as if suicide is the best way to win (in fight and in life), feel pity for your thoughts and your life.
@@naveensridharan7593 wtf?😂😂😂This isn't suicide...This is TAKING ONE FOR THE TEAM...This is not cowardice...This is legendary...If you are a soldier in a war and if YOUR DEATH would give advantages to your side then you don't die as a coward...You die as a legend...
I hope that daemon is alive. ✌✌✌
Aemond: I have visenya's dragon.
Daemon: I have her sword kid.
I wanna know how tf they would know that when there’s no cameras back then 😂
That's what I was thinking. Like how do they know Aemond looked up in terror as Daemon leaped from his dragon onto Vhagar. However they do know for sure that Daemon drove dark sister into Aemond's remaining eye because years later Vhagar's remains wash up ashore and Aemond's skeletal remains was still saddled to it with dark sister still in his skull.
they found Dark Sister in his one remaining eye. Dragon fight over the God sky. one plus one makes two.
They recovered aemond from the lake like that
Alys Rivers also witnessed the fight firsthand
People dare call Daemona hero when he sacrificed his own magnificent dragon to kill the last living memory of Aegons conquest😢
Tf he should do then
Caraxes was loyal to him he didn't sacrifice his dragon
@@sussyballs424 Negotiate with him
Aemond was using that dragon to burn down much of the kingdom
@@onnset8237it doesn't matter, the riverland people respawned in some months😂😂
Poor Aemond Targaryen 😢😢
I have been excited for House of The Dragon ever since there was a rumor it was a possibility because of this scene. The main threats from both sides of the war go head to head, all the tension comes to a climax. Daemon shows us what a badass he is, pulling something literally only he would have the guts to do. Daemon struck the killing blow to the other rider, but everyone involved dies when they hit the water. Fire and Blood was awesome, but we couldn’t really get the full story of The Dance because it’s an in-universe history book written by a Maester hundreds of years after it happened with only a few very biased sources to go off of. The characters sound cool, but now with the show we get to see them in their full glory, unfragmented by time and bias. I’m so freaking excited for the later seasons!!
I can’t wait to see this scene in the show, that shit goes hard
An end like that is really poetic for Aemond
can’t wait to see the live action version when it finally comes to it 🔥🔥🔥
I'm.not ready for this
If I could choose a dragon for myself from the whole songs of ice and fire books caraxes would be my choice such a powerful dragon despite his able to beat a dragon more than twice his size even though he dead after coming out of sea.
I'm so looking forward to seeing this in House of the Dragon! I really hope they do it just.
I want Daemon Targaren to have a connection to the faceless men in some way it would be tight 😌
I can’t wait to see this happen in the show
I imagined Daemon died from hitting the lake so hard it would basically be like falling from the Empire State Building and then his body crushed underneath the dragons though coraxes did crawl out of the lake and died of his injuries on the shore
Yeah but just like in real life if the dragons hit the water first it breaks the impact and is possible someone could live 😳
@@TwistedRevan possible yes but in this case he landed and fell on the dragons still would most likely have killed him.
@@TwistedRevan
Breaks the impact... to what end? Even if he survived the fall you think he would just swim to shore fine and dandy?... He'd drown mate because his body would be smashed to pieces... He's not surviving that fall...
@@Liverpool-Thedirtyredteam have you not ever seen swimmers that jump for heights? They drop an object right before they jump so it breaks the water. But this is also a show with dragons so anything can happen 😂😂
No way maesters know this much details on what happened in skies.
i think they assumed what happened by looking at aemond's corpse and there's some people watched the two prince fall so they might saw daemon jumping from his dragon
I hate that aemond😢 he’s my favorite nd house of the dragon
and Daemon’s body was never recovered.. he truly is god's (grrm) favourite🤭
I am gonna miss daemon. He holds a special place in my heart
The most famous duel in the series
Thanks for the tumbnail
So Daemon was only 49 and Aemond was 20? Damn Y’all really be dying young in GoT
Nobody’s safe in Westeros 🫣
Damn .. Daemon looks 75! 😂😂😂😂
He has been through it 😂😂
Pedro! There could've been NOBODY better to describe & play THE RED VIPER, Prince, of Dorne, Oberyn, brother of Elia Martell.
The baddest S.O.B. since Dæmon, Æmond, The Man Himself Ser Arthur Dayne & thusly the man known as Jon, Ægon Targaryen, Snow.

Who was watching this from the sky to describe exactly what happened? ..
Exactly.
It was seen by Alys Rivers, also they found Aemonds corpse still saddled to Vhagar years later with dark sister still lodged in his skull .
49 huh, man my guy looks weathered here.
I think Deamon thought Aemond has Dragon blood just like him and so fire couldn't kill him.
That's why instead of saying Dracarys and trying to kill him with fire he thought to put a sword in his eye.
None of the Targaryens are fireproof except Daenerys.
Aymond Targaryen dies by Visenya's sword, riding a dragon, I didn't know
this episode will be a mix of emotions sad.satisfaction,happy,then again sad for the death of two great dragons
Daemon never died tho lol
You cant survive that fall every organ will be crushed by the impact
The show will definitely make raenyra and daemon survive somehow.
@@tyler-hp7oq Not Rhaenyra she’ll be dragon food
This is gonna look so cool when it happens 😮
Daemon definitely survived. He fell into the ocean
They were really high up. The water feels like hitting concrete from that height. The only way he would’ve survived was if it was Minecraft unfortunately it’s Westeros nobody’s safe 😂😂
Daemon🖤🖤
There were only 3 names who could be best ruler rhaenyra daemon and aemond
The 3 worst rulers. Aemond and Daemon are definitely worse than Rhaenyra by a good margin though so I'm mainly bashing them. People love them because they are "The most Targaryen" but that's the problem. Those 3 characters represent everything wrong with House Targaryen. They are all in the mad category just like all the other hyper elitist Targaryens who think their Valyrian blood makes them so special. They are not in the likes of Aegon I, Jaehaerys I, Viserys II, and Daeron II who all understood that assimilating with the realm they rule over and respecting it's customs is the most wise way to secure power and be a good king.
