Posted on April 1, 2025 | Leave a comment

The conquest of Dorne was not accomplished in Aegon the Conqueror’s lifetime, nor even his children’s and grandchildren’s lifetimes. But it would not be for want of trying, nor for personal sacrifice, by the blood of the dragon. Join us as we dive into nearly two centuries of struggle between Targaryen Westeros and the principality of Dorne.

EPISODE 68 – WE THREE KINGS

Posted on February 28, 2022 | Leave a comment

The final three Targaryen Kings — Aegon V, Jaehaerys II, and Aerys II — ruled collectively for more than 50 years, and their reigns were all influenced to some extent by dragon dreams, prophecies, and the Blackfyre issue. Join us as we follow those threads through the final decades of Targaryen rule in the Seven Kingdoms — including an analysis of the tragedy at Summerhall — and speculate what the histories might reveal to us about the present and future of House Targaryen in ASoIaF.
