No Fire and Blood character had a POV chapter, but HBO’s Rhaenyra just did. Though she proclaims victory and aims for a brighter future, Rhaenyra is overwhelmed by problems of the moment and haunted by ghosts of the past. There’s an ominous soundtrack and a familiar theme presented as a double edged sword… Like Maester Aemon told Jon Snow and his brother Egg, to become a man you must kill the boy. It’s a metaphor for growing into a ruler, but for Rhaenyra it is also quite literal… and the boy is Alicent’s child. Until she discovers simultaneously that he’s not Daeron, and the war is not over.
