oh hey

Rhaenyra starts the season in a position of great strategic military power, but with a lot of personal doubt about her tenure and about the nature of her potential leadership, and she ends it having had her military political positioning massively compromised, but resolute in her right to rule. — Emma D'Arcy via the Wrap

"And now, after Aegon and his dragon have been resurrected, there could be no clearer sign of whom the gods have chosen to rule, princess." HOUSE OF THE DRAGON — 3.08 "The Treasons at Tumbleton"

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON 3.08: The Treasons at Tumbleton

The gods summoned my ancestor, Aegon the Conqueror to the Seven Kingdoms to unite a fractured realm beneath one banner of black and red. They named him Protector of the World of Men. His duty, to shield it from an ancient and sinister darkness that looms in the far North beyond the Wall, beyond the lands of winter. And only the might of dragons can stand against it. The Conqueror passed this sacred charge to his chosen descendants, to the Old King, Jaehaerys, then to my father, then to me. The Hightower line cannot fulfill this prophecy. If your world is to survive I must light the way. Because I am the Shield of the People. I am Rhaenyra the Chosen. I am the Prince That Was Promised.

You are more than this, Daemon. The man I married was more than this.
