only if we lose

the fact that fifty year old Jaeherys Targaryen put his life on the line to fight a battle against a young man his daughter was fucking. fifty is not that old but against a strong young man in his prime. Jesus. could've gone differently. and obviously he won but to make such a production out of that. to fight and kill a man in front of an audience and tell the world 'This is what happens when you take what's mine. I will stake my fucking life on it. I own my daughter's virginity and I sell it to the highest bidder and if you have a problem with that you can talk to my sword arm or my 900 ton dragon'. I'd imagine the message was crystal clear. not saying there aren't idiots in westeros who wouldn't risk the wrath of violent misogynist king jaeherys for a night in bed with a targaryen princess. but if there was a person out there who risked it for gael, why wasn't he punished? especially since she became pregnant, and the loss of that pregnancy killed her. king jaeherys was older, but he had seven knights in his kingsguard who I'm sure would've swung on his behalf. and thats IF he wasn’t psychotic enough for a Beesbury repeat performance. a singer would've known the entire story of gael’s older sister in iambic pentameter. how would he have gotten away with impregnating her and stealing into the night, when a couple alleged kisses sparked the second biggest bitchfit in westerosi history from king j? why was her pregnancy, the loss of that pregnancy, and her suicide kept a secret? what was the reason? and if the father came from her own house, what was preventing a hasty shotgun wedding? am i supposed to believe jaeherys so easily gave up his ownership of his daughter's virtue when the last time this happened, he held his child down, chopped up her boyfriend, and chased her from the country?
