My interpretation of The summer king Bran “the broken” as ancient weirwood king. Painting inspired by hours of watching David Lightbringer . The weirwood throne grew arround meleted remains of the iron throne which is still burning with remains of dragon fire. The Others were reunited with their tree homes Inside the weirwood and greenseer sits on the throne as the face of the tree. Thus the throne is a vortex of all three sources of magic.
"She had a small black kitten she called Balerion, did you know? I always wondered what happened to him. Rhaenys liked to pretend he was the true Balerion, the Black Dread of old, but I imagine the Lannisters taught her the difference between a kitten and a dragon quick enough, the day they broke down her door."
After the end of the Dance of Dragons, Rhaenyra's daughter takes the Iron Throne as her mother's successor. She played an important role during the war, killing her uncle Aemond at the Battle of the God's Eye and preventing the Green Army from slaughtering the cities. She became the desired ruler thanks to the fear she instilled with her dragon, but also to the kindness she showed to ordinary people. When Baron Harkonnen learned of this situation, he decided to send part of his army, led by Feyd-rautha, to defeat the weak girl playing queen so that he could claim another planet. But little did he know that his army would be met with resistance of fire and blood.
King’s Landing is a doomed city. It was raised in a hurry by Targaryen overlords without any planning and regard to the actual people who will and have come to live there. It was built to be destroyed and it is going to be burned. There will be no Kings Landing by the end of the series. It is just as much a symbol of violence and repression as the iron throne is.
A little Rhaenyra drawing from my phone, but with book Jahaerys's crown because I like it better. The teaser had me going insane, I can't wait till season two.
“ you told me it was our duty to hold the realm united against a foe. By naming me heir, you divided the realm, I thought I wanted it. But the burden is a heavy one. It's too heavy. If you wish me to bear it, then defend me. And my children ”
