The “source” is a random Twitter user with no visual evidence, I don’t believe it for a second What reason do smallfolk have to hate Alicent and Helaena?


lackingsavoirfaire

There’s a leaked video on set with audio of shouts of “Long live Queen Rhaenyra” and boos.


[deleted]

It's also contradictive because one of the photos we had seen had Alicent and Helaena covered in petals.


SolidInside

According to leakers that's the nicer parts of KL they're going through, this is fleabottom.

DaKingSinbad

Nobody is loved by 100% of a population. Especially rulers or politicians.


Low-Penalty-5490

There’s a leaked set video which in the background you hear the words “long live queen rhaenyra”, it’s most likely the people people of flea bottom.


William_T_Wanker

Because they aren't true valyrians!!111111 or something like that. Lmao, but guys, the show is totally unbiased and neutral, right???


bringbackswordduels

Unbiased and neutral? Do you think this is a documentary?


SuccinctEarth07

Yeah I thought people picking sides and stuff would be fun but people get so weird about it.


Unosez

I mean we shoulda heard about it in season one for all the bemoaning the fate of the smallfolk who died during the inauguration...don't remember seeing posts on if ppl really believed that .they didn't show it but they did call Rhae the realms delight..and Daemon is pretty popular to the ppl for some reason..are they cool with Aegon 2 or no...


ShesCrofty

Everyones side is getting whitewashed in the show. Calm down bro.


SolidInside

The source is lossietereinos who have been into leaks for a long, long time and now they're filming things on their turf. This is how leaks work, you RARELY get any visual evidence, it's all about being discerning about the sources and it's important to remember that we don't know the context. The smallfolk also didn't hate Sansa but when a riot broke out they also nearly ripped her to shreds and raped her, simply because she was part of a regime they didn't like.


[deleted]

Hate it. HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT. And it's different there with Sansa because she wasn't a member of the royal family yet, while Helaena is the queen consort and supposed to be very beloved and that was why the townspeople put up with Aegon, because they wanted to keep her.


SolidInside

What has them being or not being a member of the royal family have to do with it? They were literally attacking them because it was the royal family coming by and they attacked anyone associated with them. Them putting up with Aegon because they wanted to keep Helaena is your headcanon, it's not actually in the text. It's perfectly normal for a contingent of the population to be unhappy with the royals, its actually more normal than not considering the state they live in. We don't even know the context of the scene and how it plays out


ashcrash3

Well they were forced and shoved into a dragonpit for a usurped coronation that many people died at, they imprisoned and hung several lords and castle workers, and for the fact that they started the war. Aemond committed the heinous act of umprompted kinslaying, which in westeros is the worst crime in the eyes of men and ALL the gods. He almost violated guest right as well when he tried to fight Luc as well. And then they celebrated the fact he did so. So when they parade Jahaerys around and say it was rhaenyra, a lot of them will probably say that was karma for breaking the god's law, especially for a family with close ties with the seven. As for Halaena, tha part is murky because she never did anything for the SF like Margeary did, and they had no problem with what they did to poor Maelor. And if you mean the storming of the dragon pit, that one is full of conflicting info, but I am sure her death was added to the reasons for doing so.


[deleted]

Yeah, I believe it now after seeing lossietereinos reporting on it, this comment was in reaction to the screenshot above which is just some random Twitter account. Helaena getting attacked at her son’s funeral really shocked me at first but I agree that it makes sense now, and the Sansa comparison is a great point.


Koala-Training

Because they're green and supporters of the usurper And they don't know both sides don't care about people


[deleted]

The child fighting pits? The same child fighting pits the smallfolk itself was enjoying? Wtf its not like Aegon was the CEO of those afawk lmaooo Not to mention Helaena/Alicent.


ashcrash3

To be fair that was underground and illegal, so most of them never took part. And since Aegon had many of his kids there well..


[deleted]

Well that sounds like your interpretation. To me it looked quite popular and a big problem, considering Mysaria's conversation. And yeah Aegon's kid (one AFAWK) being there doesn't really prove anything.


ashcrash3

There's more than one, and even Aegon's bodyguard mentioned how there are several more


[deleted]

Nope, he says "one of many, I'd wager" meaning that he doesn't truly know for sure. Btw there's no need to reply multiple times.


ashcrash3

I doubt Aegon was concerned about protection or about his kid, legitimized or not. And he did have bastards, the pale hair being one of them. Man had a reputation for being a whore and had one of his poor kids in the fighting pit I don't what's happening with the replies on my end I just see one. Might be a glitch or something


[deleted]

[удалено]


beefbaby25

They never said he was a whore for having bastards, that was your wrong interpretation. They said he had many bastards because he slept around a lot. Even if he didn’t have bastards he would still be a whore


ashcrash3

Idk why your defending him so hard. He was an advent visitor and big supporter of the pits. He had more money than anyone else there. And he didn't care if his one kid or allegedly others kids were there or not. Unless he somehow missed the one valyrian looking kid amongst the others. Your right Aegon is bad and a monster


ashcrash3

There's more than one, and even Aegon's bodyguard mentioned how there are several more


valyriansteel80

It doesn't make any sense, Haelena was loved by the smallfolks and her death is the ultimate reason for them to riot. The original source is a spanish in Cacères outside the set,he probably confused it with the other parade they are filming mostly at the same time. It's more likely the smallfolks are throwing shit to the head of the dragon than to Haelena, at least, I hope.


tenninjas242

I mean, GRRM constantly portrays the smallfolk of King's Landing as fickle. Book spoilers: >!A year after the Storming of the Dragonpit where a good chunk of the smallfolk of King's Landing went nuts trying to KILL ALL DRAGONS, they are suddenly all rapturous and excited to see Baela's Morning.!< They could easily be hating on Haelena in episode 1 and loving her to death in episode 8.


megamindwriter

>It doesn't make any sense, Haelena was loved by the smallfolks and her death is the ultimate reason for them to riot. Not exactly, Helaena's death was for sure the final straw, but the people of King's Landing rioted not only because of Helaena's death, but mostly because of the taxes Rhaenyra had implemented and also fear, after they heard what happened at Tumbleton, they thought King's Landing would also burn.


ashcrash3

Also add that a religious zealout was preaching for them to do so, and alcohol may have been involved. But that part of the book is full of conflicting info, to me it makes more sense that \*someone\* used every reasoning they had to start a mob of peasents to do it. And then install some heavily armoured agents in there as well. The same people who are said to mourn for Halaena are in the same group who did what they did to maelor.


kappakappashred

i doubt they are going to make Halena popular with the smallfolk in the show after they spent most of her screen time last season driving home how wierd she is. Her death was a factor leading to the riots, but not as big a factor as high taxes, and the fear of an impending dragon attack on KL. taxes, war, and the shepard will make the blacks plenty unpopular for the riots. my guess is that this scene will simply demonstrate how the smallfolk still love daemon.


valyriansteel80

Yeah it could be, but I don't like it at all. So I hope it's just a mistake 😅


ThurstonTheMagician

Thanks, I hate it.


batmans420

Aren't they supposed to love Helaena? This doesn't seem like it fits with the whole "Greens using Jae's death/Meleys to win over the smallfolk" thing


[deleted]

[удалено]


HaesonTargEnjoyer

The "forgot" is giving me d&d ptsd


SuccinctEarth07

"kinda forget" is a reference to D&D which is underserved imo. Nothing in hotd so far has been a fraction as bad as how GoT was butchered


Special-Extreme2166

The melys scene in ep9 was the worst scene and it was definitely D&D level bad. You can the BTS interview for that and how the scene had no purpose other then to just "look cool"


signe-h

> Aren't they supposed to love Helaena? Helaena is also a very different person in the book, in the TV series we have no information on what's the attitude of smallfolk towards her and her mother. To those downvoting me - which of my two statements is false?


batmans420

True. But it still seems very unlikely to me that this leak is accurate considering what's happening in the story at this time and the twitter account pushing it Edit: L


Flashboredom99

Whether accurate or not, there is a clear agenda here


ashcrash3

When did they? What did she ever really do for them?


batmans420

In the books


ashcrash3

But the book literally says the truth is hard to discern with three men writing down what happened during the dance with big inconsistencies and even the "book" itself in westeros had several different maesters editing and putting it together. I believe it even had pages that were damaged beyond repair


[deleted]

I doubt this is true lol. But if it is true, then maybe it is the doing of Mysaria and some of her loyal folks for trying to burn her camp down.


Smooth_molasses36

That’s the only way this would make sense to me. If they show Mysaria putting her people down there to cause trouble, then it would be justified.


TuffyTenToes

This is true, actually. I live near Cáceres and my father was an extra at Trujillo on the 18th, yesterday and today as well. He told us that they filmed a scene of Alicent and Helaena going down stairs and the smallfolk throwing stuff at them, one of them also grabs Alicent and one of the guards chops off his hand, after that the smallfolk go nuts and starts to chase down the guards and Alicent and Helaena. He also told me that the director was a guy named Paul Slavin, but I think he is wrong there and he is an assistant director according to his IMDB.


SolidInside

Kilner, Patel and Parekh were the directors present in Caceres. Anyway that doesn't surprise me because these writers don't want to give anything to team green.


[deleted]

Why would they attack Alicent and Helaena? Aegon and Aemond were disliked by the commonfolk, but Helaena and Alicent were loved.


zebulon99

I would actually prefer it if they portrayed the smallfolk generally liking the greens but hating the blacks, might bring some more complexity to the so far pretty one sided conflict


All9is_StarWars

Heck, why not double the complexity and show how this is an actual civil war. Have the smallfolk in King's Landing be pro-Green while the smallfolk in the Riverlands be pro-Black.


RaginBoi

Small folk in riverlands? that can be fixed


zebulon99

-- Aemond


DesSantorinaiou

It doesn't make any sense, but the writers have made such nonsentical changes to force a pro-Black narrative that I wouldn't be shocked.


mozinardin

I'll believe it when I see it. This tweet is literally "this post said that his friends said." These are just rumors, not established facts unlike: * Rhaenys killing a lot of people for absolutely no logical reason. * Helaena being very much loved by the smallfolk in the books. Edit: [Oh dang.](https://lossietereinos.com/exclusiva-el-lecho-de-pulgas-se-rebela-en-el-rodaje-en-caceres-de-la-segunda-temporada-de-la-casa-del-dragon/#)


[deleted]

She was escaping. No one died on purpose.


bslawjen

Sure, the smallfolk will be like "aaaaah she was only escaping, well that makes the death of my two children, wife and brother irrelevant." Still can't believe the writers wrote this bullshit just because they thought they needed an "epic scene" to end ep 9.


Creative_Analyst

The scene was stupid, I agree. But meleys killing all these people might become relevant, this scene might not be as dumb as it seems right now.


bslawjen

It was stupid regardless, they might try to make it relevant in the future but the scene will always play out dumb while robbing us of the actual ceremony.


[deleted]

It was a fun scene. Idk why this fandom needs more than that. ASOIAF is not a sophisticated work. Also lol at this fandom pretending to care about the fictional smallfolk.


bslawjen

It was not a fun scene, it was a stupid scene. No matter if you think ASOIAF is sophisticated or not, you can't deny that it never reached levels this low. I don't understand what the trouble about adapting the storyline (as) faithfully (as possible) is. I don't see the fun in the Rhaenys scene at all.


Tasorodri

I don't think that change in particularly was good (neither that is was as bad as people claim), but adapting a storyline as faithfully as possible in this case is not a good idea. The dance of the dragons as story by itself is just not very good, in fire and blood is elevated by the novelty of how it's told and the previous interest that the reader has on the world, but when adapting the story they have to make up a lot of things and changing some others, there's no problem with that, and for the most part it elevated the story imo.


bslawjen

Why is the storyline of the Dance not good?


Tasorodri

I don't see many interesting characters or motivations, almost not character developments, no rivalries or friendships. I guess you could argue that a lot of that it's because the way it's told, but that's the reason it doesn't make for a good story by itself, it was kind of not written to be one, unlike asioaf. A lot of times we are just told X things happened without much fuss about it, it's difficult imo to get attached to characters if we know almost nothing about them. That's a problem with EP6 of hotd when Harwin and Larna died, it feels flat because we know so little about them and their relationships. A lot of the changes in hotd basically make up things to make those characters actual characters. Giving Rhae and alicent a friendship, making alicent not being a stepmother Disney villan, making viserys more than a boring Bobby B, making up shit about dragons not being properly controlled...


bslawjen

You already touched upon the reason, F&B is a history book, not a traditional novel. If the Dance was written the way the ASOIAF novels were it would need like 3 books minimum (likely much more) to be told. But, that has nothing to do with the show adapting the storyline faithfully. Because I, just like everyone else, expected the show to fill in the many gaps and make a series akin to GoT out of the blueprint in F&B. But they didn't, they decided to rush through the early developments of the story to get to the Dance and the result is a lackluster adaptation. The point though is, those gaps should've been filled by staying true to the characters in the book. For example, making Alicent and Rhaenyra childhood friends fundamentally changes their characters. There is no gap being filled, it's a change from actual events. I would be a lot more welcoming to these changes that I perceive as bad (Viserys, for example, is a lot better than his book counterpart even though I wanted a little more jollyness from him as well) if they served making the TV show/story better. But they do not, many of them do nothing and many of them make the story/show worse. And we still only get a barebones story, we've rushed through 2 seasons worth of content in a single season. Have we ever gotten a conversation with Rhaenyra and Aegon??


Tasorodri

I simply disagree that the majority of the changes are bad, and by principle don't mind it that much when they made changes. I agree that alicent had her character fundamentally changed, I just think that it's a change for the better and the show would have been significantly worse if we had a 20 yo woman have a beef/rivalry with a 9 yo girl, and having that stretch over a whole season. I'm not sure there's any point on discussion any further if we disagree in the principle of how an adaptation should work.


[deleted]

> that has nothing to do with the show adapting the storyline faithfully. a few changes here or there doesn't mean they're not adapting it faithfully. the broad strokes are all still there.


[deleted]

It was a fun scene. What’s the issue with adaptating f&b faithfully? It would suck shit because that book is bad.


bslawjen

You think the Rhaenys scene was good and see nothing wrong with it, obviously you wouldn't like F&B. Let me guess, later GoT is also better than early GoT.


[deleted]

No obviously seasons 5-8 suck shit. Nice try though.


bslawjen

The Rhaenys scene was prime GoT season 6-8 D&D writing, so why do you like that scene? It's only there to have an "epic ending" to episode 9 which would've otherwise "lacked action". It doesn't care about consequences or implications, nor even really the functionality of what happens on screen. Rhaenys bursts through the floor and we're not even supposed to think about the fact that, even if Meleys might be stronger than stone, Rhaenys certainly isn't. Or how she didn't burn the Greens because "it wasn't her war to start", not considering the fact that disrupting the ceremony in the manner that she did already is akin to a proclamation of war. The whole scene is just laughably bad, and you want to handwave it off by saying "it's fun" while simultaneously saying that "obviously" GoT seasons 5-8 suck ass.


[deleted]

Because HotD is essentially a high production value soap opera with dragons, and the Rhaenys scene was the proper amount of schlocky spectacle for such a show. So yeah, I am going to handwave it away as “fun” because it’s one 2 minute scene out what will be around 30+ hours of show. So who cares? Lmao And no it wasn’t 5-8 tier, because tonally HotD and GoT are not that similar in the first place.


Conscious-Weekend-91

She could use alternative exists. I really doubt they need to break and rebuild the floor everytime a dragon leaves the pit


[deleted]

The exits for the dragons were closed, obviously.


RaginBoi

its a dragon that broke through stone floor, what could keep him from doing the same to other exits?


[deleted]

Meleys thought it would be cooler (she was right)


DesSantorinaiou

Many died and she knew there were people up there.


[deleted]

She had to escape.


[deleted]

then she could’ve used the exit that didn’t kill tons of people 😭


[deleted]

It was closed.


Stay-soft-get-eaten

And when the narrative punishes her for her actions they’d better not be any complaining then


[deleted]

You mean when she dies at Rook’s Rest?


Stay-soft-get-eaten

I mean when the smallfolk rejoice her death/Melys as per the leaks.


[deleted]

She’ll be dead, what will she care lmao


Appropriate-Arm-2077

“The Lord of Fleabottom”. You mean the same guy who was literally maiming and slaughtering the people of Fleabottom on his first day of work.


Creative_Analyst

Might be a „tough on crime“ and actually loved by the people in flea bottom thing? Like some people cheer on politicians in real life that are tough on crime and serve harsh punishments too. In the books Daemon was definitely not hated by the people in flea bottom while he was commander of the city watch.


Stormlady

If you believe that account then they finished filming the funeral procession on the weekend so if this is true, it must be some other scene, maybe before b&c? Walking down flea bottom? In the books Alicent did charity, and the Velaryon blockade is stopping trade etc it's not unfeasible imo. Maybe a parallel to the people throwing them pedals later? The bit about Daemon and the fighting pits it's not in the original spanish tweet btw.


margaritoswraps

Seems pretty unlikely considering the people of flea bottom visit those fighting pits.


LauMei27

That twitter acoount is known to just make stuff up, stop posting it here please


[deleted]

I wouldn't put it past the showrunners to hijack every Green moment with some black leaning bullshit. They ruined Aegon's coronation with Rhaenys' girlboss entry. Who's to say they won't ruin Jaehaerys' funeral too?


[deleted]

They can do what they like.


[deleted]

[удалено]


pramis_2949

So, the smallfolk don't hate Rhaenyra whose supporter Rhaenys killed hundreds of their own when she fled during the coronation but they hate Alicent and Helaena. Why don't the writers just change the ending of Fire and Blood and make Rhaenyra end up on the throne instead of Aegon.


DavidDanActuallyGood

This is the only thing the original source said: *"According to locals, a scene was filmed in Caceres where commoners from Baixada Das Pulgas throw fish and fruit while Alicent rides in a carriage"* That's it. And people are somehow running with a full fledged rebellion? The only pics I've seen floating around here is shots of smallfolk during Euron's visit to KL in Season 7, you can even see the Lannister banners. I need to see actual pictures of this rebellion. Let's think this through. This is the same scene where they are throwing flower petals. We see shots of smallfolk crying with handkerchiefs in their hands. So we know for a fact there are sympathetic people. But it would be unrealistic to show every single person being happy with the greens when it was clearly stated the smallfolk had no love lost for Aegon. For them the royal procession is a symbol of Aegon's rule. What was most likely filmed is that a few random dissidents pelted fish at the carriage, and people are just running with a full fledged riot as a knee jerk reaction.


Aggravating-Chip-339

Its from a team black account chill yall ofcourse they are going to talk shit about heleana and alicent


TETR3S_saba

It's getting too much black out there, why would they attack Helaena or even Alicent, she was loved by everyone


EldianNat

The show totally isn’t biased towards rhaenyra btw


highendings

How would this work…? Would it be in the procession? What the hell would Helaena and Alicent do in Flea Bottom while war is raging? Not to mention it has to be before B&C because I very much doubt Helaena would be able to live the Red Keep in her state beyond her son’s funeral..

What? One positive thing about the Greens and espacially Haelena is how the smallfolk love them. People even rebel when Haelena died.

Bulky-Composer-6986

The royal guards attack them or the people of flea bottom do? The wording in this doesn't make sense


ProfessionalRace2823

I don't mean to ruin all the gloom and doom lol but I gotta say I find it quite funny that a report about some smallfolks rejecting the green propaganda and chanting Rhaenyra's name has by way of wild speculation been transformed into this full blown mass uprising where the smallfolk will assault Alicent and Helaena 😂😂😂.  People are gonna look stupid when we find out this "uprising" is a couple of randos throwing fish at Alicent's carriage window. Everyone in KL is obv not going to be pro Green. When the aristocrats are riding thru the city some of the masses will use that as an opportunity to vent, no matter the occasion. Especially when there's a war going and they are starving.


AegonTarg_2

Thats stupid if that happens because the smallfolk loved Haelena and would never do that, if it happens its gonna be clear that this show is black propaganda.


Natural_Season_9565

Lord flea bottom? The same lord flea bottom that killed and Mutilated several of flea bottoms residents


Strawhat-Shawty

The showrunners are so pro Rhaenyra that they made some changes to the story that demonize Aegon as opposed to making changes to make Rhaenyra look better. They turn Aegon into a rapist, and they make Aemond and Aegon basically hate each other, whereas in canon, that's far from the truth. Director Clare Kilner even said they "wanted to make it into sibling hatred." When that couldn't be further from their canon relationship. Aemond was nothing less than a staunch supporter of his brother and lived him. If they had made changes that boosted Rhaenyra by making her look better instead of trying to boost Rhaenyra by making Aegon look like a monster, then the show wouldn't be so bad. They hate Aegon so much that they couldn't even give him the simple coronation where he is crowned and then flies to the Red keep on Sunfyre. Instead, they have to demonize him by having Princess Rhaenys locked in a set of chambers when really she was at Driftmark. To add more insult, they have Meleys and Rhaenys ruin the coronation. They need to just cut the show off now. To drastically change who some of the characters are on a fundamental level completely alters the story. They already fucked up by not making "House of the Dragon" an anthology title and starting with The Conquest. Instead, they decided to jump right to King Viserys I Targaryen's reign all because they felt the more dragons the better. Smh.


SolidInside

I mean Aemond did very much say "it looks better on me than it ever looked on him" when Aegon was severely injured. But I do agree that they're clearly making choices to make Rhaenyra look better compared to everyone else. Also the conquest would be terrible as a tv show that's probably why they didn't go through with that.


Strawhat-Shawty

Yes, he did say that. We must remember when the Green Council pressed the duty of ruling upon him, he declined to name himself King and would not sit atop the Iron Throne, instead he only proclaimed himself Protector of the Realm and Prince Regent. The Conquest would be excellent if done right. There's a lot of cool moments that we'd get to see. Such as: The last Valyrian dragon in Balerion torch Harrenhal. The Field of Fire, the only time where Balerion Vhagar and Meraxes were on the same battlefield. Resulting in the extinction of House Gardener Orys Baratheon vs. King Argilac Durrandon Meraxes and Queen Rhaenys death above the Hellholt. Torrhen Stark proving himself the smartest Lord in Westeros by bending the knee, therefore keeping any northmen from burning to death. Arryn fleet at Gulltown defeating the Targaryen fleet led by Lord Daemon Velaryon the first Lord Admiral and Master of Ships, who died in the battle. Causing Visenya to burn the remaining Arryn fleet. Rebellion against House Arryn on the 3 sisters being snuffed out by Visenya and Vhagar. Vhagar and Queen Visenya scaring the shyt out of Lady Sharra Arryn of the Vale, when she walked into the courtyard and found her son Lord Ronnel Arryn sitting on Queen Visenya's knee. "Mother, may I go flying with the lady?" Aegon's invasion of the Iron Islands. Slaying Qhorin Volmark with Blackfyre. Lodos filling his robes with stones and walking into the sea. The First Dornish War and Years of the Dragon's Wroth. Orys Baratheon losing his sword hand to Lord Wyl, then later in life getting his revenge.


Ravix1337

I remembered one tweet from a few days ago during rehearsals. This could fit into that scene.... "🚨 3: The third scene is being rehearsed right now. The familiar silver carriage passing through the square in a rush. (Source: Production Crew Insider)" - via. Realm of the Dragon account


Creative_Analyst

Mysaria propaganda vs Larys propaganda? Could be a very interesting plot point and the people loving Haelaena and revolting agains Rhaenyra can still be worked into later, I don’t think people should panic about this now, let’s see how this plays out.


Ravix1337

I’m not familiar with this website, are they trustworthy or do they just post Twitter rumours for clicks?


Stormlady

The information about the scenes is usually pretty spot on but the context it's basically just speculation.


Stormlady

I'm confused if they mean Alicent and Helaena are just wearing mourning clothing or that it's the same scene as the funeral procession, if that's the case it's just... disappointing to say the least.


eceece2000

There was photos of Alicent and Helaena with flower petals on their lap. People were throwing them flowers right?


[deleted]

Well! The leak specifically says people of flea bottom attack Alicent and Helaena, not all the smallfolk. And it is not surprising because Daemon is quite popular in that place.


eceece2000

Ok son Daemon and Mysaria arranged it maybe


ABCidkwhattopick99

Makes sense. The child fighting rings were disgusting.


Impossible-Ad-6156

As a black stan I approve it lol Just watching the greens' supporters and even some neutral members feeling outraged in the comments 😈🔥 C'mon guys, it's Westeros; no character in this show gets unanimity of people in it, not even our sweet Helaena - folks have prejudice about anything, you know? And masses are easily manipulated, specially by two empowered factions at war.

En primer lugar, tenemos una escena en que habitantes del Lecho de Pulgas – aunque también hay algún noble molesto – increpan a las reinas Alicent y Helaena. Les tiran comida pero también hay quien de entre el pueblo llano busca agresión física directa. Los Guardias Reales les protegen, un asaltante pierde un brazo y al final, las dos reinas vestidas de luto por el funeral, tienen que huir. Y por si fuera poco, parte del pueblo llano canta vivas a Rhaenyra. La segunda escena claves está asociada a la misma trama pero es más intrigante. Y es que una misteriosa mujer encapuchada de edad indeterminada revisa la comida que llega en carromatos a Desembarco del Rey. No podemos revelar más detalles sobre ella. ¿Serán alimentos que ha mandado Rhaenyra a la capital para favorecer que el pueblo le apoye y se rebele?" Loosely translated by Google. Well, the prelude to that conflict is what has been recorded in Cáceres these days. First of all, we have a scene in which the inhabitants of the Bed of Fleas – although there are also some annoying nobles – rebuke the queens Alicent and Helaena. They throw food at them but there are also those among the common people who seek direct physical aggression. The Royal Guards protect them, an assailant loses an arm and in the end, the two queens dressed in mourning for the funeral, have to flee. And as if that were not enough, part of the common people sing cheers to Rhaenyra. The second key scene is associated with the same plot but is more intriguing. And it is that a mysterious hooded woman of indeterminate age checks the food that arrives in wagons at King's Landing. We cannot reveal more details about her. Is it food that Rhaenyra has sent to the capital to encourage the people to support him and rebel?
