Daemon tries to lure the Crabfeeder out. The Crabfeeder’s males retaliate with fiery bows, so Daemon is compelled to retreat with Caraxes.
This warfare with Crabfeeder has been happening for a few years. Alicent has already married Viserys and given delivery to Aegon II. She’s presently pregnant together with her second baby.

A messenger comes with information concerning the Stepstones and the Crabfeeder. Viserys dismisses what’s happening together with his brother and the Sea Snake since they began a warfare with out his express permission. He’s actually involved about Rhaenyra and calls for to know the place she is.
Alicent goes to seek out her. Rhaenyra stays cussed and refuses to see her father, so Alicent is compelled to exert her energy as queen consort. She tells Rhaenyra concerning the upcoming hunt and tries to get her to affix in, however Rhaenyra shouldn’t be having it. Nonetheless, she does have to affix Viserys, Alicent, and little Aegon II in a carriage as they head to a celebration.

This celebration is for Aegon. The group cheers for the kid once they arrive, and nobody even inquires about Rhaenyra, the long run queen. She’s left alone within the carriage.
Rhaenyra & Viserys Argue Over Marriage
At a celebration, the women sit and gossip with Alicent. Daemon’s warfare comes up, and Rhaenyra is requested about him. She says she hasn’t spoken to him in years. One of many girls mainly blames this warfare on Rhaenyra as a result of she was named inheritor over Daemon. Alicent defends Rhaenyra, telling everybody that Rhaenyra was “extra suited to the position” of ruling Westeros than Daemon.
Rhaenyra meets Jason Lannister, who isn’t shy concerning the proposition of marriage. Understandably, Rhaenyra will get irritated and walks away livid. She confronts her father, who put Jason as much as this. He reveals that since she’s come of age he’s gotten marriage proposals from throughout the Realm.

When he catches as much as her, Rhaenyra opens up concerning the scenario. She doesn’t wish to simply be price rising the standing of a lord of Casterly Rock. She is aware of she’s greater than that.

Again at base, Jason presents Viserys with a sword in honor of Aegon II. He brings up the concept of marrying Rhaenyra once more and says she can be well-compensated for her “loss in station,” which means when Viserys names Aegon II his inheritor. Viserys rapidly reminds him that he didn’t title Rhaenyra his inheritor “on a whim.” He provides, “All of the lords of the dominion would do nicely to keep in mind that.”
Otto reminds Viserys that he’s the king. He can order Rhaenyra to do no matter he desires. Viserys doesn’t wish to pressure his daughter to do something. He desires her to be completely happy. Otto has one other suggestion for Rhaenyra’s husband: Aegon II. Viserys seems to be at Otto in pure shock after which laughs off the concept. Aegon II simply turned 2 years outdated. All this discuss of marriage and politics annoys Viserys, so he continues to drink and drink.
Lyonel Sturdy is the one to provide you with a good suitor: Laenor Velaryon, the son of the Sea Snake. Laenor is of pure Valyrian descent and inheritor to the wealthiest home within the Realm. Viserys doesn’t instantly reject the concept. He simply stumbles to his toes and walks away.

Criston pleads with Rhaenyra to return to base, however she desires to tug out this journey so long as potential. “Do you assume the Realm will ever settle for me as their queen?” she asks him. Criston replies, “They’ll don’t have any alternative however to.”
Later, they hear one thing stirring within the woods. A warthog comes charging at them and knocks Criston down. The animal goes after Rhaenyra, and he or she tries to maintain it from attacking her face. Criston stabs the warthog earlier than he can do any harm. Rhaenyra grabs her knife and continues stabbing the warthog over and over, unleashing all of the anger she’s bottled up. By the point she’s completed, Rhaenyra is roofed in blood.
After listening to about suitor after suitor for Rhaenyra, Viserys speaks with Alicent. He’s torn about what to do about Rhaenyra and the succession. He claims that he as soon as dreamed a prophecy the place his son was king. His obsession with this prophecy killed Aemma. He confesses that he thought naming Rhaenyra his inheritor would relieve him of the guilt he’s felt. Viserys says he “by no means imagined” he would remarry and have a son. “What if I used to be fallacious?” Viserys asks, alluding to naming Rhaenyra his inheritor.

The subsequent morning, a bloodstained Rhaenrya and Criston look out on the land round them. All of a sudden, they see a white stag. Criston prepares to kill it, however Rhaenyra tells him no. She lets the white stag stroll away free. They head again to base with the lifeless warthog. All eyes are on Rhaenyra when she returns. No one says a phrase.

Otto believes that Aegon II was born to rule the Seven Kingdoms. Alicent doesn’t appear completely happy about this dialogue. Otto doesn’t let up. He says if Rhaenyra “stepped over’ Aegon to ascend the throne the “Realm would tear itself aside.” Alicent reminds him that everybody already swore allegiance to her, however Otto responds that everybody did so earlier than Aegon II was within the image.
“Rhaenyra can be an excellent queen,” Alicent says. Otto says it doesn’t matter. “Rhaenrya is a girl,” he says. Alicent doesn’t wish to increase her son to steal his sister’s birthright. “It’s Aegon who’s being wronged. He’s the firstborn son of the king. To disclaim that he’s inheritor to the throne is to assail the gods and males. The street forward is unsure, however the finish is evident. Aegon shall be king,” Otto declares.
Otto presses Alicent to persuade Viserys of this. When Alicent goes to see her husband, Viserys is nursing an enormous hangover. Rhaenrya’s marriage prospects come up once more. Viserys says Rhaenyra wants a person who will function her “king consort.” Alicent believes Rhaenyra will marry, however she must assume it’s her alternative.
Corlys’ brother writes a letter to Viserys explaining how Daemon is shedding the warfare on the Stepstones. It’s a plea for help. Alicent persuades Viserys to ship help to Daemon and the Sea Snake. It’s finest for the Realm.

‘You Will Not Be Supplanted’
Later, Rhaenyra and Viserys argue once more. She’s nonetheless pissed concerning the Jason Lannister scenario. Viserys apologizes, insisting that he was solely attempting to assist. He asks Rhaenyra why she’s at all times resisting him. “Since you imply to interchange me with Alicent Hightower’s son, the boy you at all times wished… You don’t have any additional use for me,” Rhaenyra says.
Viserys swears that she has “misjudged” him. “I don’t search to interchange you, baby,” Viserys says. He simply desires to see her completely happy and content material. She calls him out for all this discuss of benefit. If this was about benefit, he would have married Laena Velaryon and never Alicent.
Viserys emphasizes that there’s no manner across the apparent. He says that Rhaenrya should marry to “strengthen up your individual declare, shore up your succession, multiply.” Viserys leaves it in her arms. “I did waver at one time. However I swear to you now, in your mom’s reminiscence, you’ll not be supplanted,” Viserys guarantees.
Daemon Kills The Crabfeeder
On the Stepstones, the Velaryons begin to talk about their subsequent plan of assault with out Daemon. There’s undoubtedly some rigidity there.

As Daemon turns into surrounded by the Crabfeeder’s males, he kneels together with his sword. Considered one of Crabfeeder’s males takes his sword. It’s all a ruse. Daemon stabs the person and kills him. The arrows come flying, however he manages to evade them. Daemon continues to run.
Extra males cost towards him. It’s a grotesque battle. It’s Daemon vs. everybody. He’s shot with a number of arrows. Daemon is really about to lose battle, however he stands together with his sword prepared for them.
