Don't get me wrong #DaemonTargaryen is the night's MVP but can we show some appreciation for the man slinging dragonfire in that battle? Laenor Velaryon and #Seasmoke absolutely dropping dimes on the battlefield #houseofthedragon the #HouseVelaryon history lesson (no spoilers) that we all need after that battle 🚬 #HOTD

Can't stop thinking about #HouseVelaryon and the #Houseofthedragon battle in Stepstones? Us too. Let's unpack what we know from Fire & Blood and the lore in a (spoiler free) deep dive into the second most powerful House in Westeros during #HOTD 🧵 In Episode 2 Corlys tells Daemon that #HouseVelaryon is just as old (or older) then the Targs, but unlike other lords *he* built his house's power on his own back. Exaggerating to impress Daemon? Nope. Corlys' journey to power is one of the most interesting in Westeros history.

So Episode 3 of #HouseOfTheDragonHBO is taking us to the Stepstones to fight the Crab Daddy™ and The Triarchy. The show's version is slightly different from Fire & Blood, but let's unpack what we know from the books and lore (no spoilers) about the upcoming #HOTD conflict 🧵 The Stepstones are rocky islands in the Narrow Sea, between Dorne and Essos. F&B says they've "long been a haunt for exiles, outlaws, wreckers, and pirates." Which sounds lit... except the islands are shitty little rocks. But, they are vital to Westeros' shipping and trade.
