All language subtitles for 16 AEGON. FIRST of HIS NAME by VISERYS TARGARYEN

VISERYS: The heads of Westeros
had bowed to Aegon,

but its heart still beat free.

Oldtown, the center of the
Faith of the Seven.

There dwelt the High Septon,
the Father of the Faithful,

who commanded the obedience
of all Westeros,

save the savages of the North
and their Old Gods.

When Aegon had landed in Westeros,

the High Septon had locked himself
in the Starry Sept

and fasted for seven days and seven nights,

one for each of his gods.

All he received for his trouble
was the divine wisdom

that if Oldtown took up arms
against the Dragon, the city would burn,

faithful and faithless alike.

After the submission of House Stark,

Aegon marched towards Oldtown,
steeling himself for another battle.

But he found the gates open,
with the High Septon welcoming him.

The pious fool even had the arrogance
to grant what Aegon had already won,

and anointed the last Valyrian
as "Aegon of House Targaryen,

"First of His Name,
King of the Andals and the First Men,

"Lord of the Seven Kingdoms
and Protector of the Realm."

As if titles meant anything to a man
before whom time itself now bowed.

The maesters would hence divide all history
into "Before" and "After Conquest."

Most expected Aegon to stay
and make Oldtown his seat,

but soon after his coronation, Aegon
returned to the mouth of the Blackwater River

where he had first set foot on Westeros.

A small town had since sprouted
around his primitive fort.

To honor their new master,
the locals dubbed it King's Landing,

though it looked more fit for a hedge knight,

with wooden palisades, muddy streets

and piles of mangled swords
carted in from every corner of the conquest.

But when Aegon made it his court,
wood became stone.

Black mud was buried beneath a Red Keep.

And the collected swords of Aegon's foes
were blasted by dragonfire,

and became a seat fit for the Conqueror

and the greatest dynasty
this world has ever known.

House Targaryen.

My family.

My throne.

Or so it should've been.
