King Viserys: Ser Ryam was a strong
Lord Commander of the Kings guard.
13
00:02:15,248 --> 00:02:17,281
But he was ill for some time.
14
00:02:17,316 --> 00:02:18,916
He passed in peace, I hope.

00:02:18,951 --> 00:02:20,028
Grand Maester Mellos:
Yes, Your Grace.
16
00:02:20,052 --> 00:02:21,385
He was found to have passed
17
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:23,254
gently in his sleep.
18
00:02:23,289 --> 00:02:24,955
His remains are being prepared

00:02:24,991 --> 00:02:26,623
by the Silent Sisters.
20
00:02:26,659 --> 00:02:30,060
The succeeding Lord Commander,
Ser Harrold,
21
00:02:30,096 --> 00:02:31,877
would like to make haste in finding
22
00:02:31,902 --> 00:02:34,669
Ser Ryam's replacement
on the Kings guard.

00:02:34,704 --> 00:02:37,239
Ser Harrold We sterling:
Your Grace. My lords.
24

The Kings guard must soon be restored

With the help of the Hand,
26
00:02:43,113 --> 00:02:45,558
I've invited a number of
fine candidates to court.
27
00:02:45,582 --> 00:02:48,150
All have passed fair trials.

The last one was flying my banner.
31
00:02:55,992 --> 00:02:58,032
The Step stones have now
grown into a conflagration,
32
00:02:58,061 --> 00:03:00,462

Ser Otto High tower: If you've
something to discuss, Lord Corlys...
34
00:03:02,899 --> 00:03:04,800
I want to know what is to be done
35
00:03:04,835 --> 00:03:06,935
about my ships and my men.
36
00:03:06,970 --> 00:03:08,169
The Crown will compensate you
37
00:03:08,205 --> 00:03:10,575
for your ship and crew,
and make an offering
38
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,569
- to the men's families.
- I don't want compensation.
39
00:03:15,646 --> 00:03:18,112
I want to seize the Step stones by force
40
00:03:18,148 --> 00:03:19,548
and burn out this Crabfeeder.
41
00:03:19,583 --> 00:03:22,617
I am not prepared to start
a war with the Free Cities.
42
00:03:22,653 --> 00:03:25,320
These pirates are not the Free Cities.
43
00:03:25,356 --> 00:03:28,990
Who do you think provides them
with their ships and tender?
44
00:03:29,025 --> 00:03:30,892
In all of its history, my lord,
45
00:03:30,927 --> 00:03:32,894
the Seven Kingdoms have never entered
46
00:03:32,929 --> 00:03:34,763
open war with the Free Cities.
47
00:03:34,798 --> 00:03:36,430
Were that to happen,
48
00:03:36,466 --> 00:03:39,533
the losses would be incalculable.
49
00:03:43,138 --> 00:03:46,474
What reason does
the Crabfeeder have to fear us?
50
00:03:48,711 --> 00:03:51,278
The King's own brother has been
allowed to seize Dragons tone
51
00:03:51,313 --> 00:03:54,348
and fortify it with an army
of his gold cloaks.
52
00:03:54,384 --> 00:03:57,050
Daemon has squatted there
for over half a year
53
00:03:57,086 --> 00:03:59,152
without even a protest from The Crown.
54
00:03:59,188 --> 00:04:01,922
I'll caution you, Lord Corlys,
55
00:04:01,957 --> 00:04:05,893
a seat at the King's table
does not make you his equal.
56
00:04:09,098 --> 00:04:11,732
I have acted, Corlys.
57
00:04:11,768 --> 00:04:14,835
I've sent envoys to Pentos and Volantis
58
00:04:14,871 --> 00:04:17,538
to see if we might find common cause.
59
00:04:17,573 --> 00:04:20,708
Ships and men are at the ready.
60
00:04:20,743 --> 00:04:24,811
The Step stones
will be settled... in time.
61
00:04:24,846 --> 00:04:27,414
You have dragon riders, father.
62
00:04:33,655 --> 00:04:34,954
Send us.
63
00:04:37,058 --> 00:04:38,224
(soft chuckle)
64
00:04:39,528 --> 00:04:42,862
It isn't that simple, Rhaenyra.
65
00:04:42,898 --> 00:04:44,997
It would be a show of force.
66
00:04:45,033 --> 00:04:47,434
At least the Princess has a plan.
67
00:04:51,072 --> 00:04:53,592
- I only meant that we should at least...
- Otto: Perhaps, uh...
68
00:04:53,742 --> 00:04:57,976
there's some better use for the
Princess's talents, Your Grace.
69
00:05:00,614 --> 00:05:02,659
King Viserys: Why don't you take
the Princess to see about the new
70
00:05:02,683 --> 00:05:04,650
Kings guard posting, Lord Commander?
71
00:05:06,253 --> 00:05:08,086
A fine idea, Your Grace.
72
00:05:09,723 --> 00:05:12,458
This knight will protect you as well.
73
00:05:12,493 --> 00:05:14,292
You should choose.

Ser Desmond Car on,
78
00:05:36,783 --> 00:05:39,116
a fine knight, Princess.
79
00:05:39,151 --> 00:05:41,352
Step forward, Ser Desmond.
80
00:05:43,490 --> 00:05:45,022
Son of Ser Royce Car on,
81
00:05:45,057 --> 00:05:47,658
Ser Desmond has proved
strong and steady
82
00:05:47,694 --> 00:05:50,528
in both the tourney lists and without.
83
00:05:50,964 --> 00:05:53,576
While traveling through the Kings wood
on his way to King's Landing,
84
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,767
Ser Desmond recently brought
a would-be poacher
85
00:05:56,803 --> 00:05:58,168
to justice.
86
00:06:08,547 --> 00:06:12,048
You might thank him
for his leal service, Princess.
87
00:06:12,083 --> 00:06:15,652
We thank you for your loyal
service to The Crown, ser.

of Seagard.
91
00:06:34,305 --> 00:06:36,740
Winner of the melee at Cider Hall.
92
00:06:36,775 --> 00:06:39,675
He was the last mounted
of three-and-twenty knights.
93
00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:41,777
Ser Rymun was knighted
at eight-and-ten.
94
00:06:41,812 --> 00:06:44,312
Do any of these knights
have combat experience?
95
00:06:45,449 --> 00:06:47,315
Beyond capturing poachers.

Ser Criston Cole.
98

Son of the steward
of the Lord of Blackhaven.
99
00:07:08,505 --> 00:07:10,539
Be welcome, Ser Criston.
100
00:07:12,509 --> 00:07:14,876
You saw combat in the Storm lands.
101
00:07:14,911 --> 00:07:16,911
Dornish marches, Princess.
102
00:07:17,346 --> 00:07:21,282
I fought for a year as a foot solider
against the Dornish incursions.
103
00:07:21,317 --> 00:07:23,350
Ser Arlan Dondarrion
knighted me after we razed
104
00:07:23,386 --> 00:07:25,687
two of the watchtowers
along the Boneway.
105
00:07:31,094 --> 00:07:33,227
I choose Ser Criston Cole.
106

Let's not be too hasty, Princess.
107
00:07:37,433 --> 00:07:40,602
There's no doubt Ser Criston
is a fine warrior,
108
00:07:40,637 --> 00:07:43,170
but houses such as
Crakehall and Mallister
109
00:07:43,206 --> 00:07:45,907
are important allies of The Crown.
110
00:07:45,942 --> 00:07:47,108
Seagard, for instance,
111
00:07:47,143 --> 00:07:48,642
is the realm's prime defense
112
00:07:48,677 --> 00:07:50,410
against reavers from the Iron Islands.
113
00:07:50,445 --> 00:07:52,445
Those men are tourney knights.
114
00:07:52,815 --> 00:07:55,281
My father should be defended by
a man who's known real combat.
115
00:07:57,786 --> 00:07:59,152
Should he not?
116
00:08:01,189 --> 00:08:02,923
Of course, Princess.
117
00:08:02,958 --> 00:08:05,926
Well, let us plan Ser Criston's
investiture then.

capital was built into a volcano,

much like Dragons tone.
122

And the dragon lords,
the highest of the nobility,
123
00:08:22,744 --> 00:08:25,645
lived here, at the volcanic face,

134
00:08:51,873 --> 00:08:52,873
That depends,

a navy large enough to span
the seas of the world.

- Well, these days,

00:09:31,177 --> 00:09:33,877
she doesn't say more
than a few words to me.
145
00:09:33,913 --> 00:09:36,480
I think she might find it difficult...
146
00:09:37,517 --> 00:09:39,750
to discuss personal matters.
147
00:09:41,254 --> 00:09:42,720
It will take time.

What if you went to her?

I think she would open
herself to you if invited.

you, Your Grace.

I know those men and how they plot
167
00:10:53,357 --> 00:10:56,592
in their secret councils
when I've been sent away.
168
00:10:56,627 --> 00:11:00,629
You cannot worry at the matters
of lords and kings, Rhaenyra.

What if your father were to remarry?
170

Your father loves you.
171
00:11:21,150 --> 00:11:24,185
He chose you for his heir.
172
00:11:24,220 --> 00:11:27,121
He didn't choose me.
He spurns Daemon.

- I know it sounds foolish.
- I don't think it's foolish.

- I don't.
- Good...

00:24:12,103 --> 00:24:15,237
the men of the realm
will expect him to be heir,
360
00:24:15,273 --> 00:24:16,906
not you.
361
00:24:19,043 --> 00:24:21,342
Because that is the order of things.
362
00:24:23,346 --> 00:24:25,847
When I'm Queen,
I will create a new order.
363

365
00:24:30,054 --> 00:24:32,654
But the men of the realm
already had their opportunity
366
00:24:32,690 --> 00:24:35,190
to appoint a ruling queen
at the Great Council
367
00:24:35,225 --> 00:24:37,025
and they denied it.
368
00:24:37,061 --> 00:24:40,629
They denied you, Princess Rhaenys.
369

370

371
00:24:44,635 --> 00:24:46,167
and called me heir to the throne.
372
00:24:46,203 --> 00:24:47,614
Do you remind your father's men of that
373
00:24:47,638 --> 00:24:49,605
as you carry their cups?
374
00:24:53,776 --> 00:24:55,676
Here is the hard truth,
375
00:24:55,712 --> 00:24:59,747
which no one else has
the heart to tell you.
376
00:24:59,782 --> 00:25:03,518

ascend the Iron Throne.

King Viserys: The Small Council
is urging me to remarry.
381
00:25:33,182 --> 00:25:36,116
It seems the realm
wants for a new queen.
382

A good and kind queen will
give comfort to your subjects.
383

Does the Small Council have
a particular lady in mind?
384
00:25:51,943 --> 00:25:52,943
Uh...
385
00:25:54,936 --> 00:25:59,838
Lord Corlys Velaryon has offered
the hand of his daughter,
386
00:25:59,874 --> 00:26:02,441
the Lady Laena.
387
00:26:02,477 --> 00:26:04,710
A very strong match, Your Grace.
388
00:26:05,980 --> 00:26:10,416

I don't know Laena very well.
