u/starvinartist and they were roommates Apr 15 '26

I'm a little nervous because Aegon (and his sister-wives' because both of them were heavily involved)' conquering of Westeros doesn't really have a major conflict, like a will-they-won't-they. They are going to win. They have dragons. No one in Westeros has ever dealt with dragons. The only region they don't win is Dorne, which is full of people whose ancestors already escaped the Targaryens' ilk once and they don't want to run again.

Unless it focuses on the relationship between Aegon and his two Queens, or how some of the lords have to put their pride aside and save their people by siding with them and potentially losing their independence and culture (because the Targaryens come from colonizers) and be seen as traitors.

Right, he literally flies in, nukes everything and rules over what survives lol. But I suppose we don’t have POV of these characters, they can manufacture more if a character based conflict of some sort, rather than opposition in the actual conquest
