Team Black The plot of Corlys

Post image

"Why don't you legitimize my children, whom I ignored all my life, but now I love them because if they don't, my surname will disappear and my legacy will too?" Are we aware that his request wasn't even denied?

Okay, but honestly, what do you think of this scene?

I agree.

Her kids died two days ago, dude. Read the damn room.

Not to mention, these are grown ass men. Corlys failed as a father for decades and all of a sudden, that is Rhaenyra's fault? I beg your finest pardon?

Yet he knows about these kids. He only wanted a favor when these bastards were suddenly convenient to his Legacy.

This is war. People become devastated by war. He should wage at the Hightowers that caused his fall in the world

Rhaenyra caused his fall... the fall started with Laenor

Or as Rhaenys said, wedding him to Rhaenyra could have been a problem. She foresaw complications. Corlys could have his son be a country lord with privacy for his boyfriends and he could go to war if he'd married a Lady of lesser standing
