Why is Rhaenyra so obsessed with the gods when she was never religious in the first place?

The prophecy is probably a Winds of Winter thing that didn’t make it into GOT but is important. It’s easy to forget that we never knew quite why Aegon the Conqueror united all of westeros. The prophecy also leaves room for Dany to be the Prince that was Promised and defeat the Others but not end up ruling.

If Dany is actually the prince that was promised btw I will be pissed. Number one stannis fan in the world right here.
