Was für ein Staffelfinale! Wie finden wir Rhaenyras Make-Up? Und warum hat Alicia jetzt einen Crush auf Daemon Targaryen? Wir besprechen heute House of the Dragon Staffel 3, Folge 8: Rhaenyra erfährt, dass Aegon noch lebt, und wird zunehmend rücksichtsloser, während Daemon den möglichen Frieden mit den Grünen ablehnt. In Stolperstadt eskaliert die Lage zur blutigen Schlacht, bei der Ulf mit Silberschwinge schließlich beide Seiten und die Stadt selbst mit Drachenfeuer verwüstet. Am Ende stürzt sich Helaena aus dem Fenster, während eine Stickerei ihren Tod und Rhaenyra blutüberströmt auf dem Eisernen Thron zeigt, ein düsteres Omen für den weiteren Krieg. #HouseOfTheDragon #Staffel3 #hotds3 #hotd #Folge8 Nächste Woche besprechen wir Stranger Things Staffel 1, Folge 1 & 2.

Το House of the Dragon ολοκλήρωσε την 3η του σεζόν και το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες καβαλάει κι αυτό τον δράκο του και όπως πάντα, ακολουθεί τη δράση από κοντά, επεισόδιο μετά το επεισόδιο.Προσοχή, spoilers για το φινάλε της 3ης σεζόν!Η Rhaenyra προσπαθεί όλη τη σεζόν να κυβερνήσει τιμώντας το πνεύμα του πατέρα της, αλλά τώρα στριμωγμένη για τα καλά στη γωνία, και με τον Aegon έξαφνα ξανά ζωντανό, θα μπορέσει να αντισταθεί, και να μην γίνει αυτό που δεν θέλει να γίνει; Ξαφνικά πιο σκληρή και πιο μαυτοντυμένη, μιλάει από το μπαλκόνι για προφητείες και για την παλιά Valyria. Τι επίδραση θα έχει αυτό στους γύρω της; Τι μήνυμα θα πάρει ο Daemon; Πώς θα αντιδράσει η Haelena; Και ποιος είναι ο ρόλος της Mysaria σε αυτή τη νέα δυναμική;Στο μεταξύ στο Tumbleton ήρθε η ώρα για μάχη. Γιατί ο Ormund ξαφνικά δεν μοιάζει και τόσο σίγουρος; Που είναι ο ρημάδης ο Ulf; Ποια είναι η έξαφνη ριζοσπαστική πρόταση που γίνεται στον Daemon, και πόσο μπορεί να αλλάξει τα δεδομένα; Πότε θα ακουστεί το πρώτο dracarys της μάχης, και θα είναι αρκετό; Τι θα γίνει όταν απασφαλίζει ο Roddy the Ruin; Ποιος τον είδε και δεν τρόμαξε για τη ζωή του; Και τελοσπάντων, ΠΟΙΟΣ ΘΑ ΑΝΟΙΞΕΙ ΤΗΝ ΚΑΤΑΡΑΜΕΝΗ ΤΗΝ ΠΟΡΤΑ;;

SPOILER ALERT! Rhaenyra wanted to be anointed queen, so naturally she killed the High Sept and may have started a full religious war. Great plan. No notes. In our spoiler-filled recap of House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 8, the season finale, we break down Rhaenyra's mad-queen spiral, Daemon calming her down with High Valyrian prophecy therapy, Baela finally calling her out, Alyn stepping up, and the disastrous decision to execute the one guy who could actually crown her. We also talk Helaena's tragic final scenes, the white horse vision, the butterfly imagery, Rhaenyra force-feeding her sister, Mysaria getting fired and escaping, Aegon rising with Sunfire, Ormond's brutal end, Roddy the Ruin going out in a blaze of glory, and Ulf being possibly the worst dragon rider in Westeros. Plus: Rachel's top characters of the season, Ormond Hall of Fame talk, Daeron getting knighted, Gwayne serving Daeron the Daring, Corlys' loyal Velaryon badasses, Rhaenyra's terrible public prophecy speech, Team Green chaos, Team Black incompetence, and the pain of waiting two years for more dragons.

In this thrilling season finale of House of the Dragon, Sarah and Will dissect the intense events of Season 3, Episode 8, titled "The Treasons of Tumbleton." They explore the dramatic transformation of Rhaenyra as she grapples with the weight of her lineage and the brutal choices she must make to claim her throne.

We gaan er dit seizoen uit met een knal. Of meerdere knallen tegen verschillende hoofden. Drakenvuur van Ulf en Zilvervleugel alom. Zwaarden op plaatsen waar het licht nooit schijnt. Iets meer dan basisgeweld laten we maar zeggen. In deze aflevering pellen we alle scènes weer voor jullie uit elkaar. We maken vergelijkingen met de Bijbel, raden Rhaenyra een spindoctor aan, er worden vazen uit de gevangenis van Corlys geanalyseerd en we zijn nog steeds tegen kindermoord. Wij van Een Fris en Vurig Liedje bespreken het scène voor scène, met de lore zonder spoilers uit Fire & Blood, de verschillen tussen boek en serie, en de nodige woordgrappen.

The House of the Dragon Season 3 finale broke Rhaenyra for good — Chanel , Brandon and Sharmane recap the heel turn, Helaena's tragic end, and where Season 4 goes from here.

We're closing out our Side Quest Review for House of the Dragon Season 3, and a few final phrases from the finale really stuck with our hosts: “He Has Risen,” “I'm Alive,” and “You Are Ugly.” All coming from the divided House Targaryen. We got a bit of everything in this finale: a battle, betrayal, and a full-on crash out. Was Ormond's strategy justified? Did this season do enough to build up Ulf's finale decision and make it less shocking for the audience? And is Aegon now a bigger threat than ever?We get into all of it as we say goodbye to the dragons for the next two years.

The Geek Culture Congress crew goes deep into the House of the Dragon Season 2 finale, breaking down Episodes 7 and 8, the Tumbleton battle, Aegon and Sunfyre's return, Rhaenyra's increasingly ruthless leadership, Ulf's betrayal, Daemon, Aemond, Helaena and the future of the Blacks and Greens.

La terza stagione di House Of The Dragon si chiude con Rhaenyra che supera definitivamente un limite dal quale sembra impossibile tornare indietro. In questo ultimo appuntamento della nostra rubrica dedicata alla stagione 3 commentiamo con spoiler House Of The Dragon 3x08, dalla trasformazione di Rhaenyra alla morte di Helaena fino alla tanto attesa battaglia di Tumbleton. Rhaenyra abbandona apertamente il modello politico di Viserys, uccide l'High Septon e utilizza pubblicamente la profezia del Principe che fu promesso per legittimare il proprio potere. Sta finalmente diventando la sovrana necessaria per vincere la guerra oppure stiamo assistendo alla nascita di Rhaenyra la Crudele? Parliamo poi della morte di Helaena e della scelta di Ryan Condal di allontanarsi ancora una volta dal materiale originale, trasformando il suicidio del personaggio anche in una definitiva rottura emotiva con Rhaenyra. Ampio spazio all'incontro tra Aegon e Aemond: dopo tutto ciò che è successo tra i due fratelli, Aegon sceglie sorprendentemente la strategia alla vendetta e propone un'alleanza per riconquistare il trono. Corlys prova invece a evitare il massacro proponendo una soluzione politica, ma Daemon rifiuta ancora una volta la diplomazia. E finalmente arriviamo a Tumbleton. Una battaglia spettacolare, violentissima e praticamente senza veri vincitori: i Targaryen conquistano la città, ma Ulf trasforma la vittoria in una carneficina destinata ad avere conseguenze enormi. Chiudiamo facendo il bilancio della stagione, scegliendo MVP e WVP e soprattutto chiedendoci se House Of The Dragon riuscirà davvero a concludere tutta la storia con una sola stagione ancora a disposizione. Attenzione: la puntata contiene spoiler completi sul finale della terza stagione. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Season 3 Finale Recap — “The Treasons at Tumbleton”The Dance of the Dragons reaches a devastating turning point in the Season 3 finale of House of the Dragon, “The Treasons at Tumbleton.”In this episode, we break down everything that happened in the finale, from the brutal Battle of Tumbleton and the shocking betrayal that changes the course of the war, to Rhaenyra's increasingly ruthless rule, Helaena's tragic fate, and the return of Aegon II and Sunfyre.FULL SPOILERS FOR SEASON 3 AND FIRE & BLOOD.We start with Tumbleton, where the forces of the Blacks and Greens finally collide. The battle quickly descends into chaos as dragonriders turn on one another and Ulf the White's betrayal completely changes the outcome. We'll break down the battle, Ormund Hightower's final stand, Roddy the Ruin's role, and the devastating consequences for both sides.We'll also examine some of the finale's biggest departures from George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood. The show has significantly altered the stories of Ulf the White and Hugh Hammer, changed the circumstances surrounding Tumbleton, and restructured several major characters and events. What do these changes tell us about where the series is ultimately headed?Rhaenyra's storyline takes an especially dark turn. As her desperation to win the war grows, so does her willingness to use fear and violence. Her confrontation with the High Septon and her claim to be the “Prince That Was Promised” raise major questions about Viserys' prophecy, Targaryen mythology, and how the show is connecting the Dance to the larger story of Game of Thrones.Then there's Helaena. Her death brings one of the season's most heartbreaking stories to a tragic conclusion while dramatically changing the future of the war. We'll examine her final moments, her prophetic visions, and the major changes the series has made to her story — particularly the decision to eliminate Maelor from the adaptation.Meanwhile, Aegon II finally returns alongside Sunfyre. Once thought to be a broken and defeated king, Aegon's reemergence completely changes the political landscape. His reunion with Aemond sets up what could be one of the most important conflicts of the final season, especially after everything that has happened between the brothers.And where does this leave Alicent? With Helaena gone, Aegon back, and Aemond increasingly consumed by the war, Alicent is more isolated than ever. We'll look at where her story could be heading and how her television arc continues to diverge from Fire & Blood.Finally, we look ahead to Season 4 — the final season of the series.With the Dance entering its endgame, we'll discuss the major events from Fire & Blood that could still be adapted, including the second Tumbleton, the remaining dragon battles, Daemon's ultimate fate, Rhaenyra and Aegon's final confrontation, and the eventual collapse of the Targaryen dynasty.We'll also examine the biggest changes the show has already made — including Daemon's involvement at Tumbleton and Rhaena taking the place of Nettles — and what those alterations could mean for the ending.Has House of the Dragon been building toward the same ending as the book, or are we heading toward something completely different?Join us for our complete Season 3 finale breakdown, our comparison with Fire & Blood, and our predictions for the final season of the Targaryen civil war.

David and Jean dig into listener feedback on "A Dragon in Winter," with a community that had plenty to say. The conversation opens with a lively debate on where Cole's death ranks among the great villain exits in the Westeros universe, with Jean making the case that his particular brand of self-deluding villainy makes it more satisfying than either Joffrey or Ramsay. Ormond gets a thorough going over as listeners weigh in on his manipulation of Ulf and his willingness to set aside his stated principles the moment a dragon becomes available to him. The Harrenhal dream sequences spark a broader discussion about whether the castle itself is selective about who it reaches and whether Targaryens are uniquely susceptible to whatever is in the air there. Military Corner returns with a deep dive into the just war doctrine and the historical precedents for how rules of warfare get invoked, ignored, and exploited.Contact UsQuestions or comments?

Το House of the Dragon έχει επιστρέψει για την 3η του σεζόν και το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες καβαλάει κι αυτό τον δράκο του και όπως πάντα, ακολουθεί τη δράση από κοντά, επεισόδιο μετά το επεισόδιο.Η Rhaenyra προσπαθεί μάταια να κρατήσει τα πράγματα υπό έλεγχο εντός και εκτός του King's Landing, και τα πράγματα μόνο χειρότερα φαίνεται ότι θα πάνε μιας που μόλις έχασε τη στήριξη του Ulf και του δράκου του. Στο ίδιο επεισόδιο του House of the Dragon είδαμε για πρώτη φορά τη Dreamfyre, αλλά και έναν όχι και τόσο μεγαλειώδη δρακοκαυγά που άφησε τη Rhaena φυλακισμένη και τον Sheepstealer να τρεκλίζει σε γκρεμούς. A, μην ξεχάσουμε και τον Sunfyre! Welcome back, king!Σε άλλα στρατόπεδα, ο Ormund κόβει δάχτυλα, η Mysaria έχει τον τρόπο της, το κεφάλι του Criston Cole ταξιδεύει, ο Aemond συνεχίζει να γουστάρει τη μάνα του, και η Helaena ονειρεύεται κρυπτικές, αλλά και όχι τόσο κρυπτικές εξελίξεις.Συζητάμε αυτά και άλλα πολλά στο νέο επεισόδιο POΡ για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες, παρέα με το Vodafone TV που σε ένα μέρος συγκεντρώνει τους μεγαλύτερους δημιουργούς περιεχομένου – HBO MAX, Disney+, και η νορδική Viaplay!#HouseoftheDragon #HotD #RhaenyraTargaryen #GameofThrones

SPOILER ALERT Sunfire is back, Aegon is giving speeches, Rhaenyra is begging a sleeping psychic for validation, and Aemond's mommy issues have somehow gotten worse. This week on Thumb War, we're breaking down House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 7: The Dragon in Winter, aka the episode Rachel would like to rename Let Sleeping Dragons Lie. We get into Rhaenyra spiraling, Helaena's gray mare dream, Aemond's nightmare sex hallucination, Alicent choosing poison over direct murder, Gwayne's excellent horse dismount, Ormund's finger-in-a-box diplomacy, Sheepstealer chaos, Daemon's Moon Door stupidity, Mysaria's powerbroker era, and Aegon accidentally summoning Sunfire with the speech of his life. Also: dragon headgear, giant dragon shit, suspicious gowns, and Ulf quiet quitting Team Black. Full spoiler recap is up now.

Ormund just sent Rhaenyra a message she can't ignore — and it came wrapped around Corlys Velaryon's finger. This is the episode where the Greens stop playing defense, and it costs the Blacks more than they know.

“The Dragon in Winter” is an episode that shows how power alters people. Whether that power comes gradually like Mysaria's rise, surprisingly like Helaena's powers as a tool for Rhaenyra, or instantly like Sunfyre's return to Aegon… Whether it is unwanted like Daeron's crown or the ultimate temptation as presented to Ulf… it comes in many forms, and tends to burn all around it.

Send us Fan MailThis penultimate episode was definitely the best one of the series for me. There was alot of things revealed and it set us up perfectly for the first Battle of Tumbleton. This episode is packed with emotional moments, shocking betrayals, and major turning points in the war.

Rhaena is found to be Sheepstealer's rider by her sister and Addam, Corlys loses a piece of himself, while Alicent tries to get rid of a piece of herself, and Ulf shows us who he is and has always been.Get caught up with all the previous episodes with the links below:https://www.facebook.com/share/p/15xSdPmeKGb/https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DEZoQEDXv/https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BYM3fP1De/#houseofthedragonhbo #watchdemthrones #demthrones #blackwithnochaser

On this episode of HOTD on Story Archives, hosts Mario Busto and Zachary Newton discuss the following:Rhaenyra continues fumbling the bag, managing to distance herself from just about everyone who has her best interests in mind, aside from a certain worm. Rhaena gets a warm family reunion and Sheepstealer is met with affection by his new brothers and sisters. Meanwhile, Aegon gets lost in the woods with Larys and Tyland, and eventually gets a to a point where there's no sun, and they're chilling by a fire.

#houseofthedragon #gameofthronesuniverse Ser Criston is denied his greatest desire. Alicent continues to test the limits of Rhaenyra's mercy after her latest escape attempt. Rhaenyra continues to struggle with her duties as Queen. Ser Gwayne has a tense reunion with his ward and cousin after his retreat from the battlefield, but his presence pays off in a big way when a threat is revealed. Aegon makes a decision about his future. Rhaena is given a stark warning after breaking a promise. Hugh and Ulf make errors that may negatively impact their Queen.

House of the Dragon just killed off two major players — Chanel , Brandon and Sharmane recap the brutal "Butcher's Work" and the death nobody saw coming.

Ser Criston Cole finally meets the end he always swore would come with glory — except there's no glory in it at all. And as Rhaenyra's grip on the Iron Throne starts to slip, the people closest to her start slipping away too.

House of the Dragon gets rid of the character who's been hating since season one and the fandom rejoices. Aside from that, a lot happened and it was a ridiculous amount of misaligned agendas and assignments. Rhaenyra and the throne are having problems, Aemond can't be original while being trapped at the castle, Ulf and Hugh are stupid, and we get some relational relations. Oh yeah, Alicent is still trash. What was your favorite part of the episode?Please! Subscribe where we are, especially here on YouTube

Send us Fan MailThis was another good episode. And another good build up to Tumbleton. Both sides took a big loss. The greens lost Crispy and the Blacks lost the Seas Snake, but not from death. We saw the beginning of a relationship with Baela and Alyn, as well as Alys and Eyemond and possibly the end of a relationship with Hugh and his wife. Daemo  found the killer responsible for the deaths of the gold Cloaks and he embarrassed the hell out of Ulf...again. Rhaena is back in the Vale being a nuisance and Alicat and Rhaenyra are still playing cat and mouse. This episode also gave us better insight into who Daeron is, who Ormund really is, and their relationship...#houseofthedragonhbo #watchdemthrones #demdragons #demthrones #blackwithnochaser

SPOILER WARNING Aegon has gone from the Iron Throne to the latrine. This week on Thumb War, we're breaking down House of the Dragon Season 3 Episode 4, where Ormond Hightower takes over Tumbleton from a bathtub, sniffs his perfume ball, flashes the room, and apparently starts setting up a holy war against the Targaryens. Meanwhile, Aegon and Larys stumble upon Sunfire — who may or may not be dead — before Aegon gets assigned the worst job in Westeros: scraping shit out of latrines with a guy named Tangled Tongue. We also get into Rhaenyra's very tiny council, Allyn's “what about cats?” promotion, Ulf trying to cash in favors for his drinking buddies, Daemon finding Rhaena and Sheepstealer, Hugh's family being trapped in Tumbleton, and why Aegon might somehow be the most qualified ruler left.

The guys also Rhaenyra's continued focus on legitmacy, why the gold cloaks have already hurt her liberator status, Daemon's bad plan, why Alyn is good person to have at Rhaenyra's side, Ulf being likely to turn soon, whether Hugh could follow, what's happened with Aemond, Alys Rivers goals, and more!  Then the guys discuss X-Men '97 S2 Ep. 4 "Rise of Apocalypse: Part II" and how Magnus/Charles were always destined to make the mess, the shocking demise of [redacted], whether Charles was goading Apocalypse, whether the series is laying the foundation down for an eventual Onslaught debut, Kang dipping out, how the series has been excellent at building the story so far, where things could go next, and they laugh at some memes. Stay locked into the podcast feed because today at 11a CST, the Comicast Non-Spoiler Review of The Odyssey releases. Rate, review, like, and/or subscribe to Comicast on whatever podcast app you're using; Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, Goodpods, Podcast Addicts, or whatever your podcast app you use!  Feedback, questions, or topic ideas for the show?

Jason and Rosie break down House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 4, and make the case that Ormund Hightower is a different kind of villain: a self-styled refined gentleman with a modern politician's instinct for crisis PR.. They also dig into what they see as the real flaw undermining Rhaenyra's reign: an inability to understand what ordinary people actually want, from her plan to scapegoat a Master of Coin to her blindness toward what's motivating Ulf and Hugh. Plus, a rotting Sunfyre as a symbol of collapsing Targaryen exceptionalism, and how this season's Harrenhal storyline diverges from George R.R. Martin's Fire & Blood.

Listen as the guys discuss Emma D'Arcy's immaculate performance in a Rhaenyra-centric episode, the emotional/mental toll of now having the crown, Rhaenyra's focus being pulled into so many different directions, Daemon's lofty goals, Ormund Hightower's plans, the music adding so much tension, how the series deftly highlights the parallels of today's rich with the series' nobles, and Ulf... uh... absolutely not. Then the guys discuss how season 2 of X-Men '97 hasn't missed a beat so far, who Mother Askani seems to be, what the reveal in the past means for a certain conqueror we all know, Magneto not being the most ideal choice to guide someone, Jubilee getting to showcase all of her abilities, why the series is able to excel so well at letting lesser known mutants shine, and more!   Rate, review, like, and/or subscribe to Comicast on whatever podcast app you're using; Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, Goodpods, Podcast Addicts, or whatever your podcast app you use!  Feedback, questions, or topic ideas for the show?

Paul and Andrea are back, and after last week's devastating Battle of the Gullet, this episode opens with Baela, his betrothed, returning Prince Jacaerys's ("Jace") body to Dragonstone. Rhaenyra is consumed by grief, but when Daemon returns from Harrenhal with news that Vhagar has left King's Landing, she finally agrees to retake the capital.Discussion HighlightsThe Battle of the Gullet — Revisionist HistoryThe hosts note the show's "unreliable narrator" device: the dragonseeds arrived at the Gullet after the battle was largely won, yet Ulf later claims credit for having "been there." They speculate the in-world histories may write Baela (and Moondancer) out of the record entirely — mirroring the books' own unreliable-narrator conceit.Emma D'Arcy's PerformanceExtensive praise for D'Arcy's portrayal of Rhaenyra's grief, compared to a similar physical breakdown moment in Downton Abbey. Special attention paid to the scene where Rhaenyra rebuffs Ser Lorent's comfort.Rhaenyra's Shift to DecisivenessThe hosts track Rhaenyra's arc from "what good would killing him do" to ordering Lorent's death moments later, tying it to Daemon's "did the queen stutter" energy and the prophecy (the Prince/Princess That Was Promised) as a source of newfound resolve.Alys Rivers & the Ruby TheoryA deep-cut theory: when Alys tells Daemon "I'll ask for food and you offer me rubies," the hosts connect it to Rhaegar's ruby breastplate and the Trident — suggesting Alys may be cryptically referencing the eventual fall of House Targaryen, generations later.Daemon & MysariaThe hosts debate Mysaria's actual value to Rhaenyra's council beyond being a confidante/paramour, noting she's stopped functioning as a spymaster despite that being her narrative purpose. They also flag how strange Rhaenyra's inner circle (Mysaria, and eventually Alicent) will look to outside lords.The Alicent MVP DiscussionAlicent is credited as the true architect of King's Landing's bloodless surrender — minimizing violence more effectively than Rhaenyra ever managed, while letting history hand the credit to Daemon. The hosts are far more critical of the Ironrod assault scene, calling it an unnecessary and "despicable" use of the sexual-violence-to-build-sympathy trope, seemingly deployed just to justify the audience enjoying his death.Rhaena, Lady Jeyne & the "Nettles" TheoryThe hosts revisit a fan theory (credited to an unnamed Threads user) that Rhaena may take on the identity of Nettles later in the story. They also debate the parentage of Sheepstealer, guessing at Vhagar or Dreamfire as the likely mother.The Velaryons on the BeachThe "Corlys has more than Rhaenyra" line gets pushback (Rhaenyra still has three living sons). The hosts liken the beach scene to a "secret meeting" and mourn how much House Velaryon has sacrificed for a cause that cost them Laenor and Laena outside of direct battle.Dark Sister's SymbolismDaemon gives Rhaenyra Jace's sword — Dark Sister, historically Visenya Targaryen's blade — for the execution. The hosts read this as deliberate: Visenya is remembered (rightly or wrongly) as the warrior-queen of the Conquest era, foreshadowing Rhaenyra's own turn toward decisive violence.The Execution & the ThroneMixed feelings on how the final walk to the Iron Throne was shot — visually stunning (deliberately echoing Viserys's own labored walk) but "heavy-handed" in symbolism. The hosts push back on audience discomfort with Rhaenyra's visible grief while executing Otto, arguing it's a more honest portrayal than the "affectless" violence typically rewarded on this show.Historical Parallels — Who Is Rhaenyra?An extended comparison to real English queens: initially set up like Elizabeth I (diplomat, problem-solver, besieged claim), but the hosts argue the writing is now trending toward Mary I ("Bloody Mary") — a traumatized, zealous ruler shaped by grief and a singular obsessive belief (the prophecy standing in for Mary's Catholicism). Alicent is compared to Margaret Beaufort — a soft-power operator rather than a battlefield figure.Succession Planning CritiqueThe hosts argue Viserys's biggest leadership failure wasn't naming Rhaenyra heir — it was failing to rebuild his council around people who'd actually support her once he was gone, leaving Otto and Alicent in place far too long.
