Rhaenyra’s “type” in men reveals so much about her character, how she is drawn to figures who emulate “strength” in contrast to her father’s weakness— as this wreaked havoc on her life— in a subconscious act of self-defense against the fate suffered by her mother, women at large.

Rhaenyra’s son, Joffrey, is described as being “familiar” to Syrax, which suggests that Rhaenyra introduced her children to her beloved dragon, taking them on frequent flights: They likely flew together, as a family, allowing Rhaenyra to bond with those she cherished the most.

If the object in front of Rhaenyra is a skull belonging to either Jace or Viserys, this shot could depict her attempt to privately mourn— to grant them “honor” and “dignity” in death through flame, in accordance with Targaryen custom— as she strains to “reconcile” with her grief.

Rhaenyra always looks so ethereal under fire’s light 🤍

Rhaenyra growing closer to her mother— mirroring her appearance, as well as her grief— as she continues to lose more and more children, Visenya, Luke, and now Jace, having lived through, and thus understanding, the depths of Aemma’s pain, as she is now a grieving mother, herself.

While the color black is thematically relevant to her character, Rhaenyra was not strictly “confined” to it— her attire was often colorful: She was known to wear intricate purples, reds, and golds, her crown was embedded with bright, multi-colored gems, along with her Jade Tiara.
