And What a Dance it Was (NO SV, War is Coming, Prepare)

Daemons actions in the Vale, getting Dark Sister and now pregnant wife makes the choice of Viserys look better than before. Add in them being a son or sons? One of the few things Rhaenys had over them would be gone.
 
Due to your publicity, you have caused a small resurgence of the Valyrian religion in King's Landing and Dragonstone. The Stormsingers sing that you are the chosen one… The Prince that was Promised.

Yeah, they were grasping for straws, but there were also many things they had going for them.
Reading over this again and I'm wondering what they had going for them to proclaim we are a child of prophecy? Are they going by the signs or something else? Are they just making this up to oppose the Faith?

Probably making it up as the Valyrian religion is kind of mostly dead and we're probably the most public person that still worship it.
 
1. Viserys is the favorite but many of his personal flaws are known but they also know he is a young man with his wish's. He is okay with being king and won't shy away from it.

2.Laenor Though through the female line, he is a male heir and young. Westeros at this time can survive a regency because they belive that war is not going to fuck them up. The only problem is: he is gay.

3. Rhaenys herself: an unprecedented event in the history of Westeros. Will drastically affect law in the entire nation

Or it might lead to problems.

Big problems.
imagine her having twin boys
… haven't rolled yet.

Little of a and b.

They do have old prophecy about a boy dragon rider who will be a hero but that prophecy is already come to pass. But they are reusing it to give themselves hope.

Also the faith have been assholes again and they need that hope.

See above.
So do we want to head to the Riverlands and the North in the next phase?
I have plenty of ideas coming soon and you will love it. And it will be your adventure not daemons.
The North. They want to see us pretty badly.
Well we have a lot of people who want a piece of us. Choose wisely.
 
So one roll to tide you over:

Jaehaerys the Old King:D100 => 95

So he knows something and has plans… even for his death.

Daemon: D100 => 93

I always thought this was weird but isn't the andal succession supposed to be sons before daughters and daughters before uncles? Because than Rhaenys is the legitimate heir and Jaehaerys screwed up the succession.

Not to mention that the succession laws of the throne were never considered beforehand. Looking at it it just seems like everyone ignored the law or used it the justify their own heirs after they already ignored it.

Always saw it as Jaehaerys trying to make the way he became king the legitimate one. Like if we follow the one you mentioned then Jaehaerys nieces would of came first before him but he got to be king instead.
 
While everyone was playing checkers Jaehaerys is playing 4th dimensional chess...

And Daemon is just a little bit behind him...
Let's just say that the old king has one last card to play before the council. And it might be the last lucid thing the man does before the council.
...So, uh...can Daemon potentially become King during the Council?

I mean, probably not, but I have to ask.
Not a chance in hell. Daemon does not want the crown.

We'll have to figure it out one way or another.
 
Looking at it, I'm surprised the Faith immediatly went for 'HERESY!' rather than 'this boy needs a septa stat', given that we are like 10. That would have been a smarter play.

Also, if/when we get pardoned it's going to put Otto in an uncomfortable spot because his faith and house is going to want him to push us out of court while he knows that whoever ends up king (most likely Viserys) is going to be very much against that. Which will be good for Westeros as a whole.

The thing is, the faith does not like competition. It instead likes other things, like subservience and convert soon!

Basically we have him by the balls and it makes lots of fun things happen.
Not really, for some unfathomable reason Martell and Targaryen DNA go together like peanut butter and jelly, every time their bloodlines mix it tends to produce highly capable and sane individuals...
Meanwhile in the future with Viserys: Achoo!

Arianne: what's wrong?

Viserys: I think I found a way to make my family sane?

On the other hand, said highly capable and sane individuals also tend to have a high Mortality rate, so...

Like seriously, Bealor got killed in Ashford, one of his Brothers also died before he could become King, we all know what happened to Aegon and Rhaenys in Canon...
