Why does Allicent care so much? Her kids are already set up for succession anyway.
Who cares if tthe princess is a big thot who doesn't respect her own position?
They're actually not though. Viserys broke precedent and named his daughter the 1st empress. But that daughter is a whole fukking sheisty whore who will lie to your face to get what she wants or save her own ass. Her actions got Otto fired. By tradition it should be Alicents kid to take the throne.
But Alicent is a bit of a c*nt and a religious fanatic as well, with another religious fanatic douche (Cole) and a murdererous fratricidal cripple in her ear hyping her up against Rhaenyra.
So by the law, as it stands now, the throne is Rhaenyras still. But Alicent thinks (maybe rightly) that shes gonna murder her whole family once she ascends. My thing is.... if thats your biggest fear/worry... why do you keep antagonizong the bytch over the course of ten whole fukking years
