HER SPY WAS THE SAME ONE
WHO TOLD OTTO ABOUT
RHAE/DAEMON IN THE BROTHEL.

DOESNT MAKE MUCH SENSE
FOR HIM TO TAKE THAT INFO
AS TRUTH WITHOUT
KNOWING WHO IT CAME FROM.

:devil:
:evil:

I thought the brothel snitch was a little boy sitting on the stairs?

its not about aegon as a character. its how clumsily all these events were thrown together

why does otto, a guy who's literally met mysaria before when he had a direct confrontation with daemon somehow come to the point where he's asking her where his grandson is on the day he's wagered everything on

he's shown to have an information network in the past, but somehow not only does he not know of her being back in KL but he's also forced to meet her in the open to get access to *her* information to find his heir - who is stuffed into some cubbyhole in the middle of a horribly conspicuous building

this was worse than some of the season 8 shyt the more i think about it lol...
The White Worm is now a power figure in King's Landing. She uses spies and sells the information. They've been building her up all season, we all knew this before the episode. Aegon purposefully sought her out and had her help stash him away. She knew where he was because they were working together. They made this clear when Aegon asked where the White Worm was when they pulled him out at the church.

They didn't know the exact day Viserys was going to die to know to have Aegon on hand. You think they should have just kept him on lockdown in case the king died?

Your logic is faulty :yeshrug:

Yes. The Lord Commander of the KG is one of the most powerful positions in the realm. They even have a seat on the small council.

The Kingsguard was barely featured in GoT (and I don't even remember any full blown coronations in Thrones), but this show is trying to be more faithful to how things work in the books. And yes, Criston crowned Aegon II in the books, so its not some show invention to make him seem important.

That's because Cersei/Joffrey b*stardized the entire sanctity of it, having fuggin Meryn Trant up there :scust:

They're supposed to be like the Knights of the Round Table.

The most formidable warriors in all of Westeros who uphold their office with honor, dignity and valor. Arthur Dayne, Barristan the Bold and Gerold Hightower were the Dream Team of the 280s AC :wow:

Criston Cole is a cornball though.

Yeah he was trying to pull a laenor and gtfo but white worm knew the cost the hand would be greater which is why it was reform based what she asked for (stop using kids of flea bottom) and less just gold. She knew what he was worth.

so otto let daemon's jumpoff not only frolic around unchecked, as she was claimed to be pregnant the last time he saw her as well, but actually gain enough power to ransom his grandson too :unimpressed:
You are acting like Otto cares about a red light district in Kings Landing in the first place so why care about one whore in particular?

He was out of Kings Landing for years. What power would he have to track what was going on there in the red light district.

And back to what I said is good writing, Otto only care about power that is inline with his goals. That’s why he gets blindsided.

nah, yal trying to squeeze a square into a circle shape here just to protect the integrity of a show that doesn't believe in guarding dragons during a coup.

why does otto not know about her when their networks overlap?

on top of that, the main person in the show who would want her out the paint is otto - a decade ago or not, daemon claimed she was carrying his child. kind of a big deal and probably on the to-do list of assuring alicent/aegon challengers die.
