Rhaenys doing war crimes and showing mercy
Reminds of the Last of us 2 this is the same faux liberal message of violence bad but failing to reconcile the terrorist act of killing all the smallfolk/ ellie going on her rampage of revenge but stopping just at the last moment
Writer even said the small folk lives don't matter
Her showing mercy like that was dumb. She is now gonna link up with rhaenyra and start a war where even more of her family are going to die
You can't reconcile it because it is bad writing. Her old ass don't care about being called a kinslayer everyone she loves besides her grand kids are dead or dying
Also missing from the reasoning for the coup on the greens side is how evil and hated Daemon is. He is literally the main reason otto pushed for rhaenyra to be heir and he is the main reason he don't want Rhaenyra coming into power.
He's not afraid to send assassins to kill Rhaenyra if she became queen but Daemon is someone he can't have coming close to power alongside her
