There's something I really don't understand. In the scene with Jace and Rhaenyra, Rhaenyra tells Jace that they need the dragon riders in order to have more dragons, so that war can be prevented. I thought the war had already begun by episode 3/4
? Why in the penultimate episode of this season is she still talking about preventing a war that has already begun? That makes zero sense. Greens have already captured several castles, killed men pledged to her, killed someone on her council AND her biggest dragon up until then, and killed one of her sons, on top of her already trying to sue for peace with Alicent and getting rejected? That scene doesn't make sense to me.
