Daenerys Does Wear A Crown In A Song Of Ice & Fire

Although she style herself as Queen , Daenerys never wears a crown inGame of Thrones- but that ’s not reliable in the book . InA Clash of Kings , she ’s presented with a pate as a gift by the Tourmaline Brotherhood in Qarth . It ’s mostly gold , but fashioned to look like three flying dragon , with heads of ivory , jade , and onyx , correspond Viserion , Rhaegal , and Drogon , and is described similar to what ’s depicted in the art from @paparinka_art .

Based on George R. R. Martin’s ongoing A Song of Ice and Fire novel series, Game of Thrones is a fantasy drama set in the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos. It follows noble families like the Starks, Lannisters, and Targaryen vying for control of the Iron Throne while a rising threat from the undead looms in the North. The series received significant critical success and amassed a loyal fan base due to its high production values, sprawling sets, iconic characters, and shocking twists.

The symbolisation of the crownwork then could ’ve continued in theSeven Kingdoms of Westeros . Rather than taking a Targaryen jacket crown , this would perfectly foreground her own personal journeying to the Iron Throne . Not just one of patrimony or lot , but of how far she ’s had to come to domesticate it . It mean her status as the Mother of Dragons , too , and how important they are to her . She , like so many Targaryens before her , can harness because of her firedrake , and that ’s reflected in the tip she jade .

Drogon flew away with his Khaleesi after Daenerys ' death in the Game of Thrones finale . Here ’s what ’s have a go at it about where Drogon went after GoT.

Daenerys wearing a crest would also fit with her test to be a different kind of ruler . While you could contend that not wearing a crown at all does this , Daenerys ' theme of"breaking the wheel,“was never quite as extremist as she seemed to call back , because ultimately she was still trying to reinstate the Targaryen dynasty . With that , then I think still having a crown , but one that ’s different from the late Targaryenkings and queens inGame of Thrones , could ’ve impinge on the right balance .

Daenerys' Crown Could Be More Important In The Book

Targaryen Crowns Add Legitimacy To The Ruler

Though it did n’t appear in the show , Daenerys ' three - dragon crown could be of greater importancewhenThe Winds of Winterreleases(orA Dream of Spring ) and she finally makes it to Westeros . That ’s not just for all the reasons limn above , but for how it could actually subvert her attempt to take the Iron Throne , based on what materialise with a key rival : Young Griff , aka Aegon Targaryen , the shocking - still - live firstborn son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Elia Martell .

The idle words of WinterandA Dream of Springdo not currently have release date .

Game of Thronescut Aegon Targaryenin its efforts to streamline the narrative ( and avoid Jon Snow confusion ) , but in the script it ’s very potential we ’re going to see a situation where he and Daenerys crusade for the Iron Throne . It ’s very possible that Aegon is actually a false , but what topic is what people consider , and a crest could help with that - especially with one hypothesis that he will get the summit and sword of Aegon the Conqueror .

Blackfyre , Aegon the Conqueror ’s sword , was taken to Essos by Aegor Rivers , aka Bittersteel , the homo who founded the Golden Company … the chemical group of sellswords that are now in the service of Young Griff . Meanwhile , the Conqueror ’s summit was fall behind in Dorne decades earlier- and Prince Doran Martell is looking to marry his girl , Arianne , to Aegon . It ’s potential both point could make a surprising riposte and fall into the possession of Young Griff / Aegon .

If that were true , then it would give him a huge degree of genuineness over Daenerys as the rightful Targaryen ruler , with standardised reasoning used for King Aegon II Targaryen inHouse of the Dragon . Daenerys ' summit has no Targaryen story behind it , which is the gunpoint in terms of her create a new order , but could number against her if Aegon beats her to King ’s landing place and take the Iron Throne before she get in .

That could all be a enthralling battle for the right to harness , albeit oneGame of Throneswould’ve demand many more seasons to get into . That would have made the story a draw more complicated , and I ’m not entirely positive it would ’ve ferment on the television receiver show , given Aegon is such a late - in - the - day twirl , but should certainly mould in the books ( if and when they come about ) where there ’s a mickle more room . Even without Aegon , though , Daenerys ' crown - and more significantly , its meaning - would have added to herGame of Thronesstory .
