I have a theory about why Alicent is going to Harrenhal.

Alicent made a deal with Rhaenyra for herself, Helaena, and her daughter. Rhaenyra had promised them safety. But at the time of the deal, Alicent did not know about Helaena’ pregnancy and that she would have a boy. The High Septon will refuse to crown Rhaenyra until there is proof of Aegon's death. Rhaenyra is not going to spare even Daeron and wants to send him to the wall because he is a pretender to the throne. And then Aegon's son, the heir, is born. In the leaks about Maelor, it is clear that the child is not being held by maids or nannies, as is the case normally, but by Rhaenyra’ royal guard. I don't think she'll order the child to be killed, but she probably won't let Helaena and Alicent raise him. Most likely, she will take him away to be raised under her supervision, and then she will probably send him to the wall like Daeron. And then, perhaps, Alicent will remember about Aemond. We know she's going to Harrenhal on some kind of mission. But her real goal may be to convince Aemond to kill Damon in order to save Alicent, Helaena and the children. It doesn't look like he's burning Riverlands in the middle of the season, he's probably just at Harrenhal with Alys. And it takes some kind of catalyst for him to start doing it, to lure Daemon out. In the last conversation, Alicent tells Aemond that she will come to Harrenhal to see him. Moreover, she tells him that he needs to lure Daemon out and kill him, this will be a very serious blow for Rhaenyra, from which she will not recover. Maybe she was just talking nonsense so that he would fly away, but it would be funny if all this actually happened. By the way, that's exactly what Aemond said in the book, and that was his plan. Maybe Helaena will contact him, too.

In addition, Ewan said in his interviews that Aemond wants to win the war for his mother. And I remember a song that Gayle posted about a year ago, where the hero prefers family to a girl, even though the girl loved him more. Maybe all this doesn't mean anything, but it seems to me that Aemond’ story will somehow be connected with Alicent.

He needed a capable hand, and if Otto had been with him the way he wanted, I think he would have done pretty well.

>!Did she really think he'd be safe at Harrenhal?🤣!<

>!Rhaenyra promises Harrenhal for Aemond‘ head. So Alys can give it away and get Harrenhal. But she saves him anyway. Interesting!<

This post is a joke, so please don't take it seriously😁

But really, Aemond should have died many times already at the beginning of the season. Both parts of his family want him dead, but in the end their attempts backfire on them. Judge for yourself: Alicent tells Rhaenyra that Aemond will fly to Harrenhal and Rhaenyra sets up an ambush there. But thanks to Helaena telling him her prophecy, Aemond lingers in King's Landing. Meanwhile, Alys (who is still helping TB at the time) tells the dragon seeds about the battle and they fly away, filming the ambush. Alicent convinces Aemond to fly to Harrenhal (to his death), but the ambush has already been lifted and thanks to this, he is not killed by TB dragons during the capture of King's Landing. Daemon then refuses to give Alys Harrenhal and insults her. She gets angry and saves Daemon’ enemy, Aemond. Aemond should have died many times already, but every time something saves him. Surely fate has something special in store for Aemond☺️

By the way, all of Daemon's work has gone down the drain, and the garrison he left behind is dead.

In the scene of Simon's murder, he had such an expression on his face, as if he himself was shocked by the kind of person he had become, although it probably had some other meaning.

To be honest, I don't understand why so many people call Aemond a bad fighter. He was probably overconfident, or perhaps he was in too serious a mental state - he has a prediction about his imminent death, his most dear person, his mother, seems to have betrayed him. He was careless by turning his back on Simon's son. Simon's son injured him not because he was superior in combat skills, but because of Aemond’ carelessness. But at the same time, he single-handedly captured a huge castle with a whole garrison of armed and trained people and personally killed many warriors in a fair fight. His fighting skills are really great.

By the way, it feels like he and Vhagar have a complete understanding. She doesn't need his commands, as if they have a mental connection.

By the way, it looks like he returned Viserys' books.

The girl is gorgeous as always😊

I wonder if Aemond’ signature is so childish. Just “AT“ in large letters? Lol

Below are examples of signatures of other characters.

Or is it just that Alicent doesn't know how he signs himself and couldn't convincingly forge his signature?

Alicent wasn't afraid that Aemond would do something to her because he was evil. She beats and insults him without fear of any consequences. She was afraid that he wouldn't fly to Harrenhal and her deal with Rhaenyra would fall through.

This custom seems to me very appropriate to the situation.

A few days ago, Alicent yelled at him and beat him (by the way, she was allegedly afraid that he would do something to her for refusing - she was not afraid of him at all). Then she disappeared for a few days. And she came back with a scared face, as if she had something to hide. After that, she suddenly started talking harshly about how much she loved him, how afraid she was for him, couldn't lose him, and begged him to fly to Harrenhal. That he should have been born first and what a wonderful king he would have become (a couple of days before, she said he was terrible). Aemond hadn't done anything new these couple of days, so why had she changed her mind so much? Obviously, the reason is that she did something herself. Besides, in the second season, he himself said that she loves the enemy. So it seems to me that he understood everything.

And his phrase about a feast in her honor is a mockery of her lies. Or maybe he wanted her to feel some kind of remorse for her betrayal.

By the way, this has a funny connection with the book where he was also going to chop off Daemon’ head and have a feast.

It's a joke, of course, but😁

At least the throne really suits him😁

I'm sorry, but it didn't seem to me at all that Alicent was talking to him like a son, more like a man.

Does he have spies? Is he peeking in person? Does he have a crystal ball? It seems that his hatred for Larys is also related to what he knows about him and Alicent. So many questions, so few answers😅
