The #HOTD opening is a Targaryen family tree/bloodline represented on King Viserys' Valyria model/diorama.
What an amazing concept design.
The tree obviously starts with Aegon the Conqueror himself. Here you can see the Doom of Valyria represented in his circle and his crown:

✐ᝰ Cоmm by the amazing @ergosum_public thank you so much again 🤍
The Darrys displaying Targaryen King's tapestries all over their castle and having to speedrun throwing all of them in the basement when Robert Baratheon arrived there in AGOT is hilarious shit, I live for these little ASOIAF details

“I feared Rhaenys would blanch at the blood, but she held my hand the whole while. Sang to me that it was not yet our time. First there will be a river of rubies, a thundercloud in a clear sky, music at the gates, and a mountain in our room. Then we shall sleep wrapped in gold. Since we arrived, our girl speaks only in riddles.”
- Elia Martell to Rhaegar Targaryen about their daughter, Rhaenys, after Aegon’s birth.

Anyway the most important news of course is the fact Lyanna Stark is not anti-Aegon the Conqueror, the unified realm agenda stocks still up!!! ✊✊✊✊
There was also a spoiler floating around after the first preview, about Lyanna delivering a monologue to Rhaegar at the TOJ telling him to undo Aegon’s conquest, and return the realm to independent kingdoms. I can confirm that this monologue is now completely gone, if it was even there to begin with. I suspect it was cut early on in the preview period cause I’ve barely seen anyone mention it. Now, Lyanna tells Rhaegar that he must “heal the realm”, and there should be “no more fearful supremacy, but humble alliance” before he leaves the TOJ to end the war.
100% Robert Baratheon was thinking Rhaegar was mocking him by screaming Lyanna's name out of nowhere 😭
I want to elaborate more on this since it’s been the subject of heavy discussion. Rhaegar has a dragon dream in the middle of the Trident where he sees a black and red dragon (presumably Drogon). The dragon isn’t aggressive, he just kinda flies around and gets close to Rhaegar.
He reaches out to it, and the dragon recoils at first, but then Rhaegar tries again and successfully rests his hand on the dragon’s head. You can see both fear and awe in his eyes. Then, pregnant Lyanna appears behind the dragon. The dragon flies away and vanishes, and Rhaegar screams Lyanna’s name before Robert kills him. xitter.gq/got_onstage/status/208…
Baby Rhaenys Targaryen was a dragon dreamer and foresaw her family's death, this is so cruel and sad yet so GRRM thing to do 😭😭😭😭
RHAEGAR TARGARYEN I'M UNDER YOUR WALLS
Another addition that I can now confirm is Rhaenys being a dreamer. Although she doesn’t appear as a character, Elia talks about her. In the scene after Aegon’s birth, she tells Rhaegar that Rhaenys has been speaking in riddles since they arrived at Harrenhal, and that she talks of a river of rubies and a mountain in their room, clearly foreshadowing Rhaegar and his family’s deaths respectively.
Keep the Targaryens away from Harrenhal WTF is happening there not even baby Rhaenys got away 😭

Can we talk about how House Tyrell's power grab was the most IQ 8000 genius thing to do, they just pushed the Gardeners to send ALL their heirs to the Field of Fire and get killed meanwhile they sat in Highgarden just wanting to give Aegon the keys - 100% master move

This whole “were the targaryens popular rulers” discussion is gonna get a lot more insufferable come the Bloodraven Surveillance State™
The Ironborn trying to summon a Chtullu to face the Conquerors by tying a rock to their feet and jumping in the water is one of the reasons why I can't hate them.
Aegon the Conqueror casually landing on Iron Islands, personaly x1 their "king" and letting the Ironborn chose their future leader and then fucking off is crazy.
