"Nonsense, it's a chair made out of steel blades. Rhaenyra had wanted it all her life and had sacrificed two sons for it. She likely gripped the damn thing too tight." - King Robert Baratheon

Emma Darcy has said before that this season will be testing audience is loyalty to Rhaenyra but this actually made my loyalty to her even stronger because she’s just playing without any good cards and I’m just wishing her to succeed even though I already know the final outcome

I see it as the physical manifestation of the internal/mental damage being on the throne causes, and I think it cuts those who have to sacrifice their goodness in order to rule. Like Alicent said, “You'll do things that your heart would have recoiled from.” Of course I’m sure it’s not that deep but that is my interpretation.

It’s likely symbolic of their state of mind, the tensions of their rule. And yes, gripping it too hard. It’s not thors hammer testing worthiness. 🤣

I think all of the Queens and Kings were cut at some point it’s just how they interpret that. And she isn’t in a good headspace so she’s going to view it as a negative and any doubts she has in her ability are going to start seeping through.

Aegon the Conqueror was cut. It probably cuts people when they’re stressed. And the maesters were pro green, of course they’d mention Rhaenyra being cut.

It just makes me so sad the gods showed her favor with the white stag, just to reject her once she got on the throne 😞
