DAENERYS APPRECIATION MONTH 2022 ↳ Day 4: House Targaryen The ghosts of Targaryen kings guiding Dany during her visions in the House of the Undying, making her embrace her heritage to later bring back the dragons which parallels Viserys passing Aegon’s prophecy to Rhaenyra. The prophecy is passed from king to heir, making Dany the heir of all the Targaryen kings.
“…want to wake the dragon…” Ghosts lined the hallway, dressed in the faded raiment of kings. In their hands were swords of pale fire. They had hair of silver and hair of gold and hair of platinum white, and their eyes were opal and amethyst, tourmaline and jade. “Faster,” they cried, “faster, faster.” She raced, her feet melting the stone wherever they touched. “Faster!” the ghosts cried as one, and she screamed and threw herself forward. A great knife of pain ripped down her back, and she felt her skin tear open and smelled the stench of burning blood and saw the shadow of wings. And Daenerys Targaryen flew. “… wake the dragon…”
Imo this is likely the Targaryen Kings, agreed, and not the Kings of the Empire of the Great Dawn as some suggest. Amethyst and tourmaline are shades of violet/pink. And after some research, I discovered the other two colors, opal and jade, which we usually think as blue and green, respectively, can actually have different colors, especially violet or pink, the eye colors of Targaryen kings!
Opal, amethyst, tourmaline, and jade I remembered from my science classes are not just colors of gems but are different types of atomic arrangements of gems, so color is not the main factor in determining a gem's characteristics.
