About 2 years ago my mother took me to see a past life regression hypnotherapist - she'd heard of this lady on a podcast and I was like OK fine.

She lived up in the mountains and her little porch garden was like this. I'm not sure how to describe the experience - surprising and profound, but I have an audio recording somewhere I've never had the desire to listen to.

So much has changed since then it feels like looking at a part of your life you can't ever go back to.

This scene was such a good addition to the show. Not just in showing off how good an actor Dexter Sol Ansell is, but also a pretty great example of exactly what Dunk is trying to tell Maekar. One sight of his white hair growing in and Egg is so traumatized and full of anger that he wants to Actually Murder Aerion. He needs to get out of that environment that raises the kind of spoiled, vengeful, dangerous princes that we've seen in HOTD and AKOTSK.

Makes the change that Maekar doesn't actually consent to Egg leaving a bit stranger, like he doesn't seem to understand the problem even when it's staring him in the face. But maybe it's for the best that Egg makes the active choice on his own to recognize the issue and leave before he becomes someone terrible. In that light, the change is better for Egg's character than it is for Maekar's which is probably better for the show since we won't be seeing Maekar until S4 at the earliest.

Maekar and Baelor Cain-and-Abel of all time to me personally, actually.

"He is your brother. The Seven tell us to love our brothers."

Maekar, the younger, brasher brother. More stern, less diplomatic. Gruff, not charming. With four sons and each of them a failure (waiting to happen). And Baelor, who's too good to live. The narrative can not allow Baelor to live. He has to be crown prince and never king because being king in westeros means betraying noble ideals. The narrative has to kill Baelor, and it has chosen Maekar as its weapon. And still, Baelor's last words are proud. His little brother - isn't he strong?

The personalities/perspectives of these characters imparted so succinctly in like 5 seconds with no dialogue

Because children grow up, we think a child's purpose is to grow up. But a child's purpose is to be a child. Nature doesn't disdain what lives only for a day. It pours the whole of itself into the each moment. We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in its flow, later is too late. Where is the song when it's been sung? The dance when it's been danced? It's only we humans who want to own the future, too. We persuade ourselves that the universe is modestly employed in unfolding our destination. We note the haphazard chaos of history by the day, by the hour, but there is something wrong with the picture. Where is the unity, the meaning, of nature's highest creation? Surely those millions of little streams of accident and wilfulness have their correction in the vast underground river which, without a doubt, is carrying us to the place where we're expected! But there is no such place, that's why it's called utopia. The death of a child has no more meaning than the death of armies, of nations. Was the child happy while he lived? That is a proper question, the only question. If we can't arrange our own happiness, it's a conceit beyond vulgarity to arrange the happiness of those who come after us.

I like that this arrangement laid out in the first episode is the same arrangement they settle on in the last episode. Egg being Prince Aegon rattles their dynamic for a minute, but then they go back to how they were - they still want the same thing and it hasn't changed
