Alicent Hightower & Luthor Largent
HOUSE OF THE DRAGON — 3.02: Queen’s Landing (2026)
Yes, Rhaenicent is my ship. I just want Alicent to have fun with this really hot man because she deserves it. Also, I'm one of the few people who sees her as bisexual. I believe that she and Rhaenyra could be the greatest bi4bi couple in the entire GOT universe.
Ser Luthor, you’re the fuckin’ goat.
You know they cast the actor playing Gwayne Hightower for this moment alone:
“Queen Alicent’s brother Ser Gwayne Hightower, second in command of the gold cloaks, rushed to the stables, intending to sound the warning; he was seized, disarmed, and dragged before his commander, Luthor Largent. When Hightower denounced him as a turncloak, Ser Luthor laughed. “Daemon gave us these cloaks,” he said, “and they’re gold no matter how you turn them.” Then he drove his sword through Ser Gwayne’s belly and ordered the city gates opened to the men pouring off the Sea Snake’s ships.” - Fire & Blood
👏
One of the best moments in this Dance. They better not mess this up. I want to see Otto and Alicent’s reactions to the gold cloaks keeping their loyalty to the one and only Daemon Targaryen!
ADDAM KARMA IS REAL!
But now voices on the black council were raised to question Ser Addam’s loyalty. The dragonseeds Ulf White and Hugh Hammer had gone over to the enemy…but were they the only traitors in their midst?
[…]
Lord Bartimos Celtigar thought not. “Bastards are treacherous by nature,” he said. “It is in their blood. Betrayal comes as easily to a bastard as loyalty to trueborn men.” He urged Her Grace to have the two baseborn dragonriders seized immediately, before they too could join the enemy with their dragons. Others echoed his views, amongst them Ser Luthor Largent, Commander of her City Watch, and Ser Lorent Marbrand, Lord Commander of her Queensguard. Even the two White Harbor men, that fearsome knight Ser Medrick Manderly and his clever, corpulent brother Ser Torrhen, urged the queen to mistrust.
[…]
Then Queen Rhaenyra grew most wroth, Septon Eustace writes. In a voice as cold as ice, she commanded Ser Luthor Largent to take twenty gold cloaks to the Dragonpit and arrest Ser Addam Velaryon. “Question him sharply, and we will learn if he is true or false, beyond a doubt.”
Everyone on the Black Council met a terrible ending, one way or another.
Bartimos Celtigar:
Taken, the queen’s despised master of coin was bound to a post and tortured until he revealed where all his wealth was hidden. Then a tanner called Wat announced that his lordship had failed to pay his “cock tax,” and must yield his manhood to the Crown as forfeit.
Luthor Largent:
Even the fearsome Ser Luthor Largent could not escape the carnage. His sword torn from his grasp, Largent was pulled from his saddle, stabbed in the belly, and bludgeoned to death with a cobblestone, his helm and head so crushed that it was only by its size that his body was recognized when the corpse wagons came the next day.
Lorent Marbrand:
Ser Torrhen lost a quarter of his men fighting his way back to the Red Keep…yet escaped lightly compared to Ser Lorent Marbrand, who led a hundred knights and men-at-arms into Flea Bottom. Sixteen returned. Ser Lorent, Lord Commander of the Queensguard, was not amongst them.
Medrick Manderly:
When the disease crossed the Bite to White Harbor, the prayers of the septons and the potions of the maesters proved equally powerless against it. Thousands died, amongst them Lord Desmond Manderly. His splendid son Ser Medrick, the finest knight in the North, survived him by only four days before succumbing to the same affliction.
Torrhen Manderly:
Nor would he ever forgive the king for the brusque manner of his dismissal, or the way His Grace “murdered” the royal progress, whose abrupt end his lordship took for a deeply humiliating personal affront.
*death sentence pending*
Rhaenyra Targaryen:
She had fled King’s Landing in terror of her life, without so much as a coin. Despairing and fearful, Her Grace walked the castle battlements of Duskendale weeping, growing ever more grey and haggard. She could not sleep and would not eat.
Looks like there is justice in Westeros after all. 🥹
The Fall of Kings Landing
Upon seeing that resistance was hope-less, the Dowager Queen Alicent emerged from Maegor's Holdfast with her father, Ser Otto Hightower; Ser Tyland Lannister; and Lord Jasper Wylde the Ironrod (Lord Larys Strong was not with them. The master of whisperers had somehow contrived to disappear). Septon Eustace, a witness to what followed, tells us that Queen Alicent attempted to treat with her stepdaughter. "Let us together summon a great council, as the Old King did in days of old," said the Dowager Queen, "and lay the matter of succession before the lords of the realm." But Queen Rhaenyra rejected the proposal with scorn. "Do you mistake me for Mushroom?" she asked. "We both know how this council would rule." Then she bade her stepmother choose: yield or burn. Bowing her head in defeat, Queen Alicent surrendered the keys to the castle and ordered her knights and men-at-arms to lay down their swords. "The city is yours, Princess,"

Luthor Largent, Bold Jon Roxton, and Adrian Redfort have been cast, but still no Daeron
Could Helaena’s death have been murder? Possibly…but it seems unlikely Queen Rhaenyra was behind it. Helaena Targaryen was a broken creature who posed no threat to Her Grace. Nor do our sources speak of any special enmity between them. If Rhaenyra were intent on murder, surely it would have been the Dowager Queen Alicent flung down onto the spikes. Moreover, at the time of Queen Helaena’s death, we have abundant proof that Ser Luthor Largent, the purported killer, was eating with three hundred of his gold cloaks at the barracks by the Gate of the Gods.
Fire and Blood (George R. R. Martin)
I know these are only crumbs, and I do like weird bug-girl with dragon dreams from the show, but I'd love to see Helaena and Rhaenyra's relationship as fondness at least.
If they wanted a drama between two friends, who found themselves on opposing sides of a conflict, these would be much better choice than aging-up Alicent and ridding her of her ambition and personality.
Two sisters, one raised to hate the other and forced to marry her shitty brother to produce usurpers to her sister's claim. Seen only as a (annoyingly) talking womb.
The other forced to face sexism in slightly different ways- officially more than a breeding mare, yet hated and abused for it. Never respected as a male heir would be.
Another brother of theirs- sexist swine, fond of the first sister- the only woman (aside from his mother) he loves- kills the second's son, causing his beloved sister's child's murder in return...
You see?
It's not that hard!
Tangled family drama!
