"The Painted Table had been carved and decorated at Lord Aegon's command; a massive slab of wood, some fifty feet long, carved in the shape of Westeros, and painted to show all the woods and rivers and towns and castles of the Seven Kingdoms."

“Fire & Blood” by George RR Martin

"When a Targaryen is born, the gods flip a coin. One side greatness, the other madness" 🔥

Thanks to @maggie-stormborn for this amazing commission about Targaryens (again✨).

After months of cosmic emptiness, frustration, failed attempts... I finally had the opportunity to dedicate myself to work again. I'm very happy with the result. Maggie's idea was slightly different but she immediately accepted my suggestion (and for that I thank her again).

From left to right: Rhaella, Rhaegar, Viserys, Aerys and Daenerys in the center, balancing on a coin. Around her, obviously, her three dragons.

🔥🔥🔥

something about maestor aemon (after my honorable mention to maester luwin too) living his entire life secluded and explaining to jon how as part of watch you leave so much behind and dont get dragged in wars of rich petty lords. something about jon not knowing yet he was another alive targaryen- abandoned (ofc but he chose his life on wall too), refused the crown, watched and heard ravens fly and arrive all bridging forlorn damage and news of destruction about exiled and deaths of his fellow house members, something about him seeing every last targaryen die too whilst all he can do was to see the news, and continue working for the Wall, for the people, all while losing his sight even. something about him makes me sick with grief there left alone as a member of the most glorious and longstanding house in westeros. something about when maestor aemon says, that

"dragons,... sam! they were grief and glory of my house"

this statement in itself carries so much pain and remembrance of his days and how every almost every not if all, targaryens post dance era wanted dragons, the psychological effect hence or anguish associated with not having dragons is something that makes me so sad about them. Aegon the 3rd starting from him to someone paranoid and mad like aerys even - wanted to hatch dragons. (until dany, literally a young teenager the last of house targaryen as far as known to ppl performed her blood magic ritual and hatched the impossible- hatched what no one could - brought magic to world - established her domain as defined as the blood of the true last dragon) Something about aemon also sick and at last moments of his life during voyage with Sam when he said

"I see them in my dreams, Sam. I see a red star bleeding in the sky. I still remember red. I see their shadows on the snow, hear the crack of leathern wings, feel their hot breath. My brothers dreamed of dragons too, and the dreams killed them, every one. Sam, we tremble on the cusp of half-remembered prophecies, of wonders and terrors that no man now living could hope to comprehend ... or "

At the last moments of his life even aemon targaryen only truly thought about his own house and life and people too. How he casually sees his ancestors mind u the same ancestors too who appeared in dream of dany in AGOT, telling her to come towards them and fly and then she did flied in the end. I think the Targs remembering their members and family with special specific emphasis on their dragons - their symbol, their pride, their companion, is exceedingly beautiful and in itself a very big yearning.

Back to original post, about maester aemon when he tells jon, " kill the boy" and our duty and all we will hear are words and winds,,, and they will bring you the worst messages and news about your family and people but you have to be steadfast and remain resolute. Something about aemon seeing all his brothers uncles on the throne, but he was far and deserted and alone, and his name and titles might be forgotten but the fire burnt in him like every other targaryen, lastly when aemon said, the prince that was promised could be an error, how a man who has never met or seen dany just explains to sam on his deathbed, something about him asserting that dany needs councils, she is our last hope, she must be protected and counseled.

Something about him not even dying on the Wall but in the middle of sea alone yet with Sam and others, hearing about dragons in his last moments too even.

"He could have been a king himself, but when they offered him the crown he told them they should give it to his younger brother. How many men would do that? He was the blood of the dragon, but now his fire has gone out. He was Aemon Targaryen. And now his watch is ended.[1]"
