We all know how different Westeros would be if Rhaenyra were born a man. Now we explore if in this picture-perfect world, Daemon was born a woman. Somethings are better, many things are much worse and there’s a marked shift in the paradigm of important themes in the would-have-been narrative. Will the dragons dance and die? Which bloodline will prevail? Will the events of this civil war prove that women should be given the reins of power, or will it forever be used to condemn those who reach for what is beyond their station?
