Well it usually goes to the first born.

Jon is the first born of Rhaegar from a legitimate marriage with a noble house which certainly makes his claim more than Daenerys.

But Dany is Rheagars sister, and thead king was still alive when Rheagars died, so Dany would still be in the line of succession before Jon

She's also a girl, so no she would not.

Edit: I think the most surprising thing is that in their little epilogue review thing at the end, they didn't even mention the dragon scene.

Edit2: I was for some reason thinking Jon was the king's son...as mentioned below, Raegar wasn't king.

Ask me about Proposition 305


Do you like muskets?
A brief examination of some of the Game of Thrones and ASOIAF wikis tells me that Dany would, in fact, take precedence over Jon in the line of succession.

A king's sons take precedence over daughters (so youngest son before oldest daughter), but daughters would take precedence over grandchildren.

Succession doesn't bounce back up to Rhaegar's siblings until Rhaegar's children are wiped out. Which they were. And now they aren't.

I'm really looking forward to the awkward Dany/Sam meeting now. "I'm sorry about what happened to your father and brother, but it was necessary." "What happened to my father and brother?" Watch, he's going to be the one to kill her with that sword he stole where every other swinging dick on two continents has failed.

Bronn continues to be just the best.

Also, if this show has any underlying theme, it's that the legitimacy of your claim is irrelevant if you don't have the stones/horsepower to back it up. I hope that the most explosive secret in the seven kingdoms just never gets mentioned again, because Sam was too wrapped up in his own bullshit to listen to his wife.

:downs: I'm changing my answer. Dany would probably have the stronger claim as the daughter and sole surviving child of the king, over the grandson of the king. But Jon's claim would probably be stronger than Renly's which was basically "I'm pretty and nice!"

Nah, the kid is Jamie's but it's going to be a club-footed dwarf, as fate finally turns its attention to making GBS threads on Ceresi.

You weren't.

Also when he pulled out the hammer at his blacksmith shop I immediately thought back to when Rob was talking about caving in a dude's breastplate with his hammer.



I can't wait till HBO does the inevitable prequel showing Robert's Rebellion. If for that scene only.
