8 Reasons Why Maleficent And Daenerys Targaryen Are Basically The Same Person
5. They Both Really Dislike The Monarchy
Unimpressed with not receiving an invite to Princess Auroras birthday celebration/christening thing, Maleficent crashes the party, throws King Stefan and Queen Leah shade then curses their newborn baby. No big deal. Can you imagine that happening to Prince William and Kate Middleton? Nah, theyd probably have far more capable security guards. And who could curse Prince George? Daenerys has one or two reasons to not be the biggest fan of the ruling house of Westeros (i.e. House Baratheon.) She is the last living offspring of the Targaryen family, the Westeros-ruling dynasty that was usurped by Robert Baratheon. Her eldest brother (Rhaegar Targaryen) was murdered by the hands of Robert Baratheon. Soon after, her crazy Mad King father (Aerys II Targaryen) was betrayed and murdered by Jaime Lannister, a member of his own Kingsguard. Dany firmly believes that she is the true ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and really, who can blame her?
