Kind of feel sorry for Aegon… I think

I fully understand that he is at times incredibly cruel and what he did to dyana cannot be forgiven.

The greatness of the show is that it represents the multifaceted nature of both sides. While there is definitely evil committed, each character is unique and has their own story and morality.

Aegon:

He is emotionally neglected by both his parents. Growing up, he is an outright terrible person who derives pleasure from tormenting his own brother and abusing others. However, when he ascends the throne, it kind of seems like he is turning over a new leaf. He attempts to help the smallfolk and at least genuinely hears them out and tries to solve their problems. He tries to be a good father to Jahaerys, giving him the time and support he never received himself growing up. He tries to get involved in the war effort but finds himself constantly sidelined and belittled by the very people who conspired to place him on the throne. He finally has enough and decided to take action by entering battle himself on his dragon which may have been an unwise and rash decision. I find him at this point to be a tragic character and kind of feel sorry of him despite how much of a shitty person he is.
