Do people really think Daemon would let Rhaenyra’s bastard ascend the throne?

The Dance of Dragons was inevitable. Even if Rhaenyra had won with all her children still alive, does anyone actually believe Daemon would allow Jacaerys to remain as the heir? Saying yes is pure stupidity. There is no way Daemon would let Rhaenyra’s bastards stay in line for the throne. He would either do what he did with Blood & Cheese or take matters into his own hands.

As a reader, future history shows us what happens when bastards challenge legitimate heirs. The Blackfyre rebellions didn’t arise out of nowhere. This further demonstrates how flawed the Blacks' cause was from the start. Even if they had won without any casualties, another war would soon follow.
