Game of Thrones Season 6: Is Tyrion Lannister a Secret Targaryen?

The episode 2 of Game of Thrones titled “Home” fuelled another speculation (which is not new) and could even come true which claims that Tyrion Lannister is a secret Targaryen i.e he is actually a mad king’s son. He said to Missandei that dragons don’t do well in captivity, Aegon Targaryen conquered the entire Westeros spreading across miles (except Dorne of course) with three dragons as they laid waste to the mainland armies of other houses. She told Tyrion that dragons have’nt had a supper for quite a long time since Queen Daenerys left the city. He went there to see the dragons himself which shocked the audience, making his fans worried about his life. But he not only unchained them, he caresses them, told them how he longed for Dragons during his childhood and almost established a bond with them. They did’nt see him as a threat, instead, they displayed remarkable restraint while dealing with him. How can they not burn him to death? They are smart, powerful creatures who could sense a threat, but he did’nt come across as one.

 

He is officially shown to be the son of Tywin and Joanna Lannister. According to Ser Barristan, the Kingsguard of Aerys Targaryen, the Mad king wanted Joanna for years, at the wedding he made a drunken joke which implied he wanted to sleep with her, and later he took “liberties”. He may have fathered Tyrion with Joanna as he lusted for her and was the most powerful man in Westeros. Tywin has often expressed his disdain for Tyrion, he even said once “You are no son of mine”, this may be figurative as Joanna died giving birth to him. But it’s also possible that Tywin knows that he is actually not his son, as he literally disowned him. There is also a fan theory which suggests that Tyrion will ride the dragon.

There is also a fan theory which suggests that Tyrion will ride the dragon along with Daenerys as he has Targaryen blood, and together (along with Jon Snow) they would march to Westeros, defeat the white walkers and conquer the lands.
