What was the secret Viserys told Rhaenyra?

What is the prophecy? In the first episode, King Viserys tells his daughter Princess Rhaenyra about a prophecy that says the end of men is coming. Let’s look at what Viserys says: Our histories say Aegon looked across the Blackwater from Dragonstone and saw a rich land ripe for the capture. But he wasn’t just ambitious. It was just a dream. Aegon foresaw the end of the world of men. Aegon refers to Aegon the Conqueror, the first Lord of the Seven Kingdoms in Westeros. He founded the Targaryen dynasty in Westeros, but also wanted to unify the land against a common enemy. His prophecy should not be ignored because a Targaryen, Daenys the Dreamer, had a correct dream of Valyria’s destruction by fire. Twelve years later, Valyria, the capital of the Valyrian Freehold, a large civilization in Essos ruled by dragonriders, was destroyed by an unexplained cataclysm.

It begins with a terrible winter wind from the north. Aegon saw darkness riding on the winds. And whatever is inside will destroy the world. When the Great Winter comes, Rhaenyra, all of Westeros must fight it. If the world is to survive, a Targaryen must sit on the Iron Throne. A king or queen who can unite the realm against the cold and dark. Aegon called his dream The Song of Ice and Fire.

In the fourth episode of House of the Dragon, Viserys realizes that the demon’s goal in seducing Rhaenyra was to get closer to the Iron Throne. But House of the Dragon has shown this isn’t true. Daemon doesn’t want the Iron Throne. He doesn’t know what to do with power. He returned from the Stepstones as King of the Narrow Sea but handed his crown to Viserys. He wants power and respect, but not necessarily as the next King of Westeros. Daemon wants respect from his brother and a position where he can stand beside Viserys without being undermined. Viserys would have to keep his brother next to him and help him become king. Daemon and Rhaenyra get married in House of the Dragon. Rhaenyra will marry Laenor Velaryon, who will have three sons.
