(Spoilers Extended) The removal of Nettles was definitely a odd choice

Since Nettles plotline has been removed and absorbed into Rheana and Wulf.Its interesting to figure out how their going to drive the wedge between Deamon and Rheynera later on in the show. Given nettles importance to Deamon and his refusal to turn her over. What will make him abandon the cause and challenge Aemond?

There are other present effects we can notice in the current show that can be attributed to nettles absence. Such alot of the fluff could've been removed and focused on a unique perspective away from the two sides of the nobility in the greens and blacks.One could argue Hugh is ment to represent the suffering of the small folk. And he certainly does with his losses in Kingslanding with his family. However he acknowledges openly a direct line to the family in who his father was. Unlike Nettles who's rather ambiguous all things considered.

But the Dragon seed taming process did fell very rushed compared to the books. Nettles was clever and managed to tamd Sheep stealer over time and attrition .Season 2 felt oddly all over the place in dragon taminh even having Seasmoke go find his rider.Id wager budget played a role in this.

With the upcoming season, the focus on nettles being shocked at the losses during the battle of the gullet will be lost as well.Contrasting her two fellow dragon seeds. Who enjoyed in gaining glory from the battle. This could be shifted to another dragon rider of course in the show. But the overall presentation does leave alot to be desired.
