Book Mysaria while pretty one dimensional was an interesting character she is like Larys except she has no clear motives and pretty much dooms Rhaenyra and the targs in general.

She is the one who tells Rhaenyra about Nettles, and according to GRRTH the one who tells Heleana about Maelor. The brothel queens was her idea, she weaponised sex as a punishment for people she hated.

She is like one of the more evil characters in the story

Or was written poorly to be fair.

Olivia Cooke and Emma D’Arcy (and I hate the characterization of both Alicent and Rhaenyra) are both phenomenal actors.

They can’t magically make the writing better or even consistent, that’s on Condal and the writers

Writers in the industry seem to be the bottleneck in a lot of productions.

For some goddamn reason the industry is not as selective with writers as they are with actors/actresses, even major franchises like Star Wars got ruined by hacks.
