How will Mysaria the White Worm start working for Princess Rhaenyra?

House of the Dragon episode 8 had a major reveal during its final moments. He showed the audience how Mysaria aka the White Worm had infiltrated even the Red Keep with his vast network of spies. Alice’s maid or lady-in-waiting Talya was one of those informants who could be seen recounting her findings to Lady Mysaria. Mysaria was last seen making a deal with Ser Otto Hightower. It was then that she informed him of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s Banter in Silk Street in exchange for money. In fact, even in The House of the Dragon episode 9, Mysaria and Ser Otto help each other. So the question is, how does Mysaria become the whisperer’s mistress for Princess Rhaenyra?

Lady Mysaria delivers Aegon to Ser Otto Hightower

House of the Dragon episode 9 witnessed the The Green Council conspires to have Aegon II Targaryen sit on the Iron Throne. However, amidst all the chaos following the death of King Viserys, Aegon was nowhere to be found. His sworn protector, Ser Erryk Cargyll, searched the entire Red Keep and reported that Aegon had left. Eventually a search ensued for Aegon which included the brothers Erryk and Arryk and Ser Criston along with Aemond. The Cargyll twins eventually found his whereabouts. This led us to Otto Hightower confronting the White Worm aka Lady Mysaria as to where she kept Aegon. Mysaria gives her the information in exchange for some favors she wanted. She even reminds Otto that her information and mercy puts Aegon on the throne. So that told us that she’s allied with the greens.

Lord Larys Strong informs Queen Alicent of the White Worm

Later in the episode, Lord Larys Strong somehow manages to uncover Mysaria’s spy network. She informs Queen Alicent that her own servant Talya was an informant to the White Worm and essentially betrayed the Queen. Here they even plot to eliminate the White Worm and his web of spies. Lord Larys is the one who suggests dealing with the very root of the problem alias Lady Mysaria. We know his ways well now, so it looks like he’s planning to orchestrate his murder. Therefore, Mysaria could end any alliance with the greens and side with the blacks.

How does she end up as the whisperer mistress for Princess Rhaenyra?

Lady Mysaria eventually becomes mistress of the whisperers for Rhaenyra. In fact, she is a very important black ally in Fire and Blood. She often advises Rhaenyra in serious matters and her opinion is respected. So the question is when and how does it go from green to black. Well, first of all, Lady Mysaria doesn’t have a real alliance. She gives her information to the highest bidder and to those who can reciprocate. She is simply looking for powerful people who can help bring about the change she wants. Now that Alicent and Lord Larys will be after her and her business, it seems obvious that she will ask the blacks for help. Any wise king or queen would understand how useful and resourceful Mysaria is and I hope Rhaenyra too. This way, Mysaria could finally become Princess Rhaenyra’s whisperer mistress in House of the Dragon.
