Fighting your twin to the death is wild.

House of the Dragon S2E2. Man kills himself because he just killed his brother, even if he did the right thing he still killed his brother, slayed his own kin. He kills himself to avoid being a kinslayer, a terrible crime in Westeros.

Each time death comes near her you can see her soul leaving her bit by bit

He couldn't see a way forward after essentially killing the other half of himself.. heartbreaking.

Once princess shireen said "Brothers fight brothers" to stannis and now we understood what she meant by that.

Its the fact he was the first person to believe in her as queen. He evn stole the crown for her. 😢

i always wondered - was he apologizing for attempting to kill her, or apologizing for costing her one extra protector by killing himself.

My little brother died a year and a half ago, and I can't tell you how hard this scene hits. . .

I've always heard the old expression;
" I will fall upon my own sword"
I see it means su*cide

After watching this episode, or rather this scene. I understood what, "falling on your sword" meant. I always knew it was like a self sacrifice thing but never tried visualizing it.
But once I seen it I immediately knew and all made sense

The answer why he killed himself. They were born together. They will die together.
