Iceberghill:
This begins the Dance of Dragons and the first of many of these awe-inspiring and incredibly expensive aerial dragon battles. It’s really sad to see Rhaenys the Queen Who Never Was fall in battle especially since she could have escaped.
I even feel a little bit bad for Aegon who, while not a good king or a particularly good person, has suffered from a rather rotten upbringing, spoiled and neglected in ways only princes and princesses can be.


Episode rating 10/10

I like people who watch movies and try to connect things to real life situations.

The funny thing however is Aegon wasn't the neglected son. Aemond is, the reason why he lies with with really old whores and drinks their breast milk. grin

Aegon was the over-pampered, over protected brat who when things get awry doesn't know how t act and ends ups throwing tantrums.
In his bid to get himself noticed again being a King, he got himself killed..

Emisco1:


from the look of things, she was about escaping, then change her mind. she knew bringing Daemond, Rhaenery and her husband to war is by sacrifice. she is experience to know she can't fight veghar on land( seems its weakness is air battle). i guess that's how Daemond will kill Veghar.

but if the king survive, Aemond will have to explain why he release fire on the dragon( his brother)

Please can we desist from bringing the storyline of the books into this thread. Spoils the series for non-book readers..

Let's stick to watch we watched each episode.
People are allowed to have theories but to bring major spoilers like this is not appropriate..

Can u imagine d useless GREEN showing dragon head throughout d city , dis stuff is pure madness dragon are targaryen sigil they didnt joke with it

Imagine showing Yr biggest weapon dat they are not vulnerable dat they can be killed , d green are not true targaryen mehn , true targaryen will not do dat mtchwww..

D Green see d dragon as weapon to use unlike d Black they care about dem dats why they are more bonded to there dragon...

How else could they have proved they killed Rhaenys?.. 😄
Dragons are sigils don't mean Targareyens on opposite sides can't killed themselves with Dragons.
Displaying this head also adds a tactical advantage. It tells the houses fighting for the greens they have the stronger Dragon and are more likely to win the war.

These houses will therefore fight harder and commit more men and supplies to the war effort..

I had to watch it again, you were right. He was actually returning the sword to the sheath. But why live him half dead when the intention was to kill him initially? If Aegon doesn't lose his memory, he could charge Aemond for treason.

go and read the wiki fanpage of game of thrones and you will see the storyline of every character even since the time of Aegon the conqueror to the time of John Snow the promised prince of the song of fire and ice. It's not ruining the tread but just knowing the intended plot. The films tends to add extra scrips and visuals experience

Oga, many of us have read the books and also follow the Wiki pages. You are spoiling the thread by bringing in those stories which are quite different from what we see on screen.

He likely did. Though he's probably going to be severely or even permanently injured.

They haven't been following the books script for script sha But was Aemond trying to finish off his brother Aegon just before Cole came? It seems Aemond has eye for the throne just like Deamond too. Omo I can't wait for episode 5.

🚫🚫 SPOILER ‼️‼️

How Vhagar Died?

After the death of King Aegon, Vhagar ignited the pyre that the Conqueror was placed upon. After his successor Aenys named his son Prince Aegon the Prince of Dragonstone, Visenya left in a fury on her dragon. Apparently, as Vhagar flew off, the moon turned red as blood. When Aenys eventually died, Visenya flew Vhagar to Pentos to collect her son Maegor, and proclaim him king. Maegor, who at this point flew Balerion himself, joined his mother flying back to King's Landing, which set off riots throughout the city from terrified citizens.

Soon enough, Maegor's reign proved almost as bloody as the War of Conquest - throughout said reign, Visenya would use Vhagar to obliterate the keeps of several houses. During Maegor's war against the Faith Militant, Vhagar would have been used to shatter Oldtown itself if the High Septon hadn't mysteriously died before this could happen.

Visenya eventually died, leaving Vhagar riderless. This would remain so until late into the reign of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen, where Laena Velaryon, second wife of Prince Daemon Targaryen, would tame Vhagar. She flew the great dragon frequently, often in the company of Daemon and their niece Rhaenyra. Laena died in 120 AC, apparently while trying to reach Vhagar in her final hour to take to the skies one last time, but wasn't strong enough. After the lady's death, Vhagar was once again riderless.

However, the bold but dragonless Prince Aemond Targaryen, second son of King Viserys I Targaryen, dared to approach Vhagar. He was briefly halted by his nephew Prince Joffrey, but managed to mount the dragon anyway. Vhagar roared, broke her chains and flew twice around Driftmark before landing. When Aemond dismounted he was confronted by Joffrey's brothers Jacaerys and Lucerys. A fight ensued, in which Aemond lost an eye. However, he would later view an eye as an apt price to pay for such a formidable dragon.

Aemond used Vhagar to wreak destruction during the Dance of the Dragons. The huge dragon killed Prince Lucerys Velaryon and his dragon Arrax, that was 5 times smaller, during the dance of Shipbreaker Bay. Despite Arrax being faster, a terrible storm that day caused him to slow down a lot, and both dragon and rider were easy prey for Aemond and Vhagar.

Next Vhagar and Aemond worked together with Aegon II and his dragon Sunfyre, the Golden, to kill Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, the Queen who Never Was, and her dragon Meleys, the Red Queen, during the Battle of Rook's Nest. While Meley could have defeated Vhagar alone, she couldn't defeat both dragons, and was killed alongside her rider. After the fight, only Vhagar remained relatively unharmed, its partner Sunfyre was greatly injured, alongside King Aegon II.

Aemond took Vhagar to ravage the Riverlands alongside Lord Commander Ser Criston Cole, but Aemond left the army without a dragon as he wanted to cause destruction on his own, this in the end provoked the death of Cole. Dragon and rider remained destroying the Riverlands for many months until they were challenged by Prince Daemon Targaryen and his dragon Caraxes, the Blood Wyrm, to a fight in Harrenhal, as Daemon wanted revenge for the murder of his stepson Lucerys.

They waited for thirteen days at the shores of the God's Eye, until Aemond and Vhagar arrived at the fourteenth. During the fight that followed between them, Daemon jumped from Caraxes in mid air, and killed Aemond by stabbing him in the eye with Dark Sister. Both dragons crashed in mid air and fell to the lake, Vhagar drowned, Caraxes managed to swim ashore, and died sometime later, while the body of Daemon was never found. The bodies of Vhagar and her rider weren't recovered until some years after the war, the body of Aemond was still strapped to his chair, with Dark Sister in his eye. At the time of her death, Vhagar was one hundred and eighty-one years old, the mightiest dragon at the disposal of King Aegon II Targaryen and his greens, the oldest beast on either side, and the last surviving veteran of Aegon the Conqueror's subjugation of Westeros.

Her skull can be found at the Red Keep in King's Landing.
