Main Events

S1 E10 / 132AC Coronation of Rhaenyra ▲

Following the Green faction’s coup in 132 AC, Princess Rhaenys escaped to Dragonstone, where she alerted Crown Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen of both her father King Viserys’s death and of the council’s proclamation of Aegon II as king. After the shock caused Rhaenyra to miscarry, a funeral was held for her stillborn daughter, at which Rhaenyra’s husband Daemon crowned her as queen with the support of the lords loyal to her—the Black faction. When Ser Otto Hightower, now Hand of Aegon II, later arrived with terms allowing Rhaenyra to keep her titles in return for her concession, he was driven off by Daemon. see external link

S1 E10 / 132AC Fight above Shipbreaker Bay ▲

To secure allies in her war with the Green faction, Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen sent her son Jacaerys to treat with Lady Jeyne Arryn of the Eyrie and Lord Cregan Stark of Winterfell while her younger son Lucerys was dispatched to treat with Lord Borros Baratheon of Storm’s End. Arriving in Storm’s End on his dragon Arrax, Lucerys was shocked to discover his rival Prince Aemond already there and Borros disposed to support Aegon II in return for Aemond’s marriage to his daughter. Disappointed, Lucerys left for Dragonstone on Arrax with Aemond in pursuit on his own dragon Vhagar. Although Aemond intended merely to harass Lucerys, Arrax’s attempts to defend himself enraged the much larger Vhagar, who killed both Arrax and Lucerys with a single bite. This ‘kinslaying’ by Aemond ended any chance of peace between the Greens and the Blacks. see external link
