House of the DragonHouse of the Dragon is an American fantasy drama television series created by George R. R. Martin and Ryan Condal for HBO. A prequel to Game of Thrones (2011–2019), it is the second series in the A Song of Ice and Fire franchise. Condal and Miguel Sapochnik served as the showrunners for the first season.https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › House_of_the_Dragon
At the age of ten, Aemond lost his right eye during a fight with his nephew Lucerys Velaryon. Subsequently Aemond took to putting a sapphire in place of the missing eye.
Yes, Aemond Bedazzled His Eye Socket in the House of the Dragon Finale. The biggest drama queen in the seven kingdoms just served up a chilling 'Game of Thrones' easter egg.
Instead, Aemond's blue eye is a sapphire that he has used to replace his lost eyeball (it's also his personal sigil in the opening credits).
The Sapphire represents Aemond's personal sigil
The Sapphire jewel that was placed in Prince Aemond's socket represents his personal sigil in House of the Dragon, after he lost his left eye in a fight with Prince Lucerys as children.
As we know, Vhagar is the last surviving dragon of Aegon the Conqueror's Conquest of Westeros. She was ridden by Visenya Targaryen, and, after her first rider's death, she spent 29 years by herself, with no one mounting her.
In fact, the Night King was around before Aegon I Targaryen conquered Westeros. Another reason fans can be sure that Aemond Targaryen is not the Night King is that his body had been found after the Dance of the Dragons.
Appearance and Character
Ewan Mitchell as Aemond in House of the Dragon. At birth, Aemond was said to be half the size his older brother, Aegon, had been, though he was twice as fierce. At the age of ten, Aemond lost his right eye during a fight with his nephew Lucerys Velaryon.
Note that not all Targaryens have purple eyes: Queen Alysanne Targaryen's eyes were clear blue, and Prince Valarr Targaryen's eyes were also blue. Children of Targaryen/non-Targaryen marriages may also have eyes of a non-Valyrian color. For example, Prince Baelor, whose mother was Myriah Martell, had brown eyes.
Born on Dragonstone before Aegon conquered Westeros, Vhagar is the largest dragon alive and is about 181 years old. During House of the Dragon, she is thought to be around the size Balerion was during Aegon's Conquest, giving a decisive advantage to any army.
You'll recall that Lucerys Valeryon whipped his uncle's left eye out after Aemond pinched a dragon for himself, and we've not seen what might be hiding under there since the time jump halfway through the season.
The moment happens in season 3, episode 4, “And Now His Watch Is Ended,” when Joffrey Lannister is chilling with Margaery Tyrell and giddily explains, “Rhaenyra Targaryen was murdered by her brother, or rather, his dragon. It ate her while her son watched. What's left of her is buried in the crypts right down there.”
Most likely not. Aemond is a human and of Targaryen's blood, which automatically makes him an enemy of White Walkers. But his eye might indeed serve as a reminder about Aegon the Conqueror's prophecy, which guides the actions of at least two characters of the show – King Viserys and Queen Rhaenyra.
Aegon would live humbly, but Duncan thought it would make Aegon a better man than his brothers, Aerion and Daeron. Thus, Aegon served as a squire to the Duncan under his nickname "Egg".
King Aegon V Targaryen, [N 2] also called Aegon the Unlikely and affectionately known as Egg, was the fifteenth king of the Targaryen dynasty to rule the Seven Kingdoms.
Vhagar, almost two centuries old and the strongest dragon alive, took a fatal bite out of Arrax, killing him and his young rider Prince Lucerys "Luke" Velaryon (Elliot Grihault).
In fact, Martin outright said as much during a Q&A back in 1999, calling the idea that Targaryens were magically immune to fire a “common misconception.” “TARGARYENS ARE NOT IMMUNE TO FIRE!” the author emphatically stated. “The birth of Dany's dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle.
After decades of fan theories and mysterious clues dropped on HBO's "Game of Thrones," the series revealed Jon Snow to be the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. That means Daenerys Targaryen is Jon Snow's aunt.
Daeron I Targaryen, known as the Young Dragon, was the eldest son of King Aegon III Targaryen and Queen Daenaera Velaryon, and the eighth Targaryen king to sit the Iron Throne. He ascended to the throne at the age of fourteen and is famous for invading Dorne, which he wrote about in his The Conquest of Dorne.
Simply put, unlike his older brother, Aemond didn't properly bond with a dragon egg when he was a baby. Therefore a dragon meant for him never hatched and connected with him.
According to Old Nan, the Night's King may in fact be (hold on to your small clothes) a Stark! If that isn't enough, legend has it that the Night's King was not just any Stark, he was King Brandon Stark's brother—or possibly Brandon Stark himself!
Soon after being widowed, Daemon and Rhaenyra marry each other in secret when he is 39 years old, and she is 23. Their marriage causes a huge scandal at court and another rift between Daemon and Viserys, but it is eventually accepted. The couple has two sons together, Aegon and Viserys.
Simply put: no, the Night King is not a Targaryen, as poetic as it would have been for Jon / Aegon and Daenerys to have to face off against their many-greats-grandfather.
