⚫️ HOTD 🟢 | Aemond Targaryen

It is 170 years before the reign of The Mad King, and the conquest of Queen Daenerys Targaryen.

Westeros was torn apart by a series of bloody battles and in just three years the crown would change hands five times. Tens of thousands were slaughtered or burned by dragon fire. It was truly one of the most turbulent, and violent periods in Westerosi history. It is best known as, The Dance of Dragons.

The bloodshed began when a bitter power struggle erupted between the noble House of Targaryen. King Viserys, first of his name, had no sons with his wife through the many years of trying for an heir, so when his Queen had died during childbirth, he appointed his only living child as his heir and successor, a daughter.

But years later the King remarried, and his new Queen, Allicent Hightower gave him a son, three son's actually. But the feeble and weak King refused to change his line of succession. He didn't even notice how his court had split into two rival factions.

There was The Green Faction led by Queen Alicent and her father, Otto Hightower. Then there was The Black Faction led by Rhaenyra Targaryen and her uncle and husband Daemon Targaryen. Both Factions fought for control over the most power position in all of Westeros, The Iron Throne.
