As the wedding ceremony between Daenerys and Khal Drogo takes place in Pentos, Daemon Targaryen, the brother of Daenerys and Viserys Targaryen, is in attendance. Daemon, being the rightful owner of the ancestral sword, Blackfyre, is unwilling to give it up to Viserys despite his demand for it. As a result, their disagreement leads to a violent altercation that leaves Viserys with a permanent scar, severing any trust he had in his brother. Shortly before the wedding proceedings, when Illyrio presents Daenerys with the dragon eggs, he pulls Daemon aside to speak with him privately, away from his siblings, indicating that he has something important to discuss with him.
