The War of heirs or Dance of the Dragons was a civil war during Targaryen rule of the Seven Kingdoms. A war of succession between Aegon II and Rhaenyra over their father Viserys I's throne, the war was fought from 130 AC to 132 AC. Dragon for Dragon Aegon's claim was based on the fact that he was the first born male of King Viserys while Rhaenyra's claim was based on the fact that Viserys had named her heir to Dragonstone and the Iron Throne and that King had supported this decision until his last breath.

The birth of Rhaenyra's three daughters seemed to ease tensions, Visenya II Targaryen, first born, heir to the queen, pearl of the kingdom and ward of King Viserys. She was loved by everyone, from Queen Alice who voted for her and from Prince Aemond for whom she represented a debt in exchange for her eye. The princess had taken everything from her father Prince Daemon Targaryen, unstable and protective of her family.
Aemma II, the rebel princess, had everything her mother valued, she was the first female swordsman in Westeros, promised to Aegon (crazy in love with the princess) she had been sent by Visenya and daemon to sit on the green councils and monitor them, she had been called "black spy" during the dance.
Lyanna Targaryen, the People's Princess. She loved living in the lower world, abandoned herself to royal tasks and offered her possessions to the people, which had been a great advantage during the dance, she had been promised to Lord Cregan Stark.
For several years everything seemed to be going well, but in 129 Ac, the death of Ser Harwin Strong at the hands of Lord Gwayne Hightower deteriorated the relationship between green and black.
Gwayne was executed for treason by Visenya and Aegon with the help of Otto and Larys Strong usurped the throne. The dance took hold and the War of the Heirs began with the death of Prince Lucerys Targaryen.

"The dream...it was clearer than a memory. And I heard the sound of thundering hooves, splintering shields and ringing swords. And I placed my heir upon the Iron Throne, and all the dragons roared as one." ~ King Viserys Targaryen "If I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all. But when I say 'I love you', it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman. You're the one, Alicent. ~ Geralt Targaryen "Brother, if you're named heir and I your Princess Consort, your claim would not be so easily challenged. The Velaryons are of the sea. But you and I are made of fire We have always been meant to burn together." ~ Rheanyra Targaryen "Where is duty? Where is sacrifice? It's trampled under your pretty foot again." ~ Alicent Hightower "Think for yourself. It'll save you a lifetime of heartbreak." ~ Yennefer Martell "Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did." ~Daemon Targaryen The Dragon's Heart Is Mine tells the tale of two best friends torn apart by men in their lives. It also includes their political alliances and especially the civil war between the Greens and Blacks. The war between two siblings, torn between marriage and love, however, their history forms the core of House of The Dragon. Viserys' choice for Geralt to marry Alicent Hightower and Daemon's attraction to Rhaenyra instigated most of the events that shaped their lives forever. Every character's ideas of marital unions and love are vastly different from each other, giving rise to insightful and memorable impact, thereby causing a division of civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons.

𝑽𝑰 𝑬𝑻 𝑨𝑵𝑰𝑴𝑶 | 𝒃𝒚 𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒕𝒉 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒈𝒆 ___ For centuries the dance of dragons was told as a bedtime story to children or a passing joke between friends. Or even a warning forboding the gruesome conflicts within the once mighty Targaryen family. But that wasn't the only story that was told. King Aegon II Targaryen was not just the usurper, but a man who loved his wife. A father who loved his children. And a boy who fell in love with the girl who broke his nose.
