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 War Of Two Queens || Rheanyra & Alicent [BEING REWRITTEN & EDITED] by Iam_LewaKulture
5 parts Ongoing Mature
"You are the bane of my existence. 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 the truth. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman. You're the one, Rheanyra. Alicent was just a mere distraction. Tis you I want by side. My wife. Mine. My Queen." ~ King Naegon I Targaryen "I always knew we were meant to burn together with fire and blood, the dead are scorched with taste of passion, they do not stagger for blind love or some lost mirage, but I will stand with you between the heavens and the earth, I will tell you where you are." ~ Queen Rheanyra Targaryen "Why do you always favour her as if I don't exist! I am your wife! The mother of your children, and yet you place her above everything else! And now her son has taken Aemond's eye, and to even that, she feels entitled! And all you say is make up for peace? No! I don't want peace Naegon! I want Aegon's eye in return! A son for a son!" ~ Queen Alicent Hightower The Tale Of Two Queens is a labyrinth. All it took was favorism of Naegon, followed by his unexpected favouritism to first wife Queen Rheanyra, her children and his grandchildren, caused his second wife, Queen Alicent to be envious with indecisiveness, leading her jealousy to stir chaos amongst the Greens themselves. Alicent constantly tries to put her bloodline ahead of Rheanyra's offsprings, the strife between the two women is a ferocious factor leading to the game of thrones. After the suspicious death (murder) of the King Naegon, the House of the Dragon fight for the claim of the iron throne, thereby causing a shift of the wing, a division of civil war in the realm which also includes political alliances, especially the patriarchy and misogyny between the Greens and Blacks, which led to the Dance of the Dragons.

"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. I've seen your kindness and your strength. 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 "We are Bene Vesserit. We don't Hope. We plan" ~ Nimueh Gaius. THE DRAGON'S HEART IS MINE explores the lives of two best friends torn apart by the men they love and the political forces that shape their destinies. Set against the backdrop of the Greens and the Blacks, the story delves into the civil war that divides Westeros, a war ignited by two siblings grappling with marriage, love, and ambition. Their shared history lies at the heart of the Targaryen dynasty and forms the foundation of House of the Dragon. King Viserys' decision to marry Geralt to Alicent Hightower and Prince Daemon's forbidden attraction to Princess Rhaenyra serve as the catalysts for the events that forever alter their lives. Each character's understanding of marriage and love varies greatly, creating a ripple effect of choices and consequences. These differences ultimately lead to the civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons, leaving a lasting and unforgettable mark on Westeros. Lewa_K ©2024

"The only thing that could tear down the house of the dragon was itself." Long ago, the Old King Jaehaerys I Targaryen held a council where all of the great lords of the Seven Kingdoms were summoned. There, they would choose which one will inherit the Iron Throne: the Princess Rhaenys, daughter of Prince Aemon and Lady Jocelyn Baratheon, or Prince Viserys, son of Prince Baelon and his sister-wife, Princess Alyssa. Through a vote the realm decided Viserys would be named Prince of Dragonstone. No woman would sit on the Iron Throne. Yet, the now King Viserys I Targaryen appointed his daughter, Rhaenyra Targaryen as his heir. The Seven Kingdoms had already rejected a woman, they would do it again. When the King remarried, his wife gave him a son, his council advised him to name him heir but he never did. The King didn't know then he would lead his realm to a war remembered as the Dance of Dragons.
