House of the Dragon: The Most Shocking Death Won't Be Shown On TV! What Happened To Aerea Targaryen?

Ойын-сауық

Welcome back for another Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, A Song of Ice and Fire, and Fire and Blood video. In this video, I will be reading a few pages from George R.R. Martin's most recent book, Fire and Blood. What happened to Aerea Targaryen has to be one of the most shocking and mysterious events in all of A Song of Ice and Fire. There are many different theories surrounding Princess Aerea Targaryen's death, but no one really knows what happened... Check out the video, and let me know what you think down below. Thanks for watching!

    I have a theory. In short, Aerea was likely surviving on the scraps that balerion left her, since we know she survived a year with him. The things he fed on likely had parasites that would have normally infected dragons. The worms inside her were parasites meant to inhabit dragons and not humans, and eventually she was so full of them that it killed her.

    I believe Balerion took her to Valyria, and she probably fell off into the infested waters, where those creatures hosted inside her body. The Black Dread scooped her up, but was attacked himself, in the process. He flew her back to Kings Landing, as fast, as he could, but it was too late and the Fireworms had already devoured her, from the inside. Horrible 😱

    Valyrians were powerful mages. They used magic for literally everything. My assumption is that they pretty much over-saturated the entire area with magical energies. These energies tore apart the Valyrian peninsula and left it a daemon-infested wasteland. Baleryon might have been forced to land by a daemon powerful enough to injure him and while he battled the daemon, lesser ones infested Aerea as parasites. They essentially used her body to feed on during the earliest stadium of growth (akin to the emerald wasp larvae, which hatch from eggs laid into a paralyzed cockroach, which is then eaten alive from the inside by the larvae). The closest inhabited city to the former Freehold is Mantarys, and its population is suffering from severe disfigurements and mutations, very likely caused by the still lingering magic energies which manifested as the Doom and obliterated Valyria.

    Any theory about firewyrms infesting her body because Targaryens are the closest things to dragons that a human can be. There's gotta be a connection there somewhere.

    @@ginaflynn910 Princess Aerea has a younger, identical twin sister, Rhaella Targaryen. The theory goes that the two princesses switched places after Aerea had visited her, as her personality seemingly did a 180 degree turn over night. Princess Aerea, as a young child, was shy and timid. She was quick to cry and often wet the bed. She was frightened of horses, boys with loud voices, men with beards and dancing and was absolutely terrified of dragons. Her sister, Rhaella on the other hand was her complete opposite. She was lively, bold, wilful, quick-witted and adventurous, and was a terror to her septal. She loved dogs, horses and dragons. Then seemingly overnight, following the coronation of their uncle Jaehaerys at Oldtown, both girls personalities changed. Rhaella became quieter, more obedient and devoted her time to prayer and study. Aerea, on the other hand, became lively, bold, adventurous, disobedient, and rude and grew to love animals. The sudden change in personalities led to rumours that the girls had swapped places. That's what they're talking about.

If Valyria is where Balerian was originally from, who or what there would hate them so much as to injure and try to kill him? It's said that other entities or creatures also lived there, most assuredly people who did black magic. I don't think what happened to them was by accident, someone or some thing did this to them. For what purpose or reason, I don't know. Did they know who she was and put the fireworms in her on purpose, in hopes that they would attack other targaryens? Or did they not know who she was and did this as a form of punishment for something she said or did? And then Balerion tried to defend her and was attacked. We hadn't heard about these fireworms since. No other magic user that we've heard of ever brought them for again. It could have been a form of revenge or retaliation against the Targaryens. Because it's such a mystery, it's an interesting story that I think actually should be told in live action.

    I think Balerion was most likely returning to his birthplace... someting all dragons of old and "wild" seems to do along their lives. When they are allowed to live outside captivity they seem to go on long travels either alone, or with someone, as we see with Drogon himself. He probably didn't mean to carry this rider, yet Dragons are very human like in their thoughts and intelligence and wont abandon a rider they have bonded with for one reason or another. He had to keep her safe as he possibly could I guess. He came back to possibly Asshai'i, where magic and bloodrights and scarifice of ones own self is all that belongs. There is no children in Asshai'i. None. There is no sunlight. No sounds of life. "Inhabitants" walk around alone, scarce and chanting. Its a very inhuman place where Dragons are still to be believed to inhabit. This is where the Mages and Blood Worms and Worlocks all try and claim their own strong powers... often ending up creating horrific things. Maybe someone or something tried to cease Balerion and The Princess to preform a serious Bloodright ritual? She refused, so the "Blood of The Dragon" and a "Virgin Pure Blood Princess" could of been spilt in some sickening way? She didn't give up her own power it seems so she in turn forfeight her own life... in a horrendous way. Parasidic invasion of herself is obvious. I don't know if this could of happened as a result, or of a result of the inhumane surroundings that not even a Dragon could of Balrions size and strength could get away from unscathed. totally something to do with maybe being called into the depths of a Volcano itself or something... where some infection caught hold. WOW.

    No doubt in my mind that Balerion flew to Valyria. What's scary to me is that he returns with like an 8 foot gash that's still bleeding. Something attacked the dragon and managed to make it bleed. And to make an injury of that size can only imply it was something huge, dangerous, and bold.

    I reckon she drank some sort of contaminated water, which had some small Fire Worm eggs in it. Fire Worms were said to have been similar to the Dragons in size and could breath Fire, but instead of flying they dug through the ground. In the A Dance with Dragon book, the Kindly Man tells Arya about the Fire Worms living in the slave mines and eating the slaves who they came across.

    I always thought that she ended up in Gogossos just thinking of the worms with faces. Since it is rumored that the bloodmages forced enslaved women to bear monstrous creatures fathered by beasts. The Valyrians were the total opposites of the Other. Beautiful fire made flesh. What if they were the results of dragon and human couplings? Until a group of the hybrids is born that are able to pass as human. Unnaturally beautiful in looks but human none the less. As an added bonus since they are the literal blood of the dragon they have a connection with the dragons that no one else can boast. The Targaaryens just happen to have been the sole survivors of this long forgotten history. Either that or she just went to Valyria. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

While there he wouldn’t fly back until 2 years later when they were attacked by fire worms balerion got injured and aerea got infected with the young worms. And balerion then flew them back when aerea needed help.

    I think its a cautionary tale of impetuous youth mixed with some descriptive horror expose....I don't think GRRM will ever tell us what exactly happened to her because the scariest things lie in the imaginations when it comes to the horror genre. A Prime example of this is the "Psycho" shower scene by the legendary Alfred Hitchcock. Imagine a creature strong and large enough to severely injure the black dread......made like a worm, but scalding hot...so horrible that preyed upon young maidens....keep imagining more details and you can begin to understand my point. It sounds a great deal like the fire wyrm from the ancient tale of Beowulf!

And balerion was probably attacked by one of those fire wyrms they grow very large just like dragons so some that were bigger than him attacked him. There are living things still in Valyria mutated men just like the ones on that sohorys island but even worse. And that is what destroyed Valyria, all Thier experiments broke out and destroyed them and the volcanoes probably erupted

    Balerion was obviously badly injured. I think he was forced to wait until his wounds-------particularly that 9-foot rent in his side that was still bleeding-----had healed enough for him to fly back. It was probably a painful flight for him, which shows that he was anxious to get back with her; I imagine, given the dragon-Targaryen bond, that he felt her agony as well, and risked the long flight while he was still injured to get her back where she could get help.
