For example, House Baratheon – the second royal house whose leader, Robert Baratheon, deposed and killed the Targaryens prior to the series – starts out as House Targaryen’s closest ally, as represented by Aegon’s best friend (and rumoured bastard brother, Jon Snow-style) Orys Baratheon. Also, remember Harrenhal, the burned and twisted castle used as a Lannister base? In this series you’d see what happened when Aegon’s dragons first poured their flame on it, turning hard stone to liquid and burning Harren the Black and his sons within.Īnd dramatically, there’d be some intriguing parallels for Game of Thrones fans to enjoy. While it’s long enough ago that we’d have no familiar characters or storylines, the events of Aegon’s Conquest will be fairly familiar to Game of Thrones fans, as they were often referred back to throughout the series.Įven casual fans may remember the massive dragon skull kept in the King’s Landing dungeons, and in this series we’d actually meet that beast (Balerion the Black Dread) in his prime.
