Game of Thrones: Dance of the Dragons

The good news of the cessation of the internal strife came one after another, putting Viserys in a good mood, and he patiently listened to Allison continue.

"Just say what you want to say, darling."

Allison, holding Viserys's plump waist, said expectantly, "I hope you can get Aegon and Baylor to go to the Stepstone Islands to fight, just like them."

"Darling, weren't you always worried that Aegon would get hurt or be assassinated on the battlefield?"

"How did you suddenly come to this realization?"

Viserys was actually very happy.

His reign coincided with the height of the Targaryen dynasty's prosperity.

The fact that his children could conquer all directions and eliminate all enemies for the kingdom brought glory to the young king.

Allison spoke gently, "This is all thanks to Aegon."

"This child often complained that he was too young to share his father's burdens. Now that he finally found a suitable opportunity, he naturally wanted to fight for his country on the battlefield."

"In that case, let's wait until Baylor and the others return, and then let Aegon go with them," Viserys readily agreed.

In his mind, the second son was the eldest son's best assistant.

Even if Aegon is a complete waste, if he goes to the battlefield, at least he can help his brother take some hits, which is better than him wasting his life at home.

"That's great, thank you so much, darling!"

Allison was overjoyed and even kissed Viserys for the first time ever.

Although she didn't have a chance to bring up the matter of bringing her father Otto back to his post, she believed that if her eldest son Aegon became successful, it would also enhance Hightower's influence at the Council of Kings.

"Aegon was my child, and this is what he should do." Viserys gazed at Allison, his right hand silently stroking her fair back.

Having been together for many years, Alison understood her husband's thoughts without needing to say a word.

Soon, the dormitory was filled with the sounds of mixed breathing from men and women again.

……

In King's Landing, three giant dragons of different colors roared excitedly as they flew across the sky.

The dragon's roar not only attracted the attention of the common people and the soldiers patrolling the streets, but also made Imond and Daeron, who were studying in the Red Keep, look up in envy.

Now, of all the Targaryen members, only he and his brother Daeron remain, and neither of them has their own dragon.

It's worth noting that the eldest brother, Baelor, the eldest sister, Rhaenyra, the older sister, Helena, and Aegon had all tamed their dragons at a young age.

Among them, Baelor, Rhaenyra, and Helena were entrusted with important tasks by their father Viserys, not only to quell rebellions within the kingdom, but also to patrol the borders on dragons year-round.

In contrast, one of the brothers was of age but could not find a suitable dragon in King's Landing, while the other was too young and was strictly forbidden by their mother, Allison, from taming dragons.

Because the last time her older sister Helena tamed a dragon, she almost scared her mother to death.

As children of the Hightoar family, filial piety is the first principle, something Imond and Daren learned from their mother from a young age.

Despite this, he also wanted to rebel like his elder brother, Prince, and tame a dragon of his own to conquer the battlefield!

……

Dragon's Lair, the foundation of House Targaryen's dragon taming and control, was transformed, through Baelor's persistent efforts, from an impenetrable hemisphere into a lair that could provide dragons with a place to go at any time.

In the dragon taming manual of the "Vaghar" dragon king family compiled by Beller, there are records related to the dragon's lair. The top dragon king families never imprison dragons.

They believe that dragons and nature are inherently most closely connected.

Therefore, the most correct way to raise dragons is to let them soar through the sky, forage freely, and learn to hunt and evade.

Baelor was cautious. He first modified the dragon lair in King's Landing, and then allowed the few dragons in his family that had riders to forage freely outside.

Every so often, the dragon riders in the family would be organized to fight each other to train the dragons' fighting and killing abilities.

In just seven short years, the glutton, Dreamfire, and Syracuse have all visibly grown in size.

The Glutton, in particular, is only half a body length away from surpassing Vormitor and is about to become the second most powerful dragon of House Targaryen after Varghal.

"Baelor? You're back from the Valley so soon?" Aegon landed on Sunfire in the Dragon's Lair.

In his understanding, it would take at least fifteen days to wipe out the mountain clans in the valley.

After all, those barbarians have lived in the Bright Moon Mountains for many years. The roads there are very steep and surrounded by caves, making it difficult for the dragon to take advantage of its strengths.

"There's no other way. As long as I take action, there's no problem that can't be solved."

"By the way, I remember this isn't a dragon training course, is it?"

Baelor knew that even if Aegon was playful and lazy, he would never make a mistake on such a trivial matter.

Aegon explained with a dejected look, "It's all because of my mother."

"What are you saying? Family members are fighting bloody battles on the front lines. As one of the only two male heirs in the family, I should go forward to fight and win military merits so that I can be granted the title of prince as soon as possible."

With each word he spoke, Aegon seemed to desperately need a deep breath.

The war was more mentally taxing for him than sleeping with five or six women in a row.

Renilla laughed and retorted sarcastically, "Oh dear, has our beloved and kind stepmother changed her ways?"

"When the war first started, you were all crying and wailing, and you absolutely refused to go."

"What, you see we've lowered the danger level of the Stone Steps Islands and are planning to let you in to earn some military merit?"

Aegon knew what kind of personality his elder sister had, and he had also heard from his father Viserys about her feud with the Queen Mother.

Secondly, with the eldest brother, Prince, still here, talking back and refuting is clearly foolish behavior.

Actually, I don't want to go either.

"After all, I don't have any grand ambitions. I just like to eat, drink, and have fun. Riding dragons in the sky, visiting brothels, occasionally having a drink, and enjoying delicious food—isn't that good enough?"

Aegon is different from Aemonde and Daeron.

In his childhood, Baylor didn't often go on dragon patrols along the border with Renilla and Helena, unlike he does now.

Instead, he spent a great deal of time at the Red Keep teaching Aegon all sorts of things, including dragon taming, navigation, plant identification, and so on.

They transformed Aegon from an ignorant and useless person into a learned but lazy person who didn't want to use his knowledge.

Therefore, in Aegon's mind, Baelor was a more terrifying person than his father, and that is why he respected his brother even more.

Similarly, they follow their own inner thoughts more, and are always slacking off and lying down.

Renilla shook her head speechlessly. "Look, look."

"When he was a kid, he was such a nice young man, how could he say something like that?"

"Aegon, do you think you've lived up to all the good intentions I gave you back then?"

As she spoke, Renilla pointed specifically at Helena, "Look again, her sister is only two years younger than you!"

"Even the most senior scholars praised her, saying that if she had devoted herself to her studies, she could have acquired knowledge in at least twenty different fields!"
