At the end of this war, Aerys and Rhaegar were dead and the Targaryen power-base in Westeros destroyed. This sparked a massive uprising led by Eddard Stark, Robert Baratheon, and Jon Arryn. When Lyanna's brother Brandon protested, Aerys responded by having both him and his father Rickard Stark arrested and executed.
ĭuring the increasingly erratic reign of King Aerys II, his son Rhaegar was said to have kidnapped Lyanna Stark of Winterfell for unknown reasons. The last hold-out, Dorne, joined the kingdom through a political and marriage alliance some two centuries later. In a short period of time, six of the seven formerly independent kingdoms had surrendered to the Targaryen leader, King Aegon I, unifying the continent under his rule. After the obliteration of Valyria in the Doom, the Targaryens launched a devastating invasion of Westeros using three dragons to spearhead their attack. Once a noble family of the vast Valyrian Freehold, an empire spanning most of the eastern continent, the Targaryens were given control of the island of Dragonstone in the Narrow Sea some centuries ago. House Targaryen's sigil is a three-headed red dragon on a black background, and their house words are "Fire and Blood." The bloodline of House Targaryen also still exists in various houses, such as House Baratheon, House Velaryon, and House Martell. He is exiled to the Night's Watch for the assassination of Daenerys. Jon became the last known living member of House Targaryen and his identity as the son of Rhaegar Targaryen is kept hidden from Westeros. After she laid waste to a surrendered King's Landing, Daenerys was assassinated by Jon Snow to prevent further destruction. House Lannister replaced House Baratheon as the royal House following the destruction of the Great Sept of Baelor, but the realm was reconquered by Daenerys Targaryen, retaking the Iron Throne following the Battle of King's Landing. The two surviving Targaryens, Viserys and Daenerys, fled into exile to the Free Cities of Essos across the Narrow Sea. House Targaryen conquered and unified the realm before it was deposed during Robert's Rebellion and House Baratheon replaced it as the new royal House. House Targaryen of Dragonstone is an exiled Great House of Westeros and the former royal House of the Seven Kingdoms.
The banner of House Targaryen, the royal house of Westeros. " Half the Targaryens went mad, didn't they? What's the saying? 'Every time a Targaryen is born the gods flip a coin.'" ― Cersei Lannister to Tyrion Lannister
