    Summary

    Thus, the Seven Kingdoms watched in horror as the House of the Dragon unraveled, threatening to destroy the nearly 80 years of peace they had dismissed as eternal. Smallfolk dubbed it "The War of the Red and Bronze Dragons," after the colors of Vermithor and Caraxes, the dragons of the rival kings. Yet, history would remember it by a more evocative name:

    The Dance of the Dragons.

    Part 2 of the series The Dragon's Heirs.

    Summary

    "As penance for their crimes, every year, two people from each district would be chosen to compete in the Hunger Games, a battle to the death where only one lone Victor would remain."

    When you play the Hunger Games, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.

    Summary

    When Yoren of House Poles, a house born from the Dragonseed, was born, he was taught that his house only serves House Targaryen. Yoren was dedicated and determined to defend their rulers, no matter the cost. One day, on Dragonstone, his ways are crossed by Princess Rhaenyra and her sons, believed to be bastards. That day changes Yoren and shows him a new form of loyalty.

    This fanfiction follows the events of the show, up until the end of S1, adding some few elements from S2 and some of my own ideas. And also the dates are trying to be as much similar to the books as they can. I'm mostly trying to use the book as the main source.
    Short summary: Rhaenyra is named heir in early 107 AC, Aegon is born in late 108 AC. Events of episode 3-4 happen in late 111 AC to early 113 AC.
    I might edit this when I think of it better. :)

    English is not my first language, for any mistakes I'm sorry. :)

    Summary

    “What are you reading?” Stannis asks as he sits himself next to his young daughter, Shireen looks at him as she shifts closer to him.

    “The Dance of Dragons,” she answers.

    “What's it about?” Stannis presses on.

    “It's the story about the fight between Rhaenyra Targaryen and her uncle Daemon for control over the Seven Kingdoms. Both of them thought they belonged on the Iron Throne. When people started declaring for one of them or the other, their fight divided the kingdoms in two. Brothers fought brothers, dragons fought dragons. By the time it was over, thousands were dead.”

    “The Dance of Dragons, why is it called a dance?” Stannis asks.

    “It's just what they call it.”

    “That makes sense,” Stannis mutters darkly.

    Shireen paused as she turned back to her father, “I think it's poetic.”

    In other words, what if the Dance happened between Daemon and Rhaenyra?

    Summary

    It's just a normal day at the office for Ryan Condal and his colleagues, until a fateful knock on the door changes the trajectory of their lives and, more importantly, the show they're working on, HBO's House of the Dragon.

    It may seem this piece is specifically designed to humiliate and entirely ruin all your favourite HotD characters. This is because that's exactly what it's trying to do. Better yet, it will get worse as it goes on. You have my word on that.

    This piece is adapted from a set of "leaks" for House of the Dragon's third season, which can be found here: https://x.com/hberryleaks/status/1954594453374541900

    Summary

    The battle that should have killed him left him alive—but not unbroken. Lucerys Velaryon survives, hunted and scarred, bound to three dragons whose fire mirrors his own untamed spirit. Alongside his brothers and twin sister, he discovers that family can protect—or betray—and that loyalty, vengeance, and dragons’ flames may be the only weapons strong enough to shape his destiny. But his uncle Aemond’s murderous obsession shadows every step, a relentless storm of fire and fury threatening to consume all Lucerys holds dear. In a world of scheming courts, broken alliances, and war that never sleeps, surviving is only the first battle—and the war for everything he loves has just begun.

    Summary

    Four years have passed since King Viserys the Peaceful breathed his last and from his lineage, two great powers have taken shape. One known across the world is that of his son Aegon who sits the Iron Throne and rules the seven kingdoms, yet far to the east hidden behind the veil of superstition and seclusion, a greater power grows in the shadow as Rhaenyra Targaryen sits the Dragonglass Throne and rules over the Valyrian Empire.
    These past years the Empire has lived in the peace of their hidden paradise, reshaping the recovered powers of the long-dead Freehold, but now the prosperity of their hidden realm is challenged when fate begins to force them from the shadows that have long protected them and the time is fast approaching when the world will see the Empire in all its might.

    Summary

    The Dance of the Dragons is over, but Westeros is left fractured and scarred. Daeron Targaryen survives as the last champion of the Greens, crowned king in a realm wary of peace. As part of the tenuous settlement, he is reluctantly betrothed to Baela Targaryen, his former enemy and the dragon he swore to hate.

    Amid lingering threats, a tragic heir raised in secret by Alys Rivers, ambitious lords like Hugh Hammer, and the ever-watchful Black loyalists rallying behind Aegon the Younger, Daeron and Baela must navigate the ruins of a war-torn kingdom.

    Forced together by duty, they slowly discover trust, understanding, and the sparks of a love neither expected. As the time of dragons fade and old ambitions crumble, their bond becomes the fragile hope of a new Westeros, one built not on fire and blood, but on honor, loyalty, and the hearts of those who survive.

    Summary

No, they only seek better life for themselves and those they care about, and they will get it. After all, no one is more impressionable than the young ones.
