The story of the fabled dragon Balerion the Black Dread is one filled with death and horrors for House Targaryen.
Balerion the Black Dread is arguably the most famous dragon in Westeros' history. When Aenar Targaryen departed the Valyrian Freehold for the island of Dragonstone, he brought a total of five dragons along with him. However, Balerion outlasted all of his counterparts, and took part in some of the most pivotal events that shaped the Seven Kingdoms for generations. He was ridden by Aegon the Conqueror when he set out to take over Westeros.
The loss of Elissa Farman and the callousness of her mother weighed heavily on Aerea Targaryen, who quickly grew to hate Dragonstone. She began to act out and misbehave in defiance of her mother, abusing her servants and insulting any visitors in court. Despite their estranged relationship, Rhaena still believed that her daughter should claim a dragon of her own.
It was announced that Aerea had died from a horrible fever, and discussion on the princess' death was kept to an absolute minimum. The only documents that recount Aerea's final moments are those of Septon Barth, who revealed that a fever was only the beginning of the torment she was going through. Barth remarked that Aerea's skin wasn't just hot, it was burning.
Fortunately, the horrors that erupted from the princess' corpse thrashed and died within the ice tub, as they were clearly creatures of smoke and flame. With that, the body was prepared, and Aerea's remains were cremated in a funeral service per Valyrian tradition. However, Septon Barth still wondered as to where the princess and Balerion had gone. Reports in Westeros had failed to yield results, and nobody in the Free Cities had credible stories about either.
