Just before she died from the trauma of the birth, she told Ned the truth about the child and told him his name, Aegon Targaryen. There, Ned located his sister at The Tower Of Joy as she was giving birth to her child with Rhaegar. (She was also in love with him.) Following their marriage there was the rebellion, and Robert defeated and killed Rhaegar at the Battle of the Trident. The truth is that Rhaegar, though he was married to Elia Martell and had two children with her, had his marriage with her annulled and secretly married Lyanna Stark, with whom he was in love. The supposed kidnapping is what sparked Robert’s Rebellion, and ultimately brought an end to the Targaryen dynasty. Throughout most of the show’s history, it was believed that Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna Stark, Ned’s sister, who was betrothed to Robert Baratheon. He was the true heir to the throne before Robert’s Rebellion and the cause of the rebellion. Rhaegar Targaryen was the eldest son of The Mad King, Aerys II. Or was she? Maybe her coin flipped the wrong direction, too. She was breaker of chains, freer of slaves, the most righteous leader the world had ever seen. Over the years, Dany’s power grew as her followers grew, The Dothraki, The Unsullied, The people of Mereen, Jorah Mormont, and eventually Jon Snow all saw her as their queen. She is also, of course, the aunt of Jon Snow, but we’ll get to that a little later. Their older brother Rhaegar was already dead by the time Dany was born, and she was one of the last two Targaryens seemingly left. As the youngest daughter of Aerys and Rhaella, she was behind her older brother, Viserys. When the show began, Dany, as she is known to her real fans, was second in line to the thrown in the Targaryen line. The parts that are important to Westeros in there are the “House Targaryen,” “Queen of The Andels and the First Men,” “Protector of the Realm,” and “Regent of the Seven Kingdoms.” Game Of Thrones fans are of course very familiar with Daenerys Targaryen, played wonderfully by Emilia Clarke, whose full title is so easy for everyone to remember: Daenerys of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, The Unburnt, Queen of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men, Queen of Meereen, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Protector of the Realm, Lady Regent of the Seven Kingdoms, Breaker of Chains and Mother of Dragons.
