Aemond Targaryen's reprisals in the Riverlands
On this tab
In 130 AC, Prince Aemond Targaryen rides Vhagar across the Riverlands and punishes with fire the towns and castles that had sided with Rhaenyra Targaryen. The campaign unfolds within the Dance of the Dragons and leaves the Trident scarred by the ashes of nearly twenty settlements.
Attacks on the Trident
Riding Vhagar, Prince Aemond Targaryen sweeps over the Riverlands and puts to the torch the towns and holdfasts that had declared for Rhaenyra. Darry burns, and so does the village founded by Lord Harroway, along with Lagobarro, Vadopuerco, Stone Head, Barcoviejo, and many smaller river settlements, until close to twenty places lie in ashes.
Vhagar does in days what no army could manage in months: barn after barn, wharf after wharf reduced to cinders, with no one on the ground able to stop her. The fire falls while the Dance of the Dragons still rages on other fronts, and it stands as a warning to the river houses still weighing which side to follow.
