In the world of Game of Thrones, you can’t move for Aegons. In Game of Thrones, a much-anticipated plot twist revealed Jon Snow wasn’t the bastard son of Eddard Stark. In fact, he was secretly Aegon Targaryen, son of the Mad King Rhaegar and Lyanna Stark. Then, House of the Dragon introduced King Aegon II, the son of King Viserys and Queen Alicent. Finally, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms revealed its bald squire, Egg, was actually Aegon Targaryen, the future King Aegon V.
But where did this trail of Aegons begin? The answer lies in one of the most mythical parts of Westerosi history, a saga that may be adapted into the first-ever Game of Thrones movie.
