- "Aemond was the blood of the dragon, and dragons don't cower behind city walls. He marched the king's army north to take back Harrenhal from Rhaenyra's husband Daemon. But when he and Criston Cole reached the castle, they found the gates open, with Daemon and all his men gone. That night they feasted their victory; Daemon had fled rather than face their wrath. But Daemon was more snake than dragon; as Aemond marched north, he'd flown Caraxes south, slithering past the Green army over the waters of the Gods Eye."
- ―Robert Baratheon
The Retaking of Harrenhal was a distraction tended by Daemon Targaryen to remove the forces loyal to the ill-fated King Aegon II of King's Landing, making it easy for him and his wife Rhenyra take the capital mounted on their dragons.
