Out of Valyria ยท The Conquest

before 2 BC โ€“ 48 AC

Of the five dragons the Targaryens brought out of the Doom's shadow, three made a conquest of a continent.

The Old King's Peace

Under Jaehaerys and Alysanne the dragons multiplied in the Dragonpit โ€” the generation that would tear itself apart.

The Dance of the Dragons

129 โ€“ 131 AC

The civil war of Targaryen against Targaryen. When it began there were more than twenty dragons alive; when it ended, four.

The Wild Dragons of Dragonstone

masterless

Three dragons of the Dragonmont that no Targaryen ever claimed โ€” save one bastard girl with a sheep.

The Dying of the Dragons

131 โ€“ 153 AC

The survivors of the Dance sickened and dwindled under the Dragonbane, until none remained.

Fire Reborn

298 AC โ€“

A hundred and forty-five years after the last dragon died, three eggs of stone hatched on a funeral pyre in the Dothraki sea.
