Season 2 of House of the Dragon delves deeply into the annals of Targaryen history, shedding light on the enigmatic silver-haired lineage. The dynasty that reigned over Westeros for generations possessed the blood of dragons, endowing them with the ability to be formidable dragon riders. However, not all Targaryens bond with dragons at birth. Some take a long time, as in the case of Rhaena.

Who was the original rider of Sheepstealer?

Unlike the show, Sheepstealer was claimed by a Dragonseed named Nettles in Fire & Blood. The show decided to go astray from the lore in George R. R. Martin’s book and merged Rhaena and Nettles’ storylines. In the book, Rhaena is largely dragonless during the Dance of the Dragon, her dragon egg hatches towards the end into a beautiful pink dragon called Morning.
