In Game of Thrones, dragons are closely linked to the fate of Daenerys Targaryen, who is also known as the "Dragon Mother" and "Dragon Queen". Although Daenerys learned to navigate Drogo's Calassa early in Game of Thrones, the truth is that she only became one of the powerful protagonists in Game of Thrones after hatching a dragon egg.
Three ferocious dragons, namely Drogon, Viserion, and Rhaegard, make up Daenerys' entire storyline. They accompany Daenerys throughout her Game of Thrones journey and protect her if necessary. In Game of Thrones, Daenerys and her dragon inflict massive damage on their enemies in dozens of extraordinary dragon attacks.
1. Meereen's Second Siege (Season 6, Episode 9).
During the Second Siege, Daenerys regained control of the ancient city of Meereen, destroying the alliance of slavers seeking to restore slavery. Queen Daenerys abolished the former slave towns, namely Astapor, Yuankai, and Meereen, but led to a rebellion by an underground organization known as the Harpy Sons.
Daenerys' assistant conveyed the terms of surrender to the slave owner's emissary. She and her dragon flew into the sky and set fire to the slave owners' warships and soldiers. Drogon, Viserion, and Rego wreaked havoc on the port. This dragon attack proves that the dragon mother and her dragon children are a force to be reckoned with.
2. Beyond the Wall, Saving Jon and the Others (Season 7, Episode 6).
Jon fidgets when he learns that the Night King and the army of the dead are marching on the city of Eastwatch, meaning they are likely to have crossed the Wall. Daenerys is reluctant to leave and goes north to stay with him, but Tyrion suggests that if they can convince Cersei to declare a temporary truce, they can go. To this end, Tyrion tells Jon to bring the Wraith to King's Landing to convince Cersei. The plan was foolish, but Jon agreed, and Jon, Ser Jorah, Gendry, Berwick Donnellion, the Hound, Torus of Mill, and a few free dwellers decided to hunt down the strangers. Helpless and attacked, Jon sends Gendry to ask Daenerys for help. He and the men retreated to a frozen lake, but hordes of strangers began to swarm at them. Daenerys arrives just in time, and her dragon spews dragon flames at the strangers below.
This is Daenerys' first battle with the Wraith. She rode on Drogon's back, and Drogen's hundreds of wraiths burned to death on the ground. The Night King watched as Dragonflame destroyed his army until one of his lieutenants handed him an ice spear and stabbed Visserion in the throat. Despite the cost of losing a dragon, the dragon takes a heavy toll on the Wraiths, and Daenerys saves the key characters.
3. Destroy the Iron Fleet (Season 8, Episode 5).
After the second dragon, Rego, was shot by a scorpion crossbow, Daenerys became angrier than ever, wreaking havoc on the Iron Fleet. Events such as Sir Jorah's death and Mishandae's execution, combined with the revelation of Jon's origins, make her increasingly paranoid.
The Iron Fleet anchored in Blackwater Bay was destroyed by Daenerys riding Drogon. As Euron Greyjoy waits for her, she suddenly appears, dodging the Scorpion's attack and setting the ship and the Scorpion Crossbow on fire. Euron jumped into the water, but Daenerys' deadly assault on King's Landing had only just begun. She and Drogen's form a deadly duo to bring the city to its knees.
4. Legion of Destruction (Season 8, Episode 5).
Daenerys' massive army, led by her commanders Jon Snow and the Grey Bugs, faces the ** Legion led by Harry Strickland outside the city gates. After a terrible silence, Drogon blew up the gates from behind, killing most of the mercenaries. While it was an easy attack for this dragon, the Dragon Burn attack was still memorable as it blew everyone by surprise.
* The Legion becomes useless. After the gates were breached, the Dothraki and the Unsullied defeated the mighty ** legion in an instant.
5. The Battle of Winterfell (Season 8, Episode 3).
In the seventh season of Game of Thrones, Daenerys witnesses the horrors beyond the Wall and promises to fight alongside Jon. Viseryon dies at the hands of the Night King, and she becomes angry with the Night King and grows in her affection for Jon, who calls her the Queen.
At this stage of the story, Daenerys already has two dragons, and the North is ready for battle. The Battle of Winterfell took place after the Night King melted the walls with the blue flames of the undead ice dragon. At the end of the second episode of Game of Thrones season eight, an army of strangers arrives outside of Winterfell.
In Game of Thrones' "The Long Night", Jon and Daenerys are on top of a nearby hill trying to fight the Night King. Jon rode Rhaeggar, Daenerys rode Drogon, and the Night King rode the ice dragon Visserion. In an epic scene, they fly side by side, leaving Winterfell in search of enemies, when Visserion's blue flames pierce the clouds. The Night King arrives, Jon intercepts him, and the two dragons attack each other with their claws and fangs. This is one of the most spectacular battle scenes, and soon Daenerys and Drogon rush in and try to defeat the Night King.
6. **The Battle of the Avenue (Season 7, Episode 4).
In this battle of dragons, Drogon's fighting skills outperformed the other two dragons. The battle took place after the fall of Daenerys' allies in Westeros, the Tyrells, and the sacking of their domain, the High Court. Due to Tyrion's plans, the Unsullied and its commander Grey Bug are trapped in Castle Rock, and she decides to take matters into her own hands.
Daenerys rode on Drogon and led the Dothraki army in an ambush of the Lannisters at Blackwater Ferry. The Dothraki cavalry rushed into battle, and Drogon ignited the infantry formation on the ground. Daenerys burns down Jaime's supply convoy destined for King's Landing. At the end of the battle, she rounded up the survivors, most of whom succumbed to her authority. In this famous Game of Thrones episode, she had Drogen's Randolph Tully and his son burned, and the rest of the POWs submitted.
