Manfryd Mooton

**Lord Manfryd Mooton** was a head of the noble House Mooton and Lord of Maidenpool. He sided first withRhaenyra Targaryen and then with King Aegon II Targaryen during the Dance of the Dragons.

## History

Manfryd inherited his lands and titles from Lord Walys Mooton, his brother, after Walys was burnt alive by Sunfyre, the dragon of King Aegon. Manfryd originally kept in line with his brother's support of Rhaenyra, and Maidenpool played host to King Daemon Targaryen and his paramour, the baseborn Nettles. After the betrayal of other baseborn dragonriders Rhaenyra ordered that Nettles and Ser Addam Velaryon be executed, and sent a message to Lord Manfryd informing him as such.

Lord Manfryd was disturbed as he did not want to break guest right by killing the girl under his roof, and also wanted to avoid the wrath of King Daemon. His councilors advised him to pretend never to have seen the letter, and his Maester, Norren, informed daemon and Nettles of the queen's decree.

Daemon and Nettles left Maidenpool the next day, thanking Lord Manfryd for his hospitality and informing him to tell Prince Aemond Targaryen that Daemon would be waiting for him at Harrenhal. Shortly after the two left Manfryd raised the standard of Aegon over Maidenpool, replacing the flag bearing the sigil of Rhaenyra. This almost brought the queen's wrath on House Mooton, but she lost power before she could unleash it.

After the war ended Lord Manfryd was one of the Seven Regents, but died in 134AC and was replaced by Ser Corwyn Corbray.

Jaehaera Targaryen

File:Jaehaera Targaryen.png
Princess **Jaehaera Targaryen** was the daughter of Aegon II Targaryen and his sister-wife and Queen Helaena Targaryen, and the first wife and queen of her cousin Aegon III Targaryen. Jaehaera had a twin brother Jaehaerys Targaryen and a younger brother Maelor Targaryen. The dragon Morghul was bound to Jaehaera.

She was small of stature. Jaehaera is described as a sweet simple girl of six at the time of her brother's murder. As a babe, she showed no emotion.

After the death of Prince Lucerys Velaryon, Prince Daemon Targaryen declared vengeance, writing that there would be *“an eye for an eye, a son for a son”*.

Princess Jaehaera was present in the Tower of the Hand when Blood slew her twin Prince Jaehaerys. Prior to the boy's death, as the queen prevaricated, Cheese warned her to make a choice soon, before Blood grew bored and raped Jaehaera.

When the queen’s dragons first appeared in the skies above King's Landing, Lord Larys Strong spirited Jaehaera out of the city along with her father and younger brother Maelor. Lord Larys led them out through a secret passage of Maegor's Holdfast, of which only he had knowledge. Jaehaera was put in the charge of Ser Willis Fell, who swore to bring her safely to Storm's End.

Following the deaths of her parents, brothers, and uncles in the Dance and the victory of the Blacks, Jaehaera was married to King Aegon III as part of the peace agreement.

Two years after her marriage, Jaehaera died when she was impaled on the spikes of the dry moat of Maegor's Holdfast. She lived for a half hour in agony before her death. With her ended the line of the marriage of King Viserys I and his second wife Alicent Hightower.

Jaehaera's death was officially deemed a suicide, akin to that of her mother Queen Helaena. However, many suspected that she had in fact been murdered at the instigation of Lord Unwin Peake, the Hand of the King and one of the seven regents, as Lord Peake hoped to marry his own daughter to King Aegon instead. It was variously suggested that Jaehaera had been murdered by Ser Mervyn Flowers of the Kingsguard, bastard brother of Lord Peake, who had been at her door when she died; or that Ser Mervyn had merely stood aside to allow Tessario the Tiger, a sellsword in Lord Peake's service, to do the deed.

The woman was dead, but her daughter cleaned his wounds and fed him potions until he was strong enough to ride again.

 File:Mance Rayder by Filipe Ferreira.jpg
The daughter sewed the rents in his cloak with some scarlet silk from Asshai that her grandmother pulled from the wreck of a cog washed up on the Frozen Shore. It was her greatest treasure and her gift to Mance.

Mance Rayder left the next morning; "... For a place where a kiss was not a crime, and a man could wear any cloak he choose." according to him.
