## **353 AC Targaryen Invasion**

* Baelor Targaryen invades Westeros, attacking and capturing Dragonstone in the first battle of the war. Baelor leads the attack from atop his dragon, Rhaegal.Some minor houses from across the realm support the Dragon King, but Westeros stands mostly united beneath the Baratheon banner.
* King Raymont Baratheon calls his banners, Houses Tully, Tyrell and Lannister march immediately, and Lord Baratheon sails north to help the King battle the Targaryens. The lords in the Crownlands closest to King’s Landing send troops at once, though those further north keep their troops closer to their holdings citing the need to defend their lands.
* Baelor had hoped the Crownlands would flock to his cause, only to find that after taking Dragonstone, few lords were willing to offer him any aid The Brunes of Brownhollow, and Dyre Den join him along with the other houses of Crackclaw Point..
* A combined force of Reach and Crown troops arrive at the King’s Landing. The combined army takes to the sea and under command of Master of Ships, \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ sails to Dragonstone, meeting up with the Stormlander fleet outside the castle. There are few ships waiting in Dragonstone’s harbour, but there is a loyal garrison holding the castle in Baelor’s name under the command of Ser Arlan Cole.
* King Raymont knows there is no love between the Tyrells and Lannisters and he orders the Western army to assist House Tully in the northern Crownlands where Baelor has achieved several minor victories.
* The victories in the northern Crownlands were false information on the part of several traitorous lords who sent false word to the capital designed to waste the King’s time by sending an army to pursue him. Baelor Targaryen arrives at Duskendale and captures the city.
* Horas Baratheon receives word of Duskendale’s capture and commands Dragonstone be stormed, desiring a swift end to the war. The Master of Ships leaves Dragonstone to be taken by Horas Baratheon and his army, taking the Tyrells with him to Duskendale.
* Wanting to put a swift end to the war, Lord Horas Baratheon commands the castle be stormed. From the inside a captive Lord Gerold Baratheon of Dragonstone seizes the opportunity and kills Ser Arlan Cole with a dinner fork and the man's own glass eye during the pair's supper. The Lord of Storm’s End perishes in the bloody battle, but the Stormlander forces win the castle back.
* With the city already besieged by the young Lord Lannister and Lord Tully, and the sea cut off by the Royal Fleet and Reach army, the Targaryens are trapped. Reinforcements from King’s Landing arrive, under command of King Raymont Baratheon, and the next day, the King orders an attack upon the city.
* The Master of Ships attacks from the sea while King Raymont leads an assault from the land.
* Baelor takes to the sky upon his dragon and attacks the fleet assaulting the harbour. He burns dozens of ships as they attack, though a ship-mounted ballista manages to take Rhaegal near the crook of the massive dragons wing and chest, piercing deep into it’s body and sending the beast plummeting to the sea. He collides into the Master of Ships flagship, sinking it. The Master of Ships and Baelor Targaryen both drown as the ship sinks, their armour dragging them down to the bottom of the bay.
* Though the Master of Ships drowns, his forces take the harbour at a great loss, King Raymont on the other hand fares much better, and they capture the Dun Fort almost with ease. Most of Baelor’s men surrender shortly after witnessing their King’s dragon get shot down.
* Daeron and a group of soldiers manage to fight their way to the harbour, and is able to escape after they capture a few ships and force their way out of the bay in a mad rush to freedom. The Royal Fleet pursues, but by some stroke of luck, Daeron evades capture.
* The Targaryen Invasion is ended, the traitorous lords sent to the Wall or executed.
