How long the dance of the dragons lasts (and who wins)
In the novels of George RR Martin, the Dance of the Dragons rages from AD 129 to AD 131. The entire reign of Aegon II is marred by the war against Rhaenyra Targaryen, his half-sister, for the Iron Throne. Aegon sustains serious injuries during the conflict, leaving him severely burned and deformed. In AD 130, Rhaenyra conquers King’s Landing, but is seen as a traitor and expelled shortly thereafter. Aegon then feeds them to his dragon, Sunfire. Despite Rhaenyra’s death, the dance of the dragons still does not end as the black armies continue their march on King’s Landing to dethrone Aegon.
With the green armies exhausted and the war all but lost, Aegon still refuses to surrender. Ultimately, Aegon II is found dead in the royal sept, probably poisoned by his own men to end the war. Rhaenyra’s son Aegon III is crowned shortly thereafter. So who wins the Dance of the Dragons is somewhat subjective. Aegon II outlasts Rhaenyra, but Rhaenyra’s descendant will sit on the Iron Throne once the war is finally over. Not necessarily committed to the source material, house of the dragon can pick a more definitive winner.
