The burning of Harrenhal occurred during Aegon’s Conquest. Aegon the Conqueror used his dragon, Balerion the Black Dread, to melt the towers of Harrenhal, which killed King Harren the Black.
Harrenhal’s walls were too high and too thick, and well-stocked enough to withstand a siege. During a parley outside the castle, Aegon offered to confirm Harren as Lord of the Iron Islands, provided he would yield. Harren refused, trusting in the strength of his castle, confident that the stone would not burn. Aegon warned him that the line of House Hoare would come to an end that night, at which Harren returned to his castle. To his men, he promised riches and the daughters of the riverlords to anyone who could slay Aegon’s dragon, Balerion, in the upcoming battle.
When the sun had gone down, Aegon flew Balerion high above Harrenhal, before plunging down upon Harrenhal, burning the castle beneath him. All that was flammable, both suplies and ironmen, caught fire within the castle, while Harrenhal’s stone towers cracked and melted. The rivermen outside observed that the towers glowed and melted like candles.

“When sun sets, your line shall end”
Such an awesome line
bro needs a whole ass ladder to climb onto his dragon
Thank you from France 🇫🇷, for putting an image on everything we imagined while reading the books! I feel like watching mini episodes of Aegon I's conquest. Thank you for your quality work 🫶🏻
He thought the Hawk Tuah was gonna work? 😂
This is great, it reminds me of those OSHA safety videos
Awesome!
At first I was confused on why Balerion's fire was black, but then I read online that his fire was black with a red swirl. Good attention to detail.
"stone doesn't burn" oh yes
But it melts😂
If I had the resources I would gladly spend all of my life making a video game about Aegon's Conquest with my blood sweat and tears
Yoooo, the background music is 🤌
He said “Hawk Tuah”
Stone doesn't burn

This is not only the most detailed accurate portrail of the great dragon, but also the most believable and visually balanced portrail of the castle Harrenhal I've ever found on the internet. And I've searched a lot for Harrenhal as it looked before being ruined. Thank you for your efforts!
1.36 was so satisfying to watch! The way Balerion kneels down so Aegon can climb on and also his face like “are we about to start some fun shit?” Perfect!😂 your videos are amazing thank you!❤
This is a decent start, definitely not even close to finished tho. AI could make this look 10x better in minutes
Balerion is awesome on this animation 😍😍😍
YOU MADE BALERION LOOK LIKE DROGON WHEN HE WAS SO LITLLE
Bravery and stupidity has a difference 😅😅😅😅
Greats video brother

Aegon: when the sun ends, your line shall end.
Harren Hoare: Hawk tuah
I want Cillian Murphy to play Aegon the conqueror
well done looks sick
who ever did aegon's voice gah dym. he sounds hot
I always wondered how his fire could be black but the way its presented here makes perfect sense
Dragon fire can’t melt stone masonry
The iron born have strength and that’s all. Even strength has to bow to wisdom sometimes
