The Big Picture Balerion the Black Dread is arguably the most famous dragon in Westeros' history. When Aenar Targaryen departed the Valyrian Freehold for the island of Dragonstone, he brought a total of five dragons along with him. However, Balerion outlasted all of his counterparts and took part in some of the most pivotal events that shaped the Seven Kingdoms for generations. He was ridden by Aegon the Conqueror when he set out to take over Westeros.
Aegon’s son, Maegor, succeeded him as King. Maegor earned the nickname, ‘The Cruel’ and is arguably the most evil Targaryen King in history. Maegor was a dangerous fighter with a sadistic temperament, which naturally drew him to Balerion. Maegor crushed several rebellions using Balerion’s power. Eventually, he rode Balerion during a fight against his nephew and easily defeated his much smaller dragon, Silverwing.
The Death of Aerea Targaryen Is the Stuff of Nightmares After over a year, the Conciliator began to fear that his niece had died, thrown from Balerion's back wherever the dragon had chosen to fly. When the Black Dread returned, he had been gone for so long that some smallfolk had feared that Maegor the Cruel had risen from the grave and had claimed Balerion once again, seeking revenge.

It's speculated that Aerea, dying of thirst, eventually descended to land to drink from a water source containing bacterial worms that festered and grew into the monstrosities that eventually burst from her stomach. Fortunately, the horrors that erupted from the princess' corpse thrashed and died within the ice tub, as they were clearly creatures of smoke and flame. With that, the body was prepared, and Aerea's remains were cremated in a funeral service per Valyrian tradition.
Despite this, Balerion never saw the Doom for himself, as Aenar Targaryen's daughter Daenys the Dreamer saw the cataclysm in a prophetic dream, ultimately leading the upstart dragonlord to seek refuge on Dragonstone. The Black Dread likely sought to return to where he was born and only found death and ruin. We'll never know what happened when Balerion and Princess Aerea reached the ruins, but even the mighty dragon didn't return home unscathed.
