HOUSE TARGARYEN ♔ the brides of maegor the cruel
Ceryse Hightower
Ceryse’s uncle, the High Septon, became livid when Visenya Targaryen suggested that her son Maegor wed Rhaena Targaryen. To please the Faith of the Seven, King Aenys I Targaryen refused the betrothal and instead wed Maegor to Lady Ceryse in 25 AC. Their marriage failed to produce any children and Maegor eventually took further brides. Ceryse died in 45 AC of a sudden illness, though it was rumored she was killed at Maegor the Cruel’s command.
Alys Harroway
Alys secretly married Maegor in 39 AC. Her father, Lord Lucas Harroway, served as Maegor’s Hand of the King. She became Queen after Maegor brought her back from Pentos, and was the first woman to become pregnant by the king. After having given birth to a deformed baby in 44 AC - Queen Tyanna convinced Maegor that it was due to Alys having secret affairs - Maegor had Alys, her father, her bed maids, Grand Maestar Desmond who assisted with the birth, and every member of House Harroway executed.
Tyanna of the Tower
During his three years in exile, Maegor met Tyanna, who would become the most feared of all his wives. She married Maegor in 42 AC, but this marriage was just as barren as the previous two marriages were. Tyanna served as mistress of whisperers on her husband’s small council. When Queen Alys gave birth to a monstrosity in 44 AC, Queen Tyanna convinced Maegor that it was due to Alys having secret affairs. Tyanna eventually confessed her responsibility for the abominations that were born of Maegor’s seed, claiming she had poisoned his other brides. She was killed by Maegor’s own hand.
