Summary

Daemon ’s actor Matt Smith has securely establish himself as one of the best parts ofHouse of the Dragon ’s cast , and that should keep on as theGame of Thronesprequel go forrard . With the Dance of the Dragons do to truly begin inHouse of the Dragonseason 2 , Daemon will have a major role to dally when the new episodes come around .

Daemon Targaryen Survives The Dance Of The Dragons - Theory Explained
Daemon’s body was never found.
Daemon and Aemond ’s tartar struggle is said to be heroic and savage , and unsurprisingly ends with both of them and their dragons perishing . The conclusion sees all the combatants falling into the Gods Eye lake , and the odds of them surviving are passably much zero . That ’s corroborate for Aemond , Vhagar , and Caraxes , as all of their corps are found , but not for Daemon . His torso did n’t moisten - up with the others , and was never witness at any point inHouse of the Dragon ’s timeline , nor the many years after . Because of that , there are theories he really survived , and singers even sing of this .

There is n’t as much detail surrounding how much damage Daemon took in the fight , in contrast to Aemond ( who is stabbed through the eye by Daemon with the steel Dark Sister ) , which further allows the theory to live . It continues that he went off to live a peaceful biography with Nettles , a dragonseed who hinge upon the tartar Sheepstealer , and with whom Daemon has a romantic relationship . Nettles and Sheepstealer are spotted after theDance of the Dragons ' closing , run into in the mountains in the Vale , and some believe Daemon is with them , living a peaceable , secluded life after years of fighting .
There is also some possible motive for Daemon ’s survival thanks to Martin himself . In an interviewMartinshared on his Facebook page in 2018 , Daemon is his favorite Targaryen . InA Song of Ice and Fire , it ’s very likely that Martin ’s preferent case - Tyrion Lannister - will go , so the same could be dependable forFire & Blood . With Nettles ' selection and whereabouts also confirmed , then Daemon being live certainly is n’t impossible , even if it is farfetched .
Why House Of The Dragon Should Confirm Daemon Targaryen Really Dies
Daemon needs a definitive ending.
There may just about be wiggle way to have Daemon be one of the fewcharacters who make it the Dance of the Dragons , but it would be a mistake . Again , while not definitely ruled out , it is highly unbelievable that Daemon could have survive the Battle Above the Gods Eye , given it claimed the life sentence of not only Aemond , but also two monolithic Dragon . Daemon would have suffered a lot of damage even before he and the dragons went crashing into the lake , and consume him miraculously make it out alive would stretch along credulity .
House of the Dragondoesn’t necessarilyneedto confirm things one way or another , and could leave Daemon ’s ending open just a crack . That may work for an in - universe history Good Book likeFire & Blood , where there are already conflicting bill of just about everything that happen , but it ’s more of a problem forHouse of the Dragon . This should be a more definitive notification , and the story , Daemon ’s arc , and audiences all deserve a proper common sense of closure rather than equivocalness and constant conjecture over his luck . Besides , House of the Dragonfaked Laenor Velaryon ’s death , so repeating the magic trick , or even having the possible action of it , would take chances experience a minute cheap .

Further to that , Daemon being alive elicit too many questions . After his end , the war continues ; his wife , Rhaenyra , is killed ; and eventually his own Word , Aegon , assumes the Iron Throne . Daemon just bide in hiding while all of that goes on seems unlikely , begging the query of why he never returns . Even if there were an solution , though , dying in engagement is a far more fitting fate for a warrior , and doing so in a dragon conflict with his nephew , Aemond , is especially liable ( and something already set up).House of the Dragoncan give Daemon a true , awe-inspiring ending , and the theory that he survives could die with him .
