Of Dragons grow their whole life, then there is a point where they start suffocating because the muscles in their chest aren’t strong enough to support breathing. If Balerion had reached that point, then it is entirely possible that he wasn’t really fearsome in comparison to the younger dragons who could and would kill you if you did a wrong move, simply because he was going out of breath by moving himself. In theory he is still incredibly strong, but his weight limits him both in movement and breathing.

He was fkn wounded, what on earth are you on about... He returned from Valyria with a collection of new scars and one particular huge wound of which nobody ever knew what caused it, but it must've been horrible. That and the age withered Balerion a good chunk before his time. He was as old as Vhagar was during the dance when the dragonkeepers called him sluggish and slow, but Vhagar at that age was still quite mobile. So his visit to Old Valyria must've been the reason he grew old so fast.

There’s actually nothing in the lore that indicates a dragons life expectancy or if they have a growth cap. We all know they grow larger when free and most of the dragons in this story grew up in the dragon pit or in the caves of dragon stone. It’s very possible he could have grew even bigger and older had he been a wild free dragon like the cannibal. As far as his health decline, he was fine before he was claimed by princess Rhena’s daughter and flew off to no one knows where. Only upon return from the disappearance did he come back changed. For the first time the fierce beast was truly injured and never fully recovered from the injuries indicated to be the worst he’d ever suffered and both external and internally. It is widely speculated that he would have lived longer had he never encountered whatever it was that hurt him. So the theory that he reached his max size and end of his life isn’t actually known. And being that every other Dragon was killed or died young, there is no way of knowing.

Viserys was control by a vagina. The oldest ploy in the world. Bad handful the king with ambitions to steal the crown. Funny how quickly he went downhill after the first son was born. He wasn't much older than his brother yet looked a century older. He should have never touched his hands, daughter and especially his daughter's BFF. It was bad enough her mother died trying to birth a son but to have her BFF's life to also be to produce an heir that would rob her crown? Gross. And her BFF willingly seducing the king on the eve of his wife's death? I guess she is lucky he didn't try to keep the blood line lure by marrying her. Perhaps Baleron sensed the moral depravity and weakness of his rider. The dragons are deeply bonded with their riders so he also knew he was ill. It was just another damaged relationship he caused and left to rot and fend for itself.

Everyone knew how unwell Balerion was after his ride back to the Valyrian ruins with Princess Aerea. I think Visarys intentionally claimed Balerion because he personally wasnt interested in being a dragon rider beyond he felt it was his birth right to claim a dragon. His mother flew him on her dragon with her when he was a baby and he still picked the dragon everyone knew was declining, injured, and hadnt flown in years. It always struck me as a weird choice when there were so many other options for him.

It also that everyone thought Balerion was done for and would never fly again. It is only for Viserys alone, that he flew briefly one last time. Remember, Viserys was chosen by a council and many people still were divided about him and wanted Rhaenys/Laenor instead. And Viserys did not have a dragon. So, Balerion riding with him one last time before dying was him giving Viserys his "blessing" as the rightful king.

If anything Balerion dying immediatly after Visarys claiming him and Visarys being dragonless by the time of the counsel shows he wasnt worthy.

Even the dragon pit masters convinced his mother into claiming a different dragon over a decade before he was born because they knew he wasnt going to live much longer and she could get a younger healthier dragon. That is how she ended up claiming Maelys. I can see how there is a novelty about claiming him but there is no way Visarys thought he was going to be flying frequently or for long. Visarys 100% knew what he was getting and still said the novelty of claiming a dying dragon with a cool history was better than claiming a different dragon who he could ride regularly. To me is makes him seem weak and lame not badass. It is like going into a boxing match with a former champion for the thrill of saying you beat a champion but the champion you challage is 97 years old and can barely stand anymore.

They fight each other too without their riders commands. Also I heared Dragons doesnt get sick. But who knows for shure. It doesnt has a fixated lifespan. Dies in battle,accidents,and starvation or whatever else is there left for them to end their lives.

It was Viserys who ended up not making Balerion fly to dragonstone- He said he would have liked to, but Balerion was Clearly struggling and was very very old.

Part of me wonders what if Balerion just barely lived in time for the dance. Who would claim him? Which side would have him? How much would having him turn the tides? How many other dragons would it take to kill him? Would he and Vhagar agree to fight each other?

It's more sensible that balerion was sick because of the wound he got in assumedly Valyria. Could've been infested with the same parasites his rider (forgot her name) had in her body

For people who pay attention to lore… The black dress was heavily wounded during his long disappearance prior. Which never properly healed, and he was weakened from then on spending his last decades staying inside his lair until that day he flew Viserys. And then passed the following year.

Balerion wasnt old. He went to Valyria and something hurted him there, to the point of never been "him" again. Just check Vhaegar, almost same age and she is still fighting and flying. Dragons dont die from old age, there was never a record of one doing it annd in old Valyria there were bigger dragons than him.

Dude was just old. It was merely the end of an era. Everything dies. All good things pass - as do all bad things as well. Time is the master of all; even the most fearsome of beasts.

Have you read the books? Balerion was also hurt prior to that and never recovered from it. So it's natural he didn't have the strength given that he was old, injured and too big to fly. He didn't even come out of the dragonpit in his last years

Thats crazy that they both ended up losing all they worked for at old age. Balerion was that og dragon that saw the conquest and pretty much saw the last true king, then that king went on to die and the whole kingdom with him.

I personally believe the humble king brought peace and they say the dragons can sense the energy the rider brings so my belief is when viserys bonded with Balerion that he felt his inner peace and lack for war and was at peace and let himself go to die.

Um, no, there's no betrayal. Balerion was old, lazy, and dying. He didn't refuse to fly more, so much as was more incapable of going further. It's especially telling that he died shortly after, despite probably having the best care in Westeros, after the king himself.

To be fair Viserys is a dithering man that lacks confidence and decisionmaking. He also just wants to please everyone, probably including Balerion. It's silly that he never rode another dragon. Who knows, maybe that blood magic in his veins could've stopped his leprosy

The Black Dread I don’t think never DID betray Viserys! I Believe The dread simply was somewhat in the combination of both of Heartbreak and just plain old age. Knowing your the last and oldest can have a great affect on you! In the books like “Fire and Blood”they gave hints somewhat that they are primitive YET Intelligent but also Emotionally powerful and yet preceptive in a lot of things but still are animals. For the dread he was wanting to do all he can for the young lord but he was old and ached all the time. My other theory was that he was so Emotionally Scared by what he had seen in old Valiera that he knew there was nothing left so maybe when he came back it hit him on the fact that there is nothing left of home. Either way he is and always will be the BLACK DREAD!!

@@ziontenuia9266 that’s contradicting what you said. Saying something has never happened isn’t the same as saying it can’t happen. Which is what you’re saying. Rhaenyra and Aegon II both wanted replacements for Syrax and Sunfyre which they believed they could do. They died before they could but the fact that they believed they could is telling. Viserys could’ve attempted but just didn’t want to.

To all show-only people, the dragon had previously been claimed by a targ girl who was then taken across the sea by Bel against her will to the Old Valyria ruins where both the dragon and rider suffered injuries. The girl was infected with some horrifying magical insects/monsters that essentially boiled her from the inside, and the dragon was scraped deep by something that must have been formidable and VERY large. The dragon never recovered, and was most likely infected with some sort of magical disease. This also may be an explanation for the health issues of King V, as he was the next and last person to claim/ride Bel after that incident. ”Balerion had wounds as well. That enormous beast, the Black Dread, the most fearsome dragon ever to soar through the skies of Westeros, returned to King’s Landing with half-healed scars that no man recalled ever having seen before, and a jagged rent down his left side almost nine feet long, a gaping red wound from which his blood still dripped, hot and smoking.”

It was asid in the book Balerion didn't have much strength left in him, Viserys flew him around Kings landing 3 times, but knew he wouldn't have the strength to make it the whole way to dragonstone, Balerion was old and the injury he suffed when he was taken to old valyria weakened him in his twilight years

I may be misremembering, but did Balerion actually refuse? I remember reading it as Viserys realized he couldn't make it and chose not to. I could very well bw wrong though
