'Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms' Has A Huge 'Game of Thrones' Easter Egg Hiding In Plain Sight
"In the last moments of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 3, Egg reveals his true identity: he's actually Aegon Targaryen, youngest son of Maekar and youngest brother of Aerion. However, he's not the only Targaryen we find out about. When Dunk is in the Fossaway tent drinking cider with Raymun Fossoway, Raymun goes on a bit of an anti-Targaryen rant."
"We are all too familiar with Aerion, and now we know Daeron was the inebriated guy in the inn from Season 1, but who is this mysterious third son who was shipped off to become a Westerosi doctor? That's Aemon Targaryen, the kind brother who actually gave Egg his nickname. If that name sounds familiar, that's because this Aemon is actually Maester Aemon, the elderly, blind maester who joined the Night's Watch."
Daenerys Targaryen descends from the silver-haired dynasty; Rhaenyra sits about six generations earlier. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 3 reveals Egg’s true identity as Aegon Targaryen, youngest son of Maekar and brother of Aerion. A Fossoway rant names Daeron, Aerion and a third son who had been sent to the Citadel. That third son is Aemon Targaryen, the kindly sibling who became Maester Aemon. Maester Aemon later joins the Night’s Watch, mentors Samwell Tarly, and dies of old age in Season 5, delivering final words to Egg.
