History
Baela grew up on Dragonstone.
Towards the end of the civil war, as Dragonstone fell to Aegon II, Baela was able to escape from her bedchambers as the door was being smashed down. She managed to reach Moondancer in the stable where the castle dragons were kept. There she loosed her chains and strapped a saddle onto her. As Aegon II flew Sunfyre over Dragonmount’s smoking peak, Baela rose up on Moondancer to meet him.
Quotes
So it came to pass that when King Aegon II flew Sunfyre over Dragonmont's smoking peak and made his descent, expecting to make a triumphant entrance into a castle safely in the hands of his own men, with the queen' loyalists slain or captured, up to met him rose Baela Targaryen, Prince Daemon's daughter by the Lady Laena, and fearless as her father.[2]
