Princess Gael Targaryen was the thirteenth child of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen and Queen Alysanne Targaryen.[1] Born during winter, Gael was also called the Winter Child.[2]

Character

Gael was simple-minded and sweet.[2]

History

Born the last of all her siblings, Gael was the favorite of Queen Alysanne. She disappeared from court in 99 AC, and was said to have died from a summer fever, but in reality, she had committed suicide by drowning herself in the Blackwater. The reason for her suicide was that she had been seduced and abandoned by a traveling singer, who had left her pregnant. In her grief, Queen Alysanne would die within a year.[2]
