Allegiance House Targaryen
Book A Game of Thrones

Ser Morgil Hastwyck[1] was a knight who lived during the reign of Aegon IV Targaryen. He was renowned for slandering Naerys Targaryen and being confronted by her brother, Prince Aemon the Dragonknight, in trial by combat.[2] According to Kaeth's Lives of Four Kings these accusations were instigated by Aegon IV himself, who was at the time quarreling with his son Daeron.

Quotes

Well, the singers embroider everything, but there was a Ser Morgil and he did accuse Naerys of various things... probably adultery and treason with Aemon, but I haven't nailed all that down yet....[3]

- George R. R. Martin
