History

After Aenys died, Quicksilver was claimed by his eldest son, Aegon. Meanwhile, Aenys's half-brother Maegor usurped the throne and began to crush the Faith Militant using Balerion, the Black Dread. Eventually Maegor's cruelty grew great enough that Prince Aegon rallied what forces he could in rebellion against him, rallying behind his dragon Quicksilver. They engaged Maegor's royal army, with Maegor riding Balerion, in the Battle Beneath the Gods Eye. Quicksilver was not a very young dragon at this point, at least two decades old, but it was nowhere near the size and raw power of Balerion (who was by then around a century and a half old and of tremendous size). Balerion made short work of Quicksilver, killing both dragon and rider.
