The fate of Aegon II unfolds in "Fire & Blood," where we learn that the king met his end after Corlys Velaryon, the Sea Snake, pleaded with Aegon to end the Dance of the Dragons, the devastating civil war that had torn Westeros apart. However, his plea fell on deaf ears, and Aegon's refusal to compromise ultimately led to his undoing.
The poison that claimed Aegon's life is said to have been the work of his treacherous half-brother, Aegon "The Younger" Targaryen, who sought to seize the Iron Throne for himself. With Aegon II's demise, the Dance of the Dragons took a pivotal turn, setting the stage for further bloodshed and political turmoil in the realm.
