House of the Dragon: Why Did Aemond Burn Sharp Point?
Aemond is one of the least pleasant characters in House of the Dragon. The Targaryen family is full of brutal conquerors and cruel monsters, but some seem more forgivable than others. Viserys and Alicent’s second son seems to have all the bad parts of his father’s lineage. Aemond unleashes the wrath of his mighty dragon on the innocent village of Sharp Point when he sees his enemies gaining power. He torches the seat of House Bar Emmon because their patriarch supports Rhaenyra’s claim to the throne.
