I had a thought the other day, and it goes along with how I think people believe Jon may end up warging into the dragons. We don't know much at all about Stark geneology, but I wondered if way back when, there could have been some Stark/Targaryen interbreeding and that's why the older Targaryens could control dragons. Somehow that gene passed off to the Starks and there were no more Targaryen/Stark pairings for awhile, and that's how Targaryens lost their ability to control dragons. Does that make sense? Anyway, just a thought.


It's not a bad idea, but I don't see it being true. My impression is that the Targs never had any contact with Westerosi people until they came to conquer Westeros. At that point, they already controlled the dragons.

Also, the reasons Dragons in Westeros died out was due to Targs trying to keep them inside. Dragons need to be free to roam in order to grow larger.

Also, as for the doom of Valyria, I think that it was some sort of natural disaster involving volcanoes (think Pompeii)

How far back do we know that Starks have the ability to warg? Didn't mean to imply that the reason Targs can control dragons is from the Stark's ability to warg passing to Targs. More meant to say that the Starks got it from Targs. There were how many years of Targ control of Westeros before aGoT starts?
