Persion is a dragon hatched in Westeros by Elaena and Daemon Targaryen, the grandparents of Danae Targaryen, Aeslyn Targaryen, and Rhaegar Targaryen. He is commanded by Danae Targaryen and his name stems from the High Valyrian word "Perzys" which means fire.
History
It was after Daenerys Targaryen failed to reclaim the iron throne and upon the loss of her dragons in Westeros that she fled to Braavos with little to her name but three dragons eggs from Drogon, Viserion, and Rhaegal. With the loss of her dragons the magic needed to hatch the eggs disappeared and at that point the Targaryen dreams of retaking the Iron Throne were replaced with the harsh realities of simply trying to survive. They worked to amass a modest wealth in Braavos and lived there quietly for many years.
Sibling-spouses, Elaena and Daemon Targaryen, inherited the three eggs and returned their house to poverty and ridicule in Westeros. They sought to bring the dragons of old back into the world and sacrificed their first three children to the flame. The sacrifice of blood and fire was needed in order for men to orchestrate the hatching of dragon eggs and soon there were three small dragons in the world once again. However, the dragons had to be placed in hiding and they remained small in size compared to the dragons of old.
Three of Elaena and Daemon's living children inherited the dragons upon the passing of their parents. The siblings Naerys and Maekar married and gave birth to Danae and Aeslyn, while their brother fathered Rhaegar off a distant cousin. Maekar commanded Persion until the day he died, while Aeslyn's dragon was previously commanded by her mother Naerys. Upon the death of Maekar, Danae took control of Persion. All three dragons had to remain in hiding as House Targareyn had no followers, no armies, and very little land. They remained small and passive for many years.
