HBO is delving even further into the Westeros history books: The network is eyeing a prequel to "Game of Thrones" focused on the reign of Aegon I Targaryen, our sister site Variety reports.

No writer is attached to pen the series yet, but HBO is currently searching for the right writer to help get the series moving forward in development.

The proposed series — which is only in the very early stages of development at this time — would take place about a century before HBO’s current prequel "House of the Dragon" (which itself is set 200 years prior to "Game of Thrones") and tell the tale of King Aegon I Targaryen, who was the very first to sit on the Iron Throne and establish the Targaryen dynasty.

Aegon and his sister wives, Visenya and Rhaenys, used their three dragons to conquer six of Westeros’ seven kingdoms (all except for Dorne).

HBO orders Game of Thrones prequel series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight

The prequel series based on George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg books is officially moving forward at HBO, Warner Bros. Discovery announced at its Max press conference. Here's the official logline: "A century before the events of ‘Game of Thrones,’ two unlikely heroes wandered Westeros… a young, naïve but courageous knight, Ser Duncan the Tall, and his diminutive squire, Egg. Set in an age when the Targaryen line still holds the Iron Throne and the memory of the last dragon has not yet passed from living memory, great destinies, powerful foes, and dangerous exploits all await these improbable and incomparable friends.” Martin will serve as writer and executive producer along with Ira Parker, who was a co-executive producer on Season 1 of House of the Dragon. House of the Dragon's Ryan Condal and Vince Gerardis will also serve as executive producers.
