Aegon II's quick but viscerally brutal slaying of Queen Rhaenyra doesn't seem to do her justice.
As the two dragons struggled in the Battle Above the Gods Eye, Daemon plunged from Caraxes, wielding his sword Dark Sister and stabbing it into Aemond's remaining eye.

We last saw her find out the truth in "We Light the Way" that Rhaenyra lost her virginity to Ser Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel).
By marrying Rhaenyra to Laenor, Viserys regains the strength of House Velaryon's fleet, wealth, and dragons.
