Who is Mysaria?
The Heirs of the Dragon introduced Mysaria as a prostitute from Westeros during Daemon Targaryen’s celebrations, however, after his exile Daemon is seen leaving with Mysaria.
The HBO series describes Mysaria in the following way:
“She came to Westeros with nothing, sold more times than she can recall, and she could have wilted… but instead she rose to become the most trusted – and most unlikely – ally of Prince Daemon Targaryen, the heir to the throne.”
Furthermore, the House of the Dragon source material states Mysaria, or Lady Misery, is a dancer turned lover of Daemon Targaryen and the mistress of whispers to Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen during her reign.
