Is the Crabfeeder [Craghas Drahar] Dead or Alive? Explained

Daemon was on the ground battling the Tricarchy forces and making every effort to seize Stepstones. Due to the terrain, the others were unable to offer him much assistance. Whereas dragons couldn’t go, the Crabfeeder and his soldiers were sheltering in the caves. Additionally, the dragons were becoming weaker and suffering from injuries. The men of Daemon began to believe they had no other options. The Crabfeeder’s army was in the caves, and Lord Coryls, his brother Ser Vaemond Velaryon, and his son Laenor Velaryon realized they had little hope of defeating them until they came up with a strategy to lure them out. He claimed that the army might emerge if they used a man as bait and duped them into thinking they had surrendered, giving them the chance to attack them. Laenor thought Daemon might agree to take part in this suicide mission, but Vaemond claimed that nobody would. After finding some drive, Daemon ultimately succeeds in killing the Craghas “The Crabfeeder” Drahar in House of the Dragon Episode 3. How it all turns out let’s find out.

When Daemon gets a letter from his brother Viserys informing him that he is sending a fleet to assist him, the story begins.

Daemon resolves to terminate it there and then by serving as the Crabfeeder’s bait due to his embarrassment. He moves to the beach and begins to wave a white flag while the Crabfeeder is close in a cave. When the army gets close enough, he starts slaughtering everyone after luring them out. Laenor appeared out of nowhere on his dragon, Seasmoke, as the armies emerged from hiding. Crabfeeder was conscious of his deception. Daemon went after him as he entered one of the caves.
