The battle between the three dragons had a mortal outcome for all. In their struggle, Tessarion suddenly attacked. When Vermithor took to the sky, Addam Velaryon turned Seasmoke towards the older dragon. It was said afterward that the fight between Tessarion and Seasmoke seemed to be more a mating dance than a battle. The dragons rushed one another time and time again and at one point, Tessarion vanished into the clouds, reappearing behind Seasmoke breathing flames. Riderless, Tessarion flew up, shrieking and spitting flame, and met Addam Velaryon and Seasmoke in battle. Tessarion's rider was killed at the start of the battle. Matters came to a head two days later, when a surprise night attack by Addam Velaryon upon Seasmoke started the Second Battle of Tumbleton. Among the Caltrops, the lords and knights who conspired to kill Hammer and his fellow dragonseed, Ulf the White, Ser Tyler Norcross believed that Tessarion on her own should be enough to retake the Iron Throne, while Lord Unwin Peake argued that their victory would be more certain if they had the dragons of Hugh and Ulf in their possession as well.
