Then they will have to burn the 7 kingdoms cause all his allies gave up in the end
They feared that the Targaryen fleet would pillage Tidehead Island in response to their previous silence.

They would have to win a land battle. The only way to win that was burn the ships and run, getting them ready to sail after they are all tied would take half an hour at least, they would've been wiped out by then for sure
The ships cut through the waves, heading towards the distant horizon.

No one had expected the Targaryen fleet to arrive riding the storm, and the royal navy of Storm's End hadn't even launched a single rowboat, leaving them in a completely unprepared state.

Perhaps Robert simply wanted to recapture Dragonstone first and then hand over Storm's End to him.

That only happened because the starks went to Kings Landing looking for Lyanna. The war wouldn't have started if Lyanna didn't follow Rhaegar
In truth, if not for Rhaegar and Lyanna's selfish desires, the war against the usurper would not have erupted, and the kingdom could have persevered for a few more years under the Mad King's rule...

Why wait until you are being attacked to think about running away???
He would persuade his mother to abandon Dragonstone and lead the fleet to escape to the eastern continent.

It is her brother, there could be some Stockholm syndrome there, in any case I doubt she actually wanted him dead
The deaths of her husband Aerys and eldest son Rhaegar had become an unbearable pain in Rhaella's heart.

Why didnt he urge his mother to depart earlier? It's obvious Robert wouldn't let them live
At the time, he had been frightened by the attack and worried about the future, causing him to obsessively practice swordsmanship for self-preservation.

Since when do the redwynes rule over Hightower?
So, at the coronation ceremony, the newly sworn Lord of the Hightower, Paxter Redwyne, was ordered to lead an attack on Dragonstone.

Their army never entered Dorne tho
Yet, Eddard did not want to wage war against the powerful Dorne, especially considering that even the Conqueror, Aegon, had faced troubles in that region.

Vengeance will not bring her comfort, he should just offer emotional support since she has no one else
Viserys hoped that his words could bring some comfort to his grief-stricken mother.

Did you even think this through? Who would they abandon their only ally and hope to survive just because a 7 yo told them to? Without the Lannisters they were dead either way
Once the past words turned into a bloody reality, his nephew Aegon's head was smashed against the wall, and his sister-in-law, Princess Elia, was raped and killed by the Mountain, who still had Aegon's blood and brains on his hands.

basically this:
By sailing so close to Tidehead Island, they merely aimed to issue a warning with the aura of their recent victory, urging those with ulterior motives on the island to think twice before making any moves.
