Like 'Game of Thrones,' 'House of the Dragon' contains dozens of characters with strange names, questionable wigs and confusing relationships to one another.
Like Ros and Shae before her, Mysaria is a savvy sex worker who plays her own game of thrones with Westeroi royalty. In this case, she aligns herself with Prince Daemon — her frequent customer — and his hopes of sitting on the Iron Throne. This handsome, common-born Dornish knight makes a major impression when he bests Daemon at a jousting tournament .
During a difficult breech labor, King Viserys decides to sacrifice his wife to save his unborn heir — who winds up dying shortly after he’s born anyway. It’s a brutal, but pointed sequence that sets up childbirth as the "battlefield" for Westerosi women and shines a light on the human cost of patriarchy. Though Aemma may be gone, the memory of her life and death will surely remain for Viserys and Rhaenyra.
