Emma D'Arcy hints at Rhaenyra being unleashed in House Of The Dragon season 2.“ I am excited to discover what happens when Rhaenyra does less navigating and more acting on her instincts and desires.”
Warning: SPOILERS ahead for House of the Dragon season 1, episode 10.House of the Dragon star Emma D'Arcy teases season 2's Rhaenyra as unbound and more trusting of her instinctual desires. The season finale of House of the Dragon saw Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen be crowned queen at Dragonstone, opposing Queen Alicent Hightower's installment of Aegon Targaryen as King on the Iron Throne.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY However, Rhaenyra's mindset appears to have been changed by the tragic events that transpired at the end of season 1, episode 10. Attempting to gain allies who will recognize her claim to the Iron Throne, Rhaenyra sends her son, Lucerys Velaryon, to Storm's End, hoping to find favor with House Baratheon. Once there, however, Luke discovers his cousin, Aemond Targaryen, has already allied House Baratheon to the greens and Aegon's claim to the Throne.
The moment that she receives the news of Luke's passing, that attempt at mediation crumbles. I don't think there is any longer the bandwidths to suppress and repress her nature... I am excited to discover what happens when Rhaenyra does less navigating and more acting on her instincts and desires.

Rhaenyra's Next Move In House Of The Dragon Season 2 With Luke's death now a key motivator, Rhaenyra's former promises of peace within the Realm appears to be off the table. Aemond's actions have set up the Dance of the Dragons by giving Rhaenyra a personal reason to fight, losing a son to a conflict she initially wanted to resolve peacefully.
House of the Dragon season 1, episode 10 also sets up the possibility that Rhaenyra will face many more losses before the Dance of the Dragons is over. Acting by instinct opens up the chance of a miscalculated error, one that could spell disaster for the blacks or for people she cares about like her children or Daemon. While fans of George R.R.
