HouseOfTheDragon writer, Sara Hess, teases the arrival of Blood and Cheese in Season 2.
The first season of House of the Dragon, over its ten episodes and two-month run, brought viewers once again to the continent of Westeros with all of its scheming. In terms of entertainment value, the series simmered and stirred but kept fans glued till the very end. The final two episodes saw the stage getting set for the Dance of Dragons with Queen Alicent usurping the throne for her son, Aegon II from the rightful heir, Queen Rhaenyra .
During the season finale, Rhaenyra dispatches her sons, Jacaerys and Lucerys to affirm the loyalty of her bannermen. Jace was sent to Winterfell and The Vale , and Luke was sent to Storm’s End . However, Luke meets his uncle, Aemond Targaryen and soon, due to past discretions, the pair end up in a battle in the skies that ends with Luke’s death.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY As earlier mentioned, fans of George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood already know the danger these two characters pose. In the aftermath of Luke's death, the Blacks led by Rhaenyra would employ the services of these two individuals to execute a brutal reparation for the death of her son. Given that the fanbase has been promised not to be “disappointed”, maybe we might be set for a gruesome vengeance scene when the show returns.
Luke's death eventually sets off the war that will come to be known as the Dance of Dragons which is the beginning of the end of the Targaryen dynasty’s rule over Westeros. The advent of Blood and Cheese is sure to be a significant part of the coming war, but how significant it will be in the series remains to be seen, House of the Dragon Season 1 is available to watch in full on HBO Max.
