The trailer for the Season 1 finale of HouseOfTheDragon shows The Black Queen preparing for war.
HBO’s House of the Dragon is pushing ever closer to fulfilling the words of House Targaryen: Fire and Blood. The series’ penultimate episode, The Green Council was the first time we saw treason and subterfuge at its peak on the show. The king is dead; and his queen, Alicent Hightower has misinterpreted his final words as wanting their son, Aegon , on the Iron Throne.
Episode 9 saw the imprisonment of Princess Rhaenys Targaryen , dozens of servants, and the murder of Lord Beesbury at the Small Council by the out-of-control Ser Criston Cole . The Greens – as the side of the Hightowers is known – have effectively installed the clearly unfit Aegon as king but his aunt, Rhaenys, disrupts his special day when her dragon bursts from beneath the ground and stares him down.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The shock on Rhaenyra’s face could stem from the fact that the Targaryen family had just recently made amends. However, it would seem that the princess is considering avoiding bloodshed and bending the knee, something her husband, Daemon advises against. “You cannot bend the knee to the Hightowers,” the Rogue Prince says. “They stole your birthright.”His counsel is simple: let’s go to war.
The trailer then shows one of the young princes running towards a dragon in the dark while it rains, and another flying in the sky presumably in the same downpour. Ser Erryk of the Kingsguard, who had helped free Princess Rhaenys in King’s Landing, is seen holding a crown as he swears fealty to Rhaenyra. However, there is a cryptic message in the trailer when someone says, “Your cause holds a power that has not been seen since the days of Old Valyria.
The entire first season of House of the Dragon has been leading up to the moments which will play out in the season's finale next week, as the Dance of the Dragons begins. Rhaenyra has long shown herself to be a kind but formidable force; as such, it would be interesting to see how that plays out in the throes of war.
