It’s time to bend the knee. After a devastating cliffhanger and over a year-long wait, House of the Dragon has returned to claim its rightful place in the prestige hall of fame. The Game of Thrones prequel is finally building toward the battle we’ve all been waiting for: the Dance of Dragons. With rightful Targaryen heir Princess Rhaenyra (Emma D’arcy) officially usurped by her half-brother, Aegon II (Tom Glynn-Carney), Westeros is headed for a bloody civil war. It all boils down to a long-festering conflict between Rhaenyra and former queen Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke), so expect the upcoming conflict to be as personal as they come.
