Given the name of the series, it's no shock that dragons will play an awfully important role in "House of the Dragon" season 2, especially after what happened during that shocking season 1 finale. (You know, when Aemond Targaryen's dragon Vhaghar killed Rhaenyra’s son Lucerys Velaryon and his dragon Arrax, kicking off the big succession war in House Targaryen.)
And while we met plenty of mythical monsters in the first season of the "Game of Thrones" prequel series — from Rhaenyra Targaryen's (Emma D'Arcy) she-dragon Syrax Syrax, to the scarlet-hued Meleys ridden by Rhaenys (Eve Best), to the ferocious Caraxes mounted by Daemon (Matt Smith) — the Dance of the Dragons means that there are undoubtedly more creatures to come in the show's second season. (New episodes will kick off on HBO and Max on June 16 at 10pm Eastern Time.)
