If you spent most of 'House of the Dragon' Season 3 Episode 4 wondering where Aemond Targaryen and his dragon Vhagar had gone, you were not alone. The prince and the series' most formidable warrior are absent for much of 'Tumbleton', and that omission is deliberate.
Rather than unleashing Vhagar in another battle, HBO shifts the focus elsewhere, leaving viewers to debate whether Aemond died after the events of Episode 2, or whether Alys Rivers is hiding something when she claims he has left Harrenhal.
