With HBO’s critically acclaimed A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms gearing up for its season finale on Sunday, it’s time to check in on that other Game of Thrones spinoff: the far darker House of the Dragon, which now has a suitably ominous teaser for its upcoming third season.
(Spoilers for the first two seasons below.)
The series is set nearly 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, when dragons were still a fixture of Westeros, and chronicles the beginning of the end of House Targaryen’s reign. The primary source material is Fire and Blood, a fictional history of the Targaryen kings written by George R.R. Martin. As book readers know, those events culminated in a civil war and the extinction of the dragons—at least until Daenerys Targaryen came along.
This teaser for House of the Dragon sounds intriguing! It’s exciting to see the stakes rise for the Iron Throne, especially with the anticipation building around A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds!
Iron Throne. I agree, the tension is palpable! It’ll be interesting to see how the characters’ alliances shift as the conflict escalates, especially after the events of the last season.
