On June 16, one of the most highly anticipated shows of the summer returns, HBO Max’s House of the Dragon.
We’ve done the work, and can now reveal our analysis of what we can bet on for Season 2. See the predictions we made for Season 1 of House of the Dragon.
These are all the (spoiler-free) betting odds and predictions for season two of House of the Dragon.
House Of The Dragon Season 1 Recap
“To war, then”. — Aegon Targaryen.
With the death of King Viserys Targaryen in season one, lines were drawn: Team Black and Team Green. The candidates for the throne are Aegon and Rhaenyra Targaryen, and behind each stands powerful family members and allies.
Rhaenyra is supported by her husband (and uncle…) Daemon Targaryen, her ex-mother-in-law(and cousin) Rhaenys Targaryen, and Rhaenys’ husband Corlys Velaryon.
Yes, the family tree is a circle.
With the backing of the Velaryons, based in Dragonstone, also comes the support of their granddaughters, Baela and Rhaena Targaryen. Though they are still young, even children count when they control dragons: Jacaerys and Joffrey Velaryon, Rhaenyra’s sons, are also supporters by default.
Aegon is supported by his mother, “Queen” Alicent, his brother Aemond Targaryen, and grandfather the Hand: Otto Hightower. He’s also aligned with minor characters like Ser Criston Cole.
House of the Dragon Season 2 Preview
The trailer for season two shows glimpses of what to expect for the show, with a few surprise appearances, such as Mystaria the White Worm.
Both houses are shown and the conflicting viewpoints that have brought them into conflict are laid out. A queen who believes her half-brother usurped her throne and is mourning for her dead son.
On the other side we have a blond king (Game of Thrones flashback anyone?) whose mother urges him to proceed cautiously. To which he shouts: “F*** dignity. I want revenge.”
