Spoiler alert: This recap is for the Dragons’ Space watching population. Don’t learn unless you’ve seen season two, episode 4.
,I inherited 80 years of peace from my father. Before I end this, I needed to know there was no other way,
Now you are speaking. Nearly a scene-setting season and 3 pressure-cooker episodes (not to mention 8 seasons of Sport of Thrones), we come to the finale: full-bore, teeth-snapping, feather-ruffling, blood-spattering, fire- Breath-breathing, army-sacrificing, king-slaying dragon-on-dragon pace. Sure, we saw Lucerys die at the hands and claws of Aemond and Vhagar in season one, but that was just as gruesome a collision as any deliberate murder. There’s nothing unexpected about this fight in the air: After all, we see the dragons as guns of war, fully armored war machines timed through the most efficient special effects that HBO’s budget can buy. are dropped. And it is absolutely beautiful.
Before we can get there, though, there’s going to be a lot of waiting. Damon (Matt Smith) is stuck at Harrenhal, trying his best to raise an army. Unfortunately, the one population at hand is either too weak or too small to make significant selections, or, like Lord Blackwood, they first invoke brutal massacres among the enemies of their community. Daemon still has his sights set on – young Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock), the Iron Throne, himself in the guise of Aemond Targaryen (Evan Mitchell). At least we have a pretty good idea who’s responsible: Harrenhal’s bastard sorceress and part-time maestro, Alice Rivers (Gail Rankin), a woman who’s more clearly a King’s Consort than anyone else, rather than his wife. Roop was ready to talk. , However, has she truly bewitched Damon, or did that glass contain something even stronger than a drowsy draft?

Meanwhile, on the Driftmark, the virtues of the Hull brothers Alyn (Abubakar Salim) and Adam (Clinton Self-Government) become clear, as we are told via Princess Rhaenys (Eve Perfect) that they are the bastard children of her husband C. Snake, Lord Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint). Recently, on the heels of the revelation that the boisterous Wino Ulf (Tom Bennett) also has royal blood in his veins, a theme is clearly emerging. Anyway, Velaryon doesn’t stay in his ancestral home long before he heads back to Dragonstone to join Rhaenyra’s court, all of whom, including the young heir Prince Jacqueris (Harry Collette), have died out having outlived their usefulness. Are. War chief in the queen’s absence.
Back at the Pink Reserve, King Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney) has the same ambitions. Angered by his Small Council’s reluctance to lead the fighting process and their willingness to let his younger brother Aemond do so – Aegon takes action, angering Lord Larrys Sturdee (Matthew Needham) for allowing Daemon to take action. of. Accused of plotting to speed up Harrenhal and usurp Aemond’s authority. Aemond’s response – using his fluency in Prime Valyrian to embarrass Aegon – was absolutely brilliant at best, a use of natural brotherly cruelty with extremely unpredictable consequences.
‘This war will not be won Alone with dragons, but With dragons flying behind armies of men’
As expected, the realization that King Viserys never changed his mind about Rhaenyra’s accession begins to unsettle Dowager Queen Aliscent (Olivia Cooke). On the other hand, it has to be said that expressing your skepticism towards a slippery fish like Ser Lazarus probably wouldn’t be the most effective coverage. He’ll certainly give you a chance to point this out to her, as he’ll certainly bring up the information that she’s been consuming Moon Tea – the Westeros equivalent of morning-after tablets – but also the possible arrival of another royal bastard. To offer, whose father, Ser Kristen Cole (Fabian Frankel), is now rampaging through the Crownlands with an army at his back.
Today it’s clear that even though Ser Kristen may be strategically incompetent in matters of center, his ability to carry out a war is actually going to look good. With three castles conquered and a fourth – the remainder of the apparently unimportant Rook – annexed, Kol is fighting the entire battle alone, albeit with the recommendation of Prince Aemond, and the less-than-welcoming of his posh and cantankerous wife. With appropriate intervention. Gwen Hightower (Freddie Fox). However, it is most effective when battle is involved, and Ser Kristen’s forces begin their sunlit march on Rook’s remains, truly revealing the fiendish nature of his and Aemond’s plan itself.
‘attack, meleys,
Thank God Rhaenyra herself did not fulfill her initial desire to lead the battle – even if it would be a laugh to see a queen face a king, her fate would certainly be similar to that of Rhaenys. Waiting and his dragon Melise. There is no longer any entire collection to mention regarding the climactic dragon combat – it used to be bright, painful and exciting, beautifully designed and strongly shortened in combination, as a flawless motion line As we have done flawlessly for 10 seasons.
Aemond’s cruel decision to retreat and let his brother face Maelys was a brilliant tension-raiser, though why Rhaenys decided to remain in the fight against Vhagar instead of cutting back and running back to Dragonstone was puzzling. Was going to. Perhaps she was regretting her previous decision of not burning down Aegon’s entire network when she had the chance, or perhaps she’s such a difficult girl that she couldn’t bear the thought of supporting ill-will. Either way, the ultimate outcome of all this remains hidden: will Aemond now proclaim his brother’s throne in the park? What vengeance will Corliss seek for his spouse? For the first moment this season, I’m squinting wide to understand.

Supplementary Notes
Before you say that, of course, I’ve learned Hearth and Blood. However, at the moment I can’t remember the specifics of this actual twist in the story – I remembered that Aegon died suddenly, but not when, or how, or exactly what happens after that.
Speaking of Aegon, the king’s decision to turn his consummate friends into Kingsguard knights is paying off in the past: that momentary shot of them running into each other like Keystone police officers was paying off.
In fact there should be some degree of regulation against being under the influence of alcohol under Dragon control. Still, regardless of the fine, Egon paid it and paid some.
Within the first season, the entire track of the Prophecy of Ice and Hearth was considered an inept way of connecting Space of the Dragon to its progenitor. However, I’m inspired by the way the writers have placed the prophecy at the center of events here, using it to not only strengthen Rhaenyra’s claim to the throne, but to take part in this apparently unnecessary battle. This has also been done to strengthen its full justification.

No more one lonely sausage.
trust in violence
Oh sure. Not only the extreme firestorm, but two decapitations – the first of Dream-Rhaenys, closest to the Lord of Duskendale – as well as a whole heap of bloody corpses left behind by Ser Criston in his long march.

GLOW viewers will be more familiar with Rankin, who plays Alice Rivers here and who appeared as the infamous Sheila the She-Wolf for three seasons (she also played Queen Victoria in The Greatest Showman, oddly enough In). Exactly how a bastard woman from the Riverlands managed to acquire a broad paisley accent remains a mystery, but as always in Westeros, it’s best not to ask.
