Following the death of King Viserys I Targaryen in season 1, season 2 has seen Westeros divided into the Blacks and Greens, with both sides trying to claim allies amid the beginning of a violent cycle. From the murder of Lucerys Velaryon to the Blood & Cheese assassinations to the duel of the Cargylls, the dance fully began at the Battle of Rook’s Rest, where Targaryens fought one another on dragonback.House of the Dragon is based on the book Fire & Blood, which is an extension of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice & Fire book series. Based on the source material, plenty of battles and dragon fights are still to come, though season 2 was mostly about the opposing sides assembling their forces for the conflict. The Greens have raised the armies of the Reach and the Westerlands, while the Blacks have raised the armies of the North, the Vale, and the Riverlands, with new dragonriders supplementing their forces.

OverviewThe Targaryen dynasty is at the absolute apex of its power, with more than 15 dragons under their yoke. Most empires crumble from such heights. In the case of the Targaryens, their slow fall begins when King Viserys breaks with a century of tradition by naming his daughter Rhaenyra heir to the Iron Throne. But when Viserys later fathers a son, the court is shocked when Rhaenyra retains her status as his heir, and seeds of division sow friction across the realm. |
