HouseoftheDragon won’t be back for a bit, but here’s what we hope to see in season two:
the HBO drama’s writers “are always striving to stay within the basic lines that George established.” Translation: read with caution.
With that said, if you don’t want to know too much about what’s to come but you still want at least a vague sense of the future, here’s what we’re expecting to see fromIn the season finale, Rhaenyra makes the fateful choice to send her two oldest sons away from Dragonstone to recruit potential allies. It ends up being a costly decision, with Luke losing his life in the effort.
Again, it’s worth keeping executive producer Hess’s words in mind, that the show will “stay within the basic lines” of Martin’s material. If that’s the case, then let me push the warning about this specific incident a little bit further: unless the series messes with the timeline of the war, we’re going to rush up to meet this horrific event very early in season two, potentially as soon as the premiere.
