House of the Dragon season 2 will focus on King Aegon II Targaryen and Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen’s battle for the Iron Throne, but it’s already hinting at another ruler. The Game of Thrones prequel is going to really ramp things up in the coming episodes, as House of the Dragon season 2 will properly begin the Dance of the Dragons.

The Targaryen civil war will divide Westeros into two sides – the greens and the blacks – with the Iron Throne being the ultimate prize.

Several of the key events that will play out in the Dance of the Dragons have been teased in the House of the Dragon season 2 trailer. These range from major battles to new characters, and shocking moments such as what happens with Blood and Cheese. Alongside these, there was set up for a future ruler of Westeros to take over in House of the Dragon’s future – though it won’t be Rhaenyra.
