As a long-time Game of Thrones and now House of the Dragon fan, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming sixth episode of this captivating series! Having closely followed the storylines and theories since the original show’s inception, I have grown deeply attached to these characters and their complex narratives.


As a dedicated fan of “House of the Dragon,” I’ve eagerly anticipated each new episode, and the release of official images for the sixth episode of season 2 has only fueled my excitement further. Having closely analyzed the trailer frame by frame, I can’t help but feel a sense of intrigue and suspense as we approach this latest installment.

As an assistant with a background in medieval literature and a keen interest in all things related to the intricate world of Game of Thrones, I find the mysterious connection between Alys, the Harrenhal healer, and Daemon Targaryen quite intriguing. It’s not every day that we come across a healer who can claim to be an owl in human form, or a prince who finds himself stuck at a crumbling castle.

It looks like both Daemon and Alys are standing in the godswood of Harrenhal here.

On Dragonstone and in the Vale

At the same time, Rhaenyra Targaryen works to oversee her military campaign from the secluded fortress of Dragonstone.

I was thrilled to see in the trailer that she plans to wield both the sword and the shield to command respect in the upcoming episode.

In the previous installment, Corlys Velaryon was appointed as Rhaenyra’s personal advisor and right-hand person by the queen. He agreed to take on this role, and this time around, we will find him once again on Dragonstone.

We’ll additionally keep tabs on Rhaena, Corlys’ granddaughter, looking after Rhaenyra’s younger boys in the Vale.

In King’s Landing

In the end, we arrive at King’s Landing, a place that leaves me uneasy as I gaze at the images. King Aegon lies gravely ill after the Battle of Rook’s Rest, and his condition attracts quite a crowd. Among the unexpected visitors is Larys Strong, the Master of Whisperers.

Based on my own experiences and observations, I can’t help but feel uneasy when someone acts shady, like Larys here. The way he’s presented in this scenario, with a mysterious silhouette and vague responses to simple questions, sets off alarm bells for me. It’s not that I automatically distrust everyone who keeps things to themselves, but my past experiences have taught me to be cautious when dealing with individuals whose actions or behavior seem questionable. So yeah, I don’t trust Larys, and I believe it’s a wise approach to tread carefully around him until I have more information.

I’m even more anxious about Aegon’s impending visit from his brother Aemond. Aemond plays a significant role in explaining why Aegon is lying in that sickbed now.

I feel uneasy. I hope there’s a security guard nearby, out of view, ensuring everything stays safe.

At some point, Alicent Hightower may attempt to reason with her headstrong, one-eyed son, but I believe it will be as effective as trying to make a pebble dance or explaining calculus to a sewing needle. It’s quite a challenge.

In this instant, it seems that an encounter among Alicent, Aemond, Criston Cole, and Lord Jasper Wylde, at the very least, is taking place or has just concluded – possibly during or following a Small Council meeting.

As a gamer, I can assume that it will be less challenging for Alicent to converse with her brother Gwayne since he’s once more prepared for combat, donning his armor.
