House of the Dragon Episode 9 release date is making the fans really curious right now and thus, we are here to break it all down for you guys. This week’s episode made us too emotional to even carry on with the series. Without Paddy Considine as King Viserys, there will be a vacant spot in our hearts. He truly moved the fans with his amazing skills in this episode as a dying father who just wanted to see his family united.
At the start, we see Rhaenyra and Daemon enter the Red Keep as they feel right at home but somehow different. The episode had again seen a time jump where the kids have now grown up to be young adults. The Velaryon kids are now supposed to marry the Targaryen ones, the daughters of Laena and they look really happy to do so.
Also, there is considerable hostility between Rhaenyra and Allicent after the scene where she practically tried to kill her. Daemon and Rhaenyra meet with the King and he is delighted to see the kids that she has with his brother. They even named him Viserys. Also, on Driftmark, Vaemond Velaryon makes a claim to the throne while Princess Rhaenys is ruling in her husband’s name.
In King’s Landing, it is Allicent and Ser Otto who do the same in the name of the King as he is sick. Well, Vaemond forms an alliance with the Greens so that they name him the heir instead of Lucerys Targaryen whom he seems to believe is a bastard and not of true Velaryon blood. Although, in court, when King Viserys appears out of the blue, it is obvious that he is about to take Rhaenyra’s side.
House of the Dragon Episode 8 Recap
Princess Rhaenys and her have already talked the plan through but she was holding back because she knows nothing can be done because how Allicent will never favor the Targaryens. As for Vaemond, he gets killed by Daemon as he speaks ill of Rhaenyra and her children. Later that night, a supper is arranged for the entire royal family where the King talks about how war is for the weak and that they should remain strong within themselves to preserve the true legacy of House Targaryen.
Rhaenyra too raises a toast to Allicent as the two seem to be clear of their differences during an emotional moment. Viserys thinks that his family is finally together as all of them are having a great time. As he is escorted back to his chamber, a fight erupts between the kids as Aemond was constantly harassing the Velaryons. By the end of the episode, we see that Viserys is taking his very last breaths. Allicent comes in so as to comfort him and give him milk of the poppy. He thinks that he is talking to Rhaenyra about the Song of Ice and Fire and when she asked him if it was true.
But Allicent picks up the words such as Aegon, prophecy, and legacy and thinks that Viserys wants her son to sit on the throne too rather than Rhaenyra because she has never heard the song or the prophecy. But Viserys wanted Rhaenyra to know that she is the hope for him and the realm. In the end, he dies while calling out to Aemma as his love. Well, this was all for the episode, and let us now discuss what the next episode holds for us.
