Final Thoughts
She must fortify the relationship with her supporters to help ensure her ascent to the throne, or else she risks finding her neck at the end of a sword, along with her children, while Rhaenyra and Daemon rush back to King’s Landing to prepare for her father’s death and probably defend it.
The Queen’s mistrust and loathing of the heir apparent have forced her into a life-or-death situation, even though Rhaenyra had earlier allowed Alicent to unite their families through the marriage of their offspring, ensuring her children’s safety.
As the first season of House of the Dragon draws to a close, and the family battle appears imminent, viewers should prepare for the impending death and loss.
