The battle between the blacks and the greens has finally begun, and we cannot keep calm! Yes, the first episode of House of the Dragon season 3 is here, and we have thoughts. The premiere gave us dragon clashing with each other, politics inside the keeps of Kingslanding, and a death we were not prepared for. The classic Westeros fever has hit us, and here are some things that stayed with us. Read to know!

5 Thoughts On House Of The Dragon Season 3

1. The “Mad Targaryen” Look In Jace’s Eyes

We all saw Jace’s unfortunate death coming as soon as his eyes reeked of the need to prove himself as the true heir to his mother, Rhaenyra, as soon as we saw him lock her in the room. The moment he started acting like the future king, his fate was sealed, and his death wasn’t just heartbreaking; it changed the course of the war. We weren’t ready for this!

2. What Happened To Lord Corlys?

Just as Lord Corlys is finishing and winning his battle against the Triarchy’s forces under Admiral Lohar, the ship tragically throws him into the sea. The episode ends with no desperate attempt to swim or even some final words. Did he die? Did he survive? Who saved him? All these questions won’t get answered till the next Monday, and we are restless! But no one in this show is working harder than our Sea Snake, and we love it.

3. Rhaenyra Is Angrier Than Ever

We all saw her look after her younger son died, just imagine what she would do after she gets to know about Jace’s death. We’re trembling just thinking about it because you just have to multiply it by a thousand and add multiple dragons. Losing another son will push her into a dangerous territory and might even make the Greens a villain in this story because a mother knows no bounds.

4. Aemond Kissing Queen Alicent

Just when we were in the middle of chaos in Kingslanding, an intense conversation between Alicent Hightower and her son, Aemond Targaryen, kissed her, and we screamed. What was that? We know the Targaryens are incestuous, but this? But this might be stemming from his trauma as a child and the need for his mother’s approval as a second son. We are stunned!

5. The Entry Of House Stark

The North remembers, and so does the fandom. The arrival of House Stark might not have had much screen time, but it got all of us excited. There’s just something about the Starks walking into a room and making every Game of Thrones universe fan sit up.
