7 Moments From House Of The Dragon That Left Us Speechless, Ranked
We are stunned by the show no less than the Westeros creator himself.
George R.R. Martin admitted his love the first season, and we decided to bring up the most memorable moments from it while we are waiting for the sequel.
7. Vaemond Velaryon's Swift Death
The death of one of the show's major characters was quite shocking, but wasn't it deserved?
After Vaemond Velaryon named Rhaenyra's children bastards and her…a woman of easy virtue, Daemon couldn't help himself but behead a traitor.
But when it comes to protecting your women, who are we to judge?
6. Standoff At Dragonstone
Daemon was fully aware that he couldn't get away with stealing a valuable dragon egg and stay unnoticed.
As we watch him and Otto Hightower argue over the stolen and expect to see blood spill, the suspense of the scene increases with every second, giving us goosebumps.
But before we become victims of a bloody fight, Rhaenyra appears on a dragon and convinces her uncle to give the egg back.
5. Family Feuding
We finally get everything we've been waiting for in one of the most moving scenes of the season. Writers put so much effort into this 5-minute masterpiece to leave all the fans speechless.
We finally see Alicent and Rhaenyra's heated clash, with Alicent demanding to take an eye from Lucerys' eye as payment for her son Aemond's.
So much drama and we love it!
4. Ruin Of The Triarchy
The whole battle in Step Stones was filmed brilliantly, as we see Daemon ripping apart his enemies and confirming the status of a powerful warrior, who was able to attack Triarchy army all alone.
The battle finishes with Daemon's dragon appearing and making it all clear that the fight is completely lost for Triarchy.
3. Viserys' Last Supper
King Viserys and his truly kind heart made us all feel for him during the show. Everything Viserys ever wanted was his family to be close and make amends.
And in his final moments, it appears like he receives what he desired as we watch his family laughing and dancing with each other.
But as soon as King's health gets worse and he is led to his chambers, we realize that there is no chance for a further family union.
2. King Viserys' Entrance
This emotional scene broke our hearts into a million pieces.
And not just because we see how bad and painful Viserys' condition is, but also, despite this, he still manages to enter the throne room to protect his daughter Rhaenyra.
There is nothing like a father's love…
1. Aemond Vs. Lucerys
Aemond Targaryen and Lucerys Velaryon couldn't seem to have anything beautiful since their mothers were enemies. The feeling of disrespect to each other has always been in the air and their battle was just about the time.
The unfortunate dragon fight kills Lucerys and makes no way back but to start the Dance of the Dragons.
