George Martin’s world is often astonishing for its sudden deaths, political intrigue, and bloody battles, but many fans are fascinated by the appearance of charming dragons, whose greatness often overshadows the main characters.
House of the Dragon is the latest addition to the Game of Thrones franchise.
The show is set to explore the history of House Targaryen, specifically the events that led to the civil war in Westeros known as the Dance of the Dragons.
The first season of the show premiered in 2022, and fans are already speculating which creatures will be featured in the second installment.
The dragons in the series are expected to play a major role in the story. The Targaryens are known for their ability to control the beasts, and they have been a symbol of their power since the beginning of their reign.
The beasts in the show are expected to be as important as the characters themselves.
According to a recent Reddit thread, there’s a good chance that the show will feature some of the most famous dragons in Westeros history.
Fans are eagerly awaiting flashbacks to Balerion, also known as the Black Dread. He was the largest and most fearsome creature to ever exist in the Game of Thrones universe.
However, Sunfyre is the most likely to appear in the series. The winged beast was ridden by Aegon II during the Dance of the Dragons.
Sunfyre was known for his beauty, but also for his ferocity and tendency to be unpredictable.
Fans also suggest that Silverwing and Tessarion will be introduced in season 2. Silverwing is the firebreather under control of Queen Alysanne, one of the most beloved Targaryen leaders in the Westeros history.
Meanwhile, Tessarion, a she-dragon with dark cobalt wings and copper claws, is also a famous flaming creature of great beauty, the beast of Prince Daeron I, a controversial claimant to the Iron Throne.
If she appears in the series, she might be one of the most beautiful dragons in the Game of Thrones prequel.
Many viewers are also eager to see a forest-green Sheepstealer, a dragon of his name, the creature that steals the sheep of the Riverlanders, and was hunted down and killed by Prince Daemon Targaryen.
Fans are eagerly awaiting season 2 of the show, hoping to see beast battles on screen. And boy there will be plenty of those, since the Dance of the Dragons is entering its most heated stage.
