 House of the Dragon Episode 8: What to Expect

Prepare for another time jump as HOTD episode 8 seems to forward the timeline by another eight or so years, bringing the Targaryen and Velaryon royal heirs from youth to adulthood. The upcoming episode titled “The Lord of the Tides” which has a history of swiftly and brutally murdering people, may feature the demise of a significant character. The teaser makes indications about the departure of another character as well as perhaps a significant departure from the show’s source material, even though it doesn’t go into specifics about what has happened to Corlys.

“Who will take the Driftwood throne?” The main plot of the program would be significantly altered if Lord Corlys Velaryon – the sea snake (Steve Toussaint) were to be killed off. despite the fact that the production has already departed from its original material, most notably by deciding not to kill off a crucial character in episode seven. The Sea Snake does not perish at this point in the original Fire & Blood by George RR Martin but rather plays a significant part in the impending Dance of the Dragons civil war.

Another death would be significantly King Viserys Targaryen, whose deteriorating health has been troubling him since the beginning of the season, is noticeably missing from the trailer. The Hand of King Otto Hightower momentarily takes the King’s place on the throne while his absence is left unaddressed. The eighth episode of House of the Dragon will be helmed by Geeta Vasant Patel and written by Eileen Shim, who also serves as the show’s producer and wrote the screenplay.

Is there a promo for House of the Dragon: Episode 8?

HBO has published the latest House of the Dragon featurette and promo, which promises to be just as spectacular as the previous episode. Fans can get a good idea of what is coming next week from this new trailer. Otto Hightower on the Iron Throne: Rhys Ifans’s character holds court in front of the Iron Throne as a ship sails to King’s Landing. Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) chafes, with Jace (Harry Collett) and Baela (Bethany Antonia) following her. Otto is enthroned on the Iron Throne.

Rhaenyra stares at Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney), Aemond (Ewan Mitchell), Helaena (Phia Saban), Alicent (Olivia Cooke),and Otto  while Rhaenys (Eve Best) states in voiceover, “Tomorrow, the Hightowers land their first blow.” Rhaenyra tells Daemon, “Those vipers govern in my father’s name” Daemon responds, “To King’s Landing then.” Someone approaches a sleeping individual. A master uses a medical device. Rhaenys faces a candle wall. Daemon states in voiceover, “The Sea Snake was wounded in the Stepstones.” Raymond Velaryon seems pleased. Aemond fights Ser Criston Cole (Fabien Frankel) in the training yard before returning to Rhaenys. Who will rule Driftwood?

Viserys (Paddy Considine) remarks off-screen, “The crown can’t be powerful if the Dragon’s House is divided.” A shot of the Red Keep’s facade is followed by gates opening and Lucerys (Elliot Grihault) looks worried. “This is a matter of blood, not ambition,” someone says as Daemon chooses a dragon egg, Otto ascends the Iron Throne, and Jacerys bangs on a dinner table with Aegon next to him.  A cloaked stranger approaches Mysaria in a garden. Rhaenyra replies, “This is a trap,” and we see Lucerys looking apprehensive. Rhaenyra’s and Alicent’s kids fight at dinner. Vaemond arrives with Velaryon soldiers. Watch the trailer below.
