Those who have read "Fire and Blood" weren't surprised to see Princess Rhaenys Targaryen, the Queen Who Never Was, and her dragon Meleys fall to Aemond Targaryen and Vhagar. But for "House of the Dragon" to fully commit to its devastating dragon war, fought between a woman with a rightful claim to the throne and her usurper younger half-brother, Rhaenys needed to die. Eve Best and Steve Toussaint as Rhaenys and Corlys Velaryon in season two, episode four of "House of the Dragon." Ollie Upton/HBOBut despite her acquiescence, the wrong of denying Rhaenys the throne hangs like a pall over "House of the Dragon," and Rhaenyra especially. When her husband, Lord Corlys Velaryon, brings up her denial of the throne, Rhaenys says that she shuttered her ambition "a generation ago."

Read previewWarning: Spoilers ahead for season two, episode four of "House of the Dragon," and the book "Fire and Blood." It's seemingly a ploy to lure one of Rhaenyra's dragons out, and it works: Rhaenyra sends Princess Rhaenys and her dragon Meleys, the "Red Queen." Unfortunately for Criston Cole and Aemond, his partner in crime, Aegon chooses that moment to take charge, flying into the battle on his dragon Sunfyre. In the book, Vhagar lights Aegon the Conqueror's funeral pyre, which incinerates his body but leaves his Valyrian steel blade, Blackfyre, unharmed. When Rhaenyra arrives, he promptly feeds her to his dragon, Sunfyre.
