"House of the Dragon" threw one new fascinating character in its season two finale that will have great importance down the line — Triarchy Admiral Lohar. But to do so, he has to win the respect of Admiral Lohar, the commander of the Triarchy fleet. Toward the end of the episode, Lohar and Tyland sail together with the Triarchy fleet, presumably bound for the Velaryon blockade. Eventually, a captain from Tyrosh captures him — but it's Fleet Admiral Sharako Lohar who claims him as a prisoner. In addition to attacking the Velaryon fleet, the Triarchy forces also made land on Driftmark, attacking a town called Spicetown.
