It’s almost time now. The much-awaited spin-off of HBO’s hit fantasy series Game of Thrones is now only a little more than one month away. ‘House of the Dragon’ which is adapted from the 2018 novel of G.R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood’, will tell the story of events that happened two hundred years prior to that of ‘Game of Thrones.

Long before Daenerys Targaryen set off with her Dothraki horde and unsullied army accompanied by her three dragon children to take over the Iron Throne of Westeros, her ancestors rules the entire land.

It was the time when no Lannister lord had the whip of power over Westeros, no Baratheon gained much prominence, and no Stark made much impression on the South far away from their home in the North.

At that time only one house held absolute power- the house of Targaryen. But power was not only a blessing for the Targaryens. Instead, it is the power that precisely led the Targaryens to fight with each other that culminated in the civil war of Targaryen which is correctly known as the “Dance of the Dragons.

The plot of the series will focus on the formation and the potential clash between the two Targaryen groups which will eventually be known as the Green and the Black.

The fifth king of the Seven Kingdoms, King Viserys I chooses her eldest daughter Rhaenyra to be queen after his death. But when afterward he married Lady Alicent Hightower, Rhaneyra’s best friend of childhood and daughter of the Hand of the King, three sons are born though Viserys’ choice remains unchanged.

But after his death, his eldest son Aegon demands the throne for himself which causes the infamous internal battle among the Targaryens. The Velaryon house also gets featured in the series through the introduction of the famous “Sea Snake”.

There are a number of other ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-offs announced already which makes the wait for ‘House of the Dragon’ more exciting. Also, one of the most loved fantasy series of all time ‘Game of Thrones’ disappointed most of the viewers terribly in its final season.

The success of ‘House of the Dragon’ and the once glorious portrayal of the House Targaryen will probably make them forget about that disappointment. The first season of the ‘House of the Dragon’ will air on HBO with ten episodes on August 21, 2022.

Let us find out about the previous films and tv series of the cast members of the upcoming House of the Dragon.
