The Dance of the Dragons has officially begun! The penultimate episode of House of the Dragon<\/a> ended on a jaw-dropping note as the coronation of King Aegon II<\/a> (Tom Glynn-Carney) ended in a formidable declaration of war.<\/p>\n The festivities came to an abrupt end when Princess Rhaenys<\/a> (Eve Best) burst through the ceiling on dragon-back, and very nearly wipes out the new ruler, his mother Alicent Hightower<\/a> and their allies.<\/p>\n In the end, cooler heads prevail, but the episode sets up what is sure to be a blockbuster finale, when Prince Daemon<\/a> and Princess Rhaenyra<\/a> will return and make their first moves in this long-brewing civil war.<\/p>\n Our companion show Beyond the Dragon is back to unpack these latest developments, with Drama Editor Abby Robinson<\/a> and Writer David Craig<\/a> giving their thoughts and predictions on what could happen next.<\/p>
