Aemond Wins While Rhaenyra Falls Apart | House of the Dragon S2E5 Season 3 Prep

We rewatched House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 5, “Regent,” as Season 3 approaches, and yeah — this is where it starts looking like Aemond’s war now. The aftermath of royal bloodshed rocks the realm. RIP Rhaenys & Meleys. Aegon turns out like Westerosi Darth Vader, but the maesters only got cabbage. Poor hungry peasants are teased by the aroma of roast king. Alicent realizes the throne room was never really hers. Rhaenyra is trapped in a cage of prudent safety while her council doubts her, her husband is off playing haunted warlord, and the Greens hand the wheel to the most dangerous man in the family. Aemond the “good son” gets the regency. Daemon goes WAR CRIMINAL ALREADY! RIVERLAND REVOLT! Me and Pearish peep the game of power, consequences, and dark character decisions as House Targaryen keeps proving that family drama hits different when everybody has dragons. #HouseOfTheDragon #HOTD #RollForReaction
