House of the Dragon Plot Details
The storyline of House of the Dragon was adapted from George R.R. Martin’s novel, Fire & Blood, which took place 200 years before the Game of Thrones storyline. As the story begins with Aegon’s Conquest, the Iron Throne was established over much of Westeros and a new world order was established over much of the continent. From then on, the Seven Kingdoms are ruled by the Targaryen dynasty (both good and evil).
From all th official clips, it looks like the upcoming game of thrones prequel is set to explore the civil war between Aegon II and his half-sister, Princess Rhaenyra.
Through the series, you should be ready to face battles, witness gory scenes and most important of all dragons. Besides, that’s everything you’d want to see in a Martin show.
