All Signs Point Towards War In House of the Dragon Episode 9 Trailer

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for House of the Dragon episode 8!

The king is dead. Long live the queen! But if Queen Alicent has her way, then Princess Rhaenyra will never take the Iron Throne. As seen in House of the Dragon episode 8, Alicent misinterpreted her final conversation with her late husband, Viscerys. She believes that he wanted her to install their son, Aegon, as the new king. Now, the House of the Dragon episode 9 trailer is exploring what happens next. And everything appears to be leaning towards war.

Although the trailer doesn’t show Rhaenyra’s reaction to her father’s death, it’s only a matter of time before she hears about it. In the meantime, Alicent and her father, Otto Hightower, have the opportunity to make their move. And only a few are brave enough to call their actions treason.
