HOUSE OF THE DRAGON Made a Notorious Targaryen a Big Part a New Dragonrider’s Story
Rhaenyra Targaryen’s desire for dragon riders was fulfilled in the second last episode of “House of the Dragon” season two. With this newfound power, Rhaenyra has never been more formidable. However, unbeknownst to her, “Fire & Blood” readers are aware that she owes the addition of one of her dragonriders to a notorious relative. This relative is none other than Saera Targaryen, played by Milly Alcock, who was previously shunned as an outcast in House Targaryen. Saera is King Jaehaerys’s daughter and Hugh Hammer’s mother, a character with an intriguing past that adds significant depth to the history of House Targaryen. Thanks to her bastard son, Saera now holds more importance than we ever imagined.
