Rhaenyra, meanwhile, has left her council fighting in her absence and almost completely dysfunctional. Rhaenys attempts to restore order but it’s only her husband, Corlys (Steven Toussaint), who manages to achieve that; an ominous sign for Rhaenyra’s own efforts to exercise a strong hand on the throne. When she finally returns, she eventually manages to quell the in-fighting, and agrees to send Rhaenys to defend her Rook’s Rest – both her ally’s seat and a key land link for her Dragonstone base. Even now the show emphasizes that she does so reluctantly. “To unite the realm I had to send the dragons to war. The horrors I have just unleashed cannot just be for a crown alone.” For Rhaenyra, it’s still all about the song of ice and fire prophecy and the Prince Who Was Promised (though there’s no way of knowing which family line he or she will come from, of course).

He finds the grace notes to play here, and does a good job of shifting between political machinations and outright warfare. He’s also tapped into the malevolent sides of Daemon, Larys, and especially Aemond. The latter is standing over his brother with a sword when Criston arrives to help, eliminating the possibility of any coup de grace. But somehow even from the back he looks smug. The day saw him destroy a leader of the Blacks and a rival dragon, take out an enemy stronghold and possibly contrive the death of his underachieving older brother. It’s no surprise he looks pleased with himself. He and his family have finally unleashed the beasts on each other. If the rest of the season follows this episode’s lead, we’re in for a treat.

It's a good episode all around. We get one more scene of fondness between Rhaenys and Corlys before she goes off to battle, with the notably sane Rhaenys correctly figuring out that Rhaenyra has disappeared on some sort of peace mission, and encouraging her husband – reading between the lines – to acknowledge his bastard sons now that he lacks a legitimate surviving male heir. There’s an even more poignant moment at the end when she and Meleys share a look as Vhagar’s teeth sink into her dragon’s neck and they both know they’re done for.
