Leaked Spoiler Of House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 8, Rhaenyra Reunite With Daemon

In the leaked final episode clips of House of the Dragon, Rhaenyra, accompanied by another dragon, flew on her dragon to Harrenhal to meet Daemon.

She first flies to Driftmark to meet her hand, Corlys Velaryon. There, Corlys advises her to take King’s Landing before the Hightowers arrive with daemon and his Dragon Tessarion, stating:

“My ships sail at your command. The Hightowers are marching, and we must crush this beast at its head.”

Later, we see Corlys and his son sailing their ship to battle with full armor toward the capital.

In the next scene, we finally see Daeron Targaryen riding his Dragon, Tessarion, with the Hightower host.

At the beginning of episode 8, we see Rhaenyra having dinner with Jacaerys and Baela with all the new Dragonriders.

She discusses her plans and states:

“We must break the will of our enemy. I have entrusted you with power only a few have known. We must strike while we have the advantage.”

Then, before leaving Harrenhal, Daemon surveys a huge enemy he has gathered and gives them an epic speech saying:

“We fight for our queen, and for every one of us who falls a hundred of them. There will be no mercy…”

In the next scene, Aemond flies his dragon and burns down the entire place that has declared itself for Rhaenyra and everyone there.

Aemond Strategy Involving Healena, Wife of King Aegon II in the War Effort

Aemond tries to get Helaena and her dragon Dreamfyre to fight with him and grabs her hand forcefully before Alicent steps in.

Later, Aemond and Helaena share another scene in which she reveals significant spoilers, stating she knows he burned Aegon and that she will die at the God’s Eye.

She also mentions that Aegon will see victory and sit on a wooden throne. Meanwhile, Aegon and Larys have a conversation in which Larys informs Aegon about Aemond burning a town loyal to Rhaenyra.

In another scene, Alys tells Daemon to place his hand on the weirwood tree, which leads him to a vision of Daenerys with her eggs, the back of her head visible.

He also sees the Night King and his army watching, along with a dead dragon. Heleana appears in this vision, mentioning something about playing a part, and Daemon sees Rhaenyra sitting on the throne.

Bloodraven is also present in the vision, identifiable by his birthmark.

In the next leaked clips, Rhaena discovers Sheepstealer, who looks really rough, but we don’t see her ride him.

Daemon pledges his loyalty to Rhaenyra, kneeling before her and rallying the Riverlands army in her name.

Rhaenyra and Alicent meet at Dragonstone, where Alicent reveals that Aemond is off to Harrenhal with Cole, and with Heleana as queen, she will open the gates for her.

Rhaenyra questions if Aegon would bend the knee, and while Alicent believes he will listen, Rhaenyra remains skeptical, still defending him. The clip cuts off at this point.

The final montage shows armies marching along with their fleets from both sides.

The Triarchy supports the greens, while the Velaryons support the blacks. Otto is locked up in a dungeon, and Tessarion is with the Hightower army.

Aegon escapes King’s Landing in a cart. The final shot shows Alicent looking out into the dusk after meeting Rhaenyra.
