![‘House of the Dragon’: Targaryens Are on the Brink of War as [SPOILER] Sits on the Iron Throne](https://i.headtopics.com/images/2022/10/17/variety/house-of-the-dragon-targaryens-are-on-the-brink-of-house-of-the-dragon-targaryens-are-on-the-brink-of-1581827457564364800.webp)
SPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you haven’t watched Episode 9 of “House of the Dragon,” titled “The Green Council.” King Viserys is dead, long live King Aegon! Season 1 …
Season 1 of “House of the Dragon” barrels toward an explosive finale next Sunday, as the battle lines are further drawn between the greens and the blacks. The penultimate episode didn’t feature Rhaenyra Targaryen or her side of the impending civil war, instead focusing on how Alicent Hightower and her supporters usurped the Iron Throne and ushered in the new, somewhat reluctant, King Aegon II Targaryen .
Things get tense at the late-night council meeting, where some of the Viserys loyalists, like Harrold Westerling and Lyman Beesbury , are outraged at the reversal of Viserys’ succession plan. In response, Criston Cole smashes Lyman’s head to the table, killing him instantly. It’s another shocking death after Daemon Targaryen murdered Vaemond Velaryon last episode, and further proof that heads will roll and no one is safe in Westeros.
Meanwhile, with all this talk about the king, nobody has been able to find Aegon and tell him the good news, so Alicent and Otto send out two different teams to find him. Alicent dispatches Criston and one-eyed Aemond Targaryen , and Otto sends twin knights Arryk and Erryk Cargyll . Criston and Aemond check out one of Aegon’s favorite brothels and stumble upon an illicit, underground child-fighting ring, but they don’t find the young king.
Otto ends up getting a tip about Aegon’s whereabouts from Mysaria , Daemon’s former mistress who has been assembling her own network of “little birds.” She tells him where Aegon is, but, in return, Otto must shut down the child-fighting ring and owe her a favor. The Cargylls find Aegon, who’s hiding from his responsibility, and they have a sword fight against Criston and Aemond.
