Not only have characters shifted positions, but the audience has been moved as well, at the close of House of the Dragon's 8-episode season. Alicent sacrifices her name and son, Aegon Targaryen, to procure freedom for she, Helaena Targaryen, and Jaehaera Targaryen. Daemon Targaryen sacrifices his free spirit to serve the highest of purposes. Rhaenyra Targaryen sets aside The Conciliator, Jaehaerys Targaryen, and becomes Aegon The Conqueror, as all sides - and more - march to total war.
