Welcome to 'House of the Dragon' recaps! In the fourth episode, 'King of the Narrow Sea,' Daemon returns to King’s Landing, things get hot and heavy during a debaucherous night on the Street of Silk and Alicent isn’t so thrilled to be the only responsible royal around. Here’s all the latest from Westeros.
In fact, "King of the Narrow Sea" ends with Rhaenyra at her wildest: indirectly insulting Alicent, who she has finally patched up a feud with; almost having sex with her uncle ; then bedding her Kingsguard Ser Cristen Cole . Maybe most shocking of all, she then quite convincingly lies about all these actions on her late mother’s grave.
We’ve already seen Rhaenyra cruel, as she laughs at a poor boy who is trying to live up to his parents’ expectations, and now we’re seeing her entitlement and recklessness. She’s not a perfect princess, and she doesn’t want to be. It’s kind of great. Rhaenyra’s antics get Daemon deservedly kicked out of King’s Landing,, after he gained his way back into the Targaryen fold by winning the Stepstones.
Indeed, one of the more intriguing grace notes of the episode involves Rhaenyra’s unexpected sense of power. Despite getting punished for her indiscretions by being forced to wed her father’s choice of suitor, she still holds her own, demanding Otto’s resignation as her price. Otto’s departure means there’s a power vacuum for the position of Hand of the King.
