And so began the war...Aemond didn't understand his dragon. He thought they were only "teasing" in a sense. But Vhagar is a war dragon. You can tell it was on the hunt to kill. Aemond was immature and clueless.
Exactly. He was ignorant to the fact she was literally one of the three monsters Aegon the Conqueror used to bring the seven kingdoms to heel. She’d fought many battles, was literally bred for war and killing.
@@GreatOldOne9866 Yes and Visenya was also said to be a warrior and ised Vhagar to fight all the time. It was obvious even before Arrax shot the blast that Vhagar is in it to kill.
pretty sure she was on board with the "scare them only" up until she got attacked by the fire. then it was like "nah bitch ik i'm the best and i aint gonna let some tiny peasant get away with hitting me, do you even know who i am" cuz lowkey to her that attack was more disrespect than actually damaging
@Ebrahim Mostafa it's in their nature. And if ur referring to Vhagar's viciousness, being blown fire in the face isn't really granny's fave thing. Aside from that, she's a war dragon so all hell broke loose when Arrax blew flames on her face.
That's going to be the saddest part of the show, seeing all the dragons die. The war basically ends them as the Targaryen's war machines due to losses.
@@kunik61 well, let's see: Killing of a non military target killing of a minor killing of diplomat And kin-slaying on the behalf of Aemond (very bad juju in Westerosi culture)
2:15 this scene is scary as hell. the way vhagar is shown gives me jurassic park vibes somehow. look at the size of that beast compared to anything else. arrax was probably frightened to be out there alone waiting for luke to return...
If I had a nickel for every time three dragons are shown leaving Dragonstone and one of them dies that episode, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't much but it's weird it happened twice.
least the death was actually jsutified and sensible this time. Not only was it ALREADY proven that the scorpion bolts couldnot pierce dragons bdeep enough to harm them, it somehow hit him from impossible distances with pointpoint accuracy AROUND A FUCKIN ROCK!. Here it is the fool of a leader unable to keep his dragon in control which lead to it killing a younger dragon and its rider.
First time Dany left dragonstone with all of her dragons, Viserion died, killed by the night king. Second time Dany left with her remaining dragons, Rhaegal got injured in the long night but later killed by a scorpion bolt when returning to Dragonstone. Third time Dany left Dragonstone with her dragon, the mother of dragons herself was killed.
just noticed seeing syrax roaring in anger when she landed and Rhaenyra pissed off at seeing them too. oof at caraxes arm wing slipping down the boulder.
I legit go insane and loves Caraxes sounds. It’s so cute. For now I’ll pet my beardie and imagine . Although w his leash he looks like a dragon w wings
I remember when I first saw Arrax land at 2:07 and thinking "Those guards really should be more phased by a dragon landing in front of them." I wondered if it had been some sort of mistake/miscommunication between the director(s) and CGI team. But then it cuts to Vhagar in the background and I realised these guards must have all just recovered from seeing THAT monstrosity turn up. At that point fair enough Arrax really isn't going to phase you all that much, so I'm pretty sure them ignoring Arrax was intentional.
Actually this was the first time when two dragon riders faced each other as enemies (atleast that's what their dragons thought ) and till now dragons only destroyed the enemy soldiers or their castles, so for dragons it was something new , something for which they were never trained before, so the impulsive behaviour took control over their judgement
I took it as Arrex being so terrified he flamed Vhagar. Vhagar was not having any of that bleep and took care of business. Vhagar obeys Aemond when she wants to, he has no real control over her.
In the series, but in the book Maelor faced his brother Aenys and the description of the fight is very similar to the fight we see in the show between Arrax and Vhagar. Maelor's ride was Balerion and Aenys's ride was a she dragon just a little bigger than Arrax called Azogue
Saw it too…..very funny! But notice that despite the slip he never takes his eyes off the 2 soldiers. Brilliant attention to detail from the show creators.
*Her* It is a production error. Syrax should have been bigger. Nyra has been on Dragonstone for 6 years now and the dragons roam free there, there is no pit. Dragons do not stop growing, even in chains. The issue with the last dragon was that it was always kept in a cage, therefore having no wing or exercise space available. The dragons of HotD were flown regularly and given plenty of food and exercise. Syrax is said to be one of the largest dragons on the side of Team Blacks. She was massive. Just like the direwolves in GoT, Syrax was looked over in favor of us getting to see Vermithor.
Reminds me of war dogs. War dogs will only respect it's owner/handler if the owner/handler earns it. Vaghar is a mega giant war dog that breathes fire and flies.
They mention briefly how dragons held in captivity grow rather slower and possibly smaller. But in reality (no spoilers) the later generations of dragons did not even have a chance to age as much and grow bigger because of all the events taking place in the dance of the dragons. Balerion, Vhagar, these older beasts are far larger than any that came after and are like 200years old. Syrax was a young small dragon with no previous rider when Rhaenyra bonded with it. Syrax can’t even be 30 somethings years old. Sorry for geeking out, but the lore GRRM has created is incredible.
Vhagar snapped Arrax like a twig. How about as a rule in the dance we keep the tiny ones in the back burning down the houses that opposed Rhaenyra while the big ones converge on Kings Landing?
3:50 VHAGAR NO! sis should know that Vhagar is war dragon. If he just to chased or scared him he should command someone and with the same size of Arrax. And if there is available.
0:09 To be able to pose like this is definitely why I would want a dragon. Otherwise, literally the only thing I would care about is if my nuclear lizard is getting enough exercise, snackies, and scritches.
These dragons are super cool but Drogon still looks more convincing. Does HotD use a different animation studio than GoT? Or maybe it's the more grounded designs that made Daenerys' dragons look so realistic
Honestly Now that I’ve seen the whole season numerous times now, I can safely say the dragon scenes were for the most part pretty solid, when there front facing or side facing they are amazing, air or ground, but they need to work on the legs and back portion in general, the scenes of Caraxes especially from behind are kind of rough, the legs and tail seem very fake with little to no detail in some areas, definitely needs work and the scene with Meleys squeezing through the door for some reason at the dragon pit, very awkward looking.
Realistically,animals that size would require an enormous food supply which,unless they feed in fish,would mean the would strip the countryside bare of sheep,cattle and whatever else they could hunt down.
To be honest, Aemond was a fool for teasing Luke like that. I mean, you're riding what is probably the most powerful and battle-scarred dragon alive. If you go goose hunting you're *really* expecting she won't go for the kill?
This is Vermithor, he was the dragon of King Jahaerys, the grandfather of Viserys, Rhaenys and Daemon. Currently, he is the second largest dragon in Westeros after Vhagar. However, after the death of Jahaerys, Vermithor resides on Dragonstone and is unclaimed.
Your theory is 50/50. Maybe when the Dance starts do the dragons get provoked into battle, but that is not necessarily true for all dragons and their riders. The bond is deep yes, but most dragons, outside of Caraxes and Vhagar, hadn’t seen battle with each other. Even Balerion didn’t irritate or fight with Vhagar or Meraxes and they were all battle hardened dragons. Arrax wasn’t provoked by Luce. Luce was trying to calm him down as soon as he was out the Storm’s End hall. He spoke to him in high Valyrian telling him to ”calm down”, “listen to me” and “pay attention”. Luce didn’t want a fight at all. His main goal was getting them home. Arrax was frightened of Vhagar (a larger and more menacing dragon) and the fear the felt by Luce. After Vhagar kept attacking them due to Aemond’s ignorance of Vhagar’s temperament, only then did Arrax blast the fire towards Vhagar. He acted out of his own accord, Luce didn’t want that. He scolded Arrax the moment it happened. Arrax simply reacted in a way that is conducive to a dragon of his size and age. The issue is with the antagonist ways of Aemond and not understanding Vhagar is her own being. He has no knowledge of Vhagar and her initial purpose. Vhagar’s age and again, temperament is something to be noted. She was born and bred for battle, she was used to hunt and rain down hell. She is the only remaining dragon from Aegon’s Conquest. That fire from Arrax is a reminder of the carnage and war days, especially from Dorne. Baelon and Laena are the only riders of out of Vhagar’s 4 that didn’t use her for battle. Not even Daenerys provoked her dragons to battle unless she really needed to. and when she did, she only used Drogon. But, even Drogon is not exempt for acting on of his own accord. Example of that is when he killed that the little girl of the farmer and kept eating the sheep. He also ran away on his own while Viserion and Rhaegal stayed with their mother and were imprisoned for a deed they did not commit. Daenerys didn’t know if they would do the same crime Drogon did.
@@M.Elle- Drogon was an Alpha and therefor more headstrong than Viserion and Rhaegal. He had several times he got snappish, literally, at Daenerys. Vhagar I look at as the same, very much an Alpha. I think she was content to terrorize Arrax until he had the gall to actually attack her, then it was on, and Aemond is not strong enough(not much more than a strong beta) to make her do anything.
I bet in the worst cases, Vhagar would just fly off to Essos, eat a few farms worth of cattle there, or a bit further: plenty of Horses(and Dothraki) in the Great Grass Sea for example? There'd undoubtedly be farmers in the Crownlands, merely growing and breeding cattle, just for the dragons alone...
vhagar luikely hunted for what she could. its possible she went from hunting landbeasts and began focusing on aquatic prey too, snatch up a shark or two. why she kept by the ocean.
The one and only major problem I have with any off the dragons in this series is some off there roars dragons like caraxes and syrax I think sound sick caraxes has this sort off shriek with a slightly high pitched scream then syrax sounds like a very low case elephant but when it comes to say vhagar for example her roar is just underwhelming in the books she was said to have a roar so loud it could shake storms end but in the series she has a very low bellow I understand why they done this to make the dragons more realistic vocal cords on a animal that size would be very low and just loud by default not because it’s particularly dependent on there species the best real world example off this would be the dachshund small but has one off the loudest barks out off all k9’s but that small lord break for some reason bothers more I do also think they made vhagar a little to small I think she was confirmed to be around 150 meters long so that would put her wingspan at anywhere from 250 to 300 meters personally I think she should have been around 200 maybe 175 not for the sakes off her but to cement how large balerion was because if vhagar is almost the size off him then his descriptions off him being able to eat mammoths are not only far fetched there just wrong since balerion would need to be at least 200 meters maybe even 250 to swallow a mammoth apart from that I love this series can’t wait for the next season
The Dragon Pits or Keeping Dragons in a Cage is really not Helpful. It slows them and keeps them small in size. Helps in preventing nearby people or animals from being killed though. But it really stunted their growth.
Vhagar never obeyed Aemond, Aemond never intended to kill Luke. You can see it on his face, he was completely shocked by what happened, he even tried shouting at Vhagar to stop but of course, he spoke in English and not Valyrian, so she did not listen. I don't think she would have listened, regardless. Vhagar is the largest and oldest dragon at this time, she is a war veteran and Aemond has little to no control over her. A dragon needs to respect the rider in order to obey them, if they sense any kind of weakness they will not listen. Aemond simply wanted to scare Luke here, but Vhagar was there to prove that she is not going to be used as a tool for children's petty squabbling and that being a dragon rider is not meant to be fun and games.
It's not about that. Arrax disobeyed Luke as well because it was scared. That happened to show that Viserys was right about them controlling the dragons being an illusion. Dragons bond but they also have their own will.
When Daemon does the dragon roll call in this episode he mentions the three wild dragons on Dragonstone The Three dragons he are referring to are Grey Ghost, Sheep-stealer, and The Cannibal Grey ghost would be killed and partially eaten by sunfyre, but everyone blamed Cannibal, because well Cannibal, sheepstealer would be claimed nettles and would survive the dance and may be alive during GoT The Cannibal wouldn’t be claimed due to the Cannibal being hyper aggressive and killing everything and everyone in its path. He may also be alive because if he was born before Balerion, he could be alive, because balerion didn’t just die because of old age. He was also attacked and was weak The Cannibal was never attacked and never fought so it pretty much sat around all the time If he was born after he would probably be alive and hell in the Jon Snow tv show either sheepstealer or cannibal could show up, I just want Jon to have a dragon.
You might wanna put a spoiler tag at the start for anyone who just watched the episode and simply wanted to revisit these scenes. I love fire & blood but there's a large influx of new fans whos till haven't gotten around to reading it, first season just ended days ago.
I feel they are rushing things with this series and although we know what is to come, there should be some developments. Also some of the dragons seem like they aern't growing at all?! Drogon and even Viserion and Rhaegal where bigger than some of these dragons that are older than Dany's dragons.
the dragons on GoT looked so much cooler and also sounded so much more like actual dragons and not squeeching chairs, the only sick dragon in house of the dragon is vhagar
Aryxx made a mistake by blowing fire on Vhagar.....Now Vhagar has to pay big amount of pain for punishing aryxx.....you see everything in life is a circle 🔴😇✌️
Because he was? Arrax was probably like a decade old, Vhagar is a 180 year old war dragon. it makes sense that Arrax is dwarfed by Vhagar. Arrax was basically a 3yr old toddler compared to a 30yr old football player
Why did they make Vhagar such a disgusting creature? Those blobs of leather and fat make her seem like if she was a Walrus. Did they want to make her look more creepy? Because I can't see any reason for why did they decide that this design would fit the largest and most powerful dragon in this story. She looks like a rotting carcass, not a majestic and powerful creature
@@dw3134 Of course I would, but that is regardless of the outlook. Elephants aren't scary looking either, but their size makes them scary. Vhagar looks entirely different from the other dragons, the designers wanted to make her unique, and they ended up with this design. This design doesn't work for her, because it just doesn't align with her story. She looks like if she was a monstrosity made by some dark lord like Sauron, she looks evil and corrupted or something like that. She doesn't command respect with this design, it only makes her look disfigured.
@@kieranpeck9890 Dragons are not humans, they are magical creatures so it doesn't make sense for her to age like this. She also doesn't have the same skin as humans do either
Aemond : “ I want his eye ! “

He spoke to him in high Valyrian telling him to ”calm down”, “listen to me” and “pay attention”. Luce didn’t want a fight at all. His main goal was getting them home. Arrax was frightened of Vhagar (a larger and more menacing dragon) and the fear the felt by Luce. After Vhagar kept attacking them due to Aemond’s ignorance of Vhagar’s temperament, only then did Arrax blast the fire towards Vhagar. He acted out of his own accord, Luce didn’t want that. He scolded Arrax the moment it happened. Arrax simply reacted in a way that is conducive to a dragon of his size and age.
The issue is with the antagonist ways of Aemond and not understanding Vhagar is her own being. He has no knowledge of Vhagar and her initial purpose. Vhagar’s age and again, temperament is something to be noted. She was born and bred for battle, she was used to hunt and rain down hell. She is the only remaining dragon from Aegon’s Conquest. That fire from Arrax is a reminder of the carnage and war days, especially from Dorne.
Baelon and Laena are the only riders of out of Vhagar’s 4 that didn’t use her for battle.
Not even Daenerys provoked her dragons to battle unless she really needed to. and when she did, she only used Drogon. But, even Drogon is not exempt for acting on of his own accord. Example of that is when he killed that the little girl of the farmer and kept eating the sheep. He also ran away on his own while Viserion and Rhaegal stayed with their mother and were imprisoned for a deed they did not commit. Daenerys didn’t know if they would do the same crime Drogon did.
@@M.Elle- Drogon was an Alpha and therefor more headstrong than Viserion and Rhaegal. He had several times he got snappish, literally, at Daenerys. Vhagar I look at as the same, very much an Alpha. I think she was content to terrorize Arrax until he had the gall to actually attack her, then it was on, and Aemond is not strong enough(not much more than a strong beta) to make her do anything.
Nah, I think he was just scared
in 10:03 3 dragons- luck and jace and who ? joffrey?!
it could be meleys
@@PhuongHoang-nt4lt it is
It's Meleys. Rhaenys said that she was going to patrol the Gullet on Meleys
This is lovely
Nice film
I would love to ride a drag.
Can anyone tell me what dragon was there in Rhaenyra's vision while she was giving birth?
Her dragon, Syrax
It's not really a vision, it's showing their telepathic connection. Syrax was feeling the distress of Rhaenyra.
@@kedrednael aaaa i thought that she was seeing Aegon's dragon as her visions
Cool episode.
IT was a first tíme when we Can see the cannibal Dragon when deamon was singing i thought aemond was going to Ride him
That’s Vermithor not cannibal
@@thorfinn_saga oh shoot youre right but he looks real pretty
I would rather ride a dragon everyday than driving a car
Seriously tho, I really want a dragon 🐉
I wonder how the hell could they feed Vhagar
I bet in the worst cases, Vhagar would just fly off to Essos, eat a few farms worth of cattle there, or a bit further: plenty of Horses(and Dothraki) in the Great Grass Sea for example? There'd undoubtedly be farmers in the Crownlands, merely growing and breeding cattle, just for the dragons alone...
Vhagar fed herself. She was too large for the dragon pit and would stay on one of the sand dunes of KL coasts. She would go to Aemond when called for.
vhagar luikely hunted for what she could. its possible she went from hunting landbeasts and began focusing on aquatic prey too, snatch up a shark or two. why she kept by the ocean.
@@M.Elle- How does Aemond call her?
The one and only major problem I have with any off the dragons in this series is some off there roars dragons like caraxes and syrax I think sound sick caraxes has this sort off shriek with a slightly high pitched scream then syrax sounds like a very low case elephant but when it comes to say vhagar for example her roar is just underwhelming in the books she was said to have a roar so loud it could shake storms end but in the series she has a very low bellow I understand why they done this to make the dragons more realistic vocal cords on a animal that size would be very low and just loud by default not because it’s particularly dependent on there species the best real world example off this would be the dachshund small but has one off the loudest barks out off all k9’s but that small lord break for some reason bothers more I do also think they made vhagar a little to small I think she was confirmed to be around 150 meters long so that would put her wingspan at anywhere from 250 to 300 meters personally I think she should have been around 200 maybe 175 not for the sakes off her but to cement how large balerion was because if vhagar is almost the size off him then his descriptions off him being able to eat mammoths are not only far fetched there just wrong since balerion would need to be at least 200 meters maybe even 250 to swallow a mammoth apart from that I love this series can’t wait for the next season
Ceraxes has a deviated septum, which is why his roar is like that.
True , vhagar’s roar is pretty much underwhelming
@@Soyboi0_0 Syrax has a pretty cool roar.
I almost had a stroke trying to read this without ANY punctuation. XD
That is the longest sentence I've ever heard
The Dragon Pits or Keeping Dragons in a Cage is really not Helpful. It slows them and keeps them small in size. Helps in preventing nearby people or animals from being killed though. But it really stunted their growth.
Enough with ur fantasy bruh it's fiction wake up to reality and just enjoy the show
@@joselitopuzon5620 chill boomer. I'm only stating my guess in the size difference
It’s a shame really , syrax looks about the same size as it did when rhaenyra was young
@@Soyboi0_0 yup. Since years have passed by.
@@keyblade5916 Syrax was almost as huge as Caraxes in the books
Poor babies!!!😭😭😭😭😭
Adios Lord Strong, you bastard.
Who is this dragon in the scene with daemond ??
Who is Daemond
Vermithor
Vermithor, it was King Jaehaerys' mount before Viserys was crowned.
Vhagar never obeyed Aemond, Aemond never intended to kill Luke. You can see it on his face, he was completely shocked by what happened, he even tried shouting at Vhagar to stop but of course, he spoke in English and not Valyrian, so she did not listen. I don't think she would have listened, regardless.
Vhagar is the largest and oldest dragon at this time, she is a war veteran and Aemond has little to no control over her. A dragon needs to respect the rider in order to obey them, if they sense any kind of weakness they will not listen. Aemond simply wanted to scare Luke here, but Vhagar was there to prove that she is not going to be used as a tool for children's petty squabbling and that being a dragon rider is not meant to be fun and games.
It's not about that. Arrax disobeyed Luke as well because it was scared. That happened to show that Viserys was right about them controlling the dragons being an illusion.
Dragons bond but they also have their own will.
I miss Daenerys and her babies
I wanna see Daemònd ride Cannibal in S2!!!!!
When Daemon does the dragon roll call in this episode he mentions the three wild dragons on Dragonstone
The Three dragons he are referring to are Grey Ghost, Sheep-stealer, and The Cannibal
Grey ghost would be killed and partially eaten by sunfyre, but everyone blamed Cannibal, because well Cannibal, sheepstealer would be claimed nettles and would survive the dance and may be alive during GoT
The Cannibal wouldn’t be claimed due to the Cannibal being hyper aggressive and killing everything and everyone in its path.
He may also be alive because if he was born before Balerion, he could be alive, because balerion didn’t just die because of old age. He was also attacked and was weak
The Cannibal was never attacked and never fought so it pretty much sat around all the time
If he was born after he would probably be alive and hell in the Jon Snow tv show either sheepstealer or cannibal could show up,
I just want Jon to have a dragon.
You might wanna put a spoiler tag at the start for anyone who just watched the episode and simply wanted to revisit these scenes. I love fire & blood but there's a large influx of new fans whos till haven't gotten around to reading it, first season just ended days ago.
jon ended his bloodline would always be disappointed in him, hope drogon eats him!
@@winternitz_ who cares? Nobody
True spoilers are shitty
@@bbminhtri just don’t read it. Y’all are so weak minded and willed it’s insane
Daemon was the last dragonlord
So how do all these dragons die and the eggs stored? Spoiler me please.
I feel they are rushing things with this series and although we know what is to come, there should be some developments. Also some of the dragons seem like they aern't growing at all?! Drogon and even Viserion and Rhaegal where bigger than some of these dragons that are older than Dany's dragons.
Vhagar and vermithor dwarf danys 3 dragons by a lot
Saw a bunch Wyverns no Dragons.
Syrax still little cause she always caged up
Why do they use that saddle? Dany didn't and she never falls
Daenerys is the crazy one for not using it 😂😂
That's what you call plothole😂
Syrax should have been grown much larger why the hell is she the same size as last episode when she was here same pose looking just like that
Vhaegar killed her ex father in law stepson
the dragons on GoT looked so much cooler and also sounded so much more like actual dragons and not squeeching chairs, the only sick dragon in house of the dragon is vhagar
Arax is so pretty
Is it only me or the CGI for Caraxes and Melys is slightly off, compared to Vhagar's or Vermithor's?
Aryxx made a mistake by blowing fire on Vhagar.....Now Vhagar has to pay big amount of pain for punishing aryxx.....you see everything in life is a circle 🔴😇✌️
Rubrum Infernus (Draconum) > Vermithor
Dirty vhagar 🤬
Pore arax :(
the only thing that is good in the series is in the books are the dragons then they have to kill each other
Its so clearly a green screen haha. Hilarious :D
Yeah they just've needed to move to a parallel universe to film dragons there so they would look more realistic
I think that these scenes are still in the acceptable category, there are other ones in this show that look completely fake
Nos 9 000 x 18 + 18 femelles entre la 720 et la 721 au depart de la queue la dernière dix asters avans moi
Acho q essa cena foi mal feita. O arax ficou parecendo uma miniatura em comparação a vhagar
Because he was? Arrax was probably like a decade old, Vhagar is a 180 year old war dragon. it makes sense that Arrax is dwarfed by Vhagar. Arrax was basically a 3yr old toddler compared to a 30yr old football player
Why did they make Vhagar such a disgusting creature? Those blobs of leather and fat make her seem like if she was a Walrus. Did they want to make her look more creepy? Because I can't see any reason for why did they decide that this design would fit the largest and most powerful dragon in this story. She looks like a rotting carcass, not a majestic and powerful creature
Shes nearly 200 years old in this story. Its the same as the spots and blemishes that appear on humans as they age
Idk she looks pretty majestic and powerful to me. Don't tell me you wouldn't shit yourself if you saw that behemoth land in front of you lol
Just stop watching thats all. If u hate it or dont like it just stop. Dont stress urself
@@dw3134 Of course I would, but that is regardless of the outlook. Elephants aren't scary looking either, but their size makes them scary. Vhagar looks entirely different from the other dragons, the designers wanted to make her unique, and they ended up with this design. This design doesn't work for her, because it just doesn't align with her story.
She looks like if she was a monstrosity made by some dark lord like Sauron, she looks evil and corrupted or something like that. She doesn't command respect with this design, it only makes her look disfigured.
@@kieranpeck9890 Dragons are not humans, they are magical creatures so it doesn't make sense for her to age like this. She also doesn't have the same skin as humans do either
Caraxes most beatiful dragon
