We're used to Game of Thrones taking us to some seriously twisted places, and thus far, House of the Dragon is doing the same thing. That was evident from last night's fourth episode as it saw Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen pay a visit to a pleasure house where they got...close.
After a night exploring Dragonstone, Rhaenyra gave in to her baser instincts and started making out with her uncle. Seeing as the Targaryens are all about keeping their bloodline "pure," a little incest isn't exactly a shocker, though it was shockingly Daemon who realised what they were doing was wrong.
Making his leave before anything further could happen (that's how it seems, anyway, though the show definitely leaves some abiguity when it comes to how far they went), a frustrated Rhaenyra ended up seducing Ser Criston Cole, a member of King Viserys's Kingsguard.
While she manages to keep that a secret, Otto Hightower (the Hand of the King), reveals to Viserys that his daughter and brother were seen "coupling" in the pleasure house, promoting the King to send Westeros' version of the morning-after pill her way. That came in the form of some tea, and fans have had plenty to say about this development on social media.
We don't know if Rhaenyra drinks that concoction - or even if she's pregnant - but Daemon has asked for Rhaenyra's hand in marriage, suggesting things will only get messier from here.
"Wed her to me. When I offered up my crown, you said I could have anything," Daemon told Viserys last night. "I want Rhaenyra. I'll take her as she is, and wed her in the tradition of our house. Give me Rhaenyra to take to wife and we will return the House of the Dragon to its proper glory."
