House Of The Dragon Season 2: Helaena’s Worst Dragon Dream and The Shepherd Breakdown

[@emergencyawesome]

Here's my House Of The Dragon video for Helaena's new Dragon Dream and The Shepherd. Lots more coming this week! Here's my House Of The Dragon Season 2 Episode 7 Trailer video too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYeQZ5ZqrM16n9k

I believe larys true motive was the complete extinction of dragons.

Hi! Thank you for the videos. ❤

[@drsavage3262]

I feel so bad for helaena more than any character in this show. She legit knows whats going to happen by being a dreamer. Literally everything! Thats so much torture 😢 poor girl.

[@plantbasedministries9233]

Then why doesn’t she use her words and let her family know.

[@h33-q8w]

Yeah but she doesn't KNOW she knows what's going to happen haha. Just weird shit she sees not like an accurate vision of aegon getting burned alive by vhagar.

[@tinaplunkett8795]

@@plantbasedministries9233it can’t be easy to understand the dreams/visions. Could present in different ways?

[@tinaplunkett8795]

They could bid make sense maybe? Or they only come in flashed Or only when she is looking at insects and that’s when the knowings come? May not make sense? And her whole life no one has been listening Just thinking she’s odd

[@nicholasarends41]

I don’t think she knows what’s going on. Seems more like she sees things and doesn’t know what’s she’s looking at.

[@eggymart6035]

as soon as I saw that arm come off I was like "yup that's the shepherd"

[@Mai2708]

I was thinking the exact same thing! 😀

[@wynonasbigbrowndragon6121]

I'm actually surprised that I didn't immediately think the same thing. They made a point of showing that guy lose his arm. I guarantee when they debut The Shepherd, the pre-episode flashback is gonna feature that scene

[@jackiegrace5167]

What about this shepherd

[@wynonasbigbrowndragon6121]

@jackiegrace5167 he's gonna play a major role later in the story, but the cliffsnotes and spoiler free version is that he's a preacher with one hand that doesn't like the noble houses. Feel free to Google more if you wanna spoil some parts of the show on yourself 😂

[@pjg179]

Makes sense 🤔

[@richtang4946]

I really wished Healena stayed at oldtown with his brother daeron so she can stay away from all this she doesn't deserve this

[@emergencyawesome]

She's a very tragic figure in the dance of the dragons.

[@SilentHotdog28]

Agreed, I wish she had have married Daeron instead. He appears to be much more kind than their 2 brothers and would have treated her much better. Or marry Jacerys (Rhaenyra's son) because he did get along with her, they were even dancing together celebrating and joking with each other.

[@KrakenOnKrack]

Yea they’re following the books. The shepherd was such an interesting character that had such a huge impact on Targaryen history

[@emergencyawesome]

He'll likely be a much bigger character in season 3. I think he's only meant to be a tease this season.

[@cherylbaxter8986]

​@@emergencyawesomethat won't happen till like season 4 at the dragonpit an the shepherd

[@kath1626]

No matter if you're team green or team black, I guess we all rally together where Helaena is concerned. She's the only innocent in all of this and she deserves none of what's happening to her. 💔

[@matijajuric5479]

What do you mean the only innocent? Luke, jace, baela and her lil sis... Corlys..rhaenys.. her new gf sonoya mizuno etc

[@kronoscamron7412]

Black here ,i agree...she had no hand in this...

Ser Laenor Velaryon died E3 Burning Mill... Mysaria and Rhaenyra are out on the castle allure discussing a price for saving the Queen's life. In the distance Seasmoke is flying around squawking, screeching and performing arial acrobatics.... M: Are they always like this? R: Seasmoke my late lord husband's dragon... he has grown restless of late.. we cannot know why. M: Maybe he's lonely? Not just lonely per se, but expressing anguish in knowing his rider was killed/dead. (Ser Laenor Velaryon was robbed for his money and killed in the process, across the Narrow Sea somewhere in Essos.) Seasmoke sensed his death and went on to choose another rider, Addam Hull.

Yep!

[@jdv4623]

Its a massive shame all the simple minded ooga booga’s are rating it 1/10 cause there weren’t any flashy or firey death scenes and big action set pieces. Really not appreciating the set up happening

[@SkiesEye]

Finally read the book up till the battle of the god's eye, was surprised how different it was more than just personalities of characters. There's like almost no way the story can play the same way in the show excited and curious to see what they do here

Protect Haleana at all cost 🙏🥺

[@MADGUNSMONSTER]

Even though she's a Green, i feel sorry for Helaena's, as she witnessed an absolutely horrible atrocity. She's weird, but quiet, sweet, and wouldn't hurt a fly (especially as she likes bugs).

Thanks! My Episode 7 video will post sunday night!

It will be interesting to see if Otto retirns. After Aegon dismisses him in the books, we dont ever see him again, iirc.

He's not done in the story, but we'll see if he returns this season or season 3.

[@h33-q8w]

I don't think he makes it back to Kingslanding until rhaenyra is in power. 😅 So obviously not till he dies

[@elirobertson5113]

hi Emergency Awesome

[@Connor.SG-1Ring]

My first assumptions were that the Shepherd may have been among the people who got their hands chopped off by Daemon's Gold Cloaks, during the first episode. The would give more than enough reason for someone to fester long lasting hatred towards the royal family. Especially the side who are associated with Daemon.

[@Elactyrl9343]

Why is Cole an idiot? For somone as young and out of his element as hand, he’s kind of killing it? What has he done wrong beside parading the dragon head around? Sending Aryk to kill Reyneara almost succeeded and was brilliant! If Masenya(I think her name is,) the White Worm, hadnt warned the other brother, the war would be over. Not to mention, being hand under the idiotic fool Aegon then his more capable but still very hard to deal with brother, I don’t see where Cole has made very many mistakes.

[@Galactus99]

+ the whole Rooks Rest subterfuge to draw out the Blacks dragon was kinda brilliant. Although I think Aemond had some input as well, it was a rather strategic master plan. The problem with it was King Aegon got his stupid ass involved and Aemond took advantage of the opportunity to kill a king (big lol) so he held off with Vhagar. If Aegon hadn't shown up with Sunfyre they would have pulled off a brilliant chess move without suffering so many losses. Ultimately a calculated loss, that put Aemond in control as Regent. So I agree Cole has demonstrated he's not an idiot. Just a jilted pissy pants because Rhaenyra shot him down.
