‘The Targaryen who sits the Iron Throne is not just a king or a queen. They are a protector of the realm,’ Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen (D’Arcy) is heard contemplating at the start of the trailer.

‘Now I find myself in an impossible position,’ Rhaenyra continues.

As King Aegon II Targaryen (Tom Glynn-Carney) approaches his throne, D’Arcy muses, ‘The enemy usurped my throne.’

Rhaenyra peruses a collection of swords before confidently brandishing one.

Meanwhile, at a tense meeting, King Aegon asks as he casually points his knife about to the others, ‘What are we going to do about it?’

‘Proceed cautiously,’ Queen Alicent Hightower (Cooke) recommends sternly.

‘F**k dignity!’ Aegon suddenly shouts, before adding with a cooler tone, ‘I want revenge.’ 

As soldiers prepare for battle, Daemon is seen musing, ‘I did not think they would be so eager to die.’
