- Only a few battles occur in "House of the Dragon" season 2 as the series ramps up for civil war.
- The season finale teases multiple major battles from "Fire and Blood," the novel the series is based on.
- Here are the key battles that could be depicted in future seasons of "House of the Dragon."
"House of the Dragon" season two may not have been as action-packed as some fans might have predicted, but the finale seems to tease that audiences will finally get the destructive dragon war they've been waiting for.
There are only two major battles in season two — the first battle between the Brackens and the Blackwoods in episode three and the skirmish at Rook's Rest in episode four when fan-favorite character Rhaenys (Eve Best) dies.
Despite this, fans have been clamoring for more action, and the season two finale doesn't deliver on that. The episode's final scenes show multiple parties getting ready for war, hinting that season three will have more epic battles.
The episode also teases the Battle of the Gullet, after Tyland Lannister (Jefferson Hall) recruits the Triarchy to fight against Rhaenyra's army. Spoiler alert: that battle is where Jacaerys Velaryon, a fan-favorite character, dies.
If you're wondering what battles to expect in "House of the Dragon" season three, here are all the key battles left in the "Fire and Blood" novel, which the series is based on. (Obviously, potential "House of the Dragon" spoilers ahead.)
