The House of the Dragon<\/em><\/a>Season 3 teaser may be full of fire, but watching it still gave me chills.<\/p>\n

I can’t pinpoint what, exactly, triggered the goosebumps. Was it the shots of the long-teased Battle of the Gullet? The return of House Stark, who made a brief cameo in the Season 2<\/a> premiere? Or maybe it was Vhagar<\/a> landing in Harrenhal<\/a>? (Fire and Blood<\/em><\/a>readers, if you know, you know.)<\/p>\n

Either way, the teaser sets a fiery stage for what’s to come in Season 3. Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) continues her fight for the Iron Throne, with the help of allies like her uncle-husband Daemon (Matt Smith) and Sea Snake Corlys Velaryon (Steve Toussaint). Meanwhile, her half-brother and Prince Regent Aemond (Ewan Mitchell) holds King’s Landing. His brother, King Aegon II (Tom Glynn-Carney), has fled the Red Keep following Aemond’s murder attempt, and he now seeks revenge.<\/p>\n

Throughout all this Targaryen in-fighting, Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) hopes to appeal to Rhaenyra following her offer of a truce in the Season 2 finale<\/a>. Will these old friends turned foes find a way to put a stop to the war for good? Or will all of Westeros burn?<\/p>\n

Based on the teaser, which is brimming with flames, draconic destruction, and every Targaryen and their mother letting out anguished cries, the latter option seems more likely at this point. For a smidgen of comfort amidst this civil war, might I suggest whistling along to the Knight of the Seven Kingdoms <\/em>soundtrack<\/a>? It’s as close to Westerosi comfort as we’ll get for the next few months.<\/p>\n

House of the Dragon <\/em>premieres June 21 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.<\/a><\/p>\n
