spinoff,, is focused on House Targaryen and the political intrigue surrounding who sits on the Iron Throne, there’s another fiery element to the prequel series that cannot be overlooked: the dragons.Based on George R.R. Martin’s, the series, which is set 200 years before the events of the original series, follows the in-fighting and drama surrounding a battle of succession.
It’s also set at a time when dragons -- and there are 17 in total -- were massive and formidable assets, all but guaranteeing the Targaryens’ continued reign over King’s Landing in Westeros. As co-creator and executive producer Ryan Condal tells ET, “They’re integral to the show. They’re sort of inextricably linked to this story, particularly where it goes.” While it’s unlikely the series will see all 17 appear on screen (“I can’t promise that”), Condal says “that you’ll see a majority of them.” “The trick with this is to use the dragons as a storytelling device.
It’s not just raw spectacle and dragons for the sake of dragons. They are a part of the story, they are the source of Targaryen power and supremacy, they’re a tool of deterrents and of fear, and eventually, they become a tool of war,” the showrunner continues.
“And how those tools of war are employed is a big part of how the story is told and where the story goes.”He adds, “Insofar as that goes, the dragons play an extricable part in the show. You will see them being used to drive the story forward and not just flying around because we can.” With that said, here’s a look at the dragons expected to be seen on and a breakdown of their relationships with their respective dragonriders, as detailed by stars Matt Smith (Daemon Targaryen), Milly Alcock (Rhaenyra Targaryen) and others.
