The latest bombshell from "House of the Dragon" has sent shockwaves through the fanbase, linking the past and future of House Targaryen in an unexpected twist. The revelation that Rhaenyra Targaryen’s dragon eggs are the very same that Daenerys Targaryen hatches into Drogon, Rhaegal, and Viserion, has ignited passionate discussions and theories among fans.

Bridging Two Eras

"House of the Dragon," set nearly 200 years before the events of "Game of Thrones," has taken a bold step by connecting its storyline directly to the original series.
