Driftmark – The Cast Beyond the Wall #60


In this edition of The Cast Beyond the Wall, hosts Caleb Masters and Daniel Stull return for an in-depth discussion with guests Brock Lay and Lacey to cover the dragon ride heard, but apparently not seen, around the world in season 1 episode 7 of House of the Dragon, “Driftmark.”

After the death of Laena, the Targaryen and Velaryon families gather together for the funeral and wake that followed. Boiling beneath the surface were the years of resentment that have festered between Rhaenyra and Alicent. It all comes to a head after Aemond claims Laena’s dragon, Vhagar, and loses his eye in a brawl with his cousins

Has House of the Dragon finally achieved its first Game of Thrones-tier feud?
