House of the Dragon Season 2 has finally released its premiere episode, and the two-year wait was not in vain. Ten days have passed since Lucery's Velaryon died, and Rhaenyra is still mourning the unfortunate event. The Jacaerys have managed to win the support of two of the most potential houses, but they have no reason to celebrate as their loss is far more significant than their gain. Desperate to avenge Luke's death, Daemon makes the first move. But if you're skeptical about the ending of House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 1, scroll down as we explain it to you.

Spoiler alert: This article contains spoilers for House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 1.

After the death of Lucerys Velaryon, while Rhaenyra is in no frame of mind to decide anything, Daemon is desperate to avenge his death. In Season 2, he also asks Rhaenys to come with him to King's Landing, but thankfully she holds him back. However, the Targaryen prince is unstoppable, so he continues to follow a different plot. He knew that only Mysaria's connections at the Red Keep would allow his men to help him exact his revenge. So he promised to free her from prison if she helped him.

Daemon then hires two assassins named Blood and Cheese to assassinate Aemond, the one-eyed Targaryen prince. Although nothing has been mentioned about their past in the books, all we know is that Blood was once a butcher and King Landing's City Watcher. On the other hand, Cheese was a rat catcher who, according to the goofball, had great knowledge of the secret ways of the Red Keep. Well, now it makes sense why Daemon approaches these two for the massive work.
