House of the Dragon Episode 8 trailer breakdown: “The Lord of the Tides”

The tension between Alicent Hightower and Rhaenyra Targaryen hit the fan in the last episode. Many boiling points were reached in "Driftmark." There is no going back now, as the sides are clear, and the characters have drawn their lines.

While witnessing an intense atmosphere, the Episode 8 trailer suggests it will be even more. The family drama comes with the issue of succession. We start with a ship going towards the King's Landing, and we cannot see any identifiable sigils. However, we can see teal bannerets that fly on board the vessel.

We expect Vaemond Velaryon to feature in this episode prominently as he heads to the King's Landing. Our guess is as good as yours, and we believe the ship is probably his. The ship can also be Rhaenyra and family.

Otto stands before the Throne and says he speaks for the King, being the Hand. It is obvious how he has wanted to sit on that Throne for a long time.
