Breaking down House of the Dragon’s many new children and parents

time jump is House of the Dragon It tells the story of a tumultuous moment in Targaryen history. None of these time his jumps are as significant as Episode 6 of Decade Leap. Kings has had many changes in his landing while the show was skipped, but one of his changes that may confuse viewers is that there are so many in the form of Aricent, Laenira, and Damon’s children. is that a new character has been added.

To help you keep track of the six children featured in this episode (including five new ones), here’s a family breakdown for each of Rhaenyra and Alicent.

Jakaeris Bellarion (Leo Hart)

Jace is the eldest son of Rhaenyra and Laenor, or the eldest son of Rhaenyra and Ser Harwin Strong, depending on who you ask. Despite Aegon’s size and age advantage, this episode sees him nearly defeating Aegon Targaryen in a match with a wooden sword.

Lucerys Velaryon, also known as Luke, is Rhaenyra’s second child and is largely unremarkable in this episode. very similar to Unfortunately for everyone involved, this ‘coincidence’ was noticed by literally everyone at King’s Landing and cast doubt on Luke’s legitimacy.

Geoffrey Bellarion (baby)

Born at the beginning of Episode 6, Joffrey is Rhaenyra’s youngest child and only a baby so far, so in his own words, Joffrey is rather unremarkable. I have. Joffrey was named after Raynor’s dead lover who was beaten to death at his wedding by Laenira’s ex-lover, so there’s a lot going on there.

Children of Aricent

Aegon Targaryen (Thailand Tenant)

Aegon is one of those kids who is unfamiliar with this episode, having seen a bit before time skipped. Eldest son of Viserys Targaryen and Aricent Hightower. Anyone who knows even a little bit about Targaryen history knows that Aegon is a bold name to give a child. The name of the first king of the Westerosi dynasty, Aegon, always connotes royal power won (or conquered). Unfortunately, unlike The Conqueror, the version of Aegon we see in this episode is mostly a weird, spoiled brat.

Aegon’s younger brother Eimond is Aricent’s second son. Think of him as the Prince Demon of this family.As you can see in this episode, Emond has no dragons. This is the fact that he spends much of his young life very self-conscious.

Helena Targaryen (Evie Allen)

Helaena, the second oldest of the Alicent children, is a strange girl who in this episode plays with a large bug and counts its paws.

Children of Damon

Baela Targaryen (Shani Smethurst) and Rayna Targaryen (Eva Ossey Garning)

We don’t get much out of these two in this episode. They are the children of Damon and his second wife, Laenabellarion.
