As House of the Dragon Season 2 wraps up, fans are increasingly curious about the intriguing question: How can Helaena see the future ? The season finale delves deeper into Helaena Targaryen’s prophetic abilities and her chilling predictions about the destinies of Aemond and Aegon II.
Here’s everything you need to know to uncover the secrets behind Helaena’s visions in House of the Dragon Season 2.
How can Helaena Targaryen see the future in House of the Dragon?
Helaena Targaryen’s ability to see the future, known as dragon dreaming, has been evident since childhood. This special power allows her to foresee significant events and warn others, although her visions are often cryptic. Throughout House of the Dragon, especially in Season 2, Helaena’s prophecies have played a pivotal role in the unfolding drama.
While her prophetic abilities play a central role in the HBO series, they are not as prominent in George R.R. Martin’s original texts. In the show, Helaena’s visions often hint at major plot developments and outcomes, demonstrating her unique gift.
How will Aemond die in Helaena’s prophecy in House of the Dragon?
In a tense exchange on the Red Keep’s balcony, Helaena Targaryen confronts Aemond with a dire prophecy. She tells him she has seen him burning their brother Aegon II during the battle at Rook’s Rest. Though Aemond dismisses her words as lies, Helaena persists and foretells, “Aegon will be king again. He’s yet to see victory. He sits on a wooden throne. And you, you’ll be dead. You are swallowed up in the God’s Eye, and you are never seen again.”
When Aemond threatens to kill her, Helaena remains unfazed and states that it wouldn’t change anything. Helaena’s vision significantly impacts Aemond, especially as she explains he cannot change his fate.
According to George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, it is documented that Aemond heads to Harrenhal and faces his uncle, Daemon Targaryen, in a deadly duel. Their battle on dragonback ends in both riders and their dragons crashing into the waters of the Gods Eye, making Helaena’s prophecy true. Aemond’s body is later found with Daemon’s sword, Dark Sister, driven through his eye socket.
Why will Aegon II sit on a wooden throne in House of the Dragon?
Helaena Targaryen’s prophecy starts with a clear message: Aegon II, despite his slow recovery from injuries, will one day be king again. The reference to a wooden throne is more cryptic but could symbolize the carriage Aegon is seen using with Larys Strong as they head toward Essos in the episode’s final scenes.
