🏰 Meet the Villain from A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

We’ve been covering A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms pretty heavily on the site and in the newsletter, but we can’t help ourselves! We love everything about this show, including the utterly evil-for-evil’s sake villain Aerion Targaryen. If you’ve been following this Game of Thrones prequel as closely as we have, you’ll definitely want to check out our interview below with “Brightflame” himself, Finn Bennett.

Once you’ve had a chance to watch the latest episode, don’t forget to check out our review of “The Squire,” in which we finally get some backstory for Egg. We also wanted to explore a bit further the hints we saw about Egg’s heartbreaking future with the episode’s reference to the Tragedy at Summerhall, a powerful moment for those familiar with the lore. It’s another deep dive, as usual — enjoy!
