Everyone knows how House of the Dragon has to finish during its fourth and final season. The novel Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin tells everyone who ends up on the Iron Throne and how the Targaryen dynasty continues after the Dance of the Dragons. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms makes it clear that Targaryens are still on the throne almost 100 years later.
Ryan Condal Thinks Alicent Should Be Queen of Westeros on ‘House of the Dragon’
During an interview with Empire, Condal shared that Alicent is the one he would pick as the Queen of Westeros. She has been prominent from the very beginning of House of the Dragon, initially as Rhaenyra’s best friend and then as her stepmother and enemy.
Condal noted that Alicent has “seen it all.” While she doesn’t ride a dragon, that could be a powerful element in why she would be a strong leader. She is stable and focused on making Westeros a good place to live. He shared, “But I think where she is now, where we find her now in the story, and certainly where I think she’s going, she’s a person that has the proper experience and training to make the right choices.”
Even though she has had her vindictive moments, she has learned a lot about herself and about life in the most recent seasons. Sure, there are going to be some shocks after the events of the House of the Dragon Season 3 finale, but Condal continued, “We have seen her let go of vindictiveness, in a way that other people seem to double down on it as things get darker. And that’s where I think you get to see the real true nature of a character.”

She did offer some sound words of advice to Rhaenyra, despite them seeming to be enemies. However, readers know how the story plays out. While Condal has made some major changes to the Fire & Blood story, there are only so many that he can make without completely changing the story for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and what has already been set for House of the Dragon.
House of the Dragon Season 4 will be the last, and it’s slated to premiere in 2028.
