The final episode of Game of Thrones prequel House of The Dragon had everything that makes the franchise so special, amazing sceneries, beautiful sets, detailing in costumes, heartrending performances, and of course, the dragons. The tenth episode not only introduced us to the Black Council, but also to a new dragon, and not just any dragon. We see a brief glimpse of the Bronze Fury, Vermithor, the third largest dragon in Westeros to ever exist, after Balerion and Vhagar themselves. However, the most heartbreaking scene in the episode is Vhagar killing Luke and Arrax, and we have another look at how it was filmed.
A new behind-the-scenes video that recently surfaced on Reddit shows how Lucerys’ last ride was filmed. It appears that the sequence being filmed is the one where Luke hurriedly leaves Storm’s End trying to get away from his bully, his uncle Aemond Targaryen.
In one of his earlier interviews, Condal explained, “When Luke shows up, he is surprised to see that Vhagar is parked outside. But he’s been sent in peace, and he’s trusting in the “respect guest” rights, and all that goes to hell in the world of Game of Thrones. It’s really a bullying sequence, it’s a chase sequence, a torture sequence, where Luke is trying to escape. No real hope of Arrax fighting Vhagar and anything good happening at the end of that.”
