The two character , Blood and Cheese — a big and brutal member of the City Watch and a ratcatcher in the Red Keep , respectively — are two killer who are engage by Daemon to assassinate Aemond Targaryen , implementing the honest-to-god and cruel punishment of an eye for middle , or , in this causa , a Logos for a Logos . The two assassins do n’t end up kill Aemond , but , alternatively , pour down someone who ’s much more innocent and undeserving , Jaehaerys , the young son of King Aegon II and Queen Halaena .
In an interview withTVLine , House of the Dragonshowrunner Ryan Condal explains why certain change were made to Blood and Cheese and their horrible interactions with Team Green . The most glaring change was the complete removal of Aegon and Halaena ’s third and youngest son , Maelor . This alteration was made because , according to Condal , there simply was n’t enough sentence to include him . He says that the first season already included the constant recasting of the children , which ultimately led to Aegon and Halaena ’s tiddler being much younger . interpret his full scuttlebutt below :
Ryan Condal : ' I imply , just very simply , Maelor ( was ) not even turn out in the storyline . We did have to compress clip in Season one to make it so that we did n’t have to recast every fictional character on sieve . We were just recasting the kid , so to speak , as we drop dead along , and part of that meant that Aegon and Helaena ’s children were jr. , as are Daemon and Rhaenyra ’s children younger at the very ending of this , because not as much time passed after their marriage to give time for all these shaver to acquire up .
The other ( constituent ) was just wanting it to be this very intuitive experience that happens to Helaena , who I guess a lot of mass would debate is the most free person on either side of this conflict and just sort of finds herself in the crossfire of this tit - for - sleaze form of punch - and - counterpunch that ’s cash in one’s chips on between the side . It feel like that was the core dramatic stop that was important to be made . '
The Changes to Blood and Cheese Explained
The events are much darker in Fire & Blood
In usualGeorge R. R. Martinfashion , Blood and Cheese were much worse in his bookFire & Blood . In the book , cheeseflower gags and bounds the Dowager Queen Alicent , while Blood muffle her bedmaid . They then wait for Halaena to bring her children to Alicent before layer , a nightly tradition . When Halaena arrive with Jaehaerys , Jaehaera , and Maelor , lineage bars the door and off her guardsman , while Cheese snatches Maelor .
In usual George R. R. Martin fashion , line of descent and Cheese were much bad in the bookFire & Blood , the book thatHouse of the Dragonis based on .
Halaena pleads that they kill her instead , but Blood tells her that “ A married woman ’s not a son . It has to be a boy . ”Blood and Cheese evidence Halaenathat she must pick one of her boy for death , and they threaten her with the colza of her daughter if she does n’t choose quickly .

Taking place about 172 years before the events ofGame of Thrones,House of the Dragontells the tale of the rise of the Targaryens, the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria. The popular HBO spinoff show first starred Milly Alcock and Emily Carey as Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower before they were replaced by Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke, who play the older versions of the characters. Also starring in the series is Matt Smith (Prince Daemon Targaryen) and Paddy Considine as Rhaenyra’s father, King Viserys Targaryen.
Helaena Targaryen is forced to make an impossible decision in House of the Dragon season 2 , episode 1 – here ’s why she went with that choice .
Another modification is that , in the show , it is unclouded that Rhaenyra and Daemon want Aemond bushed and that Jaehaerys only dies instead because Aemond is n’t found . In the al-Qur’an , it seems like Jaehaerys or Maelor were the prime target . This speaks to the show ’s less dementeddepiction of Daemon . The result ofHouse of the Dragoncan often be macabre , but , in this fussy scene , it ’s in all likelihood for the best that the show did n’t adapt the script faithfully — the menace of ravishment and the diabolical teasing from blood line and Cheese might have made an already unsettling scene even darker .
