The incest scene shown in Daemon’s nightmare in House of the Dragon Season 2 Episode 5 left the community shaken. We reached out to director Clare Kilner to get some answers about the same, and she was more than happy to clear our doubts.

Question: Hello Clare, can you please tell us if, in Daemon’s latest Harrenhal nightmare, he wasn’t aware that it was his mother… till Alyssa Targaryen called Daemon her favorite son?

Clare: Yes, he had the shocked realization when she said ‘My favorite son’.

This shocking revelation adds another perspective to Daemon’s nightmares, as it is noted in Fire & Blood, Alyssa died when Daemon was really young, and he does not even remember her face. Is it Alys Rivers’ doing?
