Theories
Helaena might’ve foreseen Aemond betraying Aegon II at the Battle of Rook’s Rest
Helaena’s dreaming might have helped her see the unfortunate.
Helaena Targaryen is one of the rare characters from House of the Dragon whose presence has kept the audience from being split up into cliques. Among readers of books as well, Helaena is the one character that everyone loves, almost like a little sister. Known for being a ‘dreamer’ among the fans, she might’ve seen Aegon’s fate from a distance.
This figure of Aemond Targaryen also comes with a chance of receiving a Chase version of the figure, which shows a glow-in-the-dark Aemond with Sapphire Eye.
Helaena confronts Aemond
The Greens are given a hero’s welcome as they return after the Battle of Rook’s Rest, but everyone’s faces are grim. King Aegon had a brush with death, and not many know his brother Prince Aemond was responsible for it. When Aemond returns with Aegon’s dagger and enters the throne room, Queen Helaena questions him, “Was it worth the price?”
Helaena might’ve seen Aemond would burn Aegon
Helaena directly confronting Aemond might be due to what she saw in her dreams. She often has glimpses of the future, and in one of them might have seen Aemond intentionally injuring Sunfyre and Aegon during their fight with Rhaenys. At this point, Helaena might be feeling done with her family.
