Alright, so for episode 3 of House of the Dragon, titled "The Burning Mill," which aired today, here are my thoughts. My initial reaction right after the episode ended was that it felt incredibly brief, like it just flew by. The story wasn't particularly gripping, but I found myself invested in how Rhaenyra would navigate her responsibilities to her house while trying to prevent the imminent war that is being foreshadowed in the narrative.

House of the Dragon, Episode 2 gave us a lot to think about with its mix of politics, personal grudges, and complex characters. The episode’s focus on dialogue set up some big conflicts and showed us what drives the key players. Here’s a look at what we saw and where it might lead.
The argument between Aegon II Targaryen and Otto Hightower showed the growing tension in the royal court. Aegon II’s attempt to show his strength didn’t go as planned because Otto showed compassion for the innocent people hanged outside the castle. This was unexpected and made Otto’s character more interesting. Instead of being a typical power-hungry advisor, Otto seems to have a more complex personality. In future episodes, we might see Aegon II trying even harder to take control, possibly leading to drastic actions.
