Ever the dramatic loose cannon,Weaknesses Of Female Employees Who Are Promoted Quickly (2025) Aemond (Ewan Mitchell) realises he's outnumbered by Team Black's new scaly recruits in the House of the DragonSeason 2 finale — so he decides to torch a town instead.
But where is this place that Aemond decides to burn, and why does he choose that poor town of all places? Let's break it down.
SEE ALSO: ‘House of the Dragon’ Season 2 finale: What does Helaena’s prophecy about Aemond mean?Early on in the House of the Dragonfinale we see a shot of Aemond on mighty dragon Vhagar, watching on as a coastal town burns in the distance. There's a close-up shot of the flames and we hear people screaming in pain as Vhagar takes wing and flies off.
Soon, when Larys Strong (Matthew Needham) visits Aegon II (Tom Glynn-Carney) in his sick bed, we find out what's happened.
"He has gone in fury to Sharp Point and laid waste to the whole of the town," says Larys.
But what is Sharp Point, and why does Aemond specifically target that place?
If we take a look at the official map of Westeros, we can see Sharp Point on the very edge of a peninsula surrounding the Blackwater Bay. It's probably the closest mainland town to Dragonstone, which is where Aemond was flying at the end of episode 7 when he got rebuffed by Rhaenyra's (Emma D'Arcy's) new dragons. Because of this there's a clear geographic reason why it might have fallen victim to his anger — simply put, it's one of the closest places for him to burn.
But as showrunner Ryan Condal explains in a YouTube breakdown of the finale, there's more to it than that.
"Aemond lashes out," says Condal. "It's also a strategic act because Sharp Point is the seat of House Massey, who serves on Rhaenyra's council. It's a punishment to them for siding with the pretender."
So there you have it. Aemond, even in his rage, isn't just wildly levelling random towns. Gormon Massey (James Dreyfus), who sits on Rhaenyra's council is the target of the attack.
