Spoiler caution: This article contains spoilers for Fire & Blood and House of the Dragon.

When Laenor faked his demise in House of the Dragon, it was once a surprise to noth guide and TV fans. The plot veered a long way off direction from the supply subject material since, in the books, Laenor is in reality killed by way of his lover. But now that we all know he's not useless and is as a substitute alive on the other aspect of the world, what occurs to his dragon, Seasmoke?

When a dragon rider dies, their dragon is, for all intents and purposes, up for grabs to be claimed via someone else. We see this happen when Aemond claims Vhagar after Laena dies.

But Laenor is not lifeless, which means his dragon may still be related to him, right? Fans are curious what his pretend death manner for the fate of Seasmoke.

Who rides Seasmoke after Laenor in 'House of the Dragon'?

Dragons and their riders have special legendary bonds. It's uncommon for dragons in the Game of Thrones universe to permit anyone else to ride them if their primary riders are still alive. But dragons additionally seem to be incredibly intelligent and in tune with their riders.

So it's possible that Seasmoke senses that Laenor needed to depart and she chooses to bond with any person else in the Targaryen or Velaryon family.

There's also a war coming and it would not harm to have Seasmoke on Team Black, which is Rhaenyra's aspect. Even if Seasmoke doesn't allow someone else to bond together with her, she may combat with Rhaenyra since Rhaenyra was Laenor's spouse and his closest confidant.

In the Fire & Blood e book, Seasmoke does move on with a brand new rider greater than 10 years after Laenor's actual demise. The rider is Addam of Hull, who is rumored to be Lord Corlys or Laenor's bastard.

But again, House of the Dragon items a special scenario. In the books, Laenor is killed. In the display, he fakes his own loss of life. Seasmoke can most probably sense that Laenor remains to be alive, but if she sticks round Driftmark or Dragonstone, Seasmoke can be a helpful weapon in the Dance of the Dragons warfare and some way for Rhaenyra to realize an higher hand.

The struggle in 'House of the Dragon' ends up in the extinction of dragons.

Whatever occurs to Seasmoke, she, along side the other dragons in House of the Dragon, will eventually die. Yes, we all know, that is not what someone needs to listen to when it comes to a show that actually has "dragon" in its name. However, as we've noticed, the traces are drawn with Team Black and Team Green. The latter is Alicent's facet and, as we know, Team Black is Rhaenyra's.

Each facet believes somebody different has a claim to the Iron Throne. And in the Dance of the Dragons, Targaryens struggle in opposition to each and every different on their dragons. As other individuals of the circle of relatives die off, so do their dragons. The warfare ends with some dragons nonetheless alive, but the warfare is what results in the ultimate dying of all residing dragons.

Daenerys is presented with 3 dragon eggs in Game of Thrones, but the ones eggs are a relic at that point. Let's hope Seasmoke at least sticks round to lend a hand fight the war to come back earlier than her sort is hit exhausting.

Watch House of the Dragon on Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on HBO and HBO Max.
