Game of Thrones' final season is now halfway. Last Sunday brought the longest episode of the series; Episode 3, "The Long Night", recorded a record time of 82 minutes, beating even the latest episodes yet to come, which also exceed the normal running time of the GoT. These 82 minutes included almost exclusively the biggest battle scene of the series so far, as the night king's forces finally arrived to engage the Battle of Winterfell (and Jon's dubious battle plan).
A key element in this major fight was the role that dragons played (or did not play). After a bit of training earlier in the season, we could see Jon on Rhaegal and Dany on Drogon. At one point, the two players face the king of the night and Viserion, then Rhaegal disappears. And just as with Ghost, despite the long duration of the episode, we still had to wonder about the fate of Jon's pet companions after the fights ended, as they were visibly absent from most of the scenes at the scene. 39; screen. If you are all trapped, do not miss our eggs and Easter references from Episode 3 – there were plenty of them, and saw the problems that some people had with the level of darkness and visibility , you may have missed something. 19659003] The third episode of the last season of Game of Thrones, The Long Night, finally brings the shock that we have been waiting for since the beginning of the first episode of the series. The army of the dead of the night king crosses the wall, and the forces of the living, led by Daenerys, Jon Snow and Dany's two dragons, decide to make every effort to stop them once and for all. the Battle of Winterfell. [19659004] It was a fierce battle that caused a lot of casualties – check out our full summary of all those who failed to get through, and our badysis to find out if The Long Night was successful in achieve its goals of resolving the conflict with the Night King. But once the dust settled, there were still some unanswered questions. Ghost, the werewolf of Jon Snow, disappeared in the first charge, leaving everyone online asking what happened to him (here's the answer). And then there was Rhaegal, the dragon ridden by Jon, who fell in the middle of the battle and was never seen again. So what happened to him?
Although Rhaegal looked very painful in the middle of the battle, we know for sure that he survived the Battle of Winterfell. That's because it appears, albeit very briefly, in the HBO teaser for episode 4.
Rhaegal and Drogon, the dragon rides Daenerys, were a powerful force in the battle until a blizzard destroyed all visibility. the dragons had trouble helping the fighters on the ground. When the King of the night appeared riding the Viserion of the undead, the situation became even more eventful.
Viserion and Rhaegal literally crashed into the blizzard, the cursed dragon trying to cook Rhaegal's rider while they mutilated themselves. The Night King took the opportunity to try to attack Rhaegal and put him to the ground for good, just as he did with Viserion during the episode of season 7 Beyond the Wall. But Rhaegal finally won the fight, tearing a piece of Viserion's face, and the night king and the evil dragon both fell to the Earth. But Rhaegal's injuries were rather serious and he also fell to the ground – he crashed, throwing Jon off his back, and that's the last time we saw the dragon.
The question that remains now is: what condition? Rhaegal will be ahead. Like other Daenerys forces, Rhaegal was beaten during the battle with the king of the night, Viserion making a huge cut in his chest. It also looks like he has tears in his eyes in the teaser (though it's hard to tell the dragons from any distance). It is very likely that it will not come back 100% for some time, which could call into question its role in the battle for the Iron Throne at King's Landing.
Daenerys has already lost much of his military power. until his last attempt to defeat Cersei Lannister, and the dragons have always been his ace in the hole. We saw it do a lot with one dragon, but a weakened Rhaegal (and maybe Drogon) will definitely be a failure.
