Shocking Moments Preview and Egg’s Mystery Scene
The official trailer reveals shocking moments that will leave you stunned. Lyonel Baratheon appears to convince Dunk that Baelor’s death wasn’t his fault, trying to ease his guilt.
Most intriguing is Egg, who appears walking toward Prince Aerion‘s bedroom holding a knife. This cryptic scene suggests the young prince may take matters into his own hands to protect Dunk. The final episode promises emotional resolutions and answers about Dunk’s future outside Ashford.
Will Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Return for Season 2?
Fans asking if this is really the end can breathe easy. HBO renewed the series for a second season in November 2025, before season 1 even premiered.
Season 2 will adapt “The Sworn Sword,” the second novella in George R.R. Martin’s collection. The next chapter is expected to arrive in 2027, giving showrunners time to craft the story. That means tonight’s finale wraps up Dunk and Egg’s Ashford adventure, but their larger saga continues.
