In this edition of The Cast Beyond the Wall, hosts Caleb Masters and Daniel Stull return for an in-depth discussion with guests Brock Lay and Lacey to cover the dragon ride heard, but apparently not seen, around the world in season 1 episode 7 of House of the Dragon, “Driftmark.”
After the death of Laena, the Targaryen and Velaryon families gather together for the funeral and wake that followed.
