In One Line, 'House of the Dragon' Just Quietly Retconned the Entire Plot of 'Game of Thrones'

House of the Dragon's season 3 finale finally reveals when The Prince That Was Promised goes from Targaryen family secret to Westeros legend.

Rhaenyra Targaryen is just about fed up. The castle she finally conquered at the start of House of the Dragonseason 3 has become more like a prison where she's forced to babysit her political rivals, hide from her enemies, and field complaints from the local commonfolk while they insult her behind her back. But Rhaenyra (Emma D’Arcy) knows she was born for more than this. She was meant for greatness — a belief that was passed down by her father and then reinforced by a witchy prophecy seen by her husband/uncle Daemon (Matt Smith).
