House of the Dragon is a television show from HBO that first aired in 2022. The show is a successor prequel series to Game of Thrones, and is based on the book Fire and Blood by George R. R. Martin. Fire and Blood explicates a time in the history of Westeros known as the Dance of the Dragons, when conflict over the succession to the Iron Throne within the Targaryen royal family sparked a civil war. The show featured the High Valyrian language created previously by David J. Peterson. In contrast with Game of Thrones, it also featured an original writing system for High Valyrian, also created by David.
