War has been ramping up in the Seven Kingdoms for the past three episodes, and it's about to arrive in force.

"Send the dragons to war," says Rhaenyra (Emma D'Arcy) in the trailer above for House of the Dragon Season 2, episode 4 — and shots of dragons breathing fire over a battlefield are exactly what we get.

How badly is it going to kick off? Who's going to meet the Stranger? Will Aemond's (Ewan Mitchell) eye patch look just as fierce in combat as we're imagining? We'll find out soon enough.

House of the Dragon Season 2 airs Sundays on HBO and Max at 9 p.m. ET.
