Just over a month before we return to Westeros — FI-NAL-LY — we now have more images from a series that has been ready to premiere since 2024. The first thing the trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms establishes is very simple: Dunk is alone in the world. He crosses dirt roads, small villages, open fields, always with the weight of his armor on his back and no real protection beyond his own body. There is no castle, no retinue, no shelter. Only movement.

Then Egg appears — small, bald, persistent, determined to follow him. The trailer builds their relationship through physical proximity: walking side by side, slipping into camps, watching conflicts from a distance, sharing improvised spaces. There are no speeches about loyalty. It is built through gesture.

Their destination is the tournament at Ashford. And the trailer makes it clear that this is not an elegant event: it is loud, dirty, and violent. We see wooden stands packed with people, knights lining up, visors dropping, lances lowering. Then, only impact: horses at full speed, frontal collisions, bodies thrown into the air, people rolling in the mud. In several cuts, Dunk appears fallen, then back on his feet moments later — always wounded, always returning.

It is within this space that the political weight of the story emerges. Among the faces of the nobility high in the stands, the trailer highlights Aerion Targaryen — restless, aggressive, clearly dangerous — and Baelor Targaryen, more restrained, watching everything with cold focus. The tension does not come from speeches, but from the way they look at Dunk. The message is simple: he has stepped into a game far above someone without a surname.

Dunk is warned about the Targaryens: they are now seen as tyrants, feared more for their reputation than for any real strength. The dragons live only in memory. And between the sequences of impact, quick glimpses of the tournament’s backstage appear. Everything points to a conflict that begins as an attempt at survival and ends as a test of limits. The trailer does not explain the rules of the game, but it shows its physical consequences. It does not promise glory. It promises cost.

What it shows, in the end, is this: a man without a name trying to assert himself in a territory ruled by dangerous names; a boy too small for that world, yet already trapped inside it; and a tournament that begins as an opportunity — and quickly takes the shape of a trap.

It is time to recover everything I posted three years ago about who is who and who we will see… yes, the series has everything it needs to become a success.
