In HouseOfTheDragon Episode 4, 'King of the Narrow Sea,' sex and power prove to be more inextricable than ever.
There is a quote often attributed to Oscar Wilde that says, “Everything in the world is about sex, except sex. Sex is about power." While there is some debate on whether Wilde did say or write anything to this effect, this statement has become an axiom in discussions about sex and power imbalance in our world. However, nowhere does it hold more true than in the fictional world of Westeros and its surrounding lands.
The king’s anger at the princess is mitigated by the return of his brother not as an opposing monarch, but as a willing subject. Contrary to what the episode’s title suggests, Daemon isn’t holding on to his title of King of the Narrow Sea. Instead, he bends the knee to Viserys and relinquishes his crown of bones, earning back his place in court after being banished to the Vale.
Alongside Daemon, Rhaenyra flees the Red Keep through a secret passage and learns about the pleasures the nights of King’s Landing have to offer. She drinks cheap booze, has fun with acrobats and fortune-tellers, and watches a satirical play that reveals a lot about what the people truly think of having an heir as their future queen. But the real high point of this family escapade is at a brothel, in which Daemon shows his niece that there is more to sex than just making royal babies.
