In the third season of House of the Dragon<\/em>, one of Emma D\u2019Arcy\u2019s wishes comes true.<\/p>\n

The British actor, who portrays Westeros\u2019 displaced would-be sovereign Rhaenyra Targaryen in HBO\u2019s fantasy epic, has mentioned in past interviews their desire for their character to carry a weapon and asking producer Ryan Condal to make it happen.<\/p>\n

So far in the series, which is now streaming on HBO and Max, Rhaenyra has briefly handled a blade in private. She has also spoken about swords as a symbol of authority. But the queen doesn\u2019t carry a sword on her hip, unlike most of her male counterparts.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just want to say I won that battle,\u201d D\u2019Arcy, 33, says of the status of their request. \u201cThe hows and the wherefores can wait, but it\u2019s OK to say that I won that battle \u2026 by a story means that I wasn\u2019t expecting.\u201d<\/p>\n

But this deadly addition to her wardrobe is not the only change for Rhaenyra this season.<\/p>\n

For the first time in the Targaryen war of succession, \u201cthere is momentum to Rhaenyra\u2019s campaign,\u201d D\u2019Arcy says. \u201cHistorically, we\u2019ve seen Rhaenyra on the back foot in a kind of reactionary position. In the start of Season 3, she\u2019s in a position of real strategic political power.\u201d<\/p>\n
