![]() ![]() Carice van Houten reminds us that Melisandre was alive at the time of House of the Dragon ![]() She was born on Essos during the height of the Valyrian Empire, and would have been around 200 at the time of House of the Dragon. In fact, preserved by the Lord of Light, she was around 400 years old by the time of Game of Thrones. Melisandre looked like a young woman, but we eventually learned that she was much older than she let on. HOWEVER, there is one character who could conceivably show up in House of the Dragon without the show needing to bend time and space: Melisandre, the red witch who helped Stannis Baratheon and then Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen fight the White Walkers. No Jon Snow, no Tyrion Lannister, and obviously no Daenerys. That means there’s zero chance of familiar cameos. As the opening crawl on House of the Dragonreminds us, the new show takes place “172 years before Daenerys Targaryen.” We have a whole new set of characters born well over a century before the people we remember from Game of Thrones. ![]()
