The first season of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms wrapped with its sixth episode, “The Morrow,” leaving a lasting impression on Westeros fans.

Despite the season’s brevity, the finale skillfully addresses the fallout from the Trial of Seven, including the tragic death of Baelor Targaryen (Bertie Carvel).

While hedge knight Dunk (Peter Claffey) remains the series’ central figure, Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell) emerges as the episode’s true standout, offering insight into the royal family’s turmoil after the bloody confrontation.

The episode adopts a reflective tone compared to Episode 5’s action-heavy pace, exploring Dunk’s purpose and the origins of Targaryen madness while teasing Season 2 developments.

Following his brutal fight in Episode 5, Dunk is left gravely wounded and visited by Lyonel Baratheon (Daniel Ings), who encourages Dunk to travel with him to Storm’s End despite the maester’s dire prognosis.

Ridden with guilt over Baelor’s death, Dunk hesitates, believing his presence brings suffering, but Lyonel dismisses the tragedy as a necessary sacrifice in the larger scheme.

Fans and critics alike are debating the finale’s themes of loyalty, legacy, and duty, with many praising the series’ ability to balance character introspection with Westerosi political intrigue.
