House of the Dragon season 2 told a deeper story through its dragons
Briefly

The show stresses that dragons are used not only as weapons against external enemies, but also to maintain House Targaryen's legitimacy through the implicit threat of violence.
House of the Dragon aims to evoke empathy for the dragons, showcasing them as victims of battles they did not choose and drawing parallels to real-world environmental collapse.
Numerical advantage and the quality of dragons are highlighted as crucial factors in the Targaryen civil war, where having a dragon symbolizes strength and protection until a bigger dragon emerges.
