Ever since he arrived at Harrenhal for what has to have been the best conquest ever, Daemon has been having some fairly unusual hallucinations — together with a younger Rhaenyra (Milly Alcock), a intercourse dream about his useless mom Alyssa (Emeline Lambert), and glimpses of his half-rotten brother Viserys (Paddy Considine).
Within the finale, although, Daemon has a special kind of imaginative and prescient — a glimpse into the long run, relatively than the previous. So what precisely does he see, and what does it imply?

So what does Daemon’s imaginative and prescient imply?
On condition that we’re armed with the information of what occurs in Sport of Thrones, it is fairly clear that Daemon is being proven a glimpse of what Aegon I noticed in his much-discussed “Song of Ice and Fire” dream: the specter of the White Walkers within the north, and the necessity for Westeros to unite behind a Targaryen ruler on the Iron Throne to cease them.
Curiously, Daemon additionally seems to have been given a glimpse of how he suits in to this image. Harrenhal witch Alys Rivers (Gayle Rating) has already advised him that he’ll die at Harrenhal — may the imaginative and prescient he sees of the battlefield and the useless dragon, adopted by the shot of himself falling into water, be a imaginative and prescient of his personal loss of life? If that’s the case, Daemon’s imaginative and prescient additionally makes it clear who he’ll be dying for when he is proven a glimpse of Rhaenyra on the Iron Throne.
This appears to be why he finally decides to take the knee earlier than Rhaenyra when she exhibits up at Harrenhal, and put his personal needs apart — he is been scared by what he noticed within the imaginative and prescient and, as Helaena says, he now is aware of his half within the story.
