How does Viserys return in House of the Dragon season 2?

King Viserys died way back in season 1, and his death triggered the war for succession that's still playing out in the show. How has he returned in the latest epi💝🌟sode, then?

Well, once again, it's thanks to the strange visions Daemon has been having at Harrenhal, courtesy of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Alys Rivers. Daemon has already hallucinated Young Rhaenyra and his own mother (in a very disturbing scene) but this is the first time𓆉 he has seen his brother. 

Viserys is seated on the Iron Throne in the first vision and demands to know if Daemon said the words "Heir for a Day." Cast your minds back, and you'll remember that this was a major bone of contention in season 1, when, after Viserys's newborn son died, Daemon – at the time the displaced heir to the throne – called the baby "Heir for a Day" and later stole the egg from his cra𒆙dle. 

In the hallucination, Daemon is then banished by his brother, but snaps out of the vision and threatens Simon Strong, believing him to be responsible for his strange ✅thoughts. 

That's not the end of Daemon's hallucinations, though. He sees Viserys again later,🎃 this time with his late wife Aemma (Sian Brooke), too. Viserys is weeping over the death of his wife and Daemon embraces him. 

Daemon then wakes up at a table and, when left alone, cries. It seems Daemon might have finally learne🀅d the error of his ways, thanks to Alys acting as his witchy Ghost of Christmas Past for most of season 2.
