HBO's hit series "House of the Dragon" is set to have a shorter second season compared to its debut run. However, fans need not worry as talks for a third season are already underway.

According to sources close to the production, the upcoming second season will only have eight episodes instead of the ten episodes that comprised its first season. The reason behind this decision remains undisclosed, but it could be attributed to budget constraints or creative choices.

Despite having a shorter runtime, fans can still expect more thrilling adventures from House Targaryen and their dragon companions. The showrunners assured viewers that they are committed to delivering high-quality content despite any limitations.

Meanwhile, rumors about a third season have been circulating online with some reports suggesting that HBO has already given it an early green light. However, no official statement has been released yet regarding this matter.

The series' first season was well-received by critics and audiences alike for its stunning visuals and engaging storytelling. It chronicled the rise of House Targaryen centuries before the events of "Game of Thrones."

With talks about another installment in progress, fans can look forward to more epic battles and political intrigue as House Targaryen tries to establish their reign over Westeros.

"Houses Of The Dragon" stars Paddy Considine as Viserys I Targaryen alongside Emma D'Arcy, Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Rhys Ifans amongst others. Its premiere date for Season 2 has yet been announced but is expected sometime in 2022 on HBO Max.
